Egypt Again on Fire

The Middle East may be at the point of finally showing her true colors. This is good in the sense I would prefer the truth than the lies that come from doublespeak.

'They' have been protesting for 4 days now, and the Egyptian military continues to mow them down. There remains only one question. Who are 'they'

Are they from the Muslum Brotherhood? Is this a reaction from the original protestors who were tired of religous intolerance, drastic punishments, murder for protesting, etc?

I ask this because I truly do not know who is in charge of Egypt. I am afraid they may lose many millions of dollars from visitors in the coming years. At least until we can figure out what is the religious make up of Egypt. If it is sharia law, you can say good-bye to prosperity; hello poverty.

Now for some humor relief. The New York Times seems to think noise is not that big of a deal. As a matter of fact, they think it's just swell! Ask The Cairo Calls! Please leave a comment, not a phone call. ;)

I pray for Egypt. I hope you will do the same. Merry Christmas. When you open your presents, please remember those Christians that are stuck in the Middle East through this transition and acknowledge them with prayer. Thank you.

This Is Crying Funny

I was just emailed this, and oh how true it is. The sad thing is that it is true. It is about a Governor, a dog, and a coyote. Read on:

California is a big government State.

Arizona is a direct, small government State .

California spends tens of millions on small things.

Arizona recognizes small things and does not take them seriously.

Which State handles problems better--the State welcoming illegal aliens or the State enforcing the Rule of Law?

Pass this on to your friends.

(sent to me by a friend, not sure who the author is)

California:

The Governor of California is jogging with his dog along a nature trail. A coyote jumps out, bites the Governor and attacks his dog.

1. The Governor starts to intervene, but reflects upon the movie "Bambi" and then realizes he should stop; the coyote is only doing what is natural.
2. He calls animal control. Animal Control captures coyote and bills the State $200 testing it for diseases and $500 for relocating it.
3. He calls a veterinarian. The vet collects the dead dog and bills the State $200 testing it for diseases.
4. The Governor goes to hospital and spends $3,500 getting checked for diseases from the coyote and on getting his bite wound bandaged.
5. The running trail gets shut down for 6 months while Fish & Game conducts a $100,000 survey to make sure the area is free of dangerous animals.
6. The Governor spends $50,000 in state funds implementing a "coyote awareness" program for residents of the area.
7. The State Legislature spends $2 million to study how to better treat rabies and how to permanently eradicate the disease throughout the world.
8. The Governor's security agent is fired for not stopping the attack somehow and for letting the Governor attempt to intervene.
9. Additional cost to State of California : $75,000 to hire and train a new security agent with additional special training re: the nature of coyotes.
10. PETA protests the coyote's relocation and files suit against the State.

Arizona:

The Governor of Arizona is jogging with her dog along a nature trail. A Coyote jumps out and attacks her dog.

1. The Governor shoots the coyote with her State-issued pistol and keeps jogging. The Governor has spent $0.50 on a .45 ACP hollow point cartridge.
2. The Buzzards eat the dead coyote.

And that's why California is broke.

I Have A Free House For You

While we had all been putting our time and treasure into stopping the health insurance debacle, even though it passed anyway, below is a very humorous 'reality check' that almost everyone can grasp. Except those Obamabots. Have a nice day.

I was in my neighborhood restaurant this morning and was seated behind a group of jubilant individuals celebrating the successful passing of the recent health care bill. I could not finish my breakfast. This is what ensued:

They were a diverse group of several races and both sexes. I heard the young man exclaim, “Isn’t Obama like Jesus Christ? I mean, after all, he is healing the sick.” The young woman enthusiastically proclaimed, “Yeah, and he does it for free. I cannot believe anyone would think that a free market would work for health care. They are all crooks and thieves and don’t deserve all of that money.” Another said, ‘The stupid Republicans want us all to starve to death so they can inherit all of the power. Obama should be made a Saint for what he did for those of us less fortunate.” At this, I had had enough.

I arose from my seat, mustering all the restraint I could find, and approached their table. “Please excuse me; may I impose upon you for one moment?” They smiled and welcomed me to the conversation. I stood at the end of their table, smiled as best I could and began an experiment.

