Morning Dudette. The US is nutty was supposed to follow AMKās toon about Agrabah. Comments just seem to land anywhere they please lately. Hope you have a great day.
What kinda Satanic ritual shiggity have ya gotten yourself mixed up in, Chips? Did someone slip you a Mickey when you werenāt looking?
Listen, youāll need a lawyer, but donāt worry.. You can get out of it on account of not being on your right mind at the time! The nightmare will be over soon, dear!
[handing you a wet cloth for your forehead] š
Great furst, AMK. Morning, Chips. Iām so glad to see our first family finally making it to Hawaii. Hope they store up lots of warmth and sunshine to carry them through the long winter.
To be honest Jackie, Iām kinda hoping itāll be the last this festive season. I had three glasses of wine at the lunch thingie and was ready to be stretchered out of there. Even though Iām so young, I donāt think Iām able for this fast living any more.
Truth! Actually itās better than that: I remembered it as 10 glasses, but itās 1 glass = 1 hour gym time. So with ten glasses, youād be drunk, but really physically fit! http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2015/03/04/a-glass-of-red-wine-is-the-equivalent-to-an-hour-at-the-gym-says-new-study_n_7317240.html
I really think I deserve special recognition or a prize of some sort for bringing this to your attention, even as I lay exhausted on my bed of pain after 7 hours of second grade holiday ‘funā.
At our Dem party on Thursday, we had no alcohol, but dozens and dozens of cookies and sweets. People ate so much sugar, I think some of them drifted off into a coma. Even the diehard Bernie supporters got quiet and started looking a little dazed.
Good morning Ms. Chips, Danny and TOD family, I hope all is well with everyone this lovely Saturday morning. Congrats amk, on being FURST this morning.
To all, I hope you project your classy, dashing, and elegant, personality today. <3<3<3
Thank God that President Obama is still the President of The United States of America. āš āš āš
Welp Iāve already blown the classy, dashy and elegant thing this morning, but thanks for your kind thoughts RanMan! Wishing you a scrumptious Saturday! š
Dudette, I donāt believe that one-bit. Those characteristic are inherently w/n The Ultimate Dame. So, whatever youāve done, Iām sure it was done classically, dashingly, and elegantly. šššš
FIRST FAMILY ARRIVES IN HAWAII EARLY SATURDAY MORNING
President Obama and his family touched down in Hawaii early Saturday morning. Air Force One landed at Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam at around 2:10 a.m. … Video - http://khon2.com/2015/12/18/first-family-expected-to-arrive-in-hawaii-early-saturday-morning/
Good morning, TOD! Moving slooooooow this a.m.; due at my cousinās Christmas Brunch in an hour and Iāve not yet had my first cup of coffee. I swear, the pot drips slower when Iām desperate for a cup…
Jazziz, I put mine on a timer, so itās all ready when I sneak downstairs for a cup at 6 am. If I had to make coffee and wait for it to brew in the morning, I would be too grouchy to even think about facing the day.
John Kerry is nothing short of amazing as SOS. Heās determined to pack as much greatness as possible into this last year before his retirement. He and our President are like unstoppable juggernauts.
Meta, I hate that PBO and FLOTUS have to go through this every time families are torn apart by senseless tragedies. No other president has had this kind of load and I doubt any future president would have the sensitivity to care. Can you even imagine one of those Republican idiots coming to comfort you. I would run shrieking, begging them to stay away from me.
Bob, I so totally agree with this. It would be outrageous if these brave Kurdish women didnāt have a prominent place in Syriaās future government. I hope this isnāt a “women do all the difficult work and men get the rewards” situation, but I wouldnāt be surprised if it were.
SPEAKING OF CHARACTERS…THEY CLOSED DOWN THE PLAINFIELD MALL AND THEATRE LAST NITE…THREATS AGAIN….AND MY MOLD SITUATION IN MY HOUSE IS HUGE….PACKING AND PACKING!…OUTTA HERE!
Gāmorning Chips & TOD! Congrats Sir Amk on #1! Happy Saturday everyone. :)
Itās not beyond me to think that this whole DNC/DWS/Sanders/Clinton data “scandal” yesterday was a cheap stunt to get people to watch a debate which no one otherwise would have cared to watch the last Saturday before Christmas.
