Make a little Book for your Pocket
This is so geek....
If you go to PocketMod.com
You will find many free templates that you can have in your little book.
I find they are great to collect to-do list, links to visit, phone #, and many other useful tidbits of info to put in your pocket rather than clog your brain.

French Waffles
I had a Brain Storm 1st thing this morning.
Making Breakfast I was all set to make French Toast.
Then I glanced at my waffler and thought,
Why not put it in there. ??
My waffler has a clip that allows you to close and clip it shut.
This feature surpasses the problem of the crust of the bread holding the waffler open.
I used French Bread which fit nicely into the two bays of the waffler.
I hope you have this capability.
I dipped the bread and sprinkled cinnamon on the bread and popped it in the waffler.
After steam stops coming off the concoction, it is done.
The results was a fine waffled crust on the outside and a great custard inside.
It was a wonderful Breakfast and I am sure to try it again.
Give it a try.
Let me know how you like it?

I really wonder what gives us the right to wreck this poor planet of ours.

Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion. I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward.

Human beings are chimpanzees who get crazy drunk on power. By saying that our leaders are power-drunk chimpanzees, am I in danger of wrecking the morale of our soldiers fighting and dying in the Middle East? Their morale, like so many bodies, is already shot to pieces. They are being treated, as I never was, like toys a rich kid got for Christmas. (via Eddie C)

True terror is to wake up one morning and discover that your high school class is running the country.

There is a tragic flaw in our precious Constitution, and I don't know what can be done to fix it. This is it: Only nut cases want to be president.

People in the News; Naomi Wolf
Naomi Wolf
4/11/2007
Saw Naomi Wolf on MSNBC this morning.
She was very clear and honest speaker on the now raging issue of,
Racism,sexism,Men,Women and history.
I think MSNBC should seek her out to replace Imus the Blow-Hard.
I did check out the site,
Urban Dictionary
I must say I am out of the loop when it comes to how vile
"we" have allowed our citizens to refer to one another with out protest.
A new baseline has to be drawn.
Women deserve better!
Weather it is a Women in Chicago, Sudan or Saudi Arabia.
Eyes have to be opened and changes must be forced.
The Womens Basketball team are displaying the Right Stuff.
Women should demand as much and nothing less granted.
