Thanks to Bret Baier for making it clear that Paul’s position is to the left of the Dumb Bastard.

They are considered local celebrities. The pair will live with an animal-loving family and most likely be a featured attraction at the fall festivals. Plattsmouth ‘ninja...

Sing We Joyous All Together
by Pat_S on December 12, 2011Heedless of the wind and weather, the NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) automated voice joins in the holdiay spirit with its rendition of Deck The Halls. Heck, it’s a lot better than I can manage.
