I hate when that happens. :madmad:
Maybe as a replacement to the tank you can get the wife and kids to pose and recreate the Iwo Jima Memorial??

We tried that once a few years back but the soil is so sandy the pole won't stay up...first gust of wind and down she goes. :idunno:

We were at the nursing home as usual for Tuesday, helped with the May Day activities in healthcare, got extra visitation in too. We had a wheel chair May Pole dance, that can be challenging but it was fun and laughter filled, we had a marvelous lunch BBQ and then helped with the afternoon activities, as always it was good day at the healthcare/nursing home for us.
We are going to see Wicked at the Buelle theater tonight!

linger: call May the Month :bow: of Mary. Joseph and Mary were poor but they paid their :Commie: "fair share".
(As it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord)
And to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of the Lord, A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons [Luke 2:23–24].
"Mary and Joseph offered turtledoves as a sacrifice, which were an evidence of their poverty. The sacrifice was for Mary and not for the Child. As far as we know, Jesus never offered a sacrifice." McGee, J. Vernon: Thru the Bible Commentary. electronic ed. Nashville : Thomas Nelson, 1997, c1981, S. 4:254

I was thinking that I'd probably call for help.

I reread Alexander Solzhenityn's Harvard address, A World Split Apart. Still relevant, still prescient, especially today.

From the address:
I have spent all my life under a communist regime and I will tell you that a society without any objective legal scale is a terrible one indeed. But a society with no other scale but the legal one is not quite worthy of man either. A society which is based on the letter of the law and never reaches any higher is taking very scarce advantage of the high level of human possibilities. The letter of the law is too cold and formal to have a beneficial influence on society. Whenever the tissue of life is woven of legalistic relations, there is an atmosphere of moral mediocrity, paralyzing man's noblest impulses.

I had little hope that anyone would actually click the link. I'm really glad to see that you did.
Thank you. I read it and also read about the man. I did not remember much about him but there is good coverage here --> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleksandr_Solzhenitsyn
Nice. :up:I worked for 12 hours running a retail store. It was a good day, financially.
Thanks, Anna!
I've read the Address and I've read his "Gulag Archipelago".
Yes...still very much relevant.
I recommend "You Can Trust the Communists .........................
to be Communists" by Dr. Fred Schwartz.

I've read the address a number of times, but it's been many years since I read Gulag Archipelago. Thanks for the book recommendation, I've bookmarked it.