Letās be honest - the three current Dem candidates are uninspiring, even though the worst of them is better than the best of the GOP. Furthermore, there is no real primary. Clinton has been coronated from day 1 and she will likely win the nomination. I will perform my civic duty as a matter of responsibility and vote for the Dem party come election day, but honestly, this is not an election that gets my blood flowing the right way.
I agree hf2 so concentrate on local races, volunteer to phone bank for Dems in other states to increase our #s in house & senate. The SCOTUS balance of crazy is at stake. ACA and future safety of PBO and his legacy is at stake as well. I can see a GOP president, house and senate doing great damage.
As I said jojo, I will not sit out the election. I WILL VOTE for Dem candidates - up and down-ballot as is my civic duty. I fully understand the negative consequences of not voting.
I donāt know what happened but the overreaction by all involved was just beyond stupid. Why did HRCās campaign people have to turn the drama up to ELEVENTY? And why did St. Bernieās camp have to light their hair on fire over the charges when there was plenty of evidence? And then thereās DWS, who somehow thought this would be a good thing for the party to hash out in front of our insatiable toxic media? I mean, GEEZE, get your freakinā act together!!!
Had a thought on that too. Then I came to the conclusion that had the HRC Camp been the ones harvesting Sandersā Data………the Sandarnisters, Sanders himself, US Corporate News Media, Many leftists and the Whole RWNJ would be on this and the end result, HRC would have been damaged beyond repair. HRC is Never given the benefit of doubt. She is convicted and sentenced before any investigative work is done. A pinch of accusation of any wrong doing, Hillary R. Clinton is Convicted and Sentenced. UnAmerican. However, in her case, 1001% a perceived reality.
In this weekās ignorant pig news, Gilbert Arenas starts his bid to become Trumpās Presidential Advisor on Sports. [I wonder if that asshole has daughters.]
Love Swin Cashās response.
This holiday season never mind the gifts you can or can't afford if you have your health you have EVERYTHING.
Sue, did they find the source of the threats? I hope you get a break some time soon-a mildew free home, with good neighbors and a welcoming environment.
THANK YOU JACKIE…WEāVE BEEN BOMBARDED WITH THREATS…HIGH SCHOOLS AND MALL AND THEATRE….THANKS FOR THE NEW ENVIRONMENT WISHES…MAYBE MARS WILL HAVE SOMETHING!…MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU!
Red Cross CEO Gail McGovern, who was hired to revitalize the charity, has cut hundreds of chapters and thousands of employees.
by Justin Elliott, ProPublica
December 14, 2025
WHEN GAIL MCGOVERN WAS PICKED to head the American Red Cross in 2008, the organization was reeling. Her predecessor had been fired after impregnating a subordinate. The charity was running an annual deficit of hundreds of millions of dollars.
A former AT&T executive who had taught marketing at Harvard Business School, McGovern pledged to make the tough choices that would revitalize the Red Cross, which was chartered by Congress to provide aid after disasters. In a speech five years ago, she imagined a bright future, a ārevolutionā in which there would be āa Red Cross location in every single community.āā
It hasnāt worked out that way.
McGovern and her handpicked team of former AT&T colleagues have presided over a string of previously unreported management blunders that have eroded the charityās ability to fulfill its core mission of aiding Americans in times of need.
Under McGovern, the Red Cross has slashed its payroll by more than a third, eliminating thousands of jobs and closing hundreds of local chapters. Many veteran volunteers, who do the vital work of responding to local fires and floods have also left, alienated by what many perceive as an increasingly rigid, centralized management structure.
Far from opening offices in every city and town, the Red Cross is stumbling in response to even smaller scale disasters.
It was a nice article. Our POTUS and FLOTUS represented us well. I had to smile when the lady said that FLOTUS said that she would rap at the fundraising concert they will be having. She must have seen the Go to College video. :)
Wow!
The way that photo looks, I had a heard time focusing. I keep seeing Pres Obamaās face and Mrs Michelle Obamaās dress. I need new glasses. I canāt wait for the 1st of the year to get a new one.
On a personal note, today would have been my husbandās 85th birthday. So, as youāre going about your daily business, I just ask for a thought, or prayer or light as my son and his family and I go through this day. A year ago we had a big dinner party for him, and wish we could have one today. However, I have become very thankful that he did not linger for five years in a nursing home as his mother did. The heart disease took him, and took him without pain and loss of his dignity.
