Holding Pattern

Some of the similarities of what is going on here, and what was going on in the States a year ago are fairly amusing.

The current President has historically low approval ratings
People are asking said president to step down and start elections early
Economic Crisis
Talks of Impeachment
Parliament divided so evenly that nothing is getting done (Think senate and house)
Young rising star politician who people think may be the next President

Sounds like a blast from the past right?

Also, I'm sitting here waiting for someone that was supposed to call me 45 minutes ago. He isn't answering his phone, so I'm just waiting here until he gets back.

  1. a few things have changed here since you've left.
    1. Our nation's capital has moved to Albequrque, NM.
    2. The nation's currency is no longer dollars, but spaghetti sauce.
    3. Vehicles no longer run on gasoline, but spaghetti sauce.

    Thought you should be kept abreast of the goings-on back home.

  2. Hi Sarah: From your post the other day, I was thinking the same type of grocery cart. Mikes would have to have the black and red plaid for the liner, so nothing could fall out on the trip back up the hill.

    Bobby: Glad you are keeping Mike up on current events - Thanks!

  3. Happy Birthday, Pat! If Mike had a mail order bride, he could get a regular shopping cart and that way someone can steer. Mike, sorry I am using these comments to talk to your mother.

  5. Mo, Mail the boy some food??? He should have been at your house for Fat Tuesday. Giordana seemed to enjoy it. Great picture!

    Sarah, Thanks for the Birthday wishes!! Some of the regular grocery carts come in metal and some of like the Big Lot ones come in that hard ugly orange plastic. Mike, which would you prefer?
