Being a native Texan woman, I can’t even begin to tell you how much I miss Ann Richards.  She was a great lady and the best governor we’ve ever had!  I hope she’s watching over the crap Rick Perry is trying to pull.  The sooner we can vote him out, the better for ALL Texans!  God Bless you and keep you, Ann!

Candice…I am genuinely shocked to think you, of all people, would ever shirk from confrontation!  You are such a strong, outspoken woman whom I admire greatly.  Besides that…you’re blonde!!!  Being a blonde, native Texan woman of German heritage, one of my problems is keeping my mouth shut and butting into other people’s business!  I have always thought of you as a kindred spirit…:-)  Oh…btw…being a Virgo helps…;-)

You are definitely not a pushover and don’t ever let anyone tell you that you are.  I would be honored to stand beside you anytime!

Barbara…I couldn’t agree more!  At least Obama’s smile is GENUINE as opposed to the person who had that office before!  I think Obama is doing a GREAT job!  Just remember that he has a big job; i.e., shoveling EIGHT YEARS of sh*t out of the White House before he can REALLY get started!

I have been very happy with what he has done so far and I’m sure he will continue!

Virgos are also perfectionists and can be extremely stubborn…I am both! ;-)  However, I love to laugh which is probably why I love Lily Tomlin so much!  Also, Gilda Radner was one of my all time favorites!  The world lost a great person when she passed away…:-(

KK & nanchan…I am also a Virgo and couldn’t agree with you more!

I have always loved Lily Tomlin!  All of her characters are hysterically funny but I think Ernestine and Edith Ann are the best!  I miss seeing her on a weekly show!  She really DOES look GREAT for her age!

I couldn’t agree more with Candice! Eight years of listening to Dubya spout you-know-what is MORE than enough for me!

I gave up on trying to keep printed photos a long time ago. They always ended up lost in some box labeled as something else so I never knew where to find them! I now use ACDSee Photo Manager to upload photos from my digital camera to my PC. I sort them by the month/year they were taken. I can then manipulate the photos with Photo Manager, i.e., get rid of the red eyes, resize, etc. Once I’ve finished all the editing, I upload them to my Kodak Gallery account (small monthly charge but well worth it!). Kodak Gallery allows me to create “albums” and share them with friends and family. It also allows me to purchase prints if I want them or have the prints framed. My mother-in-law is 86 and she likes photos she can hold and show off at church, etc. I can order prints for her and have them sent. I can also have pix framed and sent to her. Sure takes the hassle of having a print made, framed and then mailed manually! I HIGHLY recommend this process! Hope this helps! If you would like more info, please let me know. I would be happy to assist you!
