“Can someone transulate Alfredo comments?”

Thanks LDG, nice of you to help…. scares me to pieces. I have my thoughts what should be done but I would not put it on a paper trail.

Dottie

Good evening.

Enjoying reading the comments

Happy Father’s Day to all.

Avi I sure enjoy your comments
Some of my friends just retured from a trip to Israel.

I have to go first class next time as I just cannot take being squeezed in for all those travelling hours…..Where would we be without Israel eh?

I thought this was interesting. Maybe you already posted this……

The Middle East has been growing date palms for centuries. The average tree is about 18-20 feet tall and yields about 38 pounds of dates a year.

Israeli date trees are now yielding 400 pounds/year and are short enough to be harvested from the ground or a short ladder.

NIte Nite all

“Smile” it confuses people

You got that right!!!! What a video – glad Iam an independant – keeps us out of that kind of garbage

http://michellemalkin.com/2008/06/12/vote-democrat-have-more-promiscuous-sex/

this is a hilariously bad politcal ad.

Susan: Oops. Both Cacti and the Blue agave are succulents though.

Max–

tequila comes from hearts of blue agave plants-

Sunshine: it’s cooked now, so i’m here.

Avi: yeah, the server where my images are hosted went down. I was waiting to see if it’d come back, i don’t think it will, so i will have to work out a different way to host the images.

Max,

i clicked on ur name and a pop up comes up????????? do you know about that?

oh, sorry to interrupt your meal. get back to the kitchen then!

and sorry, i was just getting my meal started.

If you search for Dschinghis Khan on youtube you will see a lot of videos by them. They are popular in Japan as well, with their songs having been picked on ‘japan idol’

Genghis Khan
Hu, ha, hu, ha… hu, ha, hu, ha…
Hu, ha, hu, ha… hu, ha, hu, ha…
Hu, ha, hu, ha, hu, ha, hu, ha…

They rode the fastest horses
Left the wind behind
Thousand men
Ha, hu, ha…
And one man led the way
The others followed by:
Genghis Khan
Ha, hu, ha…

They gallopped over mountains and desert-sands
They carried desolation throughout the land
And nothing there could stop them in this world
Hu, ha…

Gen… Gen… Genghis Khan
Hey, rider; ho, rider; go, rider
Let us follow
Gen… Gen… Genghis Khan
Hey, brother; ho, brother; hey, brother
Hear us holler

Who cares where we’re going
Ho, ho, ho, ho…
There’s no way of knowing
Ha, ha, ha, ha…
And we’ll let the Devil take our souls

Gen… Gen… Genghis Khan
Hey, rider; ho, rider; go, rider
Let us follow
Gen… Gen… Genghis Khan
Go, brother; dream, brother; dance, brother
Hear us holler

You can hear his laughter
Ho, ho, ho, ho…
Now and ever-after
Ha, ha, ha, ha…
When he lifts his glass up in the air

He was the greatest lover
And the strongest man
Of his day
Ha, hu, ha…
And we have heard that
All the women fell for him
So they say
Ha, hu, ha…

And he bred seven children in one whole night
He had his girls around him at his very sight
And nothing that could stop him in this world
Hu, ha…

Gen… Gen… Genghis Khan
Hey, rider; ho, rider; go, rider
Let us follow
Gen… Gen… Genghis Khan
Hey, brother; ho, brother; hey, brother

Hey, rider; ho, rider; go, rider
Let us follow
Gen… Gen… Genghis Khan
Go, brother; dream, brother; dance, brother
Hear us holler

You can hear his laughter
Ho, ho, ho, ho…
Now and ever-after
Ha, ha, ha, ha…
When he lifts his glass up in the air
Ha… hu, ha, hu…

man! I hate it when I’m left all alone!!! talking to myself….

come to think of it…maybe Hard Working American is out trying to find Adam and help him with the other story. (I do have the right guy don’t I?)

Max – I think Susan is out hunting down one certain Adam.

Max – funny song on your website. what is the meaning of it?

Jen: You have the illegal cactus trade. Lots of collectors want the really rare hard to get ones. Especially ones that are illegal to take. Some are used to make drugs; the most famous being Tequilla. Other drugs can also be made from cacti.

