Constitutional convention by the states to get back to the laws of the Constitution

35 STATES SO FAR...AND GROWING One message to forward! Governors of 35 states have filed suit against the Federal Government for  imposing unlawful burdens upon them. It only takes 38 (of the 50) States  to convene a Constitutional Convention. For too long we have been too complacent about the workings of Congress.  Their latest stunt is to exempt themselves from the Healthcare Reform that  they passed ... in all of its forms.  Somehow, that doesn't seem logical.  We do not have an elite ruling class that is above the law. I truly don't  care if they are Democrat, Republican, Independent or whatever. The  self-serving must stop. Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution: "Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United  States that does not apply equally to the Senators, Representatives of  Congress and the President of the United States; and, Congress shall  make no law that applies to the Senators and/or Rep

Jokes: The Baptist Cowboy

The Baptist Cowboy A cowboy, who just moved to Wyoming from Texas, walks into a bar and orders three  mugs of Bud. He sits in the back of the room, drinking a sip out of each one in turn. When he finishes them, he comes back to the bar and orders three more.    The bartender approaches and tells the cowboy, "You know, a mug goes flat after I draw it. It would taste better if you bought one at a time."    The cowboy replies, "Well, you see, I have two brothers. One is in Arizona, the  other is in Colorado. When we all left our home in Texas, we promised that we'd drink this way to remember the days when we drank together. So I'm drinking one beer for each of my brothers and one for myself."    The bartender admits that this is a nice custom, and leaves it there.    The cowboy becomes a regular in the bar, and always drinks the same way. He orders three mugs and drinks them in turn.    One day, he  comes in and only orders two mugs. All the regulars ta

Moose picture - Alaskan Clydesdale

Alaskan Clydesdale       Only in Alaska....... This guy raised an abandoned moose calf with his horses, and believe it or not, he has trained it for lumber removal and other hauling tasks. Given the 2,000 pounds of robust muscle, and the splayed, grippy hooves, he claims it is the best work animal he has. He says the secret to keeping the moose around is a sweet salt lick, although during the rut he disappears for a couple of weeks, but always comes home.... impressive!

Ann Margret - Vietnam 1966 picture

Vietnam  1966   Richard, (my husband), never really talked a lot about his time in Viet Nam other than he had been shot by a sniper. However, he had a rather grainy, 8 x 10 black and white photo he had taken at a USO show of Ann Margret with Bob Hope in the background that was one of his treasures. A few years ago, Ann Margret was doing a book signing at a local bookstore. Richard wanted to see if he could get her to sign the treasured photo so he arrived at the bookstore at 12 o'clock for the 7:30 signing. When I got there after work, the line went all the way around the bookstore, circled the parking lot and disappeared behind a parking garage. Before her appearance, bookstore employees announced that she would sign only her book and no memorabilia would be permitted. Richard was disappointed, but wanted to show her the photo and let her know how much those shows meant to lonely GI's so far from home. Ann Margret came out looking as beautiful as ever and, as second in

Joke: fried chicken

Our teacher asked us what our favorite animal was, and I said, "Fried chicken." She said I wasn't funny, but she couldn't have been right, because everyone else in the class laughed. My parents told me to always be truthful and honest, and I am. Fried chicken is my favorite animal. I told my dad what happened, and he said my teacher was probably a member of PETA.   He said they love animals very much.   I do, too. Especially chicken, pork and beef. Anyway, my teacher sent me to the principal's office. I told him what happened, and he laughed, too. Then he told me not to do it again. The next day in class my teacher asked me what my favorite live animal was.   I told her it was chicken. She asked me why, just like she'd asked the other children.   So I told her it was because you could make them into fried chicken.   She sent me back to the principal's office again. He laughed, and told me not to do it again. I don't u

Creative Calendar from a Retirement Home

A Creative Calendar from a Retirement Home What a fantastic idea.  I bet they had a ball.   A German Retirement Community did a calendar where seniors amazingly recreated famous movie scenes. The Contilia Retirement Group in Essen,  Germany made what is probably the best calendar ever with a few of their seniors. According  to German press, 5,000 calendars  were printed.  And they were given out to residents of the senior center,  along with relatives and staff. The calendar models were interviewed about the project. They said it was a ton of fun to dress up as their favorite actors. The shoot was done with professional stylists.   The photographers tried to make sure everything  look as cool as possible. The  oldest senior involved with th
