APOLOGY ... Sherry Hacket did not write "We Noticed"
I will say it made it more interesting that Sherry Hackett, Buddy's widow, wrote the very true reporting story of "We Noticed" Accordinmg to Snopes and Urban Legends, it was written by Faye Parrish of Familysecuritymatters.org. Sherry died in 2007 and Faye wrote the letter to obama Aug., 2009.
I am thankful though, Lyle, that I was led to the family blog through the efforts of the liberal "referee" Snopes.

Hats off to Sherry! Thanks Lyle Shover!
This is a very interesting read.... no matter what side you're on. Makes you stop and wonder...
Hats off to Sherry!
Sherry Hackett, wife of the late Buddy Hackett, is a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat. I would think that many other Democrats share her position...
This was written by Sherry Hackett, Buddy Hackett's widow
"WE NOTICED"
President Obama:
Today I read of your administrations' plan to re-define September 11 as
a National Service Day. Sir, it's time we had a talk.
During your campaign, Americans watched as you made mockery of our
tradition of standing and crossing your heart when the Pledge of Allegiance
was spoken. You, out of four people on the stage, were the only one not
honoring our tradition.
YES, "We noticed."
During one of your many speeches, Americans heard you say that you
intended to visit all 57 states. We all know that Islam, not America has 57 states.
YES, "We noticed."
When President Bush leaned over at Ground Zero and gently placed a
flower on the memorial, while you nonchalantly tossed your flower onto
the pile without leaning over.
YES, "We noticed."
Every time you apologized to other countries for America 's position on
an issue we have wondered why you don't share our pride in this great
country.. When you have heard foreign leaders berate our country and
our beliefs, you have not defended us. In fact, you insulted the
British Crown beyond belief.
YES, "We noticed."< font size="4">
When your pastor of 20 years, "God-damned America " and said that
9/11 was " America 's chickens coming home to roost" and you denied
having heard recriminations of that nature, we wondered how that could
be. You later disassociated yourself from that church and Pastor
Wright because it was politically expedient to do so.
YES, "We noticed."
When you announced that you would transform America , we wondered
why. With all her faults, America is the greatest country on earth.
Sir, KEEP THIS IN MIND, "if not for America and the people who built
her, you wouldn't be sitting in the White House now." Prior to your
election to the highest office in this Country, you were a senator from
Illinois and from what we can glean from the records available, not a
very remarkable one.
YES, "We noticed."
All through your campaign and even now, you have surrounded
yourself with individuals who are basically unqualified for the
positions for which you appointed them. Worse than that, the majority
of them are people who, like you, bear no special allegiance, respect, or
affection for this country and her traditions.
YES, "We noticed."
You are 14 months into your term and every morning millions of
Americans wake up to a new horror heaped on us by you. You seek to
saddle working Americans with a health care/insurance reform package
that, along with cap and trade, will bank rupt this nation.
YES, "We noticed."
We seek, by protesting, to let our representatives know that we are not
in favor of these crippling expenditures and we are labeled
"un-American","racist", "mob". We wonder how we are supposed to let
you know how frustrated we are. You have attempted to make our protests seem
isolated and insignifica nt. Until your appointment, Americans had the right
to speak out.
YES, "We noticed."
On September 11, 2001 there were no Republicans or Democrats, only
Americans. And we all grieved together and helped each other in
whatever way we could. The attack on 9/11 was carried out because we are
Americans.&nb sp;
And YES, "We noticed."
There were many of us who prayed that as a black president you could
help unite this nation. In six months you have done more to destroy
this nation than the attack on 9/11. You have failed us.
YES, "We noticed."
September 11 is a day of remembrance for all Americans. You
propose to make 9/11 a "National Service Day". While we know that you
don't share our reverence for 9/11, we pray that history will report
your proposal as what it is, a disgrace.
YES, "We noticed."
You have made a mockery of our Constitution and the office that
you hold. You have embarrassed and slighted us in foreign visits
and policy.
YES, "We noticed."
We have noticed all these things. We will deal with you. When Americans
come together again, it will be to remove you from office.
Take notice.
If you agree with this, please pass it on. If not, I'm sorry!
Hats off to Sherry!

If you are a football fan I guarantee you will laugh out loud at some of these.
Ramey
Why do Nebraska football players like smart women?