John – “and oops there goes another cactus plant, oops there goes another cactus plant” ha ha

Susan: bis bald. German for ‘hasta luego!’.
literally it means ‘until soon’. But they use it in the same way as ’see you later’

Here’s an idea…….Put the drugs inside the stolen cacti. Drive them accross the border (remember, no ‘cacti cops’ and I doubt the sniffer dogs will get too close either ) and ‘voila’, got ‘em again.
We could probably also stick one or two illegals inside of one of those giant cacti and let them shuffle across the border. Just hope the DEA doesn’t decide to use one for target practice and shoots their little pricks off.

look at that night photo of the border patrol cops, They are sweating right through their uniforms! heavy jackets and all!…..wow, not an easy job. But be really hot there at night.

Why are people stealing cacti?
We ate fried cactus in Sedona…it was okay, but nothing I would want to steal!

Sunshine..thank you! BTW…check your comment on my slideshow. LOL LOL!

I thought it was “AMF”……….

Back on here for a minute!

MORE FIRES IN CALIFORNIA– Solano City– and the winds are strong!!!

Please don’t tell us Adam you have to head over there and cover ANOTHER fire! waaaaaaaa!

Adam – watch out! Susan just left the blog and I notice it was soon after your live report from the desert in AZ. lol She might be sniffing you out.

Susan – adious! (sp?)

@ all-

xxxx

hasta luego!

@FL Sunshine

Thank you kindly!
((goes to look for video, be back in a bit))

Thanks Sunshine–

Jen IS VERY PRETTY!!! And her husband is a total cutie! They should be doing toothpaste commercials–the first thing I saw when I opened the door were white, white smiles!!! Seriously!

No coffee stains!

xxxx

Socal should be with Adam– I bet he could do some great busting!

@ Patty & Susan – (taking a bow for my use of “little pricks”)

Susan – just checked out Jen’s pix. they were great and you girls are both so pretty!

LDG – it was just on a minute or so before my post. Adam is covering a story of how people are stealing cactus plants from Mexico and even in AZ. He mentioned there not being many “cactus cops” and the area as you know is so vast!
FL seems to have a few too many fish and game officials….how about we send them out there. lol (tried to go out on the dirt bikes the other day but the boys and I were stopped by one who told us we weren’t allowed to ride where we were. of course he was quick to point out that the problem was not US but rather the people in trucks causing the problems. it’s always like that – a small few have to ruin it for the rest of us)

Sunshine–

nothing like pinching a bag!

Where’s Hard Working American??? I bet he wished he was on this story with Adam….although I think some of the evidence would go missing. hmmm

@John

Heh, can you imagine being the survey caller on that one? Too silly.

FL……….*LOL* Now that was funny!

@FL Sunshine

“…saw your (A. Housley’s) story on FOX…”

Oh, tell us more of this. Maybe I can see it on the video archive page.

Sunshine–

good play on words– cacti and pricks!

@John–

Patty spews out her soda and I spew out my coffee!!

LOL

Sounds about right too!!! Let me go check Ken’s– LOL

@Patty

“*thinking i better go back to actual work*…”

hehhehhehheh

A parting thought: what if commenting on ‘blogs was work, and the “actual” was your recreation?

Adam – just saw your story on FOX about the cacti! People will steal anything won’t they?! Little pricks!

@LDG–

thanks for the link– Merida–

Patty–

Nothing gets by LDG! LOL–

Here’s something you didn’t need to know…………

http://www.wusa9.com/news/watercooler/story.aspx?storyid=72677&catid=148

@LDG–

wowie– a lot was going on at that time!! I am still reading it– and then there are the related links!
Say hello to Taft as President- 1908- LOL

First production of the Model T– LOL

Back closer to on-topic:

The Merida Initiative apparently passed the U.S. House of Representatives yesterday. It is a big deal for helping move the “threshold border” for interdicting smuggling south to the limits of Mexico.

…but it is kind of a good news, bad news, thing. Here’s a blog entry on that part:

http://michellemalkin.com/2008/06/10/good-news-house-passes-16-billion-border-security-crime-fighting-package/

usual caveat: it is a ‘blog. One with good sources, but still opinion.

*thinking i better go back to actual work*…LDG is getting technical! *L*
have a good one…i’ll be back later on!

Hi Jen–

Don’t unpack– so you don’t have to pack to come back! xxxx

@LDG and Avi–

thanks you guys– if Avi hadn’t posted his email and LDG hadn’t called him on it, I would have not found the above site which has me now reading for that decade– So from the two of you, I am now learning!! LOL

hugs to you both!

and good day again to all!

