Headline: Bolton Withdraws to Run for Voinovich Senate Seat kajun, I WISH I had the power to stop this horrible joke of nature this weekend. But, as Beerme says, we Michiganders can handle anything. In fact, after 3 BEAUTIFUL weeks (I was even hoping for rain so the leave would pop, which they did the last two days.....meandering......was thinking earlier today, that Crayola should have a shade of green called "springtime willow green"....huh? wha? oh, yeah Beerme can also back me up on this one..."Don't like the weather in Michigan? Wait 5 minutes, it'll change!" Yep, we Michiganders are made of sturdy stuff. Almost as sturdy as the folks from further north, eh, Ms.RW? Posted by MargeinMI on 2005-04-22 23:20:58 Top |

Headline: Bolton Withdraws to Run for Voinovich Senate Seat Ms. RightWing, Please clairfy "real life" from your previous post. Could you possibly mean that Mr. Ott has better things to do besides what you and I are doing? I can't think of anything better...or else I'd be doing it! Talk of snow this weekend.

Headline: Bolton Withdraws to Run for Voinovich Senate Seat So I guess it wasn't The Master Ott that just shut down the power twice in the last 30 min. Had me wonderin' there for a minute. I give a call out and 2 minutes later, I'm sittin' here in the dark. Coincidence? I report, you decide. Kudos Beerme. Did you compose that and sit on it until an opportune moment, or was that off the cuff? Excellent. Posted by MargeinMI on 2005-04-22 22:23:12 Top |

Headline: Energy Bill Offers Incentives to Burn Cheese O.K. Ms.RW, that did it. Now to the MargeinMI 5 Minute NachoNummy: Put nacho chips on a plate. Crush to desired fork/mouth-ful. Sprinkle librally (not democratically) with desired CHEESE (taco, sharp chedar, etc.) Dump hot salsa to taste on top of CHEESE. Nuke on 50% for 2:30. CHEESE should be sufficiently melted. Shake salad mix out of 'salad in a bag' on top of melted chips/CHEESE/salsa. Squirt ranch dressing over 'salad' topping. ENJOY! O.K! Talked myself right into it while previewing........ Catch y'all in the a.m. Sweet dreams. Posted by MargeinMI on 2005-04-21 22:58:11 Top |

Headline: Teachers' Union Suit Sparks 'No Bureaucrat Left Behind' May I just say how blessed I am with my public school district. I feel I'm out of the norm in this country. It is very small, one elementary school and a combined middle and high school. There has been no after school tutoring this year due to cut-backs in Title I, they're not going to know until the last two weeks of school if there's going to be summer school this year (due to lack of funding), there was an article in the local paper last month that this district might be shut down in 2-3 years for lack of funding. HELLOOOOOOOOOOOO Jenny Grandholm!!!! Where's the Lottery money??? Where's our share of the $10 BILLION of No Child Left Behind? How come Michigan's education was in recovery mode until you took office? Watch out for this one folks. Thank goodness she's Canadian and can't be POTUS (flip side of AAAhnold). Wow.

Long Elementary school near downtown Frogmore, armed with Danielle Steele novels and nail files...and their novels confiscated. What about the nail files???? I've had 3 pairs of nail clippers and MANY nail files gone missing in the last month!!!! Is this part of some vast conspiracy that I'm not up to date on?? kajun news, Please investigate!

Headline: Energy Bill Offers Incentives to Burn Cheese Just consider it a saganaki sidewanderer (was going to say sidewinder, but the fingers took over)... Toasted cheese sandwiches and tomato soup? Had it for dinner two nights ago. Off brand soup (not as good as Campbells [still don't know or care to do the trademark thingy], a little tangy zip of miracle whip (see above) on onion rye (remind me to compliment my local SMALL grocer for getting some good bread!) and swiss in the toaster oven.

