Just not overly in a posting mood and besides, I dig that baby picture.
I am working on the post about bathrooms across france and other fun stuff so hold yer bloomers on!
And I am sending a BIG ASS shout out to my Uncle Charlie for his magnificent email the other day. Who […]

You know you missed me copping stuff from DailyKos, oh yes you do. I know it. You can’t fool a “slykick” like me! So, as an early HOLIDAY present, here’s a little gift from a cool guy named Bill in Portland Maine who posts something on Kos called “Cheers & Jeers”. […]

1. Eating almost an entire package of iced oatmeal cookies totally negates the 3x a week Curve visits so if you’re going to do one, really, don’t do the other. Knowing how addictive IOCs are to me, you’d think I’d bag the Curves workout but you’d be wrong! I tossed what was left of […]

It gets messier and messier, doesn’t it? While it may appear that I am gleeful about it, I am actually very sad that it has all come to this in our country. A horrendous war for reasons that shift with the wind, over 2000 US lives and God only knows how many Iraq […]

I love this day so much more than actual Christmas day. Why? Well, presents, food, family and presents. (and food, yo!) And of course, the cool, fun family that I love. So, to sum up: Holiday joy for Lisa = food, family and presents! (Are you catching the drift of what’s important […]

Enjoy!

And I’m thinking the Uni is sending me a message. So, I shall try to listen:

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body […]

… my newest guest blogger (and fan of the Snarkypants blog-o-rama) - my uncle Charlie!
Welcome, Unk!
I am almost sure that the snarkitude comes from his side of the family since the other side, while loving and fun, aren’t overly uh, you know. (Except for Dani who is truly a category unto […]

An excerpt:
A year ago, it was clear that before the Iraq war, the administration suppressed information […]
