Thank you, Jud, but I believe that Twilight Zone theme is in your head, dear.  Sort of like tinnitus, only with a tune.

What's really boring is people making statements that make no sense, whatsoever.  Sigh!

This is not intended as a political statement, but it just seems to me that a member of the Supremes should at least have sat on a JP bench at some point.  
 
In 1976 when I was sworn in as a CSR (certified shorthand reporter) the oath included "to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America."  I said to the judge, "But I've never even read the Constitution."  He said not to worry about it, just say I do.  I later read it, and there's all kinds of stuff in there I didn't know about.  Housing soldiers, all manner of stuff.
 
I hope Future Justice Kagan is better at upholding the Constitution than a lot of people in office.  Or me, for that matter.

Maybe Jud, Sam and Barry should be doing the questioning instead of the Senators. You are right, Sam, Elena Kagan will be the next Supreme Court judge. She seems to be fair minded and brilliant. I wasn't trying to make a political statement when I made that post.

Can anyone tell me one positive thing the federal government has done under the current administration?  We are an embarrassment around the world.  We have turned our backs on our friends and treated our enemies like royalty.  We had 17 or so "friends" offer to help with the oil spill, however, our government ignored their offers.  I bet they won't be so quick to offer next time!  I feel so bad for our children and grandchildren because they are the ones that will be trying to clean up this Obama mess.

Kagan is from the same mold as Obama.  Say what the masses want to hear now and ignore them later.  Nothing more than a popularity contest.  I just wish the Republicans had the stomach to treat the Democrat candidates in the same manner as the Democrats have treated the Republican candidates.  The Supreme Court is supposed to follow the Constitution, not rewrite it. Yesterday was a prime example.  The 2nd Amendment is very clear about the right to keep and bear arms, yet the 4 liberal justices wanted to rewrite the Constitution yet another time.  Kagan has a liberal history and has no judicial experience, unless you count her losses at the Supreme Court as experience.  She was on the wrong side that time, too.

Kagan's a lefty, a liberal, and Sessions is very bright (but name calling is a lefty attribute).  The liberals have the votes 12-7, so we need to dispense with the dog and pony show and vote her in, and get on with hope and change.  We do have hope, and there is going to be change.  Come on November.  We're running out of other people's money to spend!

I can't even believe we are wasting our time with Kagan. She us TOTALLY unqualified, by any measurement. But that seems to be the theme of this administration. So I give points for consistency.

Hey Jud.  Hey Barry.  Jump in here.  It must be Saturday noon-3 pm.

I hope you political junkies are watching the Elena Kagan judiciary hearings. She seems to be handling with ease some difficult questions. She has a great sense of humor which comes through. Senator Lindsey from North Carolina is such a polite, southern gentlemen compared to Jefferson Sessions from Alabama. You would think the state of Alabama would be ashamed to elect someone who is so rude and ignorant. He could have asked her the same questions in a polite way instead of being so belligerent.

John, when I wrote my comment I was thinking that you are probably the only one of us who doesn't make mistakes (and wondering how you manage to do that). When I wrote my comment, I was unaware of the unwritten rules of cyberspace. For some strange reason your comments remind me of a sixties bumper sticker "Colorless green ideas sleep furiously." Chomsky

Kathleen, I am more than willing to cut you some "grammer slack" ... in fact, such practice is already included in the unwritten laws of cyberspace:

In the past I admit I was a bit pro-detail about typos and mizspellings. Gotta run and grab a couple of snoozes before I hook up with a certain inlovidual later on.

Animals are dedicated!

Yesterday afternoon, we had a full fledged storm at the shop.  Raining about as hard as possible and probably 60mph+ winds.  Rain was blowing all the way through the shop.  Lightening took out our computer UPS, but the computer survived.

For the past week or so, we have had a dove on a nest on our outside lift.  Heavy steel and in the sun all day.  Got to be way over 100 where he/she is.  I looked out during the middle of the storm and he/she was still on the nest.  We had one there last year, too.  You would think with all the trees in the neighborhood that she could find a better place for a nest.  At least, the nest is safe from cats!  Doves are pretty cool.  One mate for life and the male and female take turns on the nest.  Nature works in wondrous ways.

Our guest room has twin beds, so you'll all be nice and cozy.  We call one cat The Anvil because he is immovable once asleep.

Lynell, we'll have to color coordinate. The 4 cats who own me are gray, gray & white, Siamese, and kind of a brindle color. And the 4 dogs who will also accompany me are white, gray, tan, and black and white. No extra accomodations required since they all sleep on me!

Sure, Jud.  What color cat would you like?  We have orange and chamois colors.

Charlotte, it is hard to hit the right keys with sweaty fingers.
We in the Houston area are being told this morningbto prepare for flooding. Seeing news reports of Lowes, Home Depot, and WalMart packed with people buying storm supplies.
Lynell, got an extra room?

Since most of us make small typos or minor mistakes, why don't we just agree to ignore them. Most of the time we can figure out what our classmate meant to say. In the future, don't correct any mistakes you make unless what you typed changes the meaning in some way. After all, the print on this website seems to be getting smaller everyday.

Kathleen, sorry about your fracture.  Let's hope it heals fast and properly.

Charlotte, you are sooo right.  It's raining everywhere in Dallas just about, except over our house.

Barry, In my world travels, I have been to Presidio. I wonder how hot it is their today.

Oh, you said ON Presidio.  I thought you said IN.  My comment might apply to ON Presidio, as well!

Why would anyone go to Presidio for any kind of activity?  That is one depressing town.  I'm sure your mother's front porch is not that way, but it's probably the only place in Presidio that is fit for human habitation.
