NEW PRESIDENT FOR 2012
HILL COSSY HAS DECIDED TO BECOME A WRITE-IN CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT IN THE YEAR 2012...
HERE IS HIS PLATFORM:
(1). ANY USE OF THE PHRASE: 'PRESS 1 FOR ENGLISH' IS IMMEDIATELY BANNED. ENGLISH IS THE OFFICIAL LANGUAGE; SPEAK IT OR WAIT OUTSIDE OF OUR BORDERS UNTIL YOU CAN.
(2). WE WILL IMMEDIATELY GO INTO A TWO YEAR ISOLATIONIST ATTITUDE IN ORDER TO STRAIGHTEN OUT THE GREEDY BIG BUSINESS POSTURE IN THIS COUNTRY. AMERICA WILL ALLOW NO IMPORTS, AND WE'LL DO NO EXPORTS. WE WILL USE THE 'WAL-MART'S POLICY, 'IF WE AIN'T GOT IT, YOU DON'T NEED IT.' WE'LL MAKE IT HERE AND SELL IT HERE!
(3). WHEN IMPORTS ARE ALLOWED, THERE WILL BE A 100% IMPORT TAX ON IT COMING IN HERE.
(4). ALL RETIRED MILITARY PERSONNEL WILL BE REQUIRED TO MAN ONE OF THE MANY OBSERVATION TOWERS LOCATED ON THE |
SOUTHERN BORDER OF THE UNITED STATES. THEY WILL BE UNDER STRICT ORDERS NOT TO FIRE ON SOUTHBOUND ALIENS.
(5). SOCIAL SECURITY WILL IMMEDIATELY RETURN TO ITSORIGINAL STATE. IF YOU DIDN'T PUT NUTTIN IN, YOU AIN'T GETTIN NUTTIN OUT. NEITHER THE PRESIDENT NOR ANY OTHER POLITICIAN WILL BE ABLE TO TOUCH IT.
(6). WELFARE. -- CHECKS WILL BE HANDED OUT ON FRIDAYS, AT THE END OF THE 40 HOUR SCHOOL/WORK WEEK, THE SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF A URINALYSIS TEST FOR DRUGS, AND PASSING GRADES.
(7). PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES -- STEROIDS? THE FIRST TIME YOU CHECK POSITIVE YOU'RE BANNED FROM SPORTS ... FOR LIFE.
(8). CRIME -- WE WILL ADOPT THE TURKISH METHOD, I.E., THE FIRST TIME YOU STEAL, YOU LOSE YOUR RIGHT HAND. THERE IS NO MORE 'LIFE SENTENCES'. IF CONVICTED OF MURDER, YOU WILL BE PUT TO DEATH BY THE SAME METHOD YOU CHOSE FOR THE VICTIM YOU KILLED: GUN, KNIFE, STRANGULATION, ETC.
(9). ONE EXPORT OF OURS WILL BE ALLOWED: WHEAT; BECAUSE THE WORLD NEEDS TO EAT. HOWEVER, A BUSHEL OF WHEAT WILL BE THE EXACT PRICE OF A BARREL OF OIL.
(10). ALL FOREIGN AID, USING AMERICAN TAXPAYER MONEY, WILL IMMEDIATELY CEASE AND THE SAVED MONEY WILL HELP TO PAY OFF THE NATIONAL DEBT AND, ULTIMATELY, LOWER TAXES. WHEN DISASTERS OCCUR AROUND THE WORLD, WE'LL ASK THE AMERICAN PEOPLE IF THEY WANT TO DONATE TO A DISASTER FUND AND EACH CITIZEN CAN MAKE THE DECISION AS TO WHETHER, OR NOT, IT'S A WORTHY CAUSE.
(11). THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE WILL BE SAID EVERY DAY AT SCHOOL AND EVERY DAY IN CONGRESS.
(12). THE NATIONAL ANTHEM WILL BE PLAYED AT ALL APPROPRIATE CEREMONIES, SPORTING EVENTS, OUTINGS, ETC.
