I've emailed several of you, but if you and your family (up to 4 people) could use a free hot meal, Oprah & KFC are offering a free GRILLED chicken for everybody! But you have to go to oprah.com/kfc & get the details & download the free coupon BEFORE 1Opm Central Time TONIGHT, May 6th!

You have until May 19th to redeem your original printed coupon. Check it out!

Maybe if YOU don't really need a free meal you could pass the info on to others who do, and/or print out 4 copies of the coupon & gift them to someone in need.

I've tried the new Grilled chicken (just yesterday) & it's good! If you're someone who just looooves BBQ sauce, heat some up at home & pour it on!

ENJOY!

Just read this over on EOnline.com. Please forgive the typed out link
instead of a quick-clicky-on-ee one, but I'm moblogging & I just don't
get all the Vox features options that I have from my PC. Please let
me know your thoughts. This means YOU Dewitte, DKN, Annie, &
Inspirational Place. And of course any other closet or "on the fence"
fans! 8-)

One of the magazines I subscribe to is Guideposts. Small in size, I
carry one in my purse when I go off to a Dr's. appointment. Gotta have
something to do while you wait, right?

Guideposts shares short stories about real people & how they got
through hard times. How ironic, then, that Jennifer Hudson is on the
cover of the Nov. 'O8 issue.

By now you've probably all heard of the horrible tragedy that's
befallen the Hudson family. I cannot personally fathom the depths of
shock & sorrow that comes with one's Mother, brother, & nephew being
found murdered!

I had trouble sleeping last night & decided to check out Guidepost's
web site from my cell phone in bed. There I found a brief editorial &
comforting thoughts being sent out to Jennifer.

You can add your thoughts & prayers for Ms. Hudson & her family. Go to:
www.guidepostsmag.com/personal-change/edposts-archive/?i=3640

I hope you'll check out that page & maybe add something to the
comments section. I'm planning to go there later today. In the
meantime, my heart grieves along with the family. May they be
comforted by the wave of love being sent to them during these very
difficult days.

May God bless & comfort you, Jennifer. *gentle hugs*

Ok..we've both smooshed in here (again!) between the couch ' your leg (black thing next to Pooh). C'mon Mom, let us climb in your lap. Pleeeaaassse?!?!? :-/

Hey neighbors, are any of you watching the show "Heroes" on Monday
nights? If so, are you confused? Addicted? I'd love to hear what you
think of it!

';No, kitties, you CAN'T sit in my lap right now';. OK, Mom, we're determined to sit here, so we'll squeeze in next to you. Neener, neener, neener!!

Hi neighbors! A couple of you have emailed me, wanting to know if I'm
still alive & well. I want to reassure you that I AM still alive. As
far as the health part is concerned.....well, there's something wrong
with my blood tests which they haven't been able to pinpoint yet. But
until they do I can't have knee surgery. &-/@$#?!!!! VERY
aggravating, but if they did surgery now there'd be a chance that I
could get a blood clot &/or have a stroke! WHEE! Fun times, huh?

Anyway, enough of that boring stuff. I thought I'd toss out MY
Question of the Day. Ready?

If it were possible, what day would you love to live again? Why?

(I'll post my response later). ;-)

I'm against the $85,000,000,000.00 bailout of AIG.

Instead, I'm in favor of giving $85,000,000,000 to all Americans as a
"Dividend".

To make the math simple, let's assume there are 200,000,000 bonafide
U.S. Citizens 18+

Our population is about 301,000,000 +/- counting every man, woman and
child. So 200,000,000 might be a fair stab at adults 18 and up.

So divide 200 million adults 18+ into $85 billion that equals to a
hefty "$425,000.00"

My plan is to give $425,000 to every person 18+ as a "Dividend" Of
course, it would NOT be tax free. So let's assume a tax rate of 30%.

Every individual 18+ has to pay $127,500.00 in taxes. That sends $25.5
Billion right back to Uncle Sam.

But it means that every adult 18+ has $297,500.00 in their pocket. A
husband and wife have $595,000.00.

What would you do with $297,500.00 to $595,000.00 in your family?
Pay off your mortgage - "housing crisis solved"
Repay college loans - "a great boost to new grads"
Put away money for college - "it'll be there"
Save it in a bank - "create money to loan to entrepreneurs"
Buy a new car - "create jobs"
Invest in the market - "capital drives growth"
Pay for your parent's medical insurance =E 2 "health care improves"

Remember this is for every adult U S Citizen 18+ including the folks
who lost their jobs at Lehman Brothers and every other company. If
we're going to re-distribute wealth let's really do it...instead of
trickling out.

If we're going to do an $85 billion bailout, let's bail out every
adult U S Citizen 18+

As for AIG - liquidate it and Sell off its parts.
Sell off the real estate. Let the private sector bargain hunters cut
it up and clean it up.

Here's my rationale. We deserve it and "AIG doesn't" we were not
invited to the last 10 years of "party time" bonuses.

And remember, The this plan only really costs $59.5 Billion because
$25.5 Billion is returned instantly in taxes to Uncle Sam.

I'm KING OF THE HILL! Maibez king of da bukcas?

Ya' know that cat litter commercial where the cats all come over to
one house & have a party while their hoomans are gone?

That happened at my house today.

My guys seem to fly past me & get outside every time I try leaving for
a Dr's. appointment. Most of the time I do not have the time (or the
physical wherewithall) to get them back in & still catch my
handicapped bus. SO today I left the back door open just a skosh so
they could get back in. I was only going to be gone for 2 hours. I
figured it'd be ok.

When I got home, 2 of the neighborhood strays were IN MY HOUSE with
Pooh & Tipper!! They hightailed it out of here pretty fast once they
saw me though.

Once I got the stereo turned down, vacuumed up all the confetti &
pulled down the disco ball I confronted my furry kids. And of course
they were all sweet & innocent...."What? You TOLD us to be nice &
make friends, right??!!" as they both ppbbllfttt'd out some confetti
that was in their mouths.

BUSTED!!! Ok, Voxers. Grounding them doesn't seem to do the trick.
What do YOU think would be an appropriate punishment for such
SHENANIGANS??!!! I am at my wit's end, I tell ya! Sheesh!!!