@Susan-AZ

Yes, sorry, no new pictures up yet. She’s got some taken, but no time to put them up.

re: “– Avi has me looking up some of the facts and I am having fun!”

…and fun is good!

Please have a good day out there, Susan. My best to Ken as well.

here is a fun site– Avi has me looking up some of the facts and I am having fun! LOL

http://kclibrary.nhmccd.edu/decade00.html

Greetings all
Patty-
I’ve no reports to give on Adam; hopefully he will post video of his reports.
And I have not unpacked yet…that means laundry. lol

Kathy-
I can identify with the coffee thing and traveling….I have to at least pack my non-dairy powdered coffee creamer and take it with me. Once I got the random check at the airport and my carry on bag searched…that baggie got a funny look and of course I had to explain..so now I pack it in my checked luggage. HA!

Susan- yes I saw your comments and thank you!!
Sylvia- Thx!!

@LDG–

Well the life expectancy of 1908 was close— 49.5 for men and 52.8 for women—- I passed the life expectancy for women– YEA!!!!!!!!!! LOL

xxx

Max—

Thank you— and how funny– your comment to you!

@LDG–I just checked out Foxy’s blog to see if there was any new pictures- nada!

Kathy Texas– you and me both on coffee! I have to have my coffee before I can do anything! I totally understand!!

@all–

have a good day!!! time to go!

@All

and good ‘morning’!

@Kathy in TX

Travellers-Coffee advice:
You could throw a little French Press into your bag. Just beg hot water and spoon in your grind. Heck, you might “wow” your friends if they have never seen one.

@Avi

I’ll try to be nice about this:

“i have better things to do than double check it …” — unlikely. especially if you expect to be believed on anything else you ever post.

“…its kinda funny though …” — It was a very valid comparison in concept, and yes, amusing. It was also nearly completely factually misleading.

“…its 99.5 percent accurate…” — Maybe those words mean something different to you than they do in English. Because I am calling you on that. Or was this a case of 76.43287% of all statistics are made up on the spot to justify arguments that can’t endure inspection?

Good Morning Yall I am packing for the state convention. I leave first thing tomorrow. It should be exciting. I am trying to figure out what to do about my need for my coffee, I am a brand picky drinker. I am staying with relatives of a friend(not really me at all). I am thinking I will baggy some in case I get up early and am able to make it first. They can throw my coffee out, but I don’t want to impose. I wish I had a 4 cup but we always use the hotels, geesh I hope I can get through all this of this.

Susan: It’s only because i wrote that in my comment box. So people send it to me as a joke.

I hope Ken is better soon

Max–

he is wearing one from the gym–

Yesterday he wore Jen’s t-shirt from Kentucky!

I see on your site someone left you a message and said– they are secretly in love with you! wow! You have an admirer!! LOL

Patty–

morning– I am up early because Ken is still coughing away! grrrr!!!! I haven’t had much sleep in the last few nights–more grrrr! Ken’s case manager is coming over today and I have to get a TB screen in a few hours as well!

Cheech and Chong– Up in Smoke! LOL

Susan: yeah, i saw. Which shirt is Ken wearing?

“morning Adam and All.

Susan, you are up early! Work today?

Those that get to stay home during the day and watch fox, can we get “updates” as to what Adam is doing? Pleeease
Jen is our “eye in the living room”, but i’m guessing she is still unpacking!

Good Morning to all………

While we wait for Adam’s Cheech ‘n Chong report from Tucson here’e something that may put a smile on your face.

A newly wed farmer thought it would be romantic if he and his new bride rode home from the chapel in a horse drawn wagon. So he harnessed two horses to the wagon and off they went.
About two miles down the road the older of the two horses stumbled. ” That’s once “, the farmer said. Everything went pretty good for a mile or so until the same horse stumbled again. ” That’s twice “, the farmer said.
When five minutes later the old horse stumbled for a third time, the farmer got off the wagon, grabbed his shotgun and shot the horse dead. His hysterical bride yelled at him, ” That’s absolutely horrible, what kind of an animal did I just marry? ”
The farmer just looked at his new wife and said, ” That’s once “.

Eva ….

