Post your concerns in this thread!
I am concerned! I am full of concernation! I have read, AND I even saw this on TV, that Barraq Obama has a terrorist middle name. And drinks latte's. Lattes! Now I don't personally have any problems with terrorist middle names, because middle names can't get on my kid's school bus or force them to marry gays (I don't think?).

I don't think!


BUT! What about those latte's? I mean, look at Osama bin Ladin. His middle name is "ben", which is about as patriotic as Ben Franklin or Ben & Jerry. So does this mean Obama will be turning over our school buses to terrorists?!?! OMG!

I am concerned!!! What are you "concerned" about?

Sometimes I'm even consternated about it.

Only republicon homelander cronies are deficient in concern about thread.

7. Thanx for the edumacation. It explains why the textile mills and
clothing manufacturers, the Fruits of the Loom, have left the US.

I too have this concern, which is why I have been hoarding a sewing box jammed with every color imaginable since I could thread a needle - there's even some dental floss in the box for those tough big-button jobs. Should I post the collection on E-bay to raise funds for the tank or should I wait a while yet? Alas, no American-made Singer, either. Guess I'll need to get the Chinese knock-off out of month balls. However, my 1940 Kirby (with attachments) is still going strong, as long as I don't suck up any thread or dimes. In the 90s I was offered a brand new one by the Kirby man to part with it.

Oh, and BTW, when we're done in those ME countries, you won't be able to find a single craftsman putting together a hand-dyed, hand-tied rug. Can't wait to see the bidding go up on the vintage ones. It'll be a real bubble and a loss that the elite have not contemplated. They'll need to consider something less opulent and more representative of exploitation to cover their hardwood floors.

13. Do you know who first tried to get us to go Metric? President Johnson. I don't mean "Lyndon"
Andrew Johnson signed a law in 1868 trying to officially convert the US to the metric system.

But that's not why they impeached him.