“I would like to give one of you my house. It will cost you no money and I will pay all of the expenses and taxes for as long as you live there. Anyone interested?” They looked at each other in astonishment. “Why would you do something like that?” asked a young man, “There isn’t anything for free in this world.” They began to laugh at me, as they did not realize this man had just made my point. “I am serious, I will give you my house for free, no money what so ever. Anyone interested?” In unison, a resounding “Hell Yeah” fills the room.

“Since there are too many of you, I will have to make a choice as to who receives this money free bargain.” I noticed an elderly couple was paying attention to the spectacle unfolding before their eyes, the old man shaking his head in apparent disgust. “I tell you what; I will give it to the one of you most willing to obey my rules.” Again, they looked at one another, an expression of bewilderment on their faces. The perky young woman asked, “What are the rules?” I smiled and said, “I don’t know. I have not yet defined them. However, it is a free home that I offer you.” They giggled amongst themselves, the youngest of which said, “What an old coot. He must be crazy to give away his home. Go take your meds, old man.” I smiled and leaned into the table a bit further. “I am serious, this is a legitimate offer.” They gaped at me for a moment.

“Hell, I’ll take it you old fool. Where are the keys?” boasted the youngest among them. “Then I presume you accept ALL of my terms then?” I asked. The elderly couple seemed amused and entertained as they watched from the privacy of their table. “Oh hell yeah! Where do I sign up?” I took a napkin and wrote, “I give this man my home, without the burden of financial obligation, so long as he accepts and abides by the terms that I shall set forth upon consummation of this transaction.” I signed it and handed it to the young man who eagerly scratched out his signature. “Where are the keys to my new house?” he asked in a mocking tone of voice. All eyes were upon us as I stepped back from the table, pulling the keys from pocket and dangling them before the excited new homeowner.

“Now that we have entered into this binding contract, witnessed by all of your friends, I have decided upon the conditions you are obligated to adhere from this point forward. You may only live in the house for one hour a day. You will not use anything inside of the home. You will obey me without question or resistance. I expect complete loyalty and admiration for this gift I bestow upon you. You will accept my commands and wishes with enthusiasm, no matter the nature. Your morals and principles shall be as mine. You will vote as I do, think as I do and do it with blind faith. These are my terms. Here are your keys.” I reached the keys forward and the young man looked at me dumb founded.

“Are you out of your freaking mind? Who would ever agree to those ridiculous terms?” the young man appeared irritated. “You did when you signed this contract before reading it, understanding it and with the full knowledge that I would provide my conditions only after you committed to the agreement.” Was all I said. The elderly man chuckled as his wife tried to restrain him. I was looking at a now silenced and bewildered group of people. “You can shove that stupid deal up you’re a** old man, I want no part of it” exclaimed the now infuriated young man. “You have committed to the contract, as witnessed by all of your friends; you cannot get out of the deal unless I agree to it. I do not intend to let you free now that I have you ensnared. I am the power you agreed to. I am the one you blindly and without thought chose to enslave yourself to. In short, I am your Master.” At this, the table of celebrating individuals became a unified group against the unfairness of the deal.

After a few moments of unrepeatable comments and slurs, I revealed my true intent. “What I did to you is what this administration and congress did to you with the health care legislation. I easily suckered you in and then revealed the real cost of the bargain. Your folly was in the belief that you can have something you did not earn; that you are entitled to that which you did not earn; that you willingly allowed someone else to think for you. Your failure to research, study and inform yourself permitted reason to escape you. You have entered into a trap from which you cannot flee. Your only chance of freedom is if your new Master gives it unto you. A freedom that is given can also be taken away; therefore, it is not freedom.” With that, I tore up the napkin and placed it before the astonished young man. “This is the nature of your new health care legislation.”

I turned away to leave these few in thought and contemplation and was surprised by applause. The elderly gentleman, who was clearly entertained, shook my hand enthusiastically and said, “Thank you Sir, these kids don’t understand Liberty these days.” He refused to allow me to pay my bill as he said, “You earned this one, it is an honor to pickup the tab.” I shook his hand in thanks, leaving the restaurant somewhat humbled, and sensing a glimmer of hope for my beloved country.

