The answer to the Wheel of Fortune puzzle was Set Sail. As the letters filled in, the only answer I could come up with was Set Bail. Hmmmmmm…
Nothing says loving
Like a basketful warm doggies snuggled together against the cold of a house where mom refuses to raise the thermostat higher than 66.

OMG!
If I wasn’t already infamous for hating to answer a ringing phone, the holiday season would put me over the top. 90% of the calls I get on any given day during December are for donations to charities. And it seems as though 90% of those charities are from Peace Officers, Police, State Troopers or some affiliation of such. It is simply overwhelming. Why can’t all these separate groups come together and form what would have to be a much more efficient charity. I am VERY happy that there are men and women willing to take on such dangerous jobs.
Corporate welfare is the real war on Christmas
Who’d have ever thought it would be the biggest corporations in America who were most supportive of the welfare state? That’s the only conclusion I can draw as I watch the raging debate over the minimum wage.
If we follow the issue logically, here’s how it plays out. Corporate America pays its workers less than a living wage. Their workers, in turn, use the social welfare system of food stamps and AFDC to enhance their meager pay so they can feed their families. This allows those in the boardrooms of corporate America to continue to bring home millions upon millions
A Christmas gift to me
This year, my Christmas gift to me is a vow to not open the door or answer the phone on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day. Just me and my animals for two days of total peace and quiet… well, except for the dogs barking, the birds screeching and the peed and pooped on pads… hmmmm. Maybe I need to rethink this.
mace your neighbor in the name of Jesus
That is apparently the new spirit of Christmas as found in the shopping malls of America.
I don’t know how she does it
Once again my dead friend Grace advances another year into old age and I stay as young as ever. It’s so sad to see your friends age while you remain forever young. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
Things I really hate
Christmas carols in November.
Useless Board of Directors… you know who I mean.
Prison Concert at Hiland Mtn. today
The question is whether or not I risk the drive on icy roads to get to the only holiday event I really ever want to attend. The women who form this orchestra have little else going for them while in prison. This brings a ray of light into the darkness. And it’s all volunteer! Costs the taxpayer nothing. What a wonderful thing to do for these women.
An idea no pr genius could ever really sell
Saw an ad on TV selling toothbrushes as great stocking stuffers. Really? Yeah, let’s see those kids eyes light up when they come down on Christmas morning and find toothbrushes in their stockings. That will make those eyes sparkle…
