Wow, amk. No one has yet said congrats on furst. So let me say Congrats! And thanks for all the great cartoons,tweets and funny photos you post. These days I’m looking for laughs any place I can get them, and I know I will always find some at TOD thanks to you.
And good evening to everyone at TOD. And sweet dreams, too.
That’s happened when my adult son calls out “Mom” in a store, when we’re together (well, I hope it’s only when I’m with him - Ha!) … every Mom in the zip code looks up. So, now he calls, “Jackie!” Makes me laugh every time.
I see Ms NerdyW is on a roll - thank you kindly, my lady. I can make quick run-ins and get a quick idea of what’s ongoing.
Now that I’ve rediscovered online Scrabble, my poor eyes have been doing triple duty. It’s been years since I’ve had a chance to play so I’m making the most of my ‘new’ discovery.
Just saw DWS on Don Lemon’s show on CNN, from Las Vegas. Even her neck was red, being asked about the infighting. I’m so damn disappointed with her. Why does she think she speaks for all Democrats? She doesn’t speak for me.
To see DWS fast-talk thru "why only six debates, why DNC vice-chair disinvited from debate" very disappointing. Not a good look for @DNC.
Speaking of San Diego, just watched the end of the San Diego/Pittsburgh Monday Night Football game. What an ending! San Diego moves ahead by three with two minutes left. Michael Vick marches the team down the field and with the ball on the one foot line and five seconds left, the coach Mike Tomlin, says to himself ‘let’s forget the field goal tie and win this thing in regular time.’ So he calls a wildcat play with LeVeon Bell running it in,the ball barely crossing the goal as time runs out. Kudos for courage to Mike Tomlin and to a great performance by Michael Vick, LeVeon Bell, and the rest of the Steeler team.
Hey Liberal Librarian! If you’re out there lurking, hope you’re feeling better soon! Take good care of yourself! Come back as soon as you can. Missing you here in the village!

I seem to have a vague recollection of people being hopeful before this Tulsi person was elected/chosen - she was Dem and 1st female something or other if I remember correctly. What I’m hearing of her behaviour once in office demonstrates for me one example why I’m not always gung-ho when people start talking about wanting a woman this or that. IMO people ought to be chosen by the content of their character AND their performances, values, and ideas. It’s why I get irritable when I hear people say it’s time for a female U.S president. It’s time for another president of character, purpose and a sincere heart for the people - whatever his/her sex. When a woman comes along who fills these requirements, THEN it’ll be time for a female prezzy!
You are so right, vc, and Tulsi is an excellent example. She talked a good line, and the addition of a Dem female vet to the House seemed like a great idea. But she started ‘showing her independence’ from PBO very quickly. I wrote to her numerous times, and countered her emails with specifics. No reply from her office. Senator Schultz, who many people felt wasn’t representative of Hawaii, has consistently supported and promoted President Obama’s initiatives, which tells me all I need to know about who I’ll work to re-elect.
This truly seems like a way around term limits to me. They have issues if he can’t be 100% in the campaign - and it seems it would cause problems if he was 100% in the campaign.
CNN Has An Emergency Debate Podium Ready For Biden http://t.co/2Anvem5Upc pic.twitter.com/4Kzd0CuPGD

“Per CNN’s debate rules, Biden could jump in at the 11th hour since he’s polling at more than 1 percent in at least three national, recognized polls — but insiders told CNN he’s likely to sit Tuesday out. “
NW - as usual tweets that give the whole story - and more
Ms Chips - glad to hear the news on Danny - keeping him quiet for 6 weeks sounds rather like trying to keep the grandbabe in check when she was ill - like NO chance.
At Krueger National Park, South Africa. Rangers here say the “documents” for the “hunt” of Cecil the lion by the Minneapolis dentist were bogus, that the so-called hunt was “target practice” rather than a legitimate hunt. They gave an interesting talk about the differences. They found it all quite disgusting but said everyone involved is now covering their own butts and nothing will change.

He said he was going to dispense with the tie more often. I hope so.
Ok, out with it. What’s your Twitter name?

What a wedding picture? I am sure when you walk into their home that picture they took with POTUS will be the first to be seen.

These images are GREAT, NW. So glad our President is back home, although he looks a little tired!

Michael Vick is my least favorite person next to Tom Brady.
However watched the game myself and enjoyed it although I am not a fan of the chargers or the Steelers.
Well Jeff,
Your Seahawks didn’t do so well!
Yeah. Not our best season that’s true. At least we’re not dog fighters though.
Bill R.,
For us in San Diego, the ending of today’s football game was a heartbraker.
I wish the Cowboys had Michael Vick instead of Brandon Wheaton, I really wish Tony Romo and Dez Bryant was back.
The only opera singer whose name i recognize and whom I could identify without a caption! :)

Wait a minute, I didn’t know Lib-L was sick. I just thought he was taking one of his occasional breaks.
Lib-L, hope you get better as soon as soon can be!
pssst > If it makes you better, the soup’s from Dudette and I. ;) ;) :D
Way to go Mom!

Thank you for posting that tweet, Dudette.
Congrats on 1st amk :)
TY NW and Chips for all the excellent FPs!!! Such a treat to visit TOD even after an exceedingly long day.
#LetsRollJoe
good night TOD …………
Try to squeeze in one exceedingly short day, somehow, Bob!
Goodnight to you.

Somebody at Salon has lost their ever-loving mind.
At this stage, talk is cheap! The first test to prove that Bernie can win in a red state will be the February, 2016, SC primary.

^5 VC!

Hi.
Bye.
On my way to bed after a night of Scrabble. :)
1. I don’t care either way.
2. But good. Then he won’t try to yell out the answers.
3. Goodnight, TODville!

Oops, I’m almost as late as last night. I’m a-going right this minute. Sweet dreams, everyone!
May I be Sunny for Halloween? We rarely see Sunny and her photos are rare. She rarely speaks and no one notices when she does.
“Per CNN’s debate rules, Biden could jump in at the 11th hour since he’s polling at more than 1 percent in at least three national, recognized polls — but insiders told CNN he’s likely to sit Tuesday out. “

See you soon! :-)
