A woman asks her husband, 'Would you like some bacon and eggs? A slice of toast and maybe some grapefruit and coffee?'??
He declines. 'Thanks for asking, but I'm not hungry right now. It's this Viagra,' he says. 'It's really taken the edge off my appetite.'??
At lunchtime she asked if he would like something. 'A bowl of soup, homemade muffins, or a cheese sandwich?'
He declines. 'The Viagra,' he says, 'really trashes my desire for food.'
Come dinner time, she asks if he wants anything to eat. 'would you like a juicy rib-eye steak and scrumptious apple pie? Or maybe a rotisserie chicken or tasty stir fry?'??
He declines again. 'No,' he says, 'it's got to be the Viagra.... I'm still not hungry.'
'Well,' she says, 'Would you mind letting me up? I'm f**kin' starving!

Blog Post of the Day.....'Obama has Lost his Mojo'
The hours and the days speed by. It is almost five months since President Obama was sworn in. A million people gathered in Washington on a bitterly cold day to hear him and to leave behind a mountain of trash.
Granted that in the weeks leading up to the inauguration, first the White House and then the Congress panicked in the face of what looked like a total Wall Street meltdown. A frantic effort was made to secure a blank check for billions to purchase the “toxic” paper, the bundled mortgages that turned out to have no identifiable assets.
Major banks, investment houses, and a huge, international insurance company tottered on the brink of failure. Some did. Some were merged.
Americans, even the most unsophisticated, understood that such an implosion threatened the financial bedrock of the nation, continue reading

Jesus, Moses and an old bearded man are golfing. Jesus tees up, hits his drive straight towards the hole only to find it bouncing toward the lone water hazard on the course. It flies to the water, stops and hovers just above the pond. Jesus approaches the pond, walks to its middle, and hits the hovering ball to within inches of the cup.
Moses steps up to the tee, finds his drive approaching the same water hazard. He raises his club, the pond waters part way and the ball comes to rest just short of the cup.
The older man hits a poor drive, it screams onto a nearby road, ricochets off a truck and hits the water. A frog intercepts it, only to be picked up by a passing eagle. Frog and eagle are lifted skyward, only to be dropped by the eagle to within inches of the cup. In his scramble to get away, the frog hits the ball, knocking it into the cup for a perfect hole in one.
Moses looks at Jesus and says "Boy, I hate golfing with your Dad "

Good advice.....
Written By Regina Brett, 90 years old, of The Plain Dealer, Cleveland , Ohio
"To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me. It is the most-requested column I've ever written.."
1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.
2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.
3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone..
4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will.. Stay in touch.
5. Pay off your credit cards every month.
6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.
8. It's OK to get angry with God.. He can take it.
9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.
10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.
11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.
12. It's OK to let your children see you cry.
13. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it.
15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never blinks.
16. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.
17. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.
18. Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger.
19. It's never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.
20. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer.
21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special.
22. Over prepare, then go with the flow.
23. Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple.
24. The most important sex organ is the brain.
25. No one is in charge of your happiness but you.

27. Always choose life.
28.. Forgive everyone everything.
29. What other people think of you is none of your business.
30. Time heals almost everything. Give time time.
31. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.
32. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
33. Believe in miracles.
34. God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn't do.
35. Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.
36. Growing old beats the alternative -- dying young.
37.. Your children get only one childhood.
38. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.
39. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.
40. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's,we'd grab ours back.
41. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
42. The best is yet to come.
43. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.
44. Yield.
45. Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift."

15 funny sports quotes..............
1. “Left hand, right hand, it doesn’t matter. I’m amphibious.” – Charles Shackleford
To be fair… He can actually breathe underwater too.
2. “Any time Detroit scores more than 100 points and holds the other team below 100 points, they almost always win.” – Doug Collins
… Almost? What happens the other times?
3. “I owe a lot to my parents, especially my mother and father” –Greg Norman
And all of his other parents he failed to mention.
4. “Rich Folkers is throwing up in the bullpen.” –Jerry Coleman
He’s sick? I hope he can still pitch today.
5. “The drivers have one foot on the brake, one on the clutch, and one on the throttle.” –Bob Varsha
6. “You can sum up this sport [boxing] in two words: ‘You never know.’” -Lou Duva
Only two? Ok, can’t argue with that.
7. “When you get that nice celebration coming into the dugout and you’re getting your ass hammered by guys—there’s no better feeling than to have that done.” -Matt Stairs
Umm… what?
8. “The NFL, like life, is full of idiots.” –Randy Cross
Truer words were never spoken.
9. “He’s a guy who gets up at six o’clock in the morning regardless of what time it is.” –Lou Deva… again.
….Ok Lou, ok.
10. “You don’t like to see hookers going down on players like that.” –Murry Mexted
11. “I dunno. I never smoked any Astroturf.” –Tug Mcgraw
After being asked if he preferred grass or Astroturf, the Tugger responded with this gem.
12. “Baseball is 90% mental. The other half is physical.” –Yogi Berra
And just because Yogi gave us so many, a bonus: “If you come to a fork in the road, take it.”
13. “We’re going to turn this team around 360 degrees.” –Jason Kidd
So, you’re going to turn it all the way around and continue in the direction it was originally going? On second thought, maybe you should stay in college Jason.
14. “He treats us like men. He lets us wear earrings.” –Torrin Polk
That’s the most important thing a college football coach can offer his team. Earings.
15. Reporter: “Did you visit the Parthenon while in Greece?”
Shaquille O’Neill: “I can’t really remember the names of all the clubs we went to.”

Interesting convergence...
First of all we have a German-American jew-hating scumbag going nuts at the DC Holocaust Museum. He was fortunately shot by several brave security guards, one of which was injured. The guy is a 9/11 truther as well naturally.
The guy ran a web-site where he blamed everything on the Jews which might have been a clue he was prone to this sort of looniness. Maybe instead of bothering Tea Party organisers the Homeland Security types might actually pay attention to the people like this. Needless to say the frothing left has already blamed this on "right-wingers," (cause you know national socialists are such good "conservatives") because it hides the jew-hatred in their midst.
Alas, his rampage has killed a security guard at the museum. A brave man who paid the ultimate sacrifice doing his job.
Rick Moran has a sensible piece on this heinous act.
Update: It seems that the shooter frequented meetings of the Friends of the British National Party according to the Washington Times. Lets see the BNP fans commenting at PJM get out of this one.
In other news, Jeremiah Wright has said he has been denied access to Obama because of the Jews around him. Wonder if the frothing left consider him a "right-winger" as well?
Graphic of the Day....
Just hit the 'Forward' arrow and watch. See 1) the stability and steady growth of 2004 - 2005. 2) Election of the Dem Congress in 2006 3) Katrina
4) The Campaign and nomination; The One came over the Horizon and into view in 2008 and 5) The Shit Hit The Fan.
