Jack,  No morals, no moral values ?  I will keep that in mind for later!  Do unto others, etc.
BTW, Jack, how will we determine which wars to start without moral judgement? Maybe our President can do that.  The last one did.  So be careful what you wish for.
This president won the Nobel Peace Prize-- not because he has done anything.  That is right-- because he did NOT do anything BAD etc.  
I am going to lunch and I swear to myself not to look here for a while.  I need a LONG walk!

I understand that JD. My younger one's getting married in November and I fully relate to "Father of the Bride"...all three versions.  The budget's out the window already.

Buddy, I'm not sure I understand your last post either.

(just kiddin' you Bud).

Richard...funny you bring that up...Kathy and I were just talking about that last night. We normally go twice...once in March or April and once i the fall...September...but 2010 brings lots of activity to our house.

Our daughter has found a new man and a good one...and because this is now 11 years since her husband died and she feels enough time has passed...we have a wedding coming in February.

In addition to the wedding...we have more wonderful news and is equally another gem in that our son and daughter-in-law are expecting our 2nd grandchild in March next year. We should know the gender at the end of October.

So having said all of that...we will be broke until June and we never go in the height of heat...so it looks like September. If you were planning to come and visit...let us know and we can plan around you coming to town.

Thanks RN. I always admired your style as a kid and even today. To make my self clear as a bell you have to ask your self who will run this G-ment Health Care. The same people that were experts on housing and the the stability of Fanny and Freddy. Now they are in a progressive move to take over America's Health Care. The policies being make today in Washington will insure failure to the private industry. Sally you have to ask your self why you, are your company can not go outside the state of New York for a heath care provider at a lower cost. Just one example of many to lower cost.

These so call experts in the housing industry, now health care experts. You will have to wake up each morning under G-health care and ask yourself do I feel lucky today.

Well, I think that makes it official, we are no longer a nation of laws. So the powers that be have decided that some drugs are OK, so we will not enforce the law regarding them. The previous 200 hundred years are meaningless, they will disregard any laws they don't like, since they can't repel them. Wonder what's next. Sally, if you are wondering what makes Sandy mad, its the fact that JD and I are still breathing and can form words! Yesterday you invoked morals in the discussion. I take it you propose that the federal government now become the dispenser of morals? Who's morals? Yours? Mine? The government has no morals. Morals require some kind of belief system. IMHO the federal govt should ONLY do the things that can not be accomplished by local or state govts. Secure our borders, defend against all enemies, foreign or domestic, the FAA and the national highway system. I am sure there are a few others, but you get the idea. The dept of energy is a waste of money and effort and we certainly don't need a dept of education. No govt should be a Nanny or Big Brother. Don't require me to wear a helmet to ride a bicycle,(if I rode a bicycle). Less govt is good govt!!

Richard N., those of us that spend 5 hours with Bay Watch Capps on a golf course never understand what he is mumbling about.
He missed his calling, the boy would fit in well with the Beltway folks in Washington.

JD, we always want be cautious about posting personal info on a blog like this....I keep a low profile (we never did have that conversation about my former partner of years gone by).  And I'll bet that I'm one of the few on this GB that's never tried even one doobie.

We certainly dusted off the soap boxes this weekend.  Sally, you need to learn to speak up and not hold back so much.  And I always like reading Buddy's posts as well.  Capps, I never know what you're talking about, but I like reading it.

We'll pick another subject next weekend.

I'm very sad to make this announcement, but Barney Kemp from the Class 0f 1963 has passed away.  He was a great SOCite & friend to many, including me.  Here is the note posted early this morning on 63 GB.

Name: Tanya and Gary Leverett
Country: Date: Mon Oct 19 02:26:35 2009
Comment: Dear Classmates, Brenda wanted me to let everyone know that our dear friend Barney Sonny Kemp passed away about an hour ago. He is suffering no more. There will be no funeral service as Sonny did not want that, but there will be a memorial and celebration of life for Sonny and all his friends at a later date and that will be posted in here. God bless the Kemp family.

I think our biggest problems with health care are the 2 groups who want to be in charge of running it.  Reps want the status quo, which rips a lot of people off & leaves others hanging; Dems want to throw out the entire system & have everyone depending upon the fed gov't to provide. 

No one's proposing a 3rd group who would be non-partisan & take the best parts of the first 2 plans & fine-tune them with ideas from the rest of us caught in the middle of the 2 warring factions.  And, yes, let's have all politicians, staff and their families on the same plan as us, or vice versa.

It's one thing to have fair, honest, law abiding individuals in charge of caring for our nation's health & medical needs; it's another to be limited to either private industry or the federal gov't, as they are today.
