This has been hashed to death all day on Thursday.
I have so blasted many memes, I had to put this in the tweet section.

Memes & Other Fun Stuff
Germany???????? No, no, no. I’m more Irish than anything else followed by French and Spanish. The German in me is all low, not that stick up the…. Prussian.
This is why I have dogs. Although, right now, the house is between dogs.
American Staffordshire mix, but we’re not going to argue. I haven’t met one of these who was truly vicious. So many are so sweet.
Can you imagine doing that for fun?
On their backs. Imagine that.
And now for the business portion of the post borrowed from Tuesday:
Guidelines for posting and discussion on this site were outlined by our host, WolfM00n. Please, review them from time to time.
The discourse on this site is to be CIVIL – no name calling, baiting, or threatening others here is allowed. Those who are so inclined may visit Wolf’s other sanctuary, the U-Tree, to slog it out. There is also a “rescue” thread there for members of the Tree to rendezvous if the main site goes kablooey. A third site has been added for site outages of longer duration.
This site is a celebration of the natural rights endowed to humans by our Creator as well as those enshrined in the Bill of Rights adopted in the founding documents of the United States of America. Within the limits of law, how we exercise these rights is part of the freedom of our discussion. In that spirit, though, threats of violence real or hypothetical are out of bounds.
Fellow tree dweller the late Wheatie gave us some good reminders on the basics of civility in political discourse:
- No food fights.
- No running with scissors.
- If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
And Auntie DePat’s requests:
If you see something has not been posted, do us all a favor, and post it. Please, do not complain that it has not been done yet.
The scroll wheel on your mouse can be your friend. As mature adults, please use it here in the same manner you would in avoiding online porn.

MATTHEW 13:16-17
16But blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear. 17Truly, I say to you, many prophets and righteous men longed to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.
SATIRE!
SOUND UP!
It does happen.
Nebucadnezzor or however it’s spelled.
Have a good weekend!
