Barb's newest Butterfly additions to the world of pretty
The above butterflies were all raised by Barb and released. The top is of course a Monarch on her Clematis. The second is a Male Tiger Swallow Tail, and the third is a giant swallow tail. A while back I posted the picture of an ugly Caterpillar and this is what emerged after a couple of weeks in a cocoon.

This is a Tuesday Morning Update from one of those pesky anonymous bloggers that generate such ire in the Democratic Ranks. I am always glad to provide fodder to their cannons that hope to move your eyes away from the problems in Washington. I refuse to join the bandwagon of people that abuse the President, but will point out when I think what he says is not what he does. I think it is wrong when people say George Bush, John Kerry and Barack Obama are idiots or stupid. The office of the President is one complicated mother and as big as the staff needed to run that office is, there is just one or two dumb things that happen each day no matter who is at the helm. Remember that even Ronald Regan had a Marine LtCol trading weapons for money, hostages and or drugs. Our great "Centrist" Billary preyed on an intern. Who the heck knew what Jimma was up to. Hell, he was a Nuclear Physicist as well as a peanut grower. I just love LBJ's line when it is reported that he said, "I've stepped over more pussy than JFK has had".
I had hoped that when Barack said "change", it would fit my standard of when I hear someone say they are going to automate a process. It should cost less, work better, have the intended consequences outweigh the unintended and follow the guidelines established. So far, the biggest change is that the current Government has managed to drive up the national debt by 10% to somewhere above 10 Trillion dollars. I had hoped that we would have more jobs not more people getting the unemployment dole.
Murphy's Other Laws
Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright
Until you hear them speak.
He who laughs last, thinks slowest.
A day without sunshine is like, well, night.
Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine.
Those who live by the sword get shot by those who don't.
Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.
Just remember ... If the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off.
The 50-50-90 rule: Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting
Something right, there's a 90% probability you'll get it wrong.
It is said that if you line up all the cars in the world end to end,
Someone would be stupid enough to try to pass them.
If the shoe fits, get another one just like it.
The things that come to those that wait may be the things left by
Those who got there first.
Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and
He will sit in a boat all day drinking .
Flashlight: A case for holding dead batteries.
The shin bone is a device for finding furniture.
A fine is a tax for doing wrong. A tax is a fine for doing well.
When you go into court, you are putting yourself in the hands of 12
People who weren't smart enough to get out of jury duty.

I think I need to go listen to that speech everyone keeps talking about.
ReplyDeleteThe person I want to seriously listen to what he reads on the telepropmter is Barry himself. He talks a game from the middle of the field and plays it in the liberal end zone. Which speech should we listen to? the one to the kids or the one Wednesday night where he is going to tell us again how important it is to have National health care reform? MUD
