OK now I want info, you’ve peaked my curiosity and I’m out for the real news in New Fairfield, forget really, really bad campaign management and piss poor distasteful signs, they’ve truly made the McCain/Palin campaign look like savants!
It’s not about politics or even your plight with the Noble Peace Prize crowd (small clue, Norwegians are a tough crowd in general) and all this Facebook/Twitter stuff, yea right, I get it now, you guys are smart:

I’m here for THE RECIPE, you know what I’m talking about, spill the beans Paul and supply us with the real “piece de resistance” and please not some knockoff stuff. The Prize winning Chili on your blog ASAP.

Cheers and have a great Night/Day

Juv.

Comment on What I Did On My Summer Vacation by il2sopc

24/7 phone and internet hook up is a great convenience but I know what you mean. Sometimes it can become invasive/addictive/inappropriate if you let it. I saw a man pushing his son in a stroller at the Bronx Zoo this summer with his Bluetooth in his ear chatting away. Sometimes we should just be in the here and now enjoying it.

Comment on Anniversaries by Juventus

“Thomas Paine was a champion, in both hemispheres, of human liberty; one of the founders and fathers of this Republic; one of the foremost men of his age. He never wrote a word in favor of injustice. He was a despiser of slavery. He abhorred tyranny in every form. He was, in the widest and best sense, a friend of all his race. His head was clear as his heart was good, and he had the courage to speak his honest thoughts.”

“I believe in the equality of man, and that religious duties consist in doing justice, in loving mercy, and endeavoring to make our fellow-creatures happy.”
“It is necessary to the happiness of man that he be mentally faithful to himself.”
“The word of God is the creation which we behold.”
“Belief in a cruel God makes a cruel man.”
“My opinion is, that those whose lives have been spent in doing good and endeavoring to make their fellow-mortals happy, will be happy hereafter.”
“I believe in one God, and no more, and I hope for happiness beyond this life.”
“Man has no property in man.”
“The key of heaven is not in the keeping of any sec!”

Thomas Paine, was born in Thetford in Norfolk on January 29, 1737, he died on June 8, 1809 at the age of 72 in New York City. Perhaps Mr Thomas Paine would be very proud of New Fairfield and would want us to remember this day in words too.

LOL… I think that you might be right. Especially the part where he says “Lord I’m affected by a bald patch.”

For example,
“8. What fashion statement is God making by having certain people be naturally bald?

“A. None. Baldness is a random condition typically caused by the genetics of the human scalp. B. Baldness can be as beautiful as a handsome hairdo. C. Baldness is God’s punishment of those who are evil. D. Beauty is based on the inner soul and not outward appearance.

“Correct Answer: C (Baldness is God’s punishment of those who are evil.) “And it shall come to pass, that instead of sweet smell there shall be stink, that instead of a girdle a rent; and instead of well set hair baldness; and instead of a stomacher a girding of sackcloth; and burning instead of beauty” (Isaiah 3:24). “Baldness is come upon Gaza; Ashkelon is cut off with the remnant of their valley: how long wilt thou cut thyself?” (Jeremiah 47:5).” (http://jmm.aaa.net.au/articles/12969.htm)

Makes you wonder…

Well, I have to admit I’m rather jealous-at least your not confused like the rest of us! I just wish things would sort themselves out… Maybe this can clarify; or perhaps not.
