Makes sense to me!

Got this in an email this morning.

Letter to the President:

Patriotic retirement:

There are about 40 million people over 50 years old in the work force - pay
them $1 million apiece severance with stipulations.

1) They leave their jobs. Forty million job openings - Unemployment fixed.

2) They buy NEW American cars. Forty million cars ordered - Auto Industry fixed.

3) They either buy a house/pay off their mortgage - Housing Crisis fixed.

4) They buy stock. Voila! The stock market rebounds with no help from the Feds.

New fiesta color

This is coming out this summer. Can't decide if I like it or not but I am sure I will have to have some of it. My poor cabinets.

My new ride

Well, it's not brand new. I guess they call them preowned. It's a 2005 with 38,000 miles and loaded, everything but GPS. I usually know where I am going anyway. I love it but I am a little nervouse driving it. No one ever hit my beat up, hail damaged camry, so I am sure they are taking aim at my shiny new red car.

More Basketball

Dancing with the Stars

Just watched Monday's show on the internet. It looks to be an interesting season. I wasn't too excited when I first heard the names of the stars but it is getting better. Shawn Johnson is really good and so is Melissa Rycroft (Bachelor's dumpee). I would love to see her win. Julianna's boyfriend is pretty good and so is the dude that was on sex and the city. I also caught up on Desperate Housewives. Wonder if Edie is going to get killed off since she is leaving the show! Her husband gives me the creeps. Now I just have to figure out how to watch ABC and NBC at 9 tomorrow night.

The Bachelor

I love the way Melissa told him off. What a jerk! Hope Molly gives him the hell he deserves!

Basketball tournaments

We spent last week watching five of our grandkids playing basketball. It is post season tournament time for the little ones and the high schools are in the playoffs. Tyler won Thursday and Friday but lost to Kingfisher on Saturday. I was surprised they made it that far, but glad they did. Baseball season started Monday, so he is already geared up for that. Keipher is still playing. They play Muskogee Friday night and it should be a tough game for them to win. They are in the area playoffs. CJ took second in his tournament as did Gracie. Clay's team took first. Chuck is their coach and had promised them they could shave his head if they won. So Sunday afternoon at the post season party, they shaved his head. It was a little ragged so it had to be touched up later. I am so proud of all my kids, but I am especially proud of the way Chuck coaches these kids. He teaches fundamentals. They don't just run up and down the court and shoot the ball. They have learned to pass, run plays, shoot correctly, not be selfish with the ball, and most of all, they have been taught that there is no disgrace in losing. He doesn't yell and scream at them. He squats down to their level and talks to them with respect. He doesn't coach for his own ego. He coaches to teach and I love that about him. And there is not a single player on his team that he doesn't love. He gets that from his Dad.
