Hiroshima, 6th August 1945

 Went for a morning drive around Shelter Island and came across a gaggle of news truck parked on the end by the Harbor Police hangout. I did not know what the gathering was for.

Apparently the locals were using the Yokohama Friendship Bell Building donated by our sister city as a stage to commemorate the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.  Good for them.

I look forward to seeing them all at the Pearl Harbor Memorial in December.  War is hell, that's why you should not start them.  You start a fight, we will finish it.  It's the American way.

Here's Toby Kieth explaining the concept....

This big dog will fight
When you rattle his cage
And you'll be sorry that you messed with
The U.S. of A.
'Cause we'll put a boot in your ass
It's the American way 

 Carry on.

 

UPDATE:  Happy Peace Through Victory Day!!

I Like Toast.
French Toast on a boat.....even better.

Thanks Bob!!

"All Summer Long"

It was 1979*, my thoughts were short my hair was long
Caught somewhere between a boy and man
She was seventeen and she was far from in-between
It was summertime in Northern Michigan
Ahh Ahh Ahh
Ahh Ahh Ahh

Splashing through the sand bar
Talking by the campfire
It's the simple things in life, like when and where
We didn't have no internet
But man I never will forget
The way the moonlight shined upon her hair

[Chorus:]
And we were trying different things
We were smoking funny things
Making love out by the lake to our favorite song
Sipping whiskey out the bottle, not thinking 'bout tomorrow
Singing Sweet home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet home Alabama all summer long

Catching Walleye from the dock
Watching the waves roll off the rocks
She'll forever hold a spot inside my soul
We'd blister in the sun
We couldn't wait for night to come
To hit that sand and play some rock and roll

While we were trying different things
And we were smoking funny things
Making love out by the lake to our favorite song
Sipping whiskey out the bottle, not thinking 'bout tomorrow
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long

Now nothing seems as strange as when the leaves began to change
Or how we thought those days would never end
Sometimes I'll hear that song and I'll start to sing along
And think man I'd love to see that girl again

[Repeat Chorus x2]

Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long
Singing Sweet Home Alabama all summer long

Obama Won’t Speak In-Person at Boy Scouts’ 100th Anniversary Celebration But Will Appear on ABC TV’s ‘The View’ 

 
Monday, July 26, 2010
 
By Penny Starr, Senior Staff Writer
 
(CNSNews.com) – President Barack Obama, the honorary chairman of the Boy Scouts of America, will not speak in-person before the group on Wednesday at Fort A.P. Hill in Virginia, as part of the organization's 100th anniversary celebration. However, the president is sending a videotaped message to the scouts for Wednesday, the same day he will be in Manhattan to tape an appearance for ABC TV’s talk show “The View.”

I mean, it's not like they have anything in common anyway.

Dumb Ass. 

president Zero just flew his dog in a private jet to join the family on vacation.  Now, he wants his employees to cut their travel so as to reduce our carbon footprint.

President Barack Obama wants federal workers to cut down on business travel and commuting by car as he seeks to reduce heat-trapping emissions produced by the federal government.

You can't make this crap up.  Zero and his entourage take Maine by storm and he comes up with this gem.  Here's the deal Zero...I can't afford to take my family on vacation, let alone take the fricking dog. I can't afford to play a round of golf.  My health care just doubled and your plan is not in effect yet. The economy sucks and folks don't pay their bills....my bills.  Listen dumb ass, how's about you focus on doing some damn work for a few months straight and stop prattling on about how the countries problems are some other guys fault.   

 

Monday's Pun(s) !!!
