A Message from John Cleese To the citizens of the United States of America: In light of your failure to nominate competent candidates for President of the USA and thus to govern yourselves, we hereby give notice of the revocation of your independence, effective immediately. Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will resume monarchical duties over all states, commonwealths, and territories (except Kansas, which she does not fancy). Your new prime minister, Gordon Brown, will appoint a governor for America without the need for further elections. Congress and the Senate will be disbanded. A questionnaire may be circulated next year to determine whethe…

I"m coming out of the pink closet.. I have Breast Cancer, ironically. I had a positive hit on my mamogram and will have to have a lumpectomy on my left breast in June, then radiation, no chemo as of yet. I have an MRI today to see if everything got caught already. Then surgery June 10-12 and radiation after.. I have 6 weeks left of FMLA and my insurance changes to crappy stuff at work May 31. My ex is letting me stay in the house longer, but after that, not sure what will happen. I might not have a job, a home, money, a breast, or insurance. Its in very early stages, (stage 0), and its micro calcifications, so its very common. One of my friends has it, and will be my…

Hello All! I just returned from a wonderful trip to Hawaii. My childhood friend, Sue, bought 4 tickets and I was the recipient of one of them! We stayed with another friend and saw many beautiful sites. We climbed Diamond Head, Parasailed, toured the Dole Plantation, swam at Waikiki, visited Pearl Harbor, went to the North Shore and saw many Sea Turtles. As we were taking the Ferry one morning 10 baby dolphins about 3 ft. long swam along side and jumped in the wakes of the Ferry. It was a wondeful time. Here are a few photos for you to see. Sunset at the Luau... Deanna (left) Sandy (right) almost at the top of Diamond Head Sea Turtles.... Onboard the Missou…

(please move this post if needed) Sorry I've been MIA for god only knows how long. I'm 22 years old so I've been trying to live it up the best I can. Got addicted to a few online games, kicked that habit out the door and now just trying to enjoy the outdoors and life. So the past few weeks my best buddy of mine who I've known since high school, a real good guy, like the brother I never had, hell I've even saved his life, twice. Anyway, him and I were sitting around talking about the prices of things and how crazy gas is getting. How we don't enjoy our jobs or the city we live in and really just having one of those drunken talks but haven't been drinking kind of talks if…

All these pictures were taken either from my front deck, or from inside the house looking out the front window. Okay, in May and June, it was "The Boys" loitering around in my front yard. They are in the process of growing out their antlers for the year, and at this point, the bone is still covered in velvet. Here is a wider shot, showing all three guys. Then, in late June and still living in my front yard, are "The Girls and Children". It is a doe with twin fawns, and a young doe that is probably last years fawn by the same mom. They really make themselves at home! They even drink from my birdbaths. Then it's down our driveway and off to our pond, for a bi…

Is it only me who is having problems with photobucket? All of a sudden, I can't upload pictures from my computer. Never had a problem before. Did the usual easy fixes first, like shut down and restart the computer (I leave it on most of the time), did program updates. Nadda. I'm still unable to upload pictures. Trying to get photobucket to answer a problem is a pain in the butt, since you have to have a seperate log-on code name, etc. to get to thier troubleshooters, who give you a long list of stuff to check on your computer first, most of which I have no idea what they are talking about. I am not a computer tech. Sheesh. Any advice? Oh, and BTW, I have a Mac.

I don't know how many Man Utd fans are on here, or even football fans at all. But as a devoted MUFC fan my concerns lie with the saga over Ronaldo and the whole Real Madrid thing. Will he sign for the Spanish side or see some sense and stay put??

Hey all, I just thought I would inform those who know me, that this Sunday at 3:00 PM, Jessica and I (Kate Souris and I) will finally be tieing the knot... With a real live minister and everything. So from here on in, we will not only be portraying a married couple, we finally actually WILL be a married couple. As this will likely be a pretty busy weekend for both of us, I am guessing neither of us will be online much... So thanks in advance to any well wishes (or condolences) . Maybe if all goes well I can post a photobucket link on Monday or Tuesday of some of the wedding photos. As for tonight... I celebrate my bachelorhood with a bunch of friends. My bes…