News Overload 4/23/10

It has been a while since I've written anything, because I've had over 400 emails a day to answer. I couldn't do it, so I am just going to try and connect all of the news together and try to make it an article. I could use your prayers. *heh*

To start, I have had the pleasure to become net buddies with this great band and singer, Backbone Music USA. You should really go check them out if you are a patriot. They have also posted their first single along with a video on YouTube that I just found out about!

Just in case the video doesn't work, here's the link.

A friend of mine ["Steve"} likes to email me these silly jokes, and sometimes I can really use them. This one is entitled, "I couldn't resist forwarding this one..."

Over five thousand years ago, Moses said to the children of Israel "Pick up your shovel, mount your asses and camels, and I will lead you to the promised land".

About 75 years ago, Roosevelt said, "Lay down your shovels, sit on your asses, and light up a camel, this is the promised land".

Now Obama has stolen our shovel, taxed our asses, raised the price of camels, and mortgaged the promised land!

I was so depressed last night thinking about Health Care Plans, the economy, the wars, lost jobs, savings, Social Security, retirement funds, etc., I called the suicide hot line which turned out to be a call center in Pakistan. I told them I was suicidal.

They all got excited and asked if I could drive a truck...

haha. I have no idea what the truck is all about, but the rest of it I get. There are more. Same station.

Stop the ACLU is a great site and provides much insight and articles that cover information that is rarely discussed by the so-called dinosaur media. This article about how they lie to women so they can get them to have an abortion is disgusting. Planned Parenthood is anything except being parents. It is all about abortions and genocide. Yes, that is correct. Black people are estimated to be 15% of the citizens in America. So why are there 85% of Planned Parenthood clinics in their neiborhood?

I shall now post what we've gotten thus far. I know it isn't much, but this is the first time I've tried writing in this capacity. Any suggestions from other bloggers as to how to put all this news out there and stay sane? Appreciated. ;)

May you walk with the LORD always, and when you cannot take another step, may He carry you the rest of the way until you can walk along side Him again. Digg!

Maxine on Healthcare

This is hilarious. Is there a better way to make things more clear than with cartoons? If so, I don't know it.

Now, let me get this straight … we're trying to pass a health care plan written by a committee whose chairman says he doesn't understand it, passed by a Congress that hasn't read it but exempts themselves from it, to be signed by a president who also is exempt from it and hasn't read it and who smokes, with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn't pay his taxes, all to be overseen by a surgeon general who is obese, and financed by a country that's broke.

What the hell could possibly go wrong?

If it were only a cartoon, it would be funny. This is some serious stuff. They are after our Liberty. We must push back non-violently. Get out there and vote! In the mean time, man those phones, emails, and faxes. We've got a country to save.

My Fellow Patriots, Be Warned!

My friend over in Pasadena sent me this message today, and they're on to us. Yup, they found out that we're bought and paid for cuz no one could really think the way we do. Dang, it was good while we fooled them...NOT!

This is a funny video, and here is what Jonathan wrote on Facebook:

Subject: Premiere: Exposing the American Tea Party

(DISCLAIMER: "Chase Peterson" is a completely fictional character created to lampoon certain unnamed "journalists" in the mainstream media. Please enjoy and pass along at your own discretion ;)

As many of you know, the Pasadena Patriots were approached last month by veteran news correspondent Chase Peterson about participating in a documentary series called "Exposing the American Tea Party". Concerned that Mr Peterson had his own agenda, we politely declined. However, his producer came back with an irresistible offer - they would grant us FINAL APPROVAL and ALLOW US TO EDIT THE PIECE. Now granted - none of us are professional filmmakers, but this opportunity was simply too good to pass up. On December 29th, Chase Peterson came to our holiday party at Riley's Farm. Even though we were extremely gracious and cooperative, Mr Peterson's attitude soured throughout the afternoon and upon leaving he refused to give us the video tapes. As you can imagine - this didn't go over well with our group. With the help of Mr Peterson's cameraman, we finally took possession of the video footage. And now - Riley's Farm and the Pasadena Patriots are excited to present our first crack at mockumentary filmmaking "FRONT MAN: Who pays for the party?". Thanks to everyone who participated. It was a total blast and we're already talking to Chase about the next episode. Stay tuned!

Here is Part 1 of the video. Enjoy.

Overheard Physicians Talking

Five surgeons from big cities are discussing who makes the Best Patients to operate on.

The first surgeon, from New York , says, 'I like to see Accountants on my operating table because when you open them up, Everything inside is numbered.'

