Well, I’m going to try out something a little different here.  We’ll see what kind of reaction it gets, and sort of adapt from there.  I’m going to just throw out some random talking points each Tuesday, and you can respond to any or all of them.  Seems easy enough, right?

Well, let’s get it started…

1. I’ve read on here (in the forums) that the owners of McDonald’s in West Liberty purchased the Dairy Cheer building.  While some speculated it was to keep it closed, I’ve now heard it was so that they could open a Kentucky Fried Chicken …

Just sort of checking to see who all checked it out…sound off in our comments section below!!

Talk about why you watched the debate…or why you did NOT watch it.

Also,  be sure to take the poll over there to the right.

Let’s hear what YOU have to say!…

Everyone should head to downtown West Liberty for the Sorghum Festival. (Event schedule listed below)

…and eat a barbecue sandwich…and some soup beans…and maybe a ham and biscuit….ooooo! and a funnel cake…

…and walk around the booths and pick you up some good stuff…maybe some homemade lye soap, or some other goodies…

…and try to forget about the economy and elections and depressing stuff like that for the next 3 days.

In my opinion, you should just take it easy this weekend and soak in the spectacle that is the West Liberty Sorghum Festival.

Here’s a schedule of activities this …

I was gone all last week to the beach, and my brain is still in beach-bum mode.

I’m pulling it all together now, though, and I’ll debuting a new feature or 2 here shortly.

So, new postings are coming soon…if I don’t head back to the beach again!!…

Myself and my breakfast crew are not sure what we will do if it is closed for good.  We were all in training to eventually take our place at the “old folks” table…but now, where will we go for biscuits and BLT’s??…

Well, I didn’t really need a study to figure this one out…but maybe it will help dhunley come to terms a bit. 😉

The study counted 935 false statements in the two-year period. It found that in speeches, briefings, interviews and other venues, Bush and administration officials stated unequivocally on at least 532 occasions that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction or was trying to produce or obtain them or had links to al-Qaida or both.

“It is now beyond dispute that Iraq did not possess any weapons of mass destruction or have meaningful ties to al-Qaida,” according to

These are a couple of polls you can take. They ask you some questions and then list the candidates who most closely align with your answers. Kind of fun!

This one is only 11 questions

This one is a bit longer

Enjoy!

When you finish, maybe leave a comment as to who you were actually supporting vs. who the polls suggested for you. You can use a fake name…nobody will ever know. 🙂

I THOUGHT I was for John Edwards, but my answers on the first one gave me a 3-way tie between Clinton, Obama, and Dodd. The 2nd one …
