that video brings a bit of a tear to the eye....
Just hand over the chocolate...back away slowly...far away....and you won't get hurt....

Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.

"My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far I've finished two bags of M&M's and a chocolate cake. I feel better already." – Dave Barry

A balanced diet is chocolate in both hands.

Man, Barbara's looking good, hale and hearty, but damn, it breaks the heart to see the elder George Bush having to use a cane.

It's inevitable that people grow old and frail, but one dislikes seeing it happen.

I think he had surgery - knee? hip? not too long ago. That may be why he's using the cane.

I thought the same thing, that Miss Barbara looked really good, especially so, since she has been so ill lately.

At one point, at the end of a half-inning (3rd, I think), here's W cheering on the outcome . . . and Mom looking into her reading glasses, as she was scrawling onto the scorecard.  The contrast was funny.
"Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of Liberty." - Thomas Jefferson

"All you have to do is look straight and see the road, and when you see it, don't sit looking at it - walk!" -Ayn Rand
 
"Those that trust God with their safety must yet use proper means for their safety, otherwise they tempt Him, and do not trust Him.  God will provide, but so must we also." - Matthew Henry, Commentary on 2 Chronicles 32, from Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible

"These anti-gun fools are more dangerous to liberty than street criminals or foreign spies."--Theodore Haas, Dachau Survivor

Chase her.
Chase her even when she's yours.
That's the only way you'll be assured to never lose her.

I saw that live. I got goosebumps. After Bush threw out the first pitch, people were chanting U.S.A, U.S.A. It was awesome. :cheersmate: :cheersmate:
