Lunch and a Show

Happy Saturday, y'all! Hubby is home and survived two days of drowning and one day of fire fighting. Not bad for an old guy. He leaves Tuesday for Kazakhstan and will be gone for about a month, he thinks. At least now it will not be a frozen tundra. When he was there in December/January, they were experiencing the coldest winter in modern history with temps around 40 below. Yikes.

Today I'm meeting my old childhood friend for our monthly lunch together. Love it. Then tonight my guys and I are going to see "Dreamgirls" at the Country Playhouse. I love Motown, still, after all these years so I look forward to this story which is based loosely on the story of The Supremes. I know my guys are looking forward to it as much as me but that's the breaks.

In this political season, the fun continues. Yesterday proven fibber Joe Wilson and his not covert spy wife Valerie Plame trotted out before the National Press Club luncheon and declared they were filing a lawsuit to avenge the injustices they have suffered at the hands of our current administration. Even Wilson had to admit it will be an unhill battle. The special prosecutor has wrapped up the investigation and no indictments were handed down by the grand jury, except for Scooter Libby, who they claim perjured himself in testimony. Most believe it is just the mistaken recollection of events and not deliberate misstating of the truth. Hey, I don't remember what all happened step by step last week, much less 3 years ago. The Wilsons have been exposed for the fraudulent political operatives they are and now they want to cry. They are the toast of the Democrat's social scene in D.C. and their twin boys have been spotted running around airports stating their mom is a spy and their dad is an important man. Alrighty then. They have a new book deal, after Val's 2.5 million dollar deal collasped under the no-Rove-indictment spotlight, so now we must hear of their woe again in the name of book publicity. The 9/11 Commission is on record exposing Joey as a liar and the truth of Val's CIA career. This lawsuit will be thrown out of court before it is allowed to proceed but these two will press on. For people who just wanted their privacy, they sure do enjoy being celebrities. At anyone's expense who dares get in the way of their agenda. Lie down with Chuckie Schumer and gang, arise with fleas.

FYI - the new Snapple White Tea? Yummy.