MY APOLOGY IS OFFERED IF I'VE STEPPED ON ANYONE'S TOES ..... NEVERTHELESS....
GOD BLESS AMERICA!
SINCERELY, HILL COSSY

JUST A THOUGHT. . .
HEY LADIES, HAVE YOU BEEN SHOPPING FOR A BRA LATELY? I WAS THE OTHER DAY. WHAT AN EXPERINCE! USED TO BE YOU COULD JUST GO IN AND BUY A BRA, IT WAS LIKE BUYING A TOWEL. THERE WERE 4 DIFFERENT KINDS. EASY! RIGHT? WRONG!
NOW YOU GO TO THE BRA DEPARTMENT AND YOU ARE SO RILED UP BY THE TIME YOU ARE DONE. IT TAKES DAYS BEFORE YOU MIGHT FIND THE ONE YOU WANT TO BUY. I'M NOT JUST TALKING PADDED OR UNPADDED, I TALKING PADDED WITH WIRES, PADDED WITH OUT WIRES, PADDED WITH PUSHUPS, PADDED WITH OUT PUSHUPS BUT WITH CLEAR STRAPS. NOT PADDED WITH FRONT CLOSURE AND PADDED WITH FRONT CLOSURE. NOT ONLY DO YOU HAVE TO DECIDE IF YOU WANT PADDED, WIRED, PUSHUP OR ECT. YOU HAVE TO LOOK THRU ALL THE SIZES. THERE ARE BIG ENOUGH ONES THAT YOU COULD MIX UP A SALAD IN ONE SIDE AND MARINADE A ROAST IN THE OTHER. THEN THERE ARE THE ONES THAT ARE CLOSER TO MY SIZE THAT KINDA LOOK LIKE THEY DON'T HOLD NOTHIN BUT IT MIGHT SURPRISE YOU. THEN YOU HAVE TO DECIDE IF YOU WANT HOT PINK WITH HEARTS ON IT OR ROYAL BLUE WITH CLOUDS. I AM SORTA AN OLD FASHOINED SOUL; I TEND TO PICK BLACK OR WHITE. AFTER SEACHING THRU THE KMART BRA SECTION FOR WHAT SEEMED LIKE MONTHS, I FOUND A BRA! I WAS SO EXCITED. IT JUST HAD A LITTLE PADDING, NO PUSHIPS, NO WIRES, AND REAR CLOSURE, EVERYTHING I WANTED IN A BRA! I WAS SO EXCITED! THEN I REALIZED THAT THE ONLY COLOR IT WAS IN WAS THE SAME BRIGHT GREEN THAT THE HIGHWAY GUYS WEAR. NOW I LIKE COLOR JUST AS MUCH AS THE NEXT PERSON BUT THAT’S A LITTLE TOO MUCH. I THINK THOSE COLORS SHOULD BE EITHER ON THE HIGHWAY GUYS OR IN THE FLOWER GARDEN. I DUG AND DUG AND DUG. NONE OF THAT PARTICULAR |

KIND WAS TO BE FOUND IN MY SIZE IN A DECENT COLOR.
I JUST ABOUT SAT DOWN IN THE ISLE AND CRIED. I WAS SO DISAPPOINTED.
SO I PICKED MY SELF UP AND DIDN'T CRY CAUSE I AM A REAL WOMAN. I CAN OVERCOME THIS DILEMMA. I FOUND A BRA THAT WOULD SURFICE. I WOULD JUST HAVE TO TAKE A LITTLE PADDING OUT OF IT (I NEED NEW SOFA PILLOWS ANYWAY). I COULD EASILY REMOVE THE UNDERWIRE WITH MY TRUSTY PLIERS; I COULD EASILY SEW THE FRONT CLOSURE UP AND PUT IT ON OVER MY HEAD AND AS FOR THE PUSHUPS, AND WELL THEY MAYBE WILL WORK FOR PADDING ON MY BIKE SEAT. PROBLEM SOLVED. WHEEW! SO GLAD I DON'T HAVE TO SHOP FOR BRAS EVERYDAY.
