Our will is to keep the torch of freedom burning for all. To this solemn purpose we call on the young, the brave, the strong, and the free. Heed my call, Come to the sea. Come Sail with me." -- John Paul Jones "Pardon him, Theodotus; he is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature" --George Bernard Shaw, "Caesar and Cleopatra" "And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music."--Friedrich Nietzsche "A kind Providence has placed in our breasts a hatred of the unjust and cruel, in order that we may preserve ourselves from cruelty and injustice. They who bear cruelty, are accomplices in it. The pretended gentleness which excludes that charitable rancour, produces an indifference which is half an approbation. They never will love where they ought to love, who do not hate where they ought to hate."--Edmund Burke “You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours.”--General Sir Charles Napier "Μολὼν λαβέ" -- Leonidas "Blogito Ergo Sum" -- Neptunus Lex Amazon AssociateFor the Effort!Winnar!

Reminds me of the old Jack Benny radio shows where he had the running joke bit with the Mexican who rhymed everything ending each sentence with: Seesister, meester, etc.:”Do you have a brother–Si” What’s his name?–Sy.” One skit had Benny bumping into him on another frequent Mexican excursion and asking him why his identical twin -with whom he was alike in everything–looks, dress, etc.–had 13 kids and he had only one. The ans? “Seeeenorre,” he replied, “I have a TV!”
Chicago is banking on some of its more prominent citizens screwing the rest of us so much to make up for their rather poor showing.
OT6F, thanks! I needed that laugh, although it’s not a bit funny. I’m awfully ugly when I cry though.
Lex, there was never any doubt that the South would rise again
Number 7? Must have missed our neighborhood in the survey.
Do not believe everything you read in the papers.
I figure they only surveyed newlyweds. Sadly that is NOT my house, condition, or average. Drat!
So Houston is No. 1, eh? Not surprised, really. Lotta smiling faces down here, even in a down economy. A lot more, probably, than there are in California, in spite of your lovely weather.
Y’all come, now. We’ll have Ramos Gin Fizzes for brunch.

I guess they don’t count the times Chigagoans screw us taxpayers.
Quality over quantity, thank you very much.
