War

Onward Christian Soldiers!

It seems that our country knows what is best for the rest of the world.

Or, consider this article.

My daughter is very sick and fortunately this has distracted me from what I perceive to be the stupidity of our government. I was able to hear Donald Rumsfeld tell the world how many countries support our attack this morning. Of course those 36 countries would probably cease to exist without major assistance from the US.

Over the weekend we sent a deal to Ford Credit seeking approval for financing. The computer automatically sent the deal to a special terrorism unit. Big brother is watching. Maybe big brother can see me flipping him off right now!

Eat, drink, and be merry for tomorrow we could all die. You might not even need to pay your bills anymore!!

Which will you take, the Red pill or the Blue pill?

I prefer the WHITE PILL with which I relive only the best moments of my life for the rest of eternity.

What's that you say? The WHITE PILL is not an option? I guess I'll take the BLUE PILL as it is much easier to live with than the RED PILL.

Jeremy & Jennifer-

I just wanted to let you know that I totally concur with the JD's weblog comments (www.foldedspace.org) about this year's "Spring Fling":

"Last night was the MNF group's annual sweetheart banquet (delayed this year from Valentine's Day). Jeremy and Jennifer, with Jeff's help, prepared a fantastic feast for sixteen. This is the fourth or fifth year the Gingeriches have been holding this event, and I think it was the most successful yet. The conversation was good, the food delicious, and the pace relaxed. We didn't get to bed til one o'clock, though."

I think both of you have been blessed with the gift of hospitality. To put on such a successful event while dealing with sick kids (and feeling under the weather yourselves) is truly incredible. Your menu selection, decorating ideas, plan of attack, and your overall vision and determination made it possible. It was like I was working with Emeril and Martha!

Thank you for including me such a fun tradition. I will be your sous chef anytime!

Thanks for the kind words. I do believe that this year went the smoothest of all (even with the most people ever and in spite of all the sickness). We couldn't have done it without help from you Jeff. And Kris' assistance with the decorations was also very vital to the overall goodness of the evening. And I don't want to forget the mix master: thanks for the tunes JD!

This is normally one of the highlights of my year. Unfortunately I wasn't able to fully enjoy it this year as I wasn't feeling well. Next year will be even better!
