ok, so i think about these things..

Published Jun. 7, 2008

Y'll know by now, those who know me, that I think about things  late at night .. God, and Government, and social issues and stuff.  A lot of things I think about are seeds planted by bloggers on GOLO, that sprout as I read the comments.  And that's a good thing!  The free exchange of ideas is, to me, the single most important measure of a free society.

So today's blog is another idea that's been floating around for a while:

 

Since the formation of the Department of Homeland Defense, wouldn't it be appropriate to redesignate the current 'Department of Defense' the 'Department of Offense?'

CB -- that work, too! But 2 department of defenses seems 2 wierd, right?

Maybe call it what it used to be, i.e., the War Department?

'morning mrk! LOL Just registering a presense..? Like the headline says, just thinkin'!

I'm so sorry Brat. I know how it feels to lose a beloved pet. You are so positive. I wish I had "known" you when I lost my "Prince" to old age. He was such a loyal dog. It was so hard! I cried for weeks. He is still here with me though. Rudy has actually started to do some things just like Prince did.

Week was OK - Had to send the kity w/ concer over, but, ya know, it wasn't so bad.. It had been a good day, She had nibbled on some treats for the first time in a week, she had played w/ Stowaway and was purring (the other cats just get mad a her 'cus she's a little 'exuberant') so it was a good, positive farewell. The vet was fabulous, I held her the whole time and whispered her over. Very sad, but so right.. I took her home, and she'll always be near me, near my heart...

I left my email on your profile page. Go fetch it and then delete it...I don't need the thang to get it.

ya know what...? It'a all good! "Onward Christains soldiers..." you know the rest!

(chuckle) -- I'm kinda glad I never really got into putting pics on my blogs - that seems to be getting more pople into trouble than what they say. Makes the old saying true - a pic is worth 1K words! Ha!

I am working on my 4th and last cup of joe! How was your week? Hope it was fantabulous.

I am being stalked by an idiot. But it's all good! At least it's leaving others alone.
