Froggy, you have an email! Thanks for mentioning email. I cleaned up page after page after page of email. Omaha Steaks and Pinterest have been informed to take me off their mailing list. Seriously, 5 or 6 emails a day from both of them is a bit much.
Good Morning Surfie, The rain must be such a treat. And a wonderful change from the heat. We are up because of the cat. But he eats and goes for a nap. Froggy was up and she went back to bed. That leaves me here all alone. Many times, once I get up, I just stay up. No great plans for today.
Because of the Zimmerman verdict, which I believe was correct(self defense), Froggy doesn't want me to go anywhere today in case there are riots, etc. But there are plenty of projects around the house... like you, I could do laundry.
Yes, we live close to the black part of town, we're 2 blocks from the local methadone clinic, and we have way too many street people out and about doing odd things. Sissy is 72 years old and I keep her inside on 'interesting days' All she'd need is someone pushing her over and she'd break a hip or something--or worse. Seattle has a lot of unusual crap happening on their streets for some reason...
It's already started. I just read of a 78yr. old man in East Toledo who was severely beaten by 7 youths, black and while, aged 11 - 17. http://www.reagancoalition.com/articles/2012/20120405004-trayvon-martin-revenge-beating.html
Two bystanders stepped in to save him or he would likely have been killed.
Wog, please be careful and wait till things calm down. Pray for our country.
Zimmerman Prosecutor Angela Corey Criminally Indicted By Citizens' Grand Jury For Allegedly Falsifying Arrest Warrant And Complaint
"OCALA, Fla., July 2, 2013 -- /PRNewswire/ -- Florida State's Attorney Angela Corey has been indicted by a citizens' grand jury, convening in Ocala, Florida, over the alleged falsification of the arrest warrant and complaint that lead to George Zimmerman being charged with the second degree murder of African-American teenager Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Florida.
The indictment of Corey, which was handed down last week (see www.citizensgrandjury.com), charges Corey with intentionally withholding photographic evidence of the injuries to George Zimmerman's head in the warrant she allegedly rushed to issue under oath, in an effort to boost her reelection prospects."

SUSAN WHO? Susan Rice Finally Has Her Perfect Job: Head-Knocker in Chief Obama's new national security advisor has sharp elbows, a tart tongue, and a taste for the shadows
After four and a half years of playing the diplomat, Rice finally has a job that fits her sharp-elbowed personality. She'll no longer need to pay so much attention to the public niceties of diplomatic life. She won't have to worry as much about awkward leaks from loose-lipped foreign colleagues. And she'll have greater freedom to unlock her inner bulldozer as the president's head-knocker-in-chief.
"During her stint at the United Nations, Rice earned a reputation as a whip-smart, energetic, abrasive, charming, funny, combative, and frequently undiplomatic force. Her profane denunciations are so much a part of her public identity that she frequently jokes about them at public events. In December 2010, her staff produced a video skit in which she blurts out the f-word four times -- the sound is bleeped -- as she seeks to rally the U.N. Security Council in a mock campaign to eliminate bedbugs on the U.N. premises. One Security Council ambassador once quipped: "Her favorite word is bullshit."
I just spent an hour in the sun pruning my rose bushes. The bees were attacking me, so I let them win and retreated to the house.
Yesterday, I was pleasantly surprised to see that justice prevailed. Those 6 jurors are very brave women!
Here is my favorite "tweet" of the day. It's from Larry Elder: Hey @Brithume, somebody tell Al Sharpton the bank's on the line. His race card has expired.
Hope everyone stays safe, and has a great day. Love you all.
Hi Paget, Tell us about your roses. What colors? How big are the bushes? Roses are so pretty. I was never very good at growing them. But our snapdragons are blooming like crazy. I go down everyday to look at them, water them, and pick off the old blooms. Bees love them! So, like you, I try to be careful.
Froggy yelled a lot of HOORAY's when the Zimmerman verdict came in.
I don't know how to tweet, but I signed up 2-3 years ago. Can I tweet from my computer? I don't text from cell phone. Actually, I never tried texting either.
My son is the reason I started texting. We live halfway across the country from each other. It's nice to text back and forth every day, with a good long phone conversation on the weekend.
Hi Surfie, You must be so pleased that your son keeps in such close contact.
Don't know if I can text on my phone. I have Consumer Cellular, and they have some You Tube videos to show how to use the phone. I'll check some of them this week.
Just found out that there are some NCIS on TV this evening. Really getting to like 'em.
Good morning! I woke up to thunderstorms and now lovely rain. After weeks of 100 or nearly that and hot wind, it is such a blessing.
ReplyDeleteI still have to do laundry, but am indulging myself with a whole lot of nothing today.
What are you all up to today?
Surfie, I've written you several times over the last several months--with no answer from you. Are you getting my mail, hon?
DeleteI haven't even looked at my email since forever! Guess I'll go read it today.

Do you think anything will come of it? Probably not. She will stay in office and carry on as before.
DeleteSorry for the sarcasm.

What a nasty piece of work she is...
DeleteI'm still waiting to hear who issued the "stand down" order to deny help to our people in Benghazi. Crickets...
