Happy Thanksgiving to all!
Things I am thankful for (in no particular order):
God – For life and salvation, a future of hope
Husband – he ain’t perfect, but he loves me and does what he can to care for me
Family – even those that bug the ever-loving crap out of me
Blogger family – y’all keep me sane
Health – everything works, ‘ceptin a few aches and pains
Friends – there are actually people who put up with me on a regular basis, God bless ’em
Church helpers – Couldn’t do what I do without my faithful entourage helping me manage my class
Students – Seeing the light bulbs go off over their heads is truly fulfilling. And they amuse me.
Shelter – I have a roof over my head, there are those who don’t
Vehicle – I have the ability to move and go whenever and wherever I wish. There are those who can’t.
Appliances – I live in a house with all sorts of machines that make my life easier, and it’s easy to take it for granted
Job – I have something to do, and I have money to manage. On good days.
Clothing – I can keep warm in the cold weather. I don’t have to pick them out of a trash dump or donation pile
Leisure – I can take some down time to feed my soul and be creative.
This is only part of what I am thankful for. Please feel free to add your own.
New OC is up.
Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, the Obama administration’s health-policy architect, says he has no desire to live beyond 75, so he’s forgoing all treatment, including PSA tests. He’s entitled. But the rest of us who value life, including our own, need to know the facts. The Obama administration’s war on PSA tests is, in Williams’ opinion, “a cold-hearted decision based on cost.”… Read more »
Good morning.
Time to go check the water plants.
Do people have money to just light up? C’mon, I’m a much better cause, and I would do so much better good with it I promise!
Don’t look now but Rick Perry’s coming back to save our ass.

“Certified” comes to mind. 😛
Mom used to say that.
Crazy as a bed bug.

I can’t stop laughing.
Hey what’s the name of those hot dogs, again?
I’m going to order some.

Nope. If I can’t find out enough to decide beforehand and put on my written list, I may skip that office. That surely will not happen with President. Good lord, do I seem like I’m nuts?
It’s rained here several time tonight (so far) but been very gentle rain, it will make for good sound sleeping. After the current quilt fundraiser wraps at midnight.
The front arrived here about 15 minutes ago, and it’s already down to 64.
Rain began a few minutes ago out here and isn’t supposed to be monsoon strength going into tomorrow. It would be nice, and the newly planted pansies would appreciate it. But the forecast for the coming week looks to be gloomy, wet off and on, and in the 50s. That is supposed to be the hallmark of El Nino in… Read more »

You forgot the golden rule of the American Goebbels Media School of Propaganda 101.
Conservatives = Always stupid. A complete blithering dolt.
Oppressive Fascist Liberals = Always highly intelligent and more enlightened than Gawd himself.
#112: Great link. I love this quote: “You’ve got a guy like Ted Cruz — who I think Dershowitz said was the smartest law student he ever had — and he says some of the stupidest things I’ve ever heard,” Bloomberg said. “The only explanation — the only explanation — is he doesn’t believe it; he’s just saying it.” There… Read more »
This is real bad journalism. HEADLINE: Scientists capture black hole eating a star and then vomiting it back out No video presentations, no photos, just a cartoon, yet the headline says the images were “captured”. They have previously said that nothing can escape a black hole, not even light. Now stuff escapes when a black hole eats a star and… Read more »
Micheal Bloomberg endorses Ted Cruz and Ben Carson.
At least in my book, this is a recommendation that voting for either one of them is a good idea.
The Federal govt will obviously fail miserably on their part of vetting, but the states will have to comply to the letter or face consequences.
This kind of crap will almost guarantee an Article 5 convention. The commencement of which could cause JugEars to suspend the Constitution.
Great. Now I’ll be getting fart book pop-up ads for the next two weeks.
Black Lives Matter? Unless and until they stop murdering each other with such appalling frequency, why should anybody believe it?

I would imagine the above is in a prominent spot in El Gordo’s kitchen.

Massive cloning of food animals, what could possibly go wrong? Could this be the vector through which wide spread pestilence and or famine occurs as is prophesied?

That has to be one the funniest observations I have read in quite some time. I even showed the Missus. That only happens once in a blue moon.
I decided this morning to put some dried pintos in the pot to soak. Normally I soak them overnight, but I wanted to see if they were ready to cook this evening, so I looked on the internet to see just how long beans should soak before they were ready to cook. Well, as you might imagine, there are hundreds… Read more »
Dang, Sweetie posted it on FB, they musta saw it.
I think he is in the Sheriff transporter that just passed by their cameras! 😀
Reporting to you live from Magnolia, suspect is in custody.
Oh Harper, we know you’ll decide on the way to the booth.
Sweetie is listening to the police radio in Colorado, they have the suspect and are taking him to a transport vehicle. CNN has no clue. 😀
I’m not going to decide who I will OR absolutely won’t vote for until we get to the convention. I dunno what’s going to happen between now and then. Sure, I prefer Cruz because he is intelligence personified, while Trump is just Trump personified. But let’s see what happens.
Sweetie still goes to CNN when there is news breaking. Old habits you know. I go with the flow and use it as teaching moments on biased reporting.
BTW CBS news is calling them Reproductive Clinics.
/HEAD FAKE
Whoa my lovely wife’s ambulance company is there in mass
Another crazy gunman in Colorado.
The media are
So
Excited.
It’s high time we rescinded the second amendment.
CNN is already calling the Planned Parenthood shooter a terrist. Unbelievable.
Someday I’ll release the hate mail I got as LST moderator. If I could some of things I was told to do to myself 1. I would be a world class circus clown 2. I would not need female companionship for the more ummmm uhhhh well you know reasons.
This here turkey and cornbread dressing drowned in gravy is better than it was yesterday..
Lawsy mercy.
Heh I have been unfriended so many times for my views I lost count. There for a while for every 1 I lost I was getting two new people. Trumps is no racist.
I really don’t think that JEB! will make it past the first 5 primaries. Ditto that for Kasich, Fatso, Gilmore, Ptaki and the rest of the perpetual undercard. I figure after the first 5 there will be about 5 left in the race.
T
Cruz
Rubio
Carson
Mebbe Fiorina
I saw a FB post the other day from a black wimminz (she had her picture) who stated emphatically that anyone who supported T could not be her friend. She went on to spew about how he was a racist and wanted to bring back slavery and some other such nonsense. From my perspective, race relations between black and white… Read more »
Ditto on Jebbuh the Bush and the same goes for Ru-Ru-Rubio whom I like about as much as I like this tune which is zu-zu-zero.
I’m not making predictions about nobody and nothin’ on this earth. The Amurrican Peeple learned me that lesson.
I’m just grateful and glad I wake up each day and are once again surprised to see the sun rise and set.
I understand. I hate Jeb Bush because he is worse than his brother and he is being backed by Karl (Marx) Rove. So we are looking at more fluffy “R”ism which to me is worse than liberalism cause it is a slower death. I know what Hill is going to do, but these damn lying republicans, once they get in… Read more »
My father in law spoke of cattle being driven south from Austin County all the way to the Salt Grass during the droughts of the 30s and 50s.
That’s a long damn way to save a bunch of scrawny longhorn-dominant cows.
If only to keep from looking at that snotty bitch every day for four years.
Hey I don’t disagree.
But I’ll do
anything legal
To keep her out.
Jeb or Hillary?
MEH
Duh.
I’ll do pretty much anything to keep her out…….which is the difference between you and me, SQK.
