Line item veto stuff and some other stuff…

Governor Martinez said she would veto certain stuff and some of the house and senate did not believe her, so she used her line item veto powers to strike through certain monies, etc, trying to be pushed through behind or in a certain bills….Nah, she ain’t gonna let you do that…She said you couldn’t and she ain’t gonna let you pull a fast one. So she will strike that out….Way to go Guv….Snow stuff…It snowed up in Iceland on May 1st. Those folks were upset about it snowing so late. I figured it snowed year round that far north…Guess not. Reckon some of them already had their tomatoes out…Thats bad….Radish stuff…My radishes are not doing well where my son and I put them out…I don’t know, bad soil, too little sun, to many honeysuckle roots…something happens…I planted some seed a week later in my garden space in the back yard and man, beautiful radishes..I put two of them in a salad yesterday. And I still have not seen any orka sticking up its head yet, so I don’t know about all my sons big footed spading, it may have been for naught…..Airport stuff…Don’t plan on landing at the airport near Claunch as I don’t think it is ready just yet. I called for the airport manager yesterday and he still has not returned my call, but I understand the wind sock is not out yet…Don’t try landing there as you really need the wind sock in my opinion. And the condition of the runway is in question at this time as well. I cannot comment further at this time on the airport stuff other than to say I don’t think rental cars are available now….Coal Fire, AL Baptist Church stuff. The 4given Quartet will be appearing there Sunday, June 26, 2011 at 1 PM for a concert. I hope you folks will attend their concert and give them a good Coal Fire welcome. I listened to a sample of their singing on their web site..They are good and I think you will enjoy your Sunday afternoon with them. They are from over ’round Northport…..Well, that’s about all the stuff I can think of right now…Pete   P.S.   Flooding stuff….I forgot, the excess water flowing down the Mississippi, flooding all the towns and fields…How I wish there were a lot of big pumps hooked to a pipe line sending water to Ute Lake, Elephant Butt, Santa Rosa Lake, Brantley Lake and all the other lakes in the area…..Water is a little like money, “some got plenty and others don’t have enough”, huh?…New Orleans looks like it could be in a world of hurt as the flood waters reach Baton Rouge and New Orleans…Let us wish them well and pray for them…..

You mean Governor Martinez has the line item veto! I didn’t know that New Mexico was so far ahead of the rest of the country. I wonder how it works. Can the legislature override a veto line by line with something like a two-thirds vote. I hope so because, otherwise, New Mexico has a governor dictator. Anyway, I salute New Mexico. I wish other states, as well as the U. S. Government would institute the line item veto. There is a bright spot in the country, and that spot is New Mexico, which is true to its state symbol, the zuni sun.

I don’t know about the dictatorship stuff, but she is doing the line item veto bit for now. And they (the democrats are screaming)…..

Love reading your “stuff”.It’s interesting & enjoyable reading about important stuff. I read the amnesty one as well. That should matter to all of us in the US. I appreciate that you stay informed and take a stand.I would be disappointed were that not so. Bearing in mind that I know a bit about your folks cuz. Most of all, I loved loved the tribute to Aunt Tewo. I adored her. Well, Pete, time is running short & I may be rambling a tad. I need to get to work on making a B’day card for a cousin on Mother’s side that lives in Pickensville AL. Signing off for now. Thanks for the likes to my FB. And, I know you will keep up the good work. Much love to you, Helen & family

Thanks Linda, I appreciate you coming by and reading my posts.
Hope to see you in Alabama in July….Pete
