Hey, Arky, listen good--he's going to talk about the sorry state of education.

18378. arkymalarky - 2/1/2006 2:32:51 AM

Yeah, I can't wait. Anytime people ask me how I feel about NCLB I just tell them I'd be fine with it if it were retroactive to its creator.

3 for me:

So the United States of America supports democratic reform across the broader Middle East
[...]
Democracies in the Middle East will not look like our own
...[no kidding!]
the nations of the world must not permit the Iranian regime to gain nuclear weapons.

I won, didn't I?

18382. thoughtful - 2/1/2006 3:23:04 PM

No mags, I won as I picked the single word repeated most frequently. Yeah!!!

Now you all can go ahead and crown me!

Good news Judith...very good

18385. anomie - 2/2/2006 12:15:00 AM

Ever notice how when Bush uses the word "bipartisan", he really just means the dems should shut-up and color? I'm not sure he knows what the word means.

18386. judithathome - 2/2/2006 12:31:54 AM

Thanks to all of you who expressed happiness at my good news...I was really stressed over this the past week.

18387. anomie - 2/2/2006 12:40:01 AM

I'm happy for you Judith.

Makes my small ordeal today very minor. I've stressed for two weeks waiting to have a tooth pulled. It's over. No pain. And I think the valium is reducing my anxiety right now to the point where I can post a few comments here. I feel like an idiot being anxious about the dentist.

Good to see you all doing well.

18388. judithathome - 2/2/2006 1:26:51 AM

Oh, Anomie, I undersatnd completely! I'm a dentaphobe, myself!

18389. anomie - 2/2/2006 2:18:29 AM

It might help to tell you that I really didn't feel any pain. Not even that brief acute zinger from the needle. I don't know how they do it. And then of course it's just the pressure after that, and that wasn't bad either.

It's the anticipation that's hell.

Good morning, everyone--I deleted the cartoon I posted #13383 because it is inappropriate.

18391. wonkers2 - 2/2/2006 4:50:46 PM

Good morning, ma cherie. Why not re-post it for a couple of days so we can see what you thought was inappropriate?

18392. Magoseph - 2/2/2006 5:51:12 PM

Well, mon chéri, if I had your e-amil address, I could send it to you.

18393. Magoseph - 2/2/2006 5:51:30 PM

e-mail

18394. ronski - 2/2/2006 6:58:31 PM

judith,

Good to hear the good news.

18395. judithathome - 2/2/2006 7:25:20 PM

Thanks, Ronski...it turned out just like you wished for me. ;-)

18396. thoughtful - 2/2/2006 11:07:01 PM

Not good, not good.
Hubby went for his cat scan today and got a call back right away.

His PSA is up (test for prostate cancer) and they found a nodule on his prostate.

He'll see the urologist on Tuesday, and I suspect they'll want to do a biopsy. He had a psa done less than 6 mos ago and it was fine. Hopefully, it'll just be high because of his infection and hopefully the nodule will be nothing, as it is in 50% of the cases. But still....

Man, I hate the waiting.

18397. judithathome - 2/2/2006 11:16:15 PM

Oh, Thoughtful, I'm so sorry to hear that...we went through that about 15 years ago with Keoni and it turned out to be benign. I know that's no comfort but hopefully, it will be as you suspect and just due to the infection.

Keeping my fingers crossed for a good outcome!
