HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!

May the road rise to meet you,

May the wind be always at your back,

May the sun shine warm upon your face,

The rains fall soft upon your fields and,

Until we meet again,

May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

CONGRATULATIONS, LADY PANTHERS!!

HURRY UP & GET YOURSELF GONE!

BRING ON SPRING!

PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION

On Jan. 24th, the Senate is expected to pass a bill for the first ever U.S. internet censorship system. While the Senate is holding town halls and meetings at home, they need to hear why they need to block the vote and kill this bill.

I am writing to you as a voter in your district. I urge you to vote "no" on cloture for S. 968, the PROTECT IP Act, on Jan. 24th. The PROTECT IP Act is dangerous, ineffective, and short-sighted. It does not deserve floor consideration. I urge my representative to vote "no" on SOPA, the corresponding House bill.

Over coming days you'll be hearing from the many businesses, advocacy organizations, and ordinary Americans who oppose this legislation because of the myriad ways in which it will stifle free speech and innovation. We hope you'll take our concerns to heart and oppose this legislation by voting "no" on cloture.

SEE YA, 2011!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

MAY 2012 BE FILLED WITH PEACE, PROSPERITY, JOY, LOVE & ALL THINGS BEAUTIFUL.

... short of that, I hope it's at least relatively happy.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

& A MOST HAPPY HOLIDAY SEASON TO YOU & YOURS

Wherever you spend it, whoever you spend it with, I wish you all a very

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

THANK A VETERAN

WE'LL MISS YOU, JIM
