  and this former leader of one of the hugest communist anti-god nations on earth had a funeral service at a cathedral, with russian orthodox religious leaders officiating.

  and that dynamic duo, bush sr. and clinton, were there at the funeral representing the u.s. interesting, isn't it?

  i noticed someone correcting spelling for a couple of posters.

  it reminded me of a couple of things that really bug me.. "momentarily" as in "thank you for holding.

  last monday my husband, a nice guy, after ranting for a bit about terrorists, came over to me, to kiss me i thought.

  he hit my head and then started to choke me, shouting "be healed.

  " i managed to get away from him and he kept yelling "be healed" and saying that i was bewitched and had put a curse on him.

  PBS television

  pbs has been really boring all week, another week of begathons.

  i dislike their pretense that their programming isn't commercial, while they show commercials for their sponsors like any other television station.

  i watched through a long commercial for a car, for instance, that was just like a car commercial on any other channel, before they went back to declaring with deep sincerity that public television is "supported by viewers like you.

  i notice so many of you have pictures by your posts - how do you do that?

  i really like them and it's interesting to see how the name fits or doesn't fit the picture.

  if i knew how to do it, i'd put up a picture for me, too.. i wonder if any of you have favorite websites you would share?
