Busy Tuesday....

Off to a doctor appointment this morning followed by a haircut and some other errands. See you later...

Other topics such as capital punishment, the Iraq & Afghanistan Wars, Gitmo and it's "torture" are already covered by the chorus of the politically correct within our midst." read the rest
