    CANCER UPDATE:

    Haven’t given one in a while. Saw my Onc earlier this week and the new drugs seem to be working. My bone disease is better. All other markers are better except the liver. The lesion there continues to grow. If the new drug doesn’t help here (the liver) then it’s back to chemo. 😐

      oh my goodness…the obama derangement with privileged “progressives” is just insane now. from that article:
      “After Ahmed Mohamed’s clock ordeal, President Obama tweeted, ā€œCool clock, Ahmed. Want to bring it to the White House?ā€ The invitation is a nice gesture—Mohamed accepted—but it does not go far enough. George W. Bush remains the only sitting American president to have visited an American mosque; despite the pleas of leaders from the American Muslim community, Obama hasn’t ventured into a Muslim house of worship in the U.S. since assuming office.”

      so w. bush did a photo op at mosque one time while he was also killing 100s of thousands of muslims using the u.s. military, but according to the nation, he did a better job than president obama is doing at improving muslim/non-muslim relations?!? they cannot give president obama credit for literally anything.

      and of course the articles on the side of this one are about how perfect bernie sanders is, and another by john nichols salivating over rand paul and how great rand is. some liberal he is! and to think i used to subscribe to that insanity!

    Some irony given my tweet above about the campaign staffers brawl.

    This came across my Twitter feed. It’s from a woman who seems to be tweeting from an Early Education professionals conference. It struck me how often many adults forget to employ these Executive Function and Self-Regulating skills we should have learned before kindergarten, particularly in the public arena.

    If I have to go home and take a nap, I want to be able to watch Stephen Colbert tonight. He had me laughing really loud as I watched the video from the last thread someone posted. He is returning to his true Colbert form - HELLA HILARIOUS :D :D :D

    Note……last night on TRMS, Sen Sanders was there for 2-3 segments.
    When RM brought up the event at Trump’s NH event with the Racist rants, Sen Sanders NEVER once uttered a Syllable. And today, Sen Sanders is tweeting about his Disgust? He also appeared on a Morning show……that was were he made a comment denouncing the hatred.
    Seriously?

    Wow, thank you so much amk!

    I just love how posts here on TOD not only inform us about the President and today’s events, but so often lead us to other completely off-topic yet splendid things! I found Darrin Bell on Twitter and one of his recent tweets mentioned a Star Trek question he posed on his blog. A couple of the responses there lead me to this article about some music that was orchestrated based on little tune from one of my favorite episodes of Star Trek Next Generation. Amazing!

    I might never have seen this if not for you {{{{{ amk }}}}! ā¤ļø

    The article from 2012

      This comment below the video on YouTube explains why I love that episode so much (and now this music).

      “One of the most poignant episodes in Star Trek: TNG, “The Inner Light” speaks to critical point of why we seek to travel beyond our known world. All life as we know it is finite, so too the life of stars and planets. What will happen when our world is gone? Will we be remembered and if so, by whom?

      Like many fans of TNG, when I watch The Inner Light episode I choke up a bit at the end as Captain Picard sits in his personal quarters, playing the “Ressikan Flute”, vulnerable and devastatingly alone. “

        Yes…i remember that episode…in which he was endowed with the memories and experiences of a people long gone….it was truly a special episode…

        OMG!! This was the lullabye that he created for his baby in the alternate universe and it, as well as the piccolo, were they only things that Picard retained when he came to himself on board the Enterprise. Squeee !! I love this. Thanks so much. You can see that I am a total Star Trek geek.

          September 18, 2025 at 2:34 pm

          Of Course, as was pointed out, he was not alone in that the people of a long lost world lived on in his memories.

          This melody appeared again in the Star Trek NG episode in which we fell in love with a crew member. She wove a piano melody around the flute and it was as lovely as their budding relationship.

            Yes, that episode with the late Wendy Hughes (she passed away last year, RIP) is also one of my favorites too. Excellent casting.
            Lt. Commander Daren and Captain Picard were PERFECT for each other. [sigh!] <3 <3 <3

      HRC it’s hard to believe you were appalled when you and hubby attended his third wedding. The absolute best response came from VP Biden before the incident and from Gov O’Malley after the incident.