YOU GUYS ARE LUCKY YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO THRU THE WHOLE PROCESS. MAYBE THEY WILL GO OUT OF STYLE LIKE THEY DID IN THE 60'S. THAT WOULD BE GREAT FOR ME AND NOBODY WOULD BE ABLE TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE ANYWAY. ENUF SAID, JO
****************************
SO VERY TRUE
* I THINK PART OF A BEST FRIEND'S JOB SHOULD BE TO IMMEDIATELY CLEAR YOUR COMPUTER HISTORY IF YOU DIE.
* NOTHING FEELS WORSE THAN THAT MOMENT DURING AN ARGUMENT WHEN YOU REALIZE YOU'RE WRONG.
*I TOTALLY TAKE BACK ALL THOSE TIMES I DIDN'T WANT TO NAP WHEN I WAS YOUNGER.
*THERE IS GREAT NEED FOR A SARCASM FONT.
* HOW ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO FOLD A FITTED SHEET?
*WAS LEARNING CURSIVE REALLY NECESSARY?
*MAP QUEST REALLY NEEDS TO START THEIR DIRECTIONS ON #5. I'M PRETTY SURE I KNOW HOW TO GET OUT OF MY NEIGHBORHOOD. *OBITUARIES WOULD BE A LOT MORE INTERESTING IF THEY TOLD YOU HOW THE PERSON DIED.
*BAD DECISIONS MAKE GOOD STORIES.
* YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT WILL STRIKE, BUT THERE COMES A MOMENT AT WORK WHEN YOU KNOW THAT YOU JUST AREN'T GOING TO DO ANYTHING PRODUCTIVE FOR THE REST OF THE DAY.
* I'M ALWAYS SLIGHTLY TERRIFIED WHEN I EXIT OUT OF WORD AND IT ASKS ME IF I WANT TO SAVE ANY CHANGES TO MY TEN-PAGE RESEARCH PAPER THAT I SWEAR I DID NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES TO.
*I HATE WHEN I JUST MISS A CALL BY THE LAST RING (HELLO? HELLO? DAMN IT!), BUT WHEN I IMMEDIATELY CALL BACK, IT RINGS |
NINE TIMES AND GOES TO VOICE MAIL. WHAT DID YOU DO AFTER I DIDN'T ANSWER? DROP THE PHONE AND RUN AWAY?
* I HATE LEAVING MY HOUSE CONFIDENT AND LOOKING GOOD AND THEN NOT SEEING ANYONE OF IMPORTANCE THE ENTIRE DAY. WHAT A WASTE.
* I KEEP SOME PEOPLE'S PHONE NUMBERS IN MY PHONE JUST SO I KNOW NOT TO ANSWER WHEN THEY CALL.
*I DISAGREE WITH KAY JEWELLERS. I WOULD BET ON ANY GIVEN FRIDAY OR SATURDAY NIGHT MORE KISSES BEGIN WITH MILLER LITE THAN KAY.
*SOMETIMES, I'LL WATCH A MOVIE THAT I WATCHED WHEN I WAS YOUNGER AND SUDDENLY REALIZE I HAD NO IDEA WHAT THE HECK WAS GOING ON WHEN I FIRST SAW IT.
* I WOULD RATHER TRY TO CARRY 10 PLASTIC GROCERY BAGS IN EACH HAND THAN TAKE 2 TRIPS TO BRING MY GROCERIES IN.
*THE ONLY TIME I LOOK FORWARD TO A RED LIGHT IS WHEN I'M TRYING TO FINISH A TEXT.
*WE ALL HAVE A HARD TIME DECIPHERING THE FINE LINE BETWEEN BOREDOM AND HUNGER.
