For Memorial Day, a Tribute to Us and Those Like Us

    Checkmate asked for me to make a post into a diary. In honor of her Dad who served in two wars, I am.   And I got this. Dolly Parton. Lee Greenwood has some thoughts. Red Skelton has some thoughts on the flag they fought to protect. And because I’m a Marl Levin fan, this. And finally, John Wayne has something to say.

    The IRS said to always tell the truth on my tax return?

     My income tax was sent back, AGAIN.  Said it was wrong.                                                    I don’t see how.                                                                                                                            In response to the question: “Do you have any dependents ?”                                              I replied yes.                                                                                                                                12 million illegal immigrant,                                                                                                         3 million crack heads,                                                                                                                   42 million unemployable people,                                                                                                 2 million people in over 243 prisons,                                                                                     538 idiots in the U.S. House and Senate.                                                                              Why they don’t let me claim the people I | Read More »

    “I’m 63 and I’m Tired” by Robert A. Hall

    Originally a comment on an open thread, urged to make a diary, so I did. ———————————————————- Correctly attributed, per Snopes.com   I’m 63.

    It is the VETERAN

    We’ve seen this before. Lets look at it again. Thanks for the reminder, Saun. It is the VETERAN, not the preacher, who has given us the freedom of religion.
