was in a crash mode for a couple of weeks but am now fixed.  I wonder what happened to all the hot headed  die-hard current events folks?  I really got a kick out off their carrying ons ( gees that is bad grammar).    I see you and cygne and maybe one other only.  what happpened to grim and taylor and team  etc and that guy from the netherlands I think?  well  I guess we can carry on without them ...cause current events do happen all the time.  I hope this does not turn into the uglies of debate tho and allows posters to give their take on the subject at hand.   yada yada yada  lol   Sally 

Had out of town company and got to ignore a lot of the news last week   .  No wonder I feel happier and lighter hearted today.  lol 

very cute.  used it to send to the perfect person.   lol  Sally 

Taylor and Grmn.   Super to see you back here.  When the boards changed I started this one thinking you would come back to post all your infor that kept the former board hopping .  lol.   Many of us had a hard time getting back on here.  I wonder how good ole Valeria and teamrocket and the guy from the Neatherlands are?   Anyway, glad to see the familar names again.  

 My Soninlaw has relatives ( many) who either lost everything due to Katrina or had bad damage to homes and belongings due to wind and/or water.  But fortuately no loss of life.   So   I sent  money directly to the victims and I  say prayers and hope... even if it is really too much to comprehend.  

If you come across any good news RE:world events - don't hesitate to post it.    Sally  

Did you note the disclaimer  if you had to sign in again to get here?  The show -being for information and entertainment purposes only and not  to give answers for medical or mental problems.  Humm?  

Well this board in the past sure did give out information and was very entertaining.  Especially when the frequent debate(s) appeared   lol.    

 Goodness...I hope this is not your only "human contact... 

Did you happen to run into team or the dutchman ( peter was it?) on your way in here?  And good ole Valeria...lol   lol     Well, better late than never...  Actually knowing victims of Katrina who lost everything puts a very different understanding of the situation for me  unlike the war which I have no one directly involved and believe should have never started and now should be ended... 

Oh well,   welcome back and enjoy your stay   lol  lol    Sally 

sorry...but over l2 hours of uninterrupted coverage on all main channels  in the Detroit area for this Rosa Parks funeral is too much.  a quiet, dignified woman like Rosa deserved a ceremony befitting a classy woman.... not some outspoken  orations from those with  political agenda and too much loud wind...It's dark out and there is still coverage of the coffin on the road to the cemetery ...Good grief.  Way too much.   

As I started this topic with this new board I thought I would come here to complain. lol  Sally 

When I started this board back in July of 05  I thought it would be a good place to view my opinions on world events...but  I never seem to have the time and the inclination to do that...now I am just disgusted at the antics of Wash. DC and those in charge there...I think the war is a disaster and should have a calendar with a withdrawal date posted...I think that  being puppets for the oil  companies is something disgusting and annoying.  I think there can never be peace abroad until we can meet the needs and find justice for our own citizens.  I think equality for any minority group has to be earned by responsible living and not by noise and  demonstration which only fuels the fire of prejudice.  I think we are on the road to destruction if we fail to accept the fact  that we need to protect our natural resources and keep our air and water and land pollutant free.  I think the outrageous monies paid to Hollywood stars and rock musicians and drug taking athletes is  wrong and only serves to reflect what we value as a people.  Dreadful.  I think that  integrity is a word without meaning to most of the people  governing and running our top companies.  And I post these ideas just to clear them out of my mind.  I have no desire to discuss them here.  I hope you have enjoyed this board since I first started it.  Sally  

AH   YES.  WHEN I STARTED THIS BOARD BACK IN JULY OF 05 LITTLE DID I KNOW THAT FINALLY  WE WOULD  COME TO THE UNDERSTANDING THAT THE REST OF THE WORLD IS AFFECTED BY OUR ACTIONS AND IT IS TIME FOR CHANGES.  TOO LONG HAVE WE  SUFFERED UNDER THE DIRECTION OF LEADERS THAT DO NOT LISTEN TO THE PEOPLE WHO MAKE UP OUR  COUNTRY , PEOPLE  WHO HAVE INTELLIGENT AN STRONG OPINIONS AS AMERICANS.

NOW--ALL I CAN POST IS GO HILLARY.   WE ARE READY.  WE ARE WOMEN.  WE ARE STRONG AND IT IS TIME FOR CHANGE.  TIME FOR THE USA.  TIME FOR ITS PEOPLE.  TIME FOR THE WORLD TO SEE WE CAN AND MUST DO BETTER.  YOU WILL HELP US TO DO THIS.  YOU HAVE MY SUPPORT AND MY VOTE AND I WILL WRITE TO YOU TO LET YOU KNOW THIS.  BUT AS THIS BOARD IS ABOUT WORLD REACTIONS AND EVENTS...LET THE WORLD REJOICE IN THE PROSPECT THAT THE USA CARES AND WILL MAKE THE CHANGES TO KEEP THIS WORLD HEADED IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION...SOMETHING IT HAS NOT BEEN DOING FOR A VERY LONG TIME      HILLARY IN 2008!!!         LOVE YA   SALLY

   THE TIME HAS FINALLY COME.  WOMEN OF AGE AND EXPERIENCE AND GREAT INTELLIGENCE TAKE NOTE.  HILLARY CLINTON FOR PRESIDENT. SO LONG WE HAVE  BEEN UNDER THE DIRECTION OF THOSE WHO DO NOT LISTEN AND DO NOT COMPREHEND THE  NEEDS OF THE PEOPLE HERE AND IN THE REST OF THE WORLD. PERHAPS THIS BREATH OF FRESH IDEAS AND EARNEST INTELLIGENCE AND  A BRILLIANT MIND WILL LEAD US IN A BETTER DIRECTION.   AND IT WILL BE AN   OLDER WOMAN  WHO DOES THIS FOR US.  THIS IS A GREAT DAY FOR IT BRINGS NEW HOPE TO A TIRESOME WEARY NATION.    HILLARY IN 08.
