About Me
- Name: Snave
- Location: La Grande, Oregon, United States
I am a native eastern Oregonian, and have lived here 50 of my 62 years. I left at 20, but was back by age 32 to be near my parents to help them in times of need. I don't fit in politically here because I view things from a decidedly left wing perspective... but that's o.k. because I love the people, I love the area and for the most part I like living here. I enjoy family time, listening to music, reading books, traveling, bird watching, hiking, backpacking, watching movies, keeping up on politics, watching sports, sitting at the computer so much I get sores on my ass, and playing music... if you need a band for your party or celebration, let me know; I play keyboards and sing for a rock and roll band, and we do mostly "classic rock". (I also like to play guitar and bass and other instruments, but those are for my private enjoyment only!) I am mainly an agnostic/skeptic, but would consider myself spiritual. I work in schools and in clinical settings as a speech/language therapist. It is enjoyable work and it pays some of the bills. I have a rather unpredictable sense of humor, which can get me in trouble at times, but hey, is life worth living without laughter? I think not!

Gee...I guess we all know to whom that refers!
The Creed of the Loyal Bushies?
Ah Ben Franklin.
My favorite Union leader and establisher of public service organizations (post office, libraries, fire services etc.)
This was a man that saw the future and did what he could to help make it.
Apparently our government has some very hardworking leaders. Who knew?
Who Hijacked Our Country
Well I'm still trying to figure out how he became President a 2nd time... what then does that make the people that voted for him?
Also, please note another pending question... what does that make the people that still believe in his lies.
Oh, are we talking about King George, excuse me for jumping the gun.
"Amen" to the comments of "lets talk".
All those fingers being piously pointed at George Bush, should really be pointed at those who put him in office, the American people, who voted him in not just once, but twice.
This point bears repeating not just once, but twice, and again and again and again and again and again........
I was out and about the other day running errands, and while looking for a parking space, I saw a woman sitting in her black Lexus SUV. It had W '04 sticker on it, which wasn't that unusual (this is Dallas, after all), but she had gone a step further and added another sticker: "I Support President George W. Bush." Now, how dumb is that? And to ADVERTISE it!
Gak.
So, I parked my Ford Focus, with my Obama '08 sticker, next to her. :)
That is a great quote. Another Franklin quote that fits our situation is
"Energy and persistence conquer all things."