*HOW MANY TIMES IS IT APPROPRIATE TO SAY "WHAT?" BEFORE YOU JUST NOD AND SMILE BECAUSE YOU STILL DIDN'T HEAR OR UNDERSTAND A WORD THEY SAID?
* I LOVE THE SENSE OF CAMARADERIE WHEN AN ENTIRE LINE OF CARS TEAM UP TO PREVENT A JERK FROM CUTTING IN AT THE FRONT. STAY STRONG, BROTHERS AND SISTERS!
* IS IT JUST ME OR DO HIGH SCHOOL KIDS GET DUMBER & DUMBER EVERY YEAR?
*THERE'S NO WORSE FEELING THAN THAT MILLISECOND YOU'RE SURE YOU ARE GOING TO FALL AFTER LEANING YOUR CHAIR BACK A LITTLE TOO FAR.
*AS A DRIVER I HATE PEDESTRIANS, AND AS A PEDESTRIAN I HATE DRIVERS, BUT NO MATTER WHAT THE MODE OF TRANSPORTATION, I ALWAYS HATE CYCLISTS.
*SOMETIMES I'LL LOOK DOWN AT MY WATCH 3 CONSECUTIVE TIMES AND STILL NOT KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS.
* EVEN UNDER IDEAL CONDITIONS PEOPLE HAVE TROUBLE LOCATING THEIR CAR KEYS IN A POCKET, FINDING THEIR CELL PHONE, AND PINNING THE TAIL ON THE DONKEY - BUT I'D BET EVERYONE CAN FIND AND PUSH THE SNOOZE BUTTON FROM 3 FEET AWAY, IN ABOUT 1.7 SECONDS, EYES CLOSED, FIRST TIME, EVERY TIME! |

HISTORY OF THE 4TH OF JULY
“THUS MAY THE 4TH OF JULY, THAT GLORIOUS AND EVER MEMORABLE DAY, BE CELEBRATED THROUGH AMERICA, BY THE SONS OF FREEDOM, FROM AGE TO AGE TILL TIME SHALL BE NO MORE. AMEN AND AMEN.”
SCHOOLCHILDREN IN AMERICA LEARN THE BASIC HISTORY OF THE EVENTS SURROUNDING THE FOURTH OF JULY, BUT THE DETAILS OF THIS MONUMENTAL OCCASION IN AMERICAN HISTORY SOMEHOW FALL THROUGH THE CRACKS.
ALTHOUGH JULY 4TH IS CELEBRATED AS AMERICA’S OFFICIAL SPLIT FROM BRITAIN’S RULE AND THE BEGINNING OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION, THE ACTUAL SERIES OF EVENTS SHOW THAT THE PROCESS TOOK FAR LONGER THAN A SINGLE DAY. TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION! THAT WAS THE BATTLE CRY OF THE 13 COLONIES IN AMERICA WHO WERE FORCED TO PAY TAXES TO ENGLAND’S KING GEORGE III WITH NO REPRESENTATION IN PARLIAMENT. AS DISSATISFACTION GREW, BRITISH TROOPS WERE SENT IN TO QUELL ANY SIGNS OF REBELLION, AND REPEATED ATTEMPTS BY THE COLONISTS TO RESOLVE THE CRISIS WITHOUT WAR PROVED FRUITLESS. THE ORIGINAL RESOLUTION WAS INTRODUCED BY RICHARD HENRY LEE OF VIRGINIA ON JUNE 7, 1776, AND CALLED FOR THE CONTINENTAL CONGRESS TO DECLARE THE UNITED STATES FREE FROM BRITISH RULE. ON JUNE 11, 1776, THE COLONIES’ SECOND CONTINENTAL CONGRESS, MEETING IN PHILADELPHIA, FORMED A COMMITTEE WITH THE EXPRESS PURPOSE OF DRAFTING A DOCUMENT THAT WOULD FORMALLY SEVER THEIR TIES WITH GREAT BRITAIN. THE COMMITTEE INCLUDED THOMAS JEFFERSON, BENJAMIN FRANKLIN, JOHN ADAMS, ROGER SHERMAN AND ROBERT R. LIVINGSTON. THE DOCUMENT WAS CRAFTED BY JEFFERSON, WHO WAS CONSIDERED THE STRONGEST AND MOST ELOQUENT WRITER (NEVERTHELESS, A TOTAL OF 86 CHANGES WERE MADE TO HIS DRAFT!) THE FINAL VERSION, THE DOCUMENT THAT WE KNOW AS THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE WAS OFFICIALLY ADOPTED BY THE CONTINENTAL CONGRESS ON JULY 4, ALTHOUGH THE RESOLUTION THAT LED TO THE WRITING OF THE DECLARATION WAS ACTUALLY APPROVED TWO DAYS EARLIER.