The second, from Chicago, responds, 'Yeah, but you should try Electricians! Everything inside them is color coded..'

The third surgeon, from Dallas, says, 'No, I really think librarians Are the best, everything inside them is in alphabetical order'

The fourth surgeon, from LosAngeles chimes in: 'You know, I like Construction workers...Those guys always understand when you have a few Parts left over.

But the fifth surgeon, from Washington , DC shut them all up when he Observed: 'You're all wrong. Politicians are the easiest to operate on. There's no guts, no heart, no balls, no brains, and no spine. Plus, The head and the butt are interchangeable.

Sad

There are two cartoons today that capture the mood of many. For those of you who've been somewhere in the woods for the past week or so, President Obama has released those Chinese terrorists from Gitmo to go to Bermuda on our dime. Yup. They're living the life of luxury that 2996 of our fellow citizens never had the opportunity to do because these scumbags murdered them on September 11, 2001. Even if it wasn't them personally, they're with the monsters who did. Here are the cartoons. They speak for themselves.

Update: I have a commenter who thinks I either forgot to do the research or didn't care to the research. Well, I did not realize I had to research cartoons! Well, here we go.

The detainees were captured in Afghanistan and Pakistan in 2001, but the Pentagon determined last year that they were not "enemy combatants." [Continue reading the Washington Post.]

I remember this case, if that matters. These are not men who were not innocent. The tribunals, which were unconstitutionally halted by the courts, could not hear this hear this case. After being captured since 2001 (ring a bell anyone?), they were determined not to be a threat anymore.

These are Chinese Muslims. What were they doing in Afghanistan? Why were they fighting against us if not to be part of al Qaida? There are several scumbags we've released that return right back to the battlefield. I am of the mind that I would rather be on the side of caution. If someone else would prefer to be on the side of letting them all go so we can hit again, they have a right to that opinion. Just don't live next door to me! There's your update.

Physicians vs Gun Owners (Reposted)

UPDATE: I have received some news about the statistics used for this joke and apparently the ones used here are incorrect. Here is a link to the statistics used: National US Center for Health Statistics. While they do not list doctors as one of the causes of accidental death, I disagree. There are over 100,000 accidental deaths in hospitals every year. That does NOT mean the doctor is at fault each time. It is just stating a fact that if you get sick, Stay Home. (I'm going to get in trouble for that remark.) Too many germs in a hospital! Afterall, I've seen it on TV, so it must be true, right? (JOKING)

Physicians:

a. The number of physicians in the U.S. is 700,000.
b. Accidental deaths caused by Physicians per year are 120,000. c. Accidental deaths per physician is 0.171.
(Statistics courtesy of U.S. Dept. of Health & Human Services)

Now think about this...

Guns:

a. The number of gun owners in the U.S. is 80,000,000.
b. The number of accidental gun deaths per year (all age groups) is 1,500.
c. The number of accidental deaths per gun owner is 0.000188.
_________________

Statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners.
_________________

Remember, "Guns don't kill people; doctors do."
FACT: NOT EVERYONE HAS A GUN, BUT ALMOST EVERYONE HAS AT LEAST ONE DOCTOR.

_________________

Please alert your friends to this alarming threat. We must ban doctors before this gets completely out of hand!

Note: Out of concern for the public at large, I have withheld the statistics on lawyers for fear the shock would cause people to panic and seek medical attention.

Common Man Loses Tip To Bum

A Christian friend of mine received this in his e-mail box, and I asked him if I could post this. It is a very common way to look at the difference in 'redistribution of wealth' and trusting the American people to make their own decisions about THEIR earned money, and I really like it. I think you will like it, too. Here goes:
********************************************
Yesterday on my way to lunch at Doe's, I passed one of the homeless guys in that area, with a sign that read "*Vote *Obama*, I need the money." *Once inside Doe's my waiter had on a "Obama 08" tee shirt.

When the bill came, I decided not to tip the waiter and explained to him while he had given me exceptional service, that his tee shirt made me feel he obviously believes in Senator Obama's plan to redistribute the wealth.

I told him I was going to redistribute his tip to someone that I deemed more in need--the homeless guy outside.

He stood there in disbelief and angrily stormed away.

