I’m very tired and sore after yesterday’s physical therapy and poor sleep last night, but I have a couple more articles today. Yesterday was not quite as hot. I’m current with replies. We’ll see what tomorrow brings, because the temperatures are climbing again.
Jig Zone Puzzle:
Today’s took me 3:54 (average 5:08). To do it, click here. How did you do?
Short Takes:
From MoveOn: REVEALED! The Terrifying Gay Agenda!
Dang! I bet they even brush their teeth! How frightening!
From NY Times: At a news conference on Tuesday, Mayor Rahm Emanuel said he would propose an ordinance that would bar police officers from turning over illegal immigrants to federal agents if the immigrants do not have serious criminal convictions or outstanding criminal warrants.
Dang again! I usually disagree with Rahmbo! Portland is also a sanctuary city.
From MSNBC: Romney’s Plan for college education finance

The Romney plan is to take $millions in Pell Grants from students and to give the money to Banksters, like him.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
4:26 Got me today. I guess you are not that tired and sore.
Jerry, 4:25 I gotcha by 1 second! Kit, a Care2 member did it in 2:30 according to her post. I know she is one smart lady! She may easily have cleaned all our clocks! I wonder how Patty is doing?
You may just get your butt whooped by 2 (or 3) women again!
I may actually get one, but am waiting for Patty with spread cheeks.
Puzzle — 4:25.I got you by 1 sec today, but I'll take it.
MoveOn — PG rating for sure! People are people the world over! When one looks in the mirror, the problem often isn't other people, it's the one starring back at you!
Chicago — Finally someone with some sense on this issue!
Rachel Maddow — Yup, get paid for doing nothing — take no risk. And they want to double student loan rates too?! Only a bankster would screw students! … and all for the profit of getting something for nothing! Republican/Teabagger style!
Cartoon — I remember when I was a kid, John Glenn orbited the earth and we were all a buzz. I bought a model of a rocket and put it together with my father's mentoring. I couldn't read enough about it and I had dreams about being in space. Here is yet another milestone!
Ummm…. My puzzle time was 3:54.
That's the point, but Republicans just refuse to get it.
Exactly!
I put the same rocket model together.
I think Lynn meant she got me by one second.
How can she be so blind?!!? I'm much prettier than you are! 😉
That's true, you are. All you have to do is look at our avatars.
Exactly! 😉