HISTORY OF THE 4TH OF JULY
BECAME THE FIRST NEWSPAPER TO PRINT THE EXTRAORDINARY DOCUMENT.
ON JULY 8, 1776, THE FIRST PUBLIC READINGS OF THE DECLARATION WERE HELD IN PHILADELPHIA’S INDEPENDENCE SQUARE TO THE RINGING OF BELLS AND BAND MUSIC.
ALL OF THIS HAD OCCURRED WITH SOME OF THE DELEGATES TO THE CONGRESS NOT EVEN PRESENT; NEW YORK, FOR EXAMPLE, DID NOT EVEN VOTE ON THE RESOLUTION UNTIL JULY 9TH. (DID YOU KNOW THAT THAT NOT S ONE YEAR LATER, ON JULY 4, 1777, PHILADELPHIA MARKED INDEPENDENCE DAY BY ADJOURNING CONGRESS AND CELEBRATING WITH BONFIRES, BELLS AND FIREWORKS. THE CUSTOM EVENTUALLY SPREAD TO OTHER TOWNS BOTH LARGE AND SMALL, WHERE THE DAY WAS MARKED WITH PROCESSIONS, ORATORY, PICNICS, CONTESTS, GAMES, MILITARY DISPLAYS AND FIREWORKS. OBSERVATIONS THROUGHOUT THE NATION BECAME EVEN MORE COMMON AT THE END OF THE WAR OF 1812 WITH GREAT BRITAIN.
ON JUNE 24, 1826, THOMAS JEFFERSON SENT A LETTER TO ROGER C. WEIGHTMAN, DECLINING AN INVITATION TO COME TO WASHINGTON, D.C., TO HELP CELEBRATE THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE. IT WAS THE LAST LETTER, JEFFERSON, WHO WAS GRAVELY ILL, EVER WROTE. IN IT, JEFFERSON SAYS OF THE DOCUMENT: MAY IT BE TO THE WORLD, WHAT I BELIEVE IT WILL BE ... THE SIGNAL OF AROUSING MEN TO BURST THE CHAINS ... AND TO ASSUME THE BLESSINGS AND SECURITY OF SELF-GOVERNMENT. THAT FORM, WHICH WE HAVE SUBSTITUTED, RESTORES THE FREE RIGHT TO THE UNBOUNDED EXERCISE OF REASON AND FREEDOM OF OPINION. ALL EYES ARE OPENED, OR OPENING, TO THE RIGHTS OF MAN. ... FOR OURSELVES, LET THE ANNUAL RETURN OF THIS DAY FOREVER REFRESH OUR RECOLLECTIONS OF THESE RIGHTS, AND AN UNDIMINISHED DEVOTION TO THEM.
IN 1941, CONGRESS DECLARED JULY 4 A LEGAL FEDERAL HOLIDAY. TODAY, COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE NATION MARK THIS MAJOR MIDSUMMER HOLIDAY WITH PARADES, FIREWORKS, PICNICS AND THE PLAYING OF THE "STAR SPANGLED BANNER" AND MARCHES BY JOHN PHILIP SOUSA. |