Headline: Energy Bill Offers Incentives to Burn Cheese Pearblossom is a lovely name for a town. There's a town near me that has a "Bologna Festival" every year. Complete with the Bologna Queen (her mama must be so proud). I don't understand what you mean by, "We now support 3 Starbucks." So is it like by drinking so much of their coffee (look out Big Java), or the town is big enough to have 3? I have to drive 30 miles to get to a Tim Horton's, 17 mile to McDonald's/KMart/Kroger. (I personally put at least one tire on the Home Depot Nascar car!) (Per year) Posted by MargeinMI on 2005-04-21 19:56:23 Top |

Headline: Sen. Voinovich Offers Self for U.N. Ambassador Post I'm with you kajun. BTW, good one yesterday! I didn't knock out the power to 60 sq. miles (and I had juice for 2 hours after every town within 30 miles was out...kids sent home at 9:30 in 5 districts!) with my whimpy 18.5 hp mower. Besides, I pulled that fence with my Hands and my BACK and the use of a broom handle pry-bar. NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE USEFULNESS OF LEVERAGE. After 7 years of cleaning up my little corner of the universe, you'd think it would be getting easier. Have had excellent luck so far this year (knock on wood), just missed a piece of rebar sticking up about 4" above grade, buried in old grass. I got the shovel and dug down a good 15' all around the thing, and it won't even tilt. It's IN there. At least I didn't waste my deck finding it! WheW! What a great Spring so far!!!!! At last, at long last!!!! Posted by MargeinMI on 2005-04-21 19:48:04 Top |

Headline: Energy Bill Offers Incentives to Burn Cheese Angus, re: your 3:18 post... I can testify as far as the 'sticks' go. I live pretty near them, you just go on down, left at the 5th streetlight on the left, go one mile exactly (look at the tripometer or you'll miss it) and turn left and it's there on the corner. The place with the silo. (FYI, these are directions for night time travel, it's actually easier than in the day. ;o) ) anywaaaaay...... Usually it smells great out here in flyover land. The one exception however, occurs this time of year when the farmers are "fertilizing" (notice the scare " quotes, not the whimpy ' quote marks). It's the earthy smell of spring, and I FAR prefer it to the smog of the city. Fall used to be my favorite season, but since living in the country for the past 10 or so years, now it's spring. We've had the best one this year by far in the past 6 years. Whatcha think Beerme? (20 miles to my west) Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! Oh, and ON TOPIC: Give me a good strong Swiss with a glass of wine, or a pepperjack melty dip thingy with guacamole. (dinnerdinnerdinnertime) Posted by MargeinMI on 2005-04-21 19:20:00 Top |

Also, long time friends (30+ yrs.) have told me I've used up all of my lifetime "asking friends to help me move" points. Period.

Headline: Kerry Sends Legion of Lawyers to Monitor Pope Vote No, no, Kerry was Catholic before he wasn't a Catholic. Could never understand how he was so incredibly STUPID in that debate. If I was a Catholic and considering voting for him, that would have done it for me. (Kind of like when Clinton said "I didn't inhale." What do you think we are, idiots????)

Headline: Writer of GOP Schiavo Memo Outed as 'Curveball' I also aplogize if my tone seemed nasty this a.m. I was just upset to see two regular Scrapplers going at it thataway. My goodness, what will the trolls think of us if we can't disagree without namecalling and getting way too carried away (i.e. KKK reference). For what it's worth, I was raised Baptist and Lutheran and NEVER heard anything said at either church dissing Catholics, or Jews for that matter. I was in my teens before I ever heard the disgusting theory that they killed Christ. That's sure not what I was taught! I had been watching shows about the papacy on the History Channel last night, so that was fresh in my mind this morning. Whew doggie some of those popes back in the dark ages were some bad dudes. A lot of the time it was all politics and no faith in how they made their decisions. And don't get me started on the Spanish Inquisition! ;o) Peace. Posted by MargeinMI on 2005-04-08 15:45:17 Top |

Headline: Writer of GOP Schiavo Memo Outed as 'Curveball' BHB: Enough already! I went back and read the posts and to my thinking, camojack was expressing his opinion. You came off like a tantrum throwing child. I'm not Catholic, but have read a bit of history. The Catholic Church HAS in the past been, "greedy and corrupt." (Why do you think Martin Luther did what he did?????) They've changed the rules over the years to suit their needs. Does that make camojack a 'bigot'? If so, then I guess I'm one too. I don't look down on Catholics, I just don't agree on some of their practices. It's called 'disagreement.' There's plenty of that in the Christian faith, hence so many denominations. It seems that YOU have taken a 'holier than thou' attitude, dissing camo's answers, calling names and generally acting like a two-year old. I guess you have a tender nerve where this subject is concerned, but please be civil here. I've enjoyed your posts in the past, but this latest rant makes you sound like a big TROLL.

