LOS ANGELES FIRES AND ONE TWIT!

Thursday, September 29th, 2005

HOUSTON ZOO MEN’S ROOM RUNS AFOWL!

Monday, September 26th, 2005

I think we need a momentary break from horrific news from the Gulf. So here are two geese and a jungle fowl (what is that) that were moved to one of the men’s rooms at the Houston Zoo for safe keeping during Hurricane Rita. The whole Zoo turned into a sort of Noah’s Ark […]

SHAME ON YOU BARBARA!

Wednesday, September 7th, 2005

I am at a loss to explain the following comments made by former First Lady Barbara Bush during a visit to the Astrodome on Labor Day. I will copy from Yahoo News the exact words they reported she used.

REFUGEES AND DISASTER!

Saturday, September 3rd, 2005

First, there are many sites, blogs and commentaries that will document opinions as to the breakdown and deplorable response of our government to rescue and care for our CITIZENS along the Gulf Coast. So I wont comment further at the moment but notice the operative word - CITIZENS!