I went outside, gave the homeless guy $3 and told him to thank the waiter inside, as I had decided he could use the money more. The homeless guy looked at me in disbelief but seemed grateful.

As I got in my truck, I realized this rather unscientific redistribution experiment had left the homeless guy quite happy for the money he did not earn, but the waiter was pretty angry that I gave away the money he did earn.

Well, I guess this redistribution of wealth¹ is going to take a while to catch on with those doing the work...
********************************************
This is exactly what I have been saying, but this is a much better description! Thanks GM. ;)

Ch-ch-ch-Chan-ges...

I must confess, I received this in an email from my brother who received it from someone who...well, you know. I am not claiming that anything in this post is true (except most of it, but I don't feel like taking the time to prove it to people who haven't paid attention), so don't come yelling at me. Just check it out. It's hilarious.

BEGIN E-MAIL:

From a Republican friend.

George Bush has been in office for 7 1/2 years.

The first six the economy was fine. A little over one year ago:

1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high;
2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon;
3) the unemployment rate was 4.5%.
4) the DOW JONES hit a record high--14,000 +
5) American's were buying new cars, taking cruises, vacations o'seas, living large!...

But American's wanted 'CHANGE'! So, in 2006 they voted in a Democratic Congress & yep--we got 'CHANGE' all right!...

1) Consumer confidence has plummeted;
2) Gasoline is now over $4 a gallon & climbing!;
3) Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase);
4) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $12 TRILLION DOLLARS & prices still dropping;
5) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure.
6) as I write, THE DOW is probing another low~~11,300--$2.5 TRILLION DOLLARS has evaporated from their stocks, bonds & mutual funds investment portfolios!

Yep, in 2006 America voted for change!...and sure as heck got it!

NOW the DEM'S Candidate for president--and the polls say he's gonna be 'the man'--claims he's gonna REALLY give us (ka-ching) CHANGE!

JUST HOW MUCH MORE 'CHANGE' DO YA THINK YOU CAN STAND???

END E-MAIL

Marvelous! Yes, the stock market did break 14,000. Yes, we did have a positive consumer confidence rating. Yes, we did have lower unemployment rates. Yes, we did have cheaper (although unlikeable) gasoline, and we also carried on as if there were no tomorrow. So what happened?

The democrats. If you don't get it now, chances are you never will. It is because of people like you we are suffering. Why don't you go away and ponder on that for awhile? Don't worry. You can make it back in time for the general election on November 5, 2008.

Shhhh! If you understand what I did, please don't say anything. If you do not understand what I did, it's no big deal. Just an inside joke. ;)

May you walk with the LORD always, and when you cannot take another step, may He carry you the rest of the way until you can walk along side Him again.

OMG, THIS IS POLITICALLY FUNNY!

I heard about this video over the radio, and he was correct. You really cannot get the gist of it over the radio. This is one funny video about both McCain and Obama! Hey man, we know you've spent millions of dollars already, but it's time to start campaignin'!

For those of you who are unable to put this video on your blog, here is the link to view it at YouTube.

Let's face it, I'm not thrilled with McCain, and Obama will cost us more than we have. As far as I can tell. That is the only thing we know about Obama. (Shhh. I know we know more than that, but I'm trying to keep this civil. lol) McCain is out there pandering to people who shouldn't be voting in the first place again about AMNESTY. *sigh* It's about time we had some fun with them, and thanks to JibJab, we can. Right on JibJab!

PS. Maybe you won't find it as funny as I do, but that's okay. I think it's hilarious, and that's what really counts, right? ;)

Hat tip: The Hill Street Blahg and JibJab.

May you walk with the LORD always, and when you cannot take another step, may He carry you the rest of the way until you can walk along side Him again.

Light Humor Sunday Trackposts

Now for some light humor from my brother.

A teacher instructs her fifth-grade class to ask their parents to tell them a story with a moral at the end.

The next day the kids come in and share their stories. After a few students tell their stories, the rest of the class learns some of the morals you'd expect to hear, such as "don't count your chickens before they hatch" and "treat others as you'd like them to treat you."

Then it was little Timmy's turn...

"My daddy told me about my uncle Dave," says Timmy. "He was a pilot in Vietnam and had to bail out over enemy territory with nothing but a flask of whiskey, a pistol, and a knife. He drank the whiskey during the drop, then landed in the middle of 20 Charlies. He shot 15, stabbed three, and killed the last two with his bare hands."

