At Last! We are Finally in the Forest....
Edited on Sun Mar-29-09 07:49 PM by FrenchieCat
And it looks mighty green to me.


But I'll be damned,
some of us are hitting our heads against trees just because they are there,
or even worse,
we look up only to find some perched in those trees throwing down coconuts!





In addition, the forest is pretty much set up with traps,
and every step where we don't simply step in them,
has much more importance than some of us care to admit.




I think we can make immediate demands on this President and we can also determine that he should be doing this or that, but we had better believe, and I think most of us really do very well know, that political limitations are a real situation with real consequences, and accompanied by a very real Right Wing leaning media who acts as expert coconut throwers.



So although there is a long held belief by some on the Left that we can remake the world in the vision we want. I believe this to a point as well, but I also know for sure it cannot all be done at once, not even in 8 years, because of all of the variables that we do not, sadly, control....like coconuts and booby traps.


So yes, we are finally back in the forest, but that doesn't mean we are home free.

2. If some can't see the forest for the trees........
then they may as well look closer. LOL!

5. I like the forest!
Good to be home!

Now, about your cat herding problem... good dogs can do the trick, eh? Wolves are even better. Wolves like the forest, cats are desert animals, that tells ya something.

7. Eight years trying to get out of the wilderness
and we end up in the forest!

I guess we're not out of the woods yet.

I need a Pina Colada.
