1) I am thoroughly disgusted with President Bush! (It happens from time to time, guess that means that you can't call me a Kool-Aid drinker after all.) This story about our government giving financial aid to the Palestinians is to me, very disturbing. Contributing $50 million, with the possibility of another $100 million on top of that, to Abbas I find difficult to swallow. This is what we call in rural America, playing both sides.
2) We are headed off to Estes Park for the holiday weekend, so no blogging. This will be my first time away from my blog since I began, pray for me, it might be difficult. Plus I'm going to miss my cat, and he's going to miss me back!
3) Nettie tagged me with something I'm excited about. I'll be doing that after the weekend.
4) My friend Kim sent me an e-mail that I got a kick out of. Rather than forwarding it, I'm launching it into the blogosphere.
