Happy ending







The court also spared Perry from a second felony charge of coercion of a public official, ruling that a lower court correctly tossed out the law last summer as unconstitutionally vague and a violation of free speech rights.

Wednesday’s ruling brought an abrupt end to the politically charged legal troubles that have dogged Perry for 18 months, looming over the closing months of his 14 years in office and casting a pall over his second unsuccessful run for president."

Good for him. This was obviously, pardon the expression, trumped up and politically motivated.

I don't know Perry ever had a shot this time, but I'm glad he doesn't have to endure any more of this.

PS I slipped this in at the end of the Sun Tea post and don't know if deborah saw it.

Splenda is made from chlorine.

Sugar is better for you (won't increase your chances of Alzheimer's like artificial sweeteners) and just gives us all more of you to love.


The Blonde has done a lot of research on this and it seems she's on pretty firm ground.

Stay away from Splenda. Use Stevia. Much healthier for you. Just sayn'

Ed, I saw you say that...sorry I did not answer.

Trooper, I'll try it. My sis said it gave her a bad headache or made her feel ill or something.

Responses to artificial sweeteners in bodies and blogs can vary greatly from person to person and sister to sister.

At the touch of a Google finger, there's more information immediately available online regarding the chemical composition and possible side effects of artificial sweeteners than there are recipes for sun tea. The tricks Splenda is able to perform on humans and mice are many and still being counted. Not all of them result in a happy ending.

Well, as an avid splenda user, I'm going to go back to sugar or minimize as much of it as I can.