Also, our first year of marriage, way back in 1966, we lived in Redlands, and both of us worked in San Bernardino, so this incident has been very close to me. He worked for the County education office, traveling the entire county as school psychologist. He traveled to Big Bear, Trona, Needles, all over the largest county in the U.S. I taught at Del Vallejo Junior High. While doing all that, he also drove into L.A. to school to increase his education and knowledge in his field. He was a remarkable man.
Today our church feeds the homeless, and distributes a gift package to each person with a warm sweatshirt, scarf, hat and gloves for the winter. I canāt think of a better way to celebrate my husbandās birthday. Thanks to all of you for your support this year. You are a remarkable group.
_/|\_ Light all around you and your family, Carolyn. Even as we progress and rebalance our grief, the first year brings us moments of intensity, as we remember and cherish those we love. They are so close, we just cannot see them, but we can feel them, for sure. <3
You and your husband are very special people. The world needs many more like you. You have great memories to tide you through the season and years to come.
Whenever the First Family deplane in Hawaii, I am always taken back to the first moment I set foot in those beautiful islands, being washed by the scent of the frangipani on the soft trade winds. It is a complete revisitation, not just a fleeting memory! Bless them, may they play, rest, rejuvenate and enjoy their time together. Mr President, please play as many rounds of golf as you can!! :bear:
Ask Mark if he know if the President enjoyed his nine rounds of golf, four family beach outings, five dinners out, and eight workouts? I hope he did. And I hope he enjoy the times Mark didnāt mention, like just sitting around the house, talking to family, friends, FLOTUS, Malia, Sasha. reading a book. I hope the President, First Lady, Malia, Sasha enjoy their vacation.
FURST. 8-)
Cheater cheater cheater………
I mean, Congrats on furst Amk :) :) :)
furst is furst. 8-)
Says who? :) :) :)
:lol: :lol: :lol:
Cheaty McCheatistein!

Inglish only? What, you in the running for Chief “Diplomacy” Officer in Trumplandia? [heās renaming the country when he takes over. Heil Trump!]
wus shooting for alliteration. scored. 8-)
Morning Blovid!
Heh !!! Donāt you start again.
Oh god, looks like sheās still lit up like a Christmas tree, huh?
Americans sure are good at making themselves international laughing stocks. The ignorance is just jaw dropping.
What madness has “Murka wrought today, jg?
Morning Dudette. The US is nutty was supposed to follow AMKās toon about Agrabah. Comments just seem to land anywhere they please lately. Hope you have a great day.
Ohhh okay. Carry on. š
Hope you have a great day too! š

Good Morning TOD Family and party animal Chipsticks.
:-) Gooooooood morning JoJo!!
I hear you were dancing on tables swinging from chandeliers at your Xmas party…..
Worse JoJo, much worse: I married Amk when I got back to TOD :???:
Jumpinā Jehosiphat! š³š²
What kinda Satanic ritual shiggity have ya gotten yourself mixed up in, Chips? Did someone slip you a Mickey when you werenāt looking?
Listen, youāll need a lawyer, but donāt worry.. You can get out of it on account of not being on your right mind at the time! The nightmare will be over soon, dear!
[handing you a wet cloth for your forehead] š
A few drinks and you find a new husband - every year.
Bestest of the awesome best! š
Great furst, AMK. Morning, Chips. Iām so glad to see our first family finally making it to Hawaii. Hope they store up lots of warmth and sunshine to carry them through the long winter.
Good morning to ya, Jackie!
Hi, Chips, hope yesterdayās party was the first of many for you.
To be honest Jackie, Iām kinda hoping itāll be the last this festive season. I had three glasses of wine at the lunch thingie and was ready to be stretchered out of there. Even though Iām so young, I donāt think Iām able for this fast living any more.
Hahaha ha. what happened to us we canāt take a little partying? A glass of wine or three or four and weāre ready for bed :( :( no fair no more fun.
I think itās because we are such good people all year, never straying from a moral path, that we canāt handle the outbreak of naughty booziness.
*we* are such good people???? Does that include *you*? Really???
LOL!
… I mean, how dare you impugn our Precious Petuniaās reputation! [cough, cough] š
:D :D just calling it like I see it ….when I look closely
I just read an article that said ten glasses of free wine is the same as an hour in the gym. Straight up. So go to it!
Whaaaaaaaaaat??? :lol: Thatās the greatest article in the history of articles!!!!
