he hasn't been around here lately so i think he's going to be so surprised to see how many board friends wanted to get a little something for his daughter.. i opened all the boxes!

You two are the sweet ones for thinking up the idea and going to the trouble of hosting it. I was going to PM you and ask if it arrived in time. I had it wrapped so it'd be less work for you. I chose it from the gift registry...but you know those things are not infallible, soooooo if mine happens to be a duplicate gift, the website said exchanges should be no problem. Let me know if that comes up and anyone needs any info from me.

I think another life brought into the world that can grow up borg free IS a great reason to celebrate, and I hope Dim and family can feeeeeeel the love coming from all of us!

We Are Losing The Peace

by DakotaRed in

since bush stated that the major combat operations in iraq have ended, we have been continually hearing how we are losing the peace, he has no exit strategy and basically, what despots we americans are for even being there.

here are some interesting quotes;.

quote ...seven months after the end of hostilities, things are a complete and deteriorating mess.

Interesting Lew, very interesting.

Many times it's all about perspective, isn't it? What will our perspective be in 20 years about the times right now? Thank you for sharing that with us, there are a few people I will enjoy discussing it with.

By the way, nice to "see" you again.

number 1 son and his charming lady have formerly announced their intention to marry in the coming year.. they've been visiting us for the last few days accompanied by my 6 month old grandson, charlie, a most cheerful and gurgly little boy who is guaranteed to bring an indulgent smile to anyone who catches his eye.. the wedding itself promises to be a truly grand affair with top hats and tails and god knows what else.

Little Toe,

Do your above comments about organized religion mean that you are no longer an ordained minister in one of those religions? Last time I heard, that was your "calling" in life, despite your obvious internal conflicts with religion and living the required lifestyle.
