The United States government, which has difficulty controlling its own borders, has agreed to help Saudi Arabia secure its dangerous border areas near Yemen.

"It is a very rough border, very difficult to protect from illegal crossings," U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said.
You just can't make this stuff up. Nothing surprises me anymore.

Sometimes I think we live in different time warps.

These sort of statements just make no sense when we're having problems with sealing our own borders.

Oh, and ... we can manage only ? 1200 troops ? to send to our border in Arizona. I guess Texas isn't getting any additional help, hasn't even gotten a response to their requests for help.

Wonder how long it took for a response from our government to help secure the Saudi's borders?

Once upon a time I used to think that a statement like this was so ridiculous that it must have been taken out of context - but, no more - stuff I'm hearing now is just too crazy to try to make any sense out of it, so I don't even try.

Now, back to my cats who keep me grounded.

They really do live in a universe apart from the rest of us, don't they?

The air's a little thin where she is, isn't it?

If not a universe, then at least a really, really dark room.

For the record, you made me say this:

Well, it sure is dark up there...and smelly...and it can't be comfortable to bend around like that.