Truth! Actually itās better than that: I remembered it as 10 glasses, but itās 1 glass = 1 hour gym time. So with ten glasses, youād be drunk, but really physically fit! http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2015/03/04/a-glass-of-red-wine-is-the-equivalent-to-an-hour-at-the-gym-says-new-study_n_7317240.html

How nancy smash and reid rickrolled the thugs into passing 1.1T budget. Great read even gopolitico.
http://www.politico.com/story/2015/12/congress-budget-deal-tick-tock-216938
Nancy is amazing and it looks as if Reid was very tough. They both got the best deal they could and I hope complaining Democrats recognize that.
Good Morning BFF and TOD.
Moooooooooooorning BFF!!!!
Good morning Ms. Chips, Danny and TOD family, I hope all is well with everyone this lovely Saturday morning. Congrats amk, on being FURST this morning.
To all, I hope you project your classy, dashing, and elegant, personality today. <3 <3 <3

Haha, jazziz. I wholeheartedly agree. Have a good day.
Jazziz, I put mine on a timer, so itās all ready when I sneak downstairs for a cup at 6 am. If I had to make coffee and wait for it to brew in the morning, I would be too grouchy to even think about facing the day.
Hiya Alycee! Chrstmas Brunch sounds terrific. Have a great time!
Congrats amk :)
Interesting perspective ….
Also this ….
Should have posted it earlier in the week
While itās becoming ever clearer to the rest of humanity that a bunch of Americans are ignorant, bigoted puppets of the kleptocrats ….
Fortunately for us and the rest of humanity, these guys were at the table ….
And, we better be certain on 9 Nov 2016, after the dust settles, we have elected folk who will expand their legacy.
Yes We Can
They are owed such a huge debt of thanks - by the whole world really. #legacy
Absolutely, Dudette!!
John Kerry is nothing short of amazing as SOS. Heās determined to pack as much greatness as possible into this last year before his retirement. He and our President are like unstoppable juggernauts.
So much THIS it canāt be measured!
So very true, JackieG!!!
Good morning, Chips and TODville.
Difficult days but POTUS and FLOTUS are always there whenever and wherever needed.
Meta, I hate that PBO and FLOTUS have to go through this every time families are torn apart by senseless tragedies. No other president has had this kind of load and I doubt any future president would have the sensitivity to care. Can you even imagine one of those Republican idiots coming to comfort you. I would run shrieking, begging them to stay away from me.
My orbit is a Republican-free zone!
jackiegrumbacher, “H” No, I can not imagine Trump and his wife doing this.
Trump would tweet to the people if only your loved one carried a gun.
Good Morning, Everyone :)
Had to go into work today….busy time for us.
Do whatcha gotta do, girl. Weāll be here when ya get back. Make the day count!
Iām quite fond of the images Dilbar uses in her morning (and evening) greetings, so Iām trying to share a few of them with all of you ….
Other updates in the sidebar … more later if I have time ….
Happy Saturday …. bbl ….
#Hope4ALL
Thanks so much for all the great info you share with us Bob. Endless hugs!
Bob, thanks for taking the time to share these valuable insight. ššš
My pleasure, Dudette and RanMan!!!!
Bob, I so totally agree with this. It would be outrageous if these brave Kurdish women didnāt have a prominent place in Syriaās future government. I hope this isnāt a “women do all the difficult work and men get the rewards” situation, but I wouldnāt be surprised if it were.
I donāt think these women will allow anyone to push them aside, JackieG!!!!!
Great News!
Very nice article on the two Bostonians of the Year:
I LOVE THAT CHISELED JOHN KERRY FACE…HE HAS ALOT OF CHARACTER!
Heck Iād be stalking āem too if I could. š
For real thoā
Yep. Also, if you and “your loved ones” have their health, your have everything.
Absolutely!
SPEAKING OF CHARACTERS…THEY CLOSED DOWN THE PLAINFIELD MALL AND THEATRE LAST NITE…THREATS AGAIN….AND MY MOLD SITUATION IN MY HOUSE IS HUGE….PACKING AND PACKING!…OUTTA HERE!
Sounds like you could use a getaway Sue. Wishing you safe travels and a Merry Christmas!
FAR AWAY ISNāT FAR ENOUGH!
IāM AFRAID CHRISTMAS THIS YEAR WILL JUST BE ANOTHER PACKING DAY.
