Thanks for yet another interesting yet frightening article. I am glad nobody was seriously hurt. I have always thought that skydiving is a dangerous sport to try, i commend whoever has the courage to try it. Its up there with riding those flimsy private planes. You heard about crashes that happen to those planes all the time in the news.

man they were lucky injuries weren’t worse.

It must have been a long trip for you. I know that visiting Hawaii is awfully long also, the plane ride takes at least 6 hours. I am guessing you stayed less than a day there? I hope you got to see the local culture in Tahiti, and the dance troupes there, not to mention the local beer, Hinano Tatihi. Did you happen to get a taste of it?

Patty-

I have to respectfully disagree with you. I do think most of the problems with our society nowadays are because of the liberal way of thinking. People are becoming to open minded, and often times that can be a bad thing. Plus the liberal AP press didnt have the common courtesy to show Tony Snow some respect after his passing. They had to blatently critique him, as well as say other nasty stuff.

re: “I am sure LDG has seen this link you posted? Comments I hope by LDG.”

well, yes, I have read that story.

Technically, using the symbology of the Red Cross / Red Crescent in a ruse of war is a violation of the Geneva Conventions (those regarding medical aid and the treatment of combatants in wartime).

The International Committee of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies has a legitimate claim against the Government of Colombia for misrepresenting them, but that is a matter between those two entities.

Where the issue gets murky, legally speaking, is that the FARC are not a “lawful” or recognized combatant, so it is not clear at all that such protections apply to them. “Telling lies to deceive liars” may in fact be acceptable, and all that implies…

*L* @ Aunt Jen! You might be slow on the “number jokes”, but your quick with the words!

Adam..*VBS*….your a doll! So now that i feel a little guilty (even if it is a little premature) can i say that we appreciate all you do, and the patience you show us here! You’ve always been very gracious to let us have our way, so to speak. Please don’t let a few bad apples make the rest of us suffer. We don’t make very good “test subjects”, so cut that cr*p out!
Here’s hoping you have a GREAT day! SMILE as dottie would say!

‘morning Everyone!

Here’s a cute one that will show where your mind is at………..

What’s a four lettered word for a woman that ends in “…UNT”?
————————————————————————————————————

the Unión Nacional de Trabajadores de Venezuela (UNT)? and then add the other missing letter and this would be Eva Gollinger?

Did I get it right?

I so agree with you! Colombia went to extreme measures to get these prisoners out and did a lot of fudging and faking! That article is nothing but chara!

I am sure LDG has seen this link you posted?

Comments I hope by LDG.

Brad– Patty posted the story about the Girl Scout brownies and I had a great time in Tahiti! (Not Hawaii) Short but sweet!

Jen– let us set up a thread of poetry! I still remember the one you posted around Xmas time– that one was way cool!

Thanks for that article. I totally agree with you, i dont see what the big deal. This the exact type of thing that is reported on these liberal networks. As long as all the hostages were able to get out safe and sound, who cares about the strategy used to do it?

John0

I would be really interested in hearing your poems, and i am sure others with agree with me as well.It doesnt matter if they dont rhyme, its probably unique in some way

who the h*** cares? are they going to make them go back? give me a break. They were prisoners, who cares what it took to get them out. whoever started this story needs to go live there if they are so worried about it! grrrrrrrrrrrr

What’s a four lettered word for a woman that ends in “…UNT”?

Susan-
Excellent as always. I’m just glad your poem wasn’t in spain-ish.

And thanks y’all, for your compliments
on the poem I posted here.
They were meant for some encouragement
and to add a little cheer.

See you next time come back.

That article you posted about the Girl Scouts is really strange. I guess it was all a cover for illegal drug activity.

I guess you had a wonderful time during your visit to Hawaii yesterday, am i correct?

If i ever come across any interesting Britney news, i will be sure to pass it along to you. I think she is currently filming a news music video with Madonna. It looks she is getting her life back together and well on her way to a comeback.

Awesome poem, also. I guess we have a ton of talented poem writers here on the blog

John is our Britney Spears reporter!

I was gone all day yesterday and I did not watch any television yesterday– so I missed the All Stars-

Jen great poem!!!!

Here is mine–

Instant posting now an urban legend,
as so will I be if this continues for years,
for my time here on earth will run out for sure!

(I am using the Classical Greek and Latin syle of poetry– rhyme was not used- LOL)

Give a whole new meaning to the iwords “girl scout brownies”!!!

‘morning everyone!

Did anyone happen to catch the All Star game last night? What a thriller, it lasted so long, almost 6 hours. It apparently broke a record set back in 1967. For all those who watched it, what a memorable game. Not to mention the last All Star Game in history for Yankee Stadium.

That poem “Blog Nog Religion and Baseball” is really good, you should definately submit it to be posted on various poetry sites. You are a natural talented writer.

FL Sunshine-

How is the weather in Florida? I heard its very similar to Hawaii. I know Hawaii is hot and humid all year round, from the several times i visited there.

I bet you saw all the places in Miami where the classic Miami Vice show was filmed, am i correct?

I wonder if the NY Yankees can trade for Josh Hamilton, he would be a wonderful asset to the team.

Speaking about Adam not posting any celeb news.

Did you all hear about what happened with Miley, and those racy pics that are circulating, thanks to a hacker of her cell phone?

It was on the live desk this afternoon, plus on nancy grace.

As for what happened to Miley, its really sad.

i thought miley would have learned her lesson from the other pics, but i guess not. Half the times Miley has done this, people made a huge deal when the photo’s weren’t even bad. I will admit, that the first photo of these photo’s is bad, but we don’t even know if it’s real or fake. If it is real, i’d be a little upset but I still won’t hate on her for it. The whole Vanity Fair controversy was just the beginning of a more deeper problem with her.

Are you talking about Britney Spears? I always like to read up on the latest celeb gossip news in my spare time. Its always entertaining to see all the crazy antics the famous people get themselves into.

LOL, you definately should, mowing the lawn on a hot summer day sure takes a lot of energy out of a person

I highly doubt it, he just wants to make himself look good. The New Yorker satire cartoon is nothing to what us conservatives have to deal with on a daily basis, look at all the political cartoons you see in local newspapers everyday? They all make fun of GW Bush or some Republican.

John-

The only thing i could think of that could spell the end of the world in 2012, would be if another terrorist act happens here on the US. I hope and Pray it doesnt, and GW Bush is responsible for it. Why do you think we have be safe for over 7 years. I am afraid if BHO or some liberal becomes President, he will talk to rogue leaders like the one in Iran, and put our country in great danger.

Jen-

I hope you still manage to drink about 8 cups of water daily. Of course not all at once, but throughout the day. Its to keep your body healthy.

Blog Nog Religion and Baseball

Instant comment posting
Is a thing of the past.
We all assumed
It would forever last.

It suddenly happened in a short course of time
Not sure why the change or the reason for this rhyme.

But this was and is
The best blog around.
Many a good friend here
I have found.

Just hard to stay in touch with all of this change;
My life is now different, it feels very strange.

So maybe someday
Things will return,
Back to the norm
Which is what we yearn.

But let’s don’t give up, says Apostle Paul,
This is just one of Satan’s evil screw balls.
