Conservative thread: We're still smiling!

What??? It's scaring you how? Just curious.

Because he's right and what he says scares me. I prefer to keep my head in the ground.

Tink - good luck!! Hope it all works out for you!

I stayed there one time and one time only
The rooms are large, but the furnishings were like the military TLQ's
The sofa in the room was a big green plastic thing... YUCK
The little gift shop is just like the PX and doesnt charge tax
it is totally run by the DOD
Its inexpensive, but it felt like staying on a base to me....

Hmmm. We were there two years ago. It's wasn't extravagant but, neither are some of the Disney rooms. Now, I've stayed on base in Europe ( and boy were you staying on base).....but, what do you expect for a kitchenette for $60 a night? I would definitely stay at SOG over any of the mods or values. Same price, larger rooms and walking distance to the Poly. We jumped on the monorail to MK and Epcot.

LVN/LPN is licensed vocational/practical nurse. ADN/ASN is Associate Degree of Nursing/Associate of Science in Nursing. That would mean I'd be an RN after passing the NCLEX.
BSN is Bachelor of Science in Nursing. With that I can go into the military as an officer and a nurse.

I appreciate McCain and respect what he went through for this country, and while I would have rather had McCain than Nobama, I held my nose when voting. The only thing that made me excited was putting Palin on the ticket.

I wanted to go to school to get my BS in nursing and become a certified nurse/midwife. I had my last two at home with a midwife. Number four was a surprise and that was the end of school.

I haven't had a chance to go to school. Supported spouse who was full-time associate pastor for five years at a church that never paid him.
This is the first time in our marriage that I haven't worked. I was WAH but I told boss where to put it; he doesn't want to pay me what he owes me.

I need to look into student loans; it's the only way I can pay for college. I've tried for scholarships and can't seem to get any. I don't even get credit for being a ward of the state when I was younger. DH is such a chicken when it comes to letting me go to school.

What happens when a fly falls into a coffee cup?

you mean my coffee isn't supposed to have flies in it?

Starbucks always has flies in it because their coffee smells like burnt death.

I am so excited! My nieces high school and colorguard are going to perform at California Adventure on Friday. They are excited, too. It'll be right before the parade.


About ME, we used it a couple of times and thought it was great. The second time we used it, it was a little crowded, but I liked not having to lug everything around the airport with three little ones in tow.

Can you all tell I come bearing good news? Well, I do! My mom made it through her first surgery this morning fine, although she's still a little woozy from the anesthesia and sedative they put her on. The surgeon had the area looked at under a microscope in the OR immediately, and he said there was no sign of a mass and, as far as they could tell today, it was non-cancerous! They'll still send it off to be tested at a lab, but he expects it to come back fine. Praise God, is all I have to say. I was so worried she'd have to deal with this on both sides. Thankfully, it doesn't look that way.

I am so glad that things went well.

I'm not sure what all that means but you go girl!

And SD - is right! Thanks for letting us know your good news.

About ME - don't me like that! I'm about to be their prisoner in a little over two weeks!

About McCain - he had me when he put SP on the ticket - he lost me forever when he ingratiated himself to Obama in that 30 minute 'meeting' [groveling/compromising what little conservativism he had left] AND, at the same time, remained silent when his running mate was being dragged through the mud by his own staff.
He got a lot of money from me [I've never given to a political campaign before] he got a lot of time from me [a week in NC working on his campaign] - I don't regret that I did this but I will not do it again if he's in charge of something because I just don't trust him anymore. Stick me, I'm done. He's a wonderful person, I'm sure but I expect a little more from a leader....

I completely agree with you! He was far better than BO, but still not my first choice. I'm upset at how he treated Palin.

That's neat! I wish that I would have been able to use a midwife

I've only had Starbucks once. I get my coffee at Joe Muggs when I go to Books-A-Million.

When/if I get a drink I get it from Forza's. My acquaintance works at Barnes and Noble Cafe and she gets discounts on drinks. Sometimes she brings me stuff but most of the time not. I don't really care as I'm not a coffee connoisseur.

Thank you all for your prayers and good thoughts. My mom doesn't use computers really, but I've told her about you all and she has been so touched that y'all care enough to pray and think positively for her. She wanted me to thank y'all for her. It means a lot to her.

Praise God! I'm so happy for your mom...and you. I will continue to pray for her.

Okay, I just don't see what people see in Johnny Depp. I don't get it. I really don't think he's that good looking.

Do I get kicked off now?

(Sorry for jumping in so late here...)

..but, I know what you mean. I love Captain Jack, but I'm not the biggest fan of Johnny Depp. I just find Captain Jack so...I don't know...but I think he's great.

Speaking of coffee, I caused quite the scandal when I told some from my group that the coffee at WDW had quite a bad reputation. Have no fear, though, I will be totin' some of Memphis' own Ugly Mug...

Got this in an e-mail from a friend

I am totally passing this along....that was hilarious!

though. I mean, you'll be at WDW soon!! You'll get the honor of being my first visitor (I hope, anyway).

and maybe your second and third and fourth -- you'll be pushing me away! ['no, really, Debbie, I do have to go to work now!']

I love your siggie!!!

you mean my coffee isn't supposed to have flies in it?

you say the darnedest things!

And about Hugh Laurie - but not in the marrying sort of way. I'm afraid he might relate too well to either his House or Bertie characters - and, for entirely different reasons, are scary!

 

[Soarin08]

and maybe your second and third and fourth -- you'll be pushing me away! ['no, really, Debbie, I do have to go to work now!']

Nah, that'll be ok!!

 

[Tink & Goofy]

I'm probably the only one here, huh?

 

[Soarin08]

Nope!! I'm still here!!

 

[Tink & Goofy]

Isn't it almost midnight there?

 

[Soarin08]

In 21 minutes.

But I stay up till midnight listening to Glenn then go to bed.