"What is the moral of that horrible story?" yelps the mortified teacher.

"Stay away from Uncle Dave when he's been drinking."

'Bill of No Rights'

Finally, a common sense 'Bill of No Rights' was emailed to me by my brother. He thought I would like it, and he was correct. He found it at Snopes.com. I shall share the pertinent part, and leave a link for you to read what Snopes has to say about. I was surprised!

I've been tagged!

My dear friend, David, has tagged me, and I usually turn these away with a little amusement. After all, whatever did I do to indicate I would be a willing participant? What did I do to deserve this?

Nonetheless, I have agreed to do this just ONE TIME, so don't even think it! lol. David is a very good man, and he has helped me endlessly with my computer etiquette and software. So how about it, shall we get on with it?

Here is what I am endeavored to do:

1. Write your own six word memoir.
2. Post it on your blog and include a visual illustration if you want.
3. Link to the person that tagged you in your post and to the original post if possible so we can track it as travels across the blogosphere. (This would be Kat, of Cathouse Chat, tagged David who tagged me with a blogosphere meme pool tag game.)
4. Tag at least five more blogs with links.
5. Leave a comment on the tagged blogs with an invitation to play.

Now I must combine my life's experiences, my education, my philosophies, my loves and dislikes into six tiny words. Anyone who knows me knows that this is a trick within itself! However, I shall try to complete this challenge.

"My life is a contact sport."

Okay, I've rolled all my theories into political jargon, sports, animals, Church, missionary work, and other stuff. Why political jargon? Because the Left (Commies) have left me with no choice. Amazing is it not? The people who scream for choice are only willing to permit it when you decide to MURDER your own child. Animals? I love them. All. The Left has the government involved in this area as well. Reading? I would love to! Does the Left censor my access to news? YES. Thank God for the net!

These are just a few radical thoughts from the communist regime that live and dwell amongst us. They have turned everything into politics, so I have decided to answer in kind. Especially since James Carter has lost his marbles and does not wish to play with Americans anymore. Oh no. He would prefer our death. Just ask him as soon as he gets back from his meeting with HAMAS which Obama will not condemn!

I do not believe in sitting on the sideline and waiting for other people to do what I am responsible for doing. What is it I am responsible for doing? Anything that needs being done but is not, loving and tending my brothers and sisters, my prayer time, leading lost souls to Jesus Christ our LORD, etc. See, it all includes ACTION. So let's get active!

Toldja I could not do it in six words.

These are my poor, unsuspecting friends whom I have selected to join in the fun: Dagney's Rant, The Jungle-Hut, Mom, Pawigo View, Blue Star Chronicles and Woman Honor Thyself.

Back-up taggees: Right Truth and Bereft.

I forgot to give a man the opportunity to say 'No'! So here is: Stop the ACLU, Jay, Veteran-American Voices and Big Dog's Website.

Now men, you will not need to do anything unless I get in touch with you to let you know that I need you. Of course you are my friends! I will always need you! I mean for this.

Update: It appears Jungle Mom has already been tagged! She did a very good job both in her six words and in her life. God bless you, Jungle Mom! (Your family, too.) So it seems it is up to you Debbie.

Update II: It would appear I've been tagged again by The Amboy Times. He has asked me to join in the fun, and I have already done my work. Cool! I will just add him to those who I've trackbacked to so he doesn't have to seek all the blogoshpere over just for someone who has not been tagged yet. OH! Wait a minute! I know someone who hasn't been tagged yet. Why don't I give him this other person's URL? Hmm. Do you think that would be a good idea? I do! Here comes a tag your way, StormWarning's CounterTerrorism via The Amboy Times!

Update III: Rurik from StormWarnings is unable to participate for reasons I understand. He was very nice about it, and I want to thank him for his kindness. Now to let you know that I've been tagged again! Yup, Adam's Blog has tagged me, but I don't know what to do! Should I write another six words? Do I need to tag five more people? Nah! I'll just give him what I've got. Does that sound about right? It does? Good! Thanks.

BTW, his six words are very good. "Serve God. Fight Hard. Get Healthy." Awesome, aren't they?
