Avert your eyes all conservatives and "liberal" media

I have found it very interesting to observe the almost identical reactions of the conservatives ("media" and main line party members) and the "liberal" media (mostly TV) to the last 100 days of Obama. They are all falling all over themselves to complain about EVERYTHING that happens. They are all hyperventalating over the plane that took a "photo op". Do they really think that he knew about it and approved it? Why should he fire the guy who apparently (stupidly) approved the addition to a training motion--especially when I think of the republican operatives that have been given 2nd, 3rd and more chances after much worse errors. Now if he does something equally stupid again--then fire him. I love the duet of conservatives moaning about how he has already ruined the county by making it socialist (they need a serious history lesson) in combination with the liberals moaning because we are not yet at nirvana. To both--get a life!

Iowans are NOT hicks!!

In response to the astonishment about Iowa's gay marriage ruling, LINDA KERBER, a history professor at the University of Iowa, said she knows that many left and right coasters know nothing about Iowa or its long, progressive legal history. "You don't need a passport to cross the Hudson River, but many think you do," Kerber said. "These New Yorkers who say 'Iowa? What?', they're being very provincial. They need a passport to go to France, and they go to France a lot more than they go to Iowa." In 1847, the University of Iowa became the first public university in the country to give women unfettered access to higher education.

It is after Easter for heaven's sake!!!

It is 37 degrees outside and SNOWED this morning!!

Books, books, books everywhere



Because I have so many books still in my house from a review committee I decided to make use of some of them.  Notice the pyramid shape of the book pile, that image is on my Christmas cards.

I also have a few pictures of the Santa's that live year round in my living room.
