    Oops. I was on the wrong thread, posting this “sign of the times” (as my mother would have said):

    Yes, Sabreen! Can’t load the youtube interview on my ancient computer. Will have to try some other device. Not a fan of the green lipstick, but the idea of these folks interviewing President Obama is terrific.

      This latest disgraceful episode about Bibi and Israël… It’s just tragic how republicans are wrong about absolutely everything. They have become a destructive force, both domestically and internationally. They’re not conservatives. They’re reactionaries.

      Historians of the future won’t be kind to them.

    The first time I ever owned a universal remote I thought to myself: “Well… this changes everything.”

    OMG, I just found out that Hank Green, who interviewed the President, is from here in Missoula. The local news just did a piece on him. I had never heard of him. I am now going to follow him and support him. I am so proud of this great young man.

      Dudette - I’m punch drunk from being sleepy … so please ignore this … but the first thought I had after reading sweet Molly’s tweet (which I totally agree with) was “What other planet would you have been on?” I should run off soon and allow you awake, non-giddy people to have full reign! #ForgiveMeMolly

        Thank you so much, Dudette, for sharing Michaela with TOD.

        Was so repulsed by the Graham tweet that Jacqueline brought to our attention, up thread, and then as I scrolled down I found the jewel you posted. Watching Michaela’s story I decided to be compassionate toward Graham and sent him this message …

        Who knows, maybe Michaela can enable him to realize how empty his soul is ….

        good night TOD

    So annoying. I’m sure y’all know the DNC is hawking a car magnet which reads “WE WON BOTH OF THEM,” under the guise of its being what the President said during the SOTU. Of course, he said “I won both of them.”

    Co-opting the President, looking for donations, dumbass DNC?

    Priceless.

      There’s a scene in the movie where a man pretends he’s about to introduce himself to Dr. King and instead punches him in the face. Dr. King says to Dr. Abernathy afterward “That white boy can hit.” :-)

      That reminded me of what my mom said about Steve Perry years ago as she stopped to watch him on MTV one day when she saw me closing my eyes and swaying to this song: “That white boy can sing!” :-D

    Running & posting. Hello All! Hoping to give a TGIF giggle:

    Ode To “My Man”, Trickle Down

    Trickle Down, let me tell you!
    See, thirty some years ago
    His manhood shone like an Oscar,
    With Webster words as a halo,
    Well, and a few Heritage lingua somethings or other.
    Such a sweet tongued lover.
    Everyone said he was such a nice Fella,
    Give him a pass, why don’t you?
    Trickle Down Man.
    Voted for him again, and again
    Until it became a country song,
    With Trickle Down lyrics.
    But, one day Trickle Down
    Tried to Robin Hood my bedcovers.
    That was the beginning.
    Beginning of what, you ask?
    His expiration date.

    -TGIF, Gazelle