In the end, INTERPOL achieved what Washington hasn’t been able to do for years: invent the way to “validate” some kind of bogus evidence against Venezuela that will jusfity US aggressions and possibly the next military intervention.

I checked out Eva Gollinger’s site–

Postcards from the Revolution–

she has been at it again-

….And as no surprise, the US government has expressed its “concern” over the INTERPOL report and the “ties between the Venezuelan government and the FARC.” (The US government is always “concerned” when it comes to Venezuela. First, Ambassador Donna Hrinak expressed her “concern” over President Chávez’s statements criticizing the US bombing in Afghanistan in October 2001, and months later came the coup d’etat against Chávez. Then it was Ambassador Charles Shapiro who expressed his “concern” about the political crises and the divisions in the country and soon after we had the economic sabotage of the oil industry in December 2002. Later we had Ambassador William Brownfield saying he was “concerned” about the increase in drug transit and the threat to freedom of expression, and we had street violence, an increase in funding to the opposition, and the White House certified Venezuela as a nation “not cooperating” with counterdrug measures and the war on terror. And now what?)

Good Morning Everyone.

Adam, hope your adventure is going well and look forward to seeing any of your reports on Fox.

Any chance you will be coming through my part of the state on your way back to California?

I would drive and meet you somewhere and bring some of those cookies john was talking about.

Montana

John–

was this you?

SHAWNEE, Kan. – George Chandler said he feels fine, even though a nailgun fired a 2.5 inch nail into the top of his head on Friday. Chandler and a friend were doing a project in a backyard when the nailgun hose became tangled, causing the tool to fire one nail.

Chandler said Monday he told his friend he didn’t know where the nail went, but he felt a sting on the top of his head.

They discovered that the nail was driven deep into Chandler’s head, so they called an ambulance and he was rushed to a hospital.

@Avi-

1908

Most women only washed their hair once a month, ….

Well that hasn’t changed much for me presently– LOL

i have better things to do than double check it …. its kinda funny though ……. its 99.5 percent accurate ……

Good Morning All,

Jen,

I enjoyed your slide show.

@Avi

“it was an email i got…”

‘tut ‘tut… you didn’t even check before you repeated it. I know you are better than that, my fine fellow.

@Dottie

“Can someone transulate Alfredo comments?”

Here is a brief summary of the main points. I leave a full translation to the resident experts:

***

The Security Administration Department (DAS) reports an operation by Detectives and Explosives (removal) Technicians that prevented an attempt by the 21st Front of the FARC against President A. Uribe and Governor O. Barreto of Tolima at the Head of State’s announced next visit to the municipality of Planadas.

In the investigation, DAS Detectives intercepted on the route (road) Alvarado – Ibagué a taxi, license plate number WTO 408 carrying 120 kilograms (~250 lbs.) of high-explosives and instructions on fabricating a device.

It is believed this attempt was to be in retaliation by the FARC for the the Army offensive against Guillermo León Sáenz Vargas, alias “Alfonso Cano”.

The taxi driver was arrested
(more: charges held on, associations, and connections to FARC leaders).

Motivations for the attack (attempt)
(more: change of command in the FARC, recent orders given, evidence gathered by Colombian Authorities, reason for the selection of Planadas as the location of the attempt)
***

Hope that helps!

LDG,

it was an email i got…. i would never waste my time and write that looool

Somewhere Tommy Chong is saying “Thats a lot of Pot , MAN”……..

LOL LOL LOL

i hate posting on this software! lots of glitches

My parents had 4 different set of Encyclopedias. ANimal, Medical, general INfo, Science. I loved them as a kid. Even though, by the time I was ableto use them they were about 10 to 15 years out of date. The books were of such high quality too. It’s so much easier today. I remember in High school goingto UCLA’s med library and getting lost in its book stack sub floors.

Somewhere Tommy Chong is saying “Thats a lot of Pot , MAN”……..

Max–

did you you see your t-shirt in Jen’s slide show?

John—

YOU ARE SOOOOOOOOOOOO FUNNY!!! Yeah Adam– take care of the munchies! Ice cream will melt! LOL

Jen—

thanks so much for the compliments! I hope you got to see the comments I left about you somewhere in the preceding thread!!

We love and miss you both! You and your hubbie are wonderful people and I bragged about you two today when my older friends and Ken’s mom came over! Ken is wearing the t-shirt— will send you a picture on the email side!

