Independence Weekend Thought For The Day...

"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on
what to have for lunch.

Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote."

Benjamin Franklin

pat said...

o shit..me thinks I lost the concept there dougie. ok...so I'm a sheep, not a lamb.

pat said...

happy happy birthday Ric!

DRL said...

first of all,it is good being the wolf.
second, I have said, if you need it bad enough, I will give it to you. but one of the most deplorable things is to take something of someone's. I am sorry for the loss of your canoe (look at that word longenough, it don't make any sence, ha). I hopw the carma god rolls him in the middle of a bunch of hungry leaches.

Me,too:)DRL

Pat, I also hate thieves. As Doug would say, they are the assholiest.
On the bright side now you have an excuse to upgrade and go canoe shopping.

DRL said...

Pat, up here there are not many canoe's. We mainly use rafts or kiaks or is it kyaks, what ever, I still cant spell, but look(as Mat has suggested shopping) for an ocean kyak or kiak or kyack, I hate it when I do that. they have a rudder and it is easier to paddle. you can get them in 2 seaters. I still like the idea of you finding the scumball who stole yours and beat them about the head and shoulder, then take your canoe out for a paddle, yea

DRL,Hit-the-spellcheck.It-works.Not-that-I-need-it-or-notin:)Laugh...O.K.?

DRL said...

Joanna, that spell check stuff is way over my head, lol, ha

pat said...

yes DRl, they left my oars, in which to slam into his face in my dreams....sorry, I'm really not violent...but F him!!

DRL said...

Pat, I am not violent as well. I would rather talk my way out of anything except when it comes to my family, friends(anyone who needs help), or property. I do hope you find the idiot who took it.

pat said...

Hey, I have to tell you all. You made me feel so good about the stolen canoe incident. I still have my favorite canoe though. I had two, some assholes stole one, but I still have my good one. TY for all nice thoughts.

pat said...

just watched Thelma and Louise for about the 7th time..love that flick.

DRL said...

Then the joke is on him(or her) for stealing the not favorite one. I will still whoop them though. oh yea, boot to the head!

I never liked thelma and louise, strange flick.

mat said...

Hey Drl, of course Thelma and Louise is strange, it's a chick flick. But what do I know I liked Napoleon Dynamite.And yea Pat you still got your favorite canoe, thats cool.

DRL said...

Mat, I love Nepolian Dynomite. Remember it was filmed about Idahoans, in Priston Idaho. It is so funny how they hit us on the nose. The sand dunes are just north of me. I have the cd and watch it pretty regular. but not thelmea and luese

Pat I love Thelma and Louise too, I think we watched it on the same night the other day!!! I named my puppies after thelma and louise (I don't mean dogs either)
