let's talk about Elks (and some other things)

So, today is Veterans Day. There will be parades and protests against the war. Our fine president is also going to take advantage of today as well. He plans on using Veterans Day to lash out at Democrats. While I am against the war in Iraq, I am all about supporting our soldiers and our veterans. Today shouldn't be used to justify bad intelligence and whatever else is up that fool's sleeve. Just leave politics out of today's festivities and honor our veterans.


That being said here's something funny that was sent to me this morning:

A tragic flood this morning destroyed the personal library of President George W. Bush. The flood began in the presidential bathroom where the books were kept.
Both of his books have been lost.
A presidential spokesman said the president was devastated, as he had almost finished coloring the second one.
The White House tried to call FEMA but there was no answer.


And in other news, I joined the Elks last night. That place rules. You can still smoke in there because it is a private club, they have the cheapest drinks in town (where else can you get call drinks for $2.25?), rockin' burgers on Wednesday night, and a badass pool. Also they do a lot of good charity work and give back to the community. One of the people that joined last night was the sassiest 80 year old I've ever met. She kept me laughing all night. I can't wait to see her again. Tonight is steak and enchilada night (Mmmmmmm!), so I think we will go check that out. Not much into vegetarian dishes are they? But then again, there aren't that many places you can drink in the name of charity.