Adam— You bet it is warm here!! I hope you are carrying mucho agua!! stay safe!

xxxx

Whow what a bundle! Love to hear them catch the bad guys…. just seem there is more to take their place……

Nice to hear from you Jen, I knew Susan was a warm welcoming lady, nice to hear she is a good cook too……Nice to see your picture that puts a beautiful face to your words…

Can someone transulate Alfredo comments?

Nite Nite all

G-d Bless

Dottie
“Smile” it confuses people.

Jen: glad you liked the shirt. The photos of the canyon are beautiful.

I remember when my dad bought a color TV, it was those big consoles. My mom didn’t know he bought it.

Adam, You have been busy. I am fascinated by these pix, they take pictures that have way to reveal where they really are.

Jen I knew that pink jeep was going to cost extra, but it is much easier than a donkey! Susan seems like a whirlwind of energy to me.

Farc planned to Kill President Uribe
Car with explosives found attempt was frustrated.

Frustran atentado contra el presidente Uribe

10 de junio de 2008
RCN
http://www.rcn.com.co/noticia.php3?nt=25914

El Departamento Administrativo de Seguridad (DAS) informó este martes que detectives y técnicos antiexplosivos adelantaron un operativo que permitió frustrar un atentado del frente 21 de las Farc dirigido contra el presidente Álvaro Uribe y el gobernador del Tolima, Óscar Barreto. El primer mandatario había anunciado una próxima visita al municipio de Planadas.

Tras labores investigativas, los detectives del DAS interceptaron en la vía Alvarado – Ibagué, un taxi de placas WTO 408 en el cual encontraron 120 kilos de explosivos de gran poder destructivo, y un instructivo para la fabricación de artefactos para realizar atentados.

El atentado sería una retaliación de las Farc por la ofensiva militar del Ejército contra Guillermo León Sáenz Vargas, alias “Alfonso Cano”.

Capturado el taxista

La fuente agregó que en la operación fue detenido Wilfredy Álvarez González, chofer del taxi, que el lunes, en una diligencia judicial en Bogotá, hizo precisiones que llevaron al DAS a confirmar el plan contra Uribe.

Álvarez fue procesado por “terrorismo, fabricación, tráfico y porte de armas de fuego o municiones”, indicó el DAS, que no informó de su relación con los insurgentes.

En la operación fue decomisado “un documento para fabricar explosivos y realizar atentados”, agregó el DAS, que divulgó el mensaje, dirigido a un supuesto rebelde de nombre o alias “Jhon” y firmado solo con la letra inicial “C”.

En la nota, el firmante explica el plan como una represalia por las operaciones militares que se mantienen en las zonas de páramo del sur del Tolima en las que se presume que está establecido el nuevo jefe máximo de las Farc, Guillermo León Sáenz, conocido con el alias de “Alfonso Cano”.

El motivo del atentado

Sáenz sucedió al casi octogenario Pedro Antonio Marín (“Manuel Marulanda Vélez” o “Tirofijo”), quien murió el pasado 26 de marzo de una crisis cardíaca, según lo informó el Secretariado (mando central) de las FARC en un comunicado divulgado a finales de mayo.

Además, el responsable de la nota les recomienda a quienes deben preparar el atentado que “tengan cuidado con la manipulación” de las cargas explosivas.

“Como son 4 cajas metales (sic) a cada una 30 kilos sin metralla porque las cajas son de lámina”, dice el documento, y agrega que “con el aditivo que le adiciona quedan buenas de presión”.

“Buena suerte camaradas”, les desea el mismo supuesto rebelde a los destinatarios del mensaje, a quienes les pide que lo hagan “sin compación (sic)”.

El DAS atribuyó el plan al frente 21 y a la Compañía Cajamarca de las FARC, y dijo que la responsabilidad de esta guerrilla se hizo evidente “con información de inteligencia, analizada por el DAS, y compartida a inteligencia de la Policía y el Ejército”.

Uribe tenía previsto regresar a Planadas, distante menos de 300 kilómetros de Bogotá, en el transcurso de un mes, para hacer un seguimiento al consejo de seguridad que había liderado allí.

woow thats alot of dope :O

what do they do with it? Burn it? or smoke it in the shed lol

Aren’t those both the same things?

sylvia…re: johns a hoot…
if i had a dollar for everytime he and sgt have “made” me spew mountain dew all over my desk i’d be rich! *L*

Thank you Montana.