Headline: President's Daily Brief Outsourced to News Networks kajun, My neighbors across the street had a vicious rooster a few years ago. My house is a bungalow, with a big window on the front, second story. In the spring, when I opened the window, that *#(%)@^%^*@($#@ rooster would start at 4:00 a.m. One day (a Saturday as I recall as I was home all day,) that *@90%)(@(*$&% rooster started at 4:00 a.m. and crowed (I'm NOT exaggerating--I would never lie to my Scrapplebuddies) EVERY TWO MINUTES until 4:00 p.m. He was sooooooo lucky I don't own a firearm! Thank goodness they got rid of it soon afterwards. Then the neighbor down the road lost all her chickens except one, and her rooster to a coyote. The rooster wouldn't go in the coop anymore and roosted in a pine tree outside their bedroom window. Needless to say, they were looking to get rid of it. They were contemplating giving it to the people across the street from me, but after much pleading and begging from me and the people across the way, she gave it to somebody else miles away. WHEW! Like I said, country life is tough! (ramblin'offtopic) Posted by MargeinMI on 2005-04-05 20:38:30 Top |

Headline: President's Daily Brief Outsourced to News Networks Miss Spelling: Ah Do Grab: LOL! Re: Daylight Savings, my boy catches the bus at 6:45 a.m. He is in the dark all winter long. About two weeks before the time changes, it's starting to get light at that time; and then the time changes. Back in the dark again for a couple more weeks. I do like it staying light later in the summer though. I just have a hard time convincing the dogs that the time has changed, for some reason, they don't understand! Suppertime is suppertime, what's a clock? Update on Uncle Cecil, the Old Man Golden Retriever: He's great! Movin' slow, but adapting nicely. I've had to put him on a leash now that the weather's warming up: he's a wanderer (and a pond jumper). He's so deaf, when he wanders off in the dark at night, he can't be found. I also like to leave him out for extended periods during the day when he can lie in the sun (feels good on his old bones I guess). What a sweetheart he is. He even 'plays' (jealously guards his bone and ball from) with Natasha (Too Cute To Kill). Whitney (Most Wonderful Dog In The World) is taking it in stride. She's very aware of anytime THEY aren't around when she can get my undiluted attention. My mom visted on my birthday and met him. She says he has 'soulful eyes'. I couldn't agree more. I'm going to take some digital shots that I can download to share. Beautiful day today in SE MI! (Sunny, 63 and a lovely breeze to dry up some mud and the roads.) I got some cleaning up done around the yard, and also straightened up my mailbox that's been hit several times by the snowplow and once by the neighbor's teenager. Also helped the neighbor get out the porch furniture! Now we can sit outside in the morning and watch the grass dry so we can get mowing! (Life is tough in the country ;o).) RE: Lack of new posts. My theory is that: a)Maestro Scott has a job beyond serving our blogging needs. b)He's taking a rest after the marathon of posts dedicated to Ms. Schivo. c)He's letting the trolls get bored before posting something absolutely brilliant about the Pope. d)He went on vacation. Don't dispair Newbies! He's left us hanging for quite a while before (maybe two weeks?) I recall a thread (I call it Cassandra's Birthday Thread--same b-day as my boy that's how I remember) that went over 1000 posts. We solved all sorts of computer glitches, exchanged receipies, harvested a few good song paradies, etc. We can still have fun! I just hope Scott knows how much we appreciate this wonderful place to come and share with each other. I know for myself, I feel I know so many of you personally, even though I've never met you. Sometimes I catch myself when I hear some news thinking, "I wonder what Mack would say about THAT!", or "What a great movie, I hope Ms. RW is watching it too.", or "Maybe I should start a chapter of SPAM here in MI. Possumtrot can't cover the whole country!" I lurk a lot, and rarely post on topic, but I'm a Scrappleface junkie and I admit it. I don't want a 12 step program to quit either! Do y'all need another wake up call in the morning? Posted by MargeinMI on 2005-04-05 19:42:22 Top |

Headline: Sandy Berger Guilty, Suffers Wrist Inflammation Hank, I don't think even Congresscritters would actually steal airline food. They're used too MUCH better than that. Miss Spelling, On first reflection, I can't think of any first hand, but second hand: A friend of mine worked with a guy named Richard Face. And yes, he went by the obvious short (don't know physiologically [sp?], personally) version of that name that starts with 'D'. Another was someone my sister went to school with in high school, in Detroit. Her parents had the gall to name her Chanda Leir. Best I can do this late at nite.

DeLay for 'Demon' Infringement Parody Time~~;O)~~ Voters to Republicans (to the tune of "If I Only Had a Brain") Verse: They are burning Bush's mandate Until it might be too late.
