It is beautiful country for sure but I prefer New England still! The weather is pretty screwed up everywhere. <BR/> I have a friend I talk to pretty much daily and he is experiencing the same thing there. Seasons seem to be turning a bit and getting more extreme. Our fault I am sure.<BR/> It is pretty chilly here right now too. I got my shorts on but had to go back to winter garb but I understand it is going to turn again this weekend. I will take this opportunity to say Happy Memorial day! Have a nice day and chin up!jmsjoinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17631105639275375922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15216381.post-15338112269519659222008-05-23T05:27:00.000-07:002008-05-23T05:27:00.000-07:00I live in the northern part of the state, d.k. liv...I live in the northern part of the state, d.k. lives in the southern part. Hot down there, cold up here--but this is not the usual late May weather. Ususally this is the best time of the year. Usually we have days in the 80's and nights in the 60's--perfect spring weather. Then summer hits mid June and it gets HOT. Right now we're having days in the fifties nights in the high 30's. A couple of weeks ago I turned of my heat, packed away the winter clothes and got out my flip flops. Now it's winter again. What the fuck! I think it's probably fairly hot in d.k.'s territory, but I will check with her today.

Obama criticized McCain and rightly so for not voting in favor of giving the troops added benefits. McCain in his smart ass holier than thou tone said I do not need someone who has not served in the military telling me how to treat the troops and that was the end of that one.<BR/> McCain shut him up and it made McCain look strong. That should have been the beginning and Obama should have shut him up.<BR/> Obama should have responded saying I do not have to be a woman to know how to treat them.Thus shutting McCain up, taking no punches, shutting him up, and appearing wiser as he is and more presidential.<BR/> He has to learn how to fight like theses idiots. Taking the higher ground is just going to be a quicker way out of town. Do I have to teach Obama how to debate on this level? If he does not learn we are already done!jmsjoinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17631105639275375922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15216381.post-61543721505322209112008-05-22T19:40:00.000-07:002008-05-22T19:40:00.000-07:00My question: When are they going to put human bein...My question: When are they going to put human beings on the endangered species list?<BR/><BR/>Americans' greed and lust for oil will be their undoing. We have to have those big, gas-guzzling SUVs. They're not used for work or 4-wheeling. The only time they go off-road is when they're put in the garage at night. And then you have the *ssholes who buy those big pick-up trucks, and use them like luxury vehicles. If you ask them to help you haul your refrigerator or sofa, they say, "I don't haul anything, it might scratch the paint". In Europe and Asia, most vehicles are diesel-powered. Diesels will run on just about anything. Although initial costs are higher, maintainence and repairs are just a fraction of what gas engines require.<BR/><BR/>The stupid idiot Americans will spend a dollar to save a dime.<BR/><BR/>Great pictures, Jim.Brother Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08603553502416272941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15216381.post-52422596780334931792008-05-22T18:36:00.000-07:002008-05-22T18:36:00.000-07:00Sometimes, you just have to shake your head and wo...Sometimes, you just have to shake your head and wonder....Anokhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05675278947623136467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15216381.post-10905353455167315792008-05-22T13:40:00.000-07:002008-05-22T13:40:00.000-07:00Hi Utah You bring out the defender in me!

Expanding the tourist industry would help more average Americans so that will not go. one of my sons when he isn't in these wars lives in Alaska and loves the wildlife, fishing, and pristine environment. All greatly in danger if drilling in ANWR goes as I just heard expressed in that Congress love fest with the oil companies.<BR/> Yeah they want ANWR opened for drilling and no taxes. If we do not do what they advise they say the price will go up. The suns of bitches are threatening us. We are powerless once again! When I first mention $5 gas people said I was crazy. You can bank on $10 gas. Coupled with everything else... Stasy in touch bud.

To be honest I think they should focus on making the state a tourist destination. Their pristine wilderness, and interesting wildlife - including polar bears - would make a strong case for Alaska becoming a summer "hot" spot.

They (Alaskan Politicians) are afraid concern over the Polar Bear will threaten the oil Industry and their economy. It blows my mind! Of course the oil industry will have accidents and at any rate it will affect the Bears.<BR/> You are right they don't care about the environment. They plan on finding a habitable planet but they are not thinking! You are right only the chosen few would go but!

The State of Alaska is going to sue to take Polar Bears off the threatened list? What, they think it will be bad for tourism or something? <BR/><BR/>Really, at the end of the day, we're probably not going to see significant changes to protect the environment. The ENTIRE space program is about finally colonizing another planet once ours is uninhabitable. Unfortunately, only the extremely wealthy will be able to leave Earth, ensuring that their disregard for the environment of their new home will be equally under attack.DivaJoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02534571327558009753noreply@blogger.com
