I will admit to making a mistake - I turned on the television to eat breakfast by - and found the flurry over a young woman's pregnancy and the Media's take that this is of National Significance. Don't worry about Red China and Taiwan, don't even think Russia might be more Superpower than we would like, don't think that our wounded Vets become more alone the farther they get from their units and other vets. Nope, just worry about Abstinence Education versus Sex Education and what happens, and who know when and why weren't we told.
The media wasn't told because they don't have any idea what makes great Presidents, just which pictures and news will sell advertising time. They gloss over the Democrat's Attack Blog that started the rumors. Personally, I know I never had sex education and my mother insisted on Abstinence, although she will admit that her own last pregnancy was not planned but very welcome. Anyway, I am not the model of propriety and am not holding myself up to be followed but I am certain having become disgusted with this morning's brain mold slime from the media - they haven't a clue about the Presidency, what is important and who is qualified for the office. They do know how to sell products that one hardly ever needs.
I spent Labor Day trying to get started on the last quarter of the year. Just think, I am so far behind I need help catching up. I finish the evening ironing the clothes, my mother taught me well when I was in high school, of course, we don't sprinkle anymore since we have steam and surge irons and permanent press. I did get mailings and bill payings prepared, need to find a notary for the CMP paperwork - the M1 is in the works, after I send it out I just wait for delivery. My wife and I rolled coins and counted bills from the donations at the coffee stop, I think I need to stop being United Methodist Men's Treasurer next year - my personal books are six months behind - and my wife told me three times to wash my hands because of how dirty the money was and one never knows where it has been. Yes, dear. Actually I don't do 'Yes, Dear" I do "Ney, Yobo"
Well, back to going to make the world a better place for prisoners, churches, people in general and those wonderful women that have loved and bring forth the better future in their babies.

That is such a beautiful picture of your wife, and child.
Earl: You're good. I had forgot all about sprinkling while ironing. My mother used to do that when I was young and your words brought the image up instantly in my mind's eye. It was a pleasant experience.
Thank you for that.
All The Best,
Frank W. James
Thanks for a little normality Earl- too much gotcha, last minute OMG crap, etc. Common sense and grounding is what works!
I like Obama's comments regarding this piece of idiocy: (1) his noting that his mother was 18 when he was born (so much for the age issue); and (2) family members are off-limits (so much for the shock value). Let's stick with politics and not stupid stuff. That young lady has enough on her plate with her mom running for U.S. veep; she needs her space ... and in Alaska she can probably find it.
someday you'll have to tell us the story of how you met your lovely wife.
