No fear, no flinching, firm, resolute, no kidding!<BR/><BR/>Which brings me to your many blog entrances which have a no flinching, no compromise attitude. You see the situation, and face it down (excerpt:"and if you think it shouldn’t be happening in this country, it is your moral duty to oust all Republicans from elected office, at any level, throughout the United States." from the View from Here, as a case in point).<BR/><BR/>You keep shooting, there, Gunfighter--the name fits!Wholly Burblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09999272388164733321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8111361336070472155.post-61777237015026533512007-11-12T22:36:00.000-06:002007-11-12T22:36:00.000-06:00My nom de blog is all about what I do for a living...My nom de blog is all about what I do for a living.<BR/><BR/>It isn't creative, but it's kinda cool... innit?Gunfighterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05762432006297768871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8111361336070472155.post-8367079840761017812007-11-09T11:26:00.000-06:002007-11-09T11:26:00.000-06:00mariposa, Terrific!

What a marvelous image.<BR/><BR/>I have a friend who lives in Florida and began a butterfly garden earlier this year. She fills me in on her progress, and what she's learning from fellow butterfly gardeners--quite a bit to know, and she is thoroughly enjoying it.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing!Wholly Burblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09999272388164733321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8111361336070472155.post-45099695239709031932007-11-08T17:19:00.000-06:002007-11-08T17:19:00.000-06:00Hi there, interesting topic...i love butterflies.....Hi there, interesting topic...i love butterflies...im fascinated by butterflies...i have a butterfly garden...so getting mariposa as a name it's a no brainer for me...lol <BR/><BR/>while others may view it differently, for me it's just the child/ girl in me fluttering around...Sai Hijara - Ferrarishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05520502217532479038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8111361336070472155.post-35320922551437201562007-11-08T14:02:00.000-06:002007-11-08T14:02:00.000-06:00jen, I'd like to hear how a2eatwrite came about--i...jen, I'd like to hear how a2eatwrite came about--is it in older posts if I go back and look?Wholly Burblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09999272388164733321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8111361336070472155.post-86751917116317585252007-11-08T13:04:00.000-06:002007-11-08T13:04:00.000-06:00Fascinating post, WB!