Everyone's DNA there is the same.
Why do Tennessee fans wear orange?
So they can dress that way for the game on Saturday, go hunting on Sunday, and wear it to pick up trash on Monday.
How do you get a former Ohio State football player off your porch?
Pay him for the pizza.
An Alabama fan and a Tennessee fan, fighting side-by-side, were captured during World War II and sentenced to die by firing squad. The enemy commander asked the Tennessee fan if he had any last requests. The Vol said, "I want to hear Rocky Top one last time." The Bama fan was then asked if he had any last requests. "Yes, shoot me first!"
A man is sitting at a park bench when another man sits next to him and they engage in conversation. Shortly after, the second man says, "So, I bet you're a Texas fan."
The first man says enthusiastically, "Why, yes I am. How did you know? My intelligence? My wit? My good looks?"
The second fellow says, "No. I saw your class ring when you were picking your nose."
A scrawny man at a bar in Columbus says to the guy sitting next to him, "Hey, you want to hear a really funny Ohio State joke?"
The guy replies, "Hey, buddy. See the bartender? He played at Ohio State. See those two huge guys to your left? They played at Ohio State. See that group of big guys over at that table? All Ohio State football players. Look at me. I'm 6'4, 235, and played at Ohio State. Now are you sure you want to tell me your joke?"
The scrawny man says, "Nah. I don't want to have to explain and repeat it five times."

"Eleven," says the athlete.
The rest of the team pleads, "Give him another chance! Give him another chance!" Spurrier then asks, "What does 2 plus 2 equal?"

The rest of the team yells, "Give him another chance! Give him another chance!"
How many Florida freshmen football players does it take to change a light bulb?
None. That's a sophomore course.

Saban then said, "Can you pass a football?"
The kid thought for a second and said, "Well, coach, if I can swallow it, I can probably pass it."
If you are driving and see a Miami football player riding a bicycle, why should you take great care in not hitting him?

More sand.
A man asks his friend, "Did you hear about the 22-year-old babe who married the 93-year-old Alabama booster? It was a football wedding."

"Yeah, she's waiting for him to kick off."
The Notre Dame fan was complaining to his friend about his wife. He said, "My wife thinks I put the Fighting Irish ahead of our marriage. I disagree. We just celebrated our fourth season together."

It was put on probation.
What do you call 20 Ohio State fans lying on the lawn?
Fertilizer.
How do you get a Nebraska cheerleader into your dorm room?

Tata- India- Air car ... Thanks Sonny!
I want one. Amazing, huh?
What is this?
Will it be the next big thing? Tata Motors thinks so.
It is an auto engine that runs on air.
That's right; air not gas or diesel or electric but just the air around us.
Tata Motors of India has scheduled the Air Car to hit Indian streets by August 2011
The Air Car, developed by ex-Formula One engineer Guy N. For Luxembourg-based MDI, uses compressed air to push its engine's pistons and make the car go.
The Air Car, called the "Mini CAT" could cost around 365,757 rupees in India or $8,177 US.
The Mini CAT which is a simple, light urban car, with a tubular chassis, a body of fiberglass that is glued not welded and powered by compressed air. A Microprocessor is used to control all electrical functions of the car. One tiny radio transmitter sends instructions to the lights, turn signals and every other electrical device on the car. Which are not many.
The temperature of the clean air expelled by the exhaust pipe is between 0-15 degrees below zero, which makes it suitable for use by the internal air conditioning system with no need for gases or loss of power.
There are no keys, just an access card which can be read by the car from your pocket. According to the designers, it costs less than 50 rupees per 100 KM, that's about a tenth the cost of a car running on gas. It's mileage is about double that of the most advanced electric car, a factor which makes it a perfect choice for city motorists. The car has a top speed of 105 KM per hour or 60 mph and would have a range of around 300 km or 185 miles between refuels. Refilling the car will take place at adapted gas stations with special air compressors. A fill up will only take two to three minutes and costs approximately 100 rupees and the car will be ready to go another 300 kilometers.
This car can also be filled at home with it's on board compressor. It will take 3-4 hours to refill the tank, but it can be done while you sleep.
Because there is no combustion engine, changing the 1 liter of vegetable oil is only necessary every 50,000 KM or 30,000 miles. Due to its simplicity, there is very little maintenance to be done on this car.
This Air Car almost sounds too good to be true. We'll see in August.
Don't laugh too hard at the company name,
Tata Motors owns Jaguar.

Bruce Thomas Metallurgical Engineer
Bruce Thomas was an outstanding Metallurgical Engineer for the Timken Company. He gave up the industrial life to become a house painter and I am sure that he did that very well. He was also an astute investor and he befriended my oldest son, Jay, Columbus librarian then at Hilliard, and passed on some $ wisdom to him. He also gave me a fine set of about fifty or so metallographic samples which are still used in the Metallurgy Laboratory at Defense Supply Center Columbus. Bruce and I also shared adjunct kinship at Columbus State Community College. I didn't know the family well, but we just should not forget God's great people like Metallurgist Bruce Thomas.
