If the American public is scared enough to accept them he wins two ways. He will get richer and brings the government closer to his goal. I will have to find out for sure but there are reports out there on it.

He gave her Princess Dianna's engagement ring and there are already folks trying to say it may carry a curse. I think it is a wonderful thing for him to have done. He seemed to love his Mom very much.

I have been reading that George Soros invested in the Body Scanner. I will have to do more reading on this but it does not surprise me at all.

My point was that cargo and body scans ARE two different things and the body scans won't stop the terrorists. They will do without my money as long as they do this. it is an invasion of privacy and another step to Government control. I have always been against the Patriot Act for the same reason. How much freedom do you want to give up and where will you draw the line? Big Brother finally got here just a little later than Orwell thought.

The explosives found recently were not taken on board by passengers. They were placed on board as cargo. How does the invasion of a person's most basic right to privacy stop that kind of terrorism. Did you know that you can even tell that a woman has had a C-section when she goes trough the scanner. What about the radiation factor. There are some people who have pace makers and some who have medal in their bodies who can't go through them. Where do we draw the line?

Amen! They are being taught to take orders. Even at the expense of their freedom not to be touched in private places by strangers. This is what America is about now? The Israelis have the safest system anywhere. Do they do this? NO!!!! I won't fly and they can do without my money. Wonder how much this unconstitutional search may effect the economy?

Wonder if Audry would make some dressing to sell for Thanksgiving? I saw a thread where someone wants good dressing to buy for the holiday. I know Audry's is excellent.

One of my favorite new shows. I am a big horror show fan. I like sci-fi too.

I am so sorry Laurie.

I'm here. Been busy the last few days. The community lost a fine man this week and I have been concerned with that. What's up?

I agree with a good deal of what you have said. They are going to rely more on the end of the year test and make it a little harder (if I understood the article correctly). The following is from the Heritage Foundation: Second, look for legislative efforts to restore federalism in education. The conservative alternative to No Child Left Behind—called the A-PLUS Act—will likely find more champions in the new Congress. The approach would allow a state to consolidate funding from among dozens of individual federal programs and spend it on state priorities in education. Allowing states freed

They should get rid of "No Child Left Behind" because it is full of unintended consequences. This test was one of them. Ted Kennedy and President Bush were wrong about it. I could not disagree with you more. It has caused more children to be left behind. A result of the state trying to meet the requirements of NCLB.

I heard this earlier today and I think it is a great decision. I look for more decisions after the first of the year that will benefit the students.

So very sorry Pubby. Thoughts and prayers sent his way.

Nope! Terrorist blackmailers. I wonder if we could give them Pelosi?

Terrorist blackmailers. I wonder what they want?

I would like an Alabama scarf. Will prepay if you want.

You will come through it with flying colors and you will feel so much better. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Yep, and it never seems to change.

We love your store and I am interested in your program too. I will check it out on line.

Give it up friend. It is not worth the insults she hurls.

That's cause you speak our language too!

Sorry you couldn't get that from what I said. It is quite apparent we don't speak the same language. Hey gog8tors, glad we do speak the same language.

She doesn't seem to understand that life is the ultimate game. To get what you need/want out of it you have to work at it (Unless of course we want to talk about politics and how some folks get by today). It often involves failure before sucess. If parents, schools, coaches and others make you think you are successful when you have done nothing to earn said success, then you have great self esteem without really having accomplished anything. That is why some of them go to work after being fired and hurt the boss. They never learned to take criticism or failure. They have won nothing if

That is not what I said. You missed the point and I don't see any reason to try and make it again with you.
