I feel like the most special Mom ever!!!!
« on: May 09, 2008, 12:58:47 PM »
I went to some garage sales this morning with a friend of mine and when I got back, there on my doorstep was a box marked "1 800 FLOWERS."  My son, who is deployed to Iraq, took the time out to make sure I had a dozen roses on Mother's Day.  I started crying right then and there.

Now, someone tell me our troops are evil with no heart.  I DARE YOU!!

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

I'll lie and say I am just to get a date with your son.

Kidding! I'm a little old for him I think. *sigh*
