My last post is NOT all I’m going to say today.

However, my lie pales in comparison to this picture:

Ol’ Broad has the full story. Short and sweet: the letter tells the family posing in the remains of their home that there is insufficient damage to their property to warrant any aid from FEMA.

And the Government thinks they can better judge what health care we need and when?

Pfft.

Saturday morning, I’m hopping on the “hitcharide” express bound for Anaheim and an industry conference/workshop/trade show. Yeah, bummer, I have to spend a week playing with and learning about toys. Some ‘job’, huh?

My biggest concern is our dog, Cinnamon, who has canine diabetes. Next Thursday, THMBWitW and MEG will be driving out to join me for a couple days of vacation, and our dogsitter is pregnant. I’m sure it will work out OK, but I’m still concerned.

My second biggest concern is the fact that TMBWitW and MEG are coming out to join me next Thursday. TMBWitW hasn’t driven long distances lately, and she’s not real fond of driving long distances in the first place, but I am certainly not going to subject them to the unconstitutional strip searches at the airports. The last thing anyone wants to see is a YouTube video of MEG being traumatized followed by TMBWitW going into Mama Bear mode. (maybe my concern is more for the safety of the tsa goons, knowing that they probably wouldn’t survive an encounter with MEG’s mommy)

At any rate, a distant cousin will be joining up with us for some catching up once the two of my ladies get out there.

I’m saying all that to say this: Blogging my be even lighter than my usual grueling two-or-three posts a week over the next couple of weeks. Please try to avoid going into any kind of withdrawal mode.

By the by, did you notice I’m on Twitter? over there in the sidebar – little blue button with a birdie on it … not that I tweet a lot, but in case you need to hear from me more often than I blog …

Re-election season is upon him, so now he’s going to take a look at all the hullabaloo that these peons he’s supposed to be representing are worried about:

Obama expresses concern about slowing economy*

From the article:

“…our task is to not panic.”

What a good frood he is.

1918 – Gunnery Sgt. Dan Daly (USMC) led the 5th Marines in the charge on Belleau Wood. For this action, the French awarded the 5th Marines the Fourragere:

1928 – the day before my mother was born in West Allis, Wisconsin. She would go on to marry a Marine, give birth to seven children, bury her husband and her third daughter, and then slip from us at the tender age of 81 1/2.

1944 – D-Day – Allied troops storm ashore at Normandy, on the French Coast, to begin the sweep to remove Hitler and his allies from the continent. The beginning of the end, as it were, of World War II.

What has happened in your history?
