Nightmare.....

I stopped dead in my tracks and sucked in my breath.....I don't know what I thought was worse, knowing I had to pass by it or knowing I already had (I noticed it on my way back through). This is what I get for snooping around corners.
Then, knowing that the inevitable had to happen - I crossed by that monstrosity - and to make it worse..... with my BACKPACK behind me.

Does anyone feel my pain - or rather, HIGH FIVE FOR KELLY FOR NOT NEEDING A PAPER BAG to breathe in afterwards.....

*P.S. I didn't even take any of it home Jess

Sean Hannity - ridiculous. Full Stop.

So.....he on the awesome FOX news saying how he would not have taken a prize (as in the Nobel PEACE Prize) that a "terrorist" had had. He is referring to Yasser Arafat; instead he would give the Nobel Peace Prize - wait for it.......to the Military.
It took me a second, too. Yup, he actually said it.

DUKE - Apology?!

WARNING: This blog contains strong opinions!
Ok - Someone tell me why District Attorney NiFong has to APOLOGIZE to the Juveniles in the DUKE RAPE case? THAT WAS HIS JOB!!!!! You are an African American woman - went to a frickin' frat house - of course they tried to assault you! If they didn't - they wanted to - they obviously had you there for some sort of sexual pleasure - they are frat boys!
Call me part of the African American community, call me a feminist, call me a man-hater - I AM OUTRAGED.
Money talks people, it is DUKE. DUKE! DUKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now he is being threatened - That is what lawyers do - they take cases, study them and try to prosecute the other party!
If it was your daughter who claimed she was assaulted you bet your bloomin' butt you would want someone to take the case!

Sammie......the Pekingese

I mean......who can resist snowshoeing with this little guy....but then saw fresh "tracks" of some sort and sammie would have been an or H'orderve...except he sort of looks like an extension of my hair.

Where time has gone.......

JP n' Kelly: January '07 Lake Champlain, VT

Ok, so I am sorry but I can't stop hanging out.......but on the positive side - he can't wait to meet you all!!!!!

Scudder - Down with the Scud!!

118 People showed for this Sign/Honk 'n Wave - Senator Leahy was there and the news and Mindy and Mom even showed up - Mom stayed for the whole thing - she was a Trooper!!


"Talkin' bout a Revolution..."



This picture is how Vermont politics are run - Kim Cheney (crappy name for him this election year - but I figure the Democrats will find out if he is D or R and the Republicans will just ASSUME he is - so I figure he will get both sides' votes!!) anyways, he goes over and waves with his opponent and they talk the issues while doing it - LOVE THEM!





The Man himself!!

Christian Democrats/Independants(socialists), just not Republicans

1. This is of Jackson, Judy and me jumping at the "goose-bump jump" - Civically-minded non-Republicans.

2. Ok - so maybe Bernie Sanders wasn't looking at the camera - but I was still excited to help at the rally - and for those of you who have not already voted - VOTE

3.And one last one of Congressman(soon - to - be Senator) Bernie Sanders, Willie Nelson - who endorsed him with ads - and Senator Leahy, my personal favorite activists against Landmines -
