Otherwise known as lobbyists. 4. Flies. See above. 5. Livestock diseased. Hmmm...Does mad cow disease count? I know one particular female journalist on the salt flats who would qualify. Jim will back me up on this one. 6. Boils. They're in congress. 7. Thunder and hail. See first photo. 8. Locusts. They're on Wall St. 9. Darkness. In the White House. 10. Death of the firstborn. I can't think of anything funny about this one. Too serious a topic. No, nothing funny, BUT ................... I did lose an infant son. Crap, it's starting to make sense. Anyway, Ya might be right, Mike. Maybe it IS time to repent. :) Ohhh...I met yer buddy that runs the Chock Full O' Nuts pickup at Bonneville. I'd talked with the crew before, but it was the first time I'd had a chance to visit with him. He sez "hi." :) Having said all that, I'll crawl back in my hole and hide. r
