Monday Morning Friends Report, May 5, 2008
What's happening in some people's lives
STEVE - went turkey hunting and captured some morels.
ALICE - has gone with friends to Alabama to visit other friends.
BUD - survived a milestone birthday with family. Great fun! Received a peace lilly for a present. Wow, do I need one of those!
SPARTY - is playing a lot of golf these days. You know the old saying: Make par while the sun shines.
MARSHA - says she's coming to Michigan in July. Look out world!
FELIX - continues to be crazy busy and says he passed up a chance to go see Hillary (he lives in Indiana, you know) and went to a NASCAR event instead.
SCOT - came up with this palindrome: Do nine men interpret? Nine men, I nod.
PAT W. - made a birthday cake "from scratch." It was triple chocolate. Delicious. It's all gone now.

What some people are talking about
DIG S - commenting on Bill O'reilly's claim that the U.S. did not, in fact, invade Iraq: "Frickin' brilliant! Yeah, the 'No Spin Zone' " CLICK
DASHMANN - sent around a reminder to friends that it's now five years since the "Decider" decided that the MISSION was ACCOMPLISHED. That was May 1, 2003. Says DASH: "No further comment necessary."
SPARTY - has a very salty opinion of the Jeremiah Wright controversy:
Try as I might to avoid being manipulated by the cable "news" people, I haven't been able to avoid their collective masturbation all over Jeremiah Wright. We've just had the bloodiest week in Iraq this year, gas prices are causing genuine hardships for many people, the economy limps along, but the cable talking heads continue their efforts to convince the easily convinced that the most important issue of the day is Jeremiah Wright. And I've fallen into their trap, too, as evidenced by my need to send this email before putting the wraps on another day.

MIKE CARROLL ALMOST FROM CARROLLTON - sent this.
Saint Peter was manning the Pearly Gates when forty people from Flint showed up.
Never having seen anyone from Flint at heaven's Door, Saint Peter said he would have to check with God. After hearing the news, God instructed him to admit the ten most virtuous people from the group.
A few minutes later, St. Peter returned to God, breathless, and said, "They're gone!"
'What? All of the those people from Flint are gone?' asked God.
'No!' replied Saint Peter. 'The Pearly Gates!'
JERRY - sent this.