John, you are a hoot.

Got to leave for awhile….will check back with you all later.

Adam……………as the gals said above, bring plenty of water ,but, more importantly with all that pot, you guys better hijack a truck of Keebler’s Chocolate Chip Cookies…………….best cure for the munchies…………so I’m told.

Wow…….they got all that stuff in the back of their SUV and I can’t manage to fit the groceries and dog food!!!
Amazing.

Adam, take care and drink lots of water. It is really hot here and the heat sneaks up on you pretty quick. As I type it is 102 here in Apache Junction, Arizona and Susan can attest to the heat and its horrors.

Will look forward to reading your adventures in our part of the country.

Sylvia, so nice to see you posting again. You reaqlly were missed.

Montana

@All

have a good one. Be well and safe.
((departs))

@Avi

better vet the source on that “1908″ report:

…the first Mother’s Day was celebrated in 1908

…the murder rate in the U.S. in 1908 was 4.8 per 100,000 population (pop. ~90,000,000, btw) as per National Center for Health Statistics, Vital Statistics.

…the murder rate in the U.S. as of most recent data is 5.7 per 100,000 (pop. ~304,000,000) as per the DoJ.

just FYI.

Avi

The hardest part was trying to type a report….you had to erase or use white-out because typewriters couldn’t simply delete or move words around. It used to take me longer to type the report than to research it. For research we did it the long way…head to the nearest library and get the info from books. Our daughter who is now 32 got an encyclopedia for her bat mitzah…a gift from her Grandparents.

Avi…re:” cant imagine how ppl your age managed school without computers especially for research ”

it’s called a library! *L*

Sylvia,

i cant imagine how ppl your age managed school without computers especially for research ….. my dad tells me stories without computers but stories of getting info for encylopedias…. i dont think i have opened a encylopedia book in forever for a research paper looll

230 murders looooool…….. to bad we cant match that today

Avi

Very interesting. And I thought life before computers was ancient history!!! Actually, I remember life before color TV……so I am an “old timer”. You are lucky to have grown up in the computer age….it is an amazing invention.

Sylvia

THE YEAR 1908

The year is 1908.
One hundred years ago.
What a difference a century makes!
Here are some statistics for the Year 1908 :
************************************
The average life expectancy was 47 years.

Only 14 percent of the homes had a bathtub.

Only 8 percent of the homes had a telephone.

There were only 8,000 cars and only 144 miles of paved roads.

The maximum speed limit in most cities was 10 mph.

The tallest structure in the world was the Eiffel Tower

The average wage in 1908 was 22 cents per hour.

The average worker made between $200 and $400 per year .

A competent accountant could expect to earn $2,000 per year,
a dentist $2,500 per year, a veterinarian between $1,500 and $4,000 per year,
and a mechanical engineer about $5,000 per year.

More than 95 percent of all births took place at HOME.

Ninety percent of all doctors had NO COLLEGE EDUCATION!
Instead, they attended so-called medical schools, many of which were condemned in the press AND the government as ’substandard. ‘

Sugar cost four cents a pound.

Eggs were fourteen cents a dozen.

Coffee was fifteen cents a pound.

Most women only washed their hair once a month, and used Borax or egg yolks for shampoo.

Canada passed a law that prohibited poor people from entering into their

country for any reason.

Five leading causes of death were:
1. Pneumonia and influenza
2. Tuberculosis
3. Diarrhea
4. Heart disease
5. Stroke

The American flag had 45 stars.

The population of Las Vegas, Nevada, was only 30!!!!

Crossword puzzles, canned beer, and ice tea had not been invented yet.

There was no Mother’s Day or Father’s Day.

Two out of every 10 adults couldn’t read or write.

Only 6 percent of all Americans had graduated from high school.

Marijuana, heroin, and morphine were all available over the counter at the
local corner drugstores. Back then pharmacists said, ‘Heroin clears the
complexion, gives buoyancy to the mind, regulates the stomach and bowels, and is, in fact, a perfect guardian of health.’

Eighteen percent of households had at least one full-time servant or domestic help.

There were about 230 reported murders in the ENTIRE U.S.A. !

Sylvia…*LOL*

yabba dabba dooooooooo there’s JEN!!!!!!
Welcome Back!!!
