Whoa, sorry. Weird is right – maybe NW will delete it.. it was an old article about how the GOP are putting millions of people out of work just to put one guy out of his job. From the 2012 campaigns… guess they failed, eh? They will continue to fail, all the way to jail…
Congrats, Nancie! May you continue to enjoy your field. [ 😉 I saw your picture somewhere recently, and it actually reminded me of your familiarity with tamarind. 🙂 ]
Thank you so much, vcpreofan2! Wish we were sitting and visiting over glasses of tamarind-infused lemonade and some tasty snacks. Most kind of you and hope you are well. Looking forward to a future TOD field trip!
‘When I need a lift’
Funny you should say that – after responding to you above, I was thinking that I should have mentioned that looking through is better than a visit to a counselor. I simply look at a picture of PBO, and or Michelle, and I feel far happier and more relaxed than the moment before. Not to mention that in the case of the book, I often remember the occasion behind the pic [Yea, yea I know I wasn’t there in real life, but I sure was in spirit. 😀 😀 ]
Seconding these emotions. I just picked up the book of our beloved FLOTUS in the White House, in which the photographer writes of her conviction that the White House is The People’s House, and how our great First Lady lived that out daily, welcoming young dance troupes and school girls from Liberia and the photographer herself, reminding them that she was hosting and sharing the great and profound spaces with all of us, whose treasure it is. The goodness and beauty and reminder that there is another way which was real and true and lasted way longer than this mess, helps so much. It is good medicine and a treat and I need to take my medicine several times a day.
I won’t watch this show or her re-runs from the previous show. The Nazi-oven-baking-thing she did in 2009 should have made her an untouchable. She is a sick woman. There is nothing funny about the Holocaust and the lives lost. This is a situation where even when a “Jewish” person makes fun it’s “OK”, NO IT’S NOT!

China just called Trumps bluff. They said, we see your 2 tariffs and we raise them by 126 more! China just retaliated by imposing tariffs on 128 U.S. goods. That’s called “The Art of the Deal”!

Empathy for that Easter Bunny & the kids. Looked like Easter Bunny wanted to hop off that balcony when Dotard went into his “it’s all about ME” spiel. Dood, this was a kid event, nothing to do w/ your fractured ego. Uggh, spreading The Ugly at every every turn.
If the so-called 4th Estate continues it’s dereliction, they will be rendered null & void. Whenever there’s a void, another form of truthiness arises. Try as they might, truth finds a path forward. My one wish is that Dotard goes down & takes his cohorts into Gehenna w/ him, a ride down Dante’s inferno. Am so done w/ these vindictive grifters & How they’re constantly getting away with their crap.
Am running out of polite words. Rapidly! Lawdy, when does this nightmare end? Can’t stand another second of these grifters dismantling all that’s good in our country. So much damage & they’re so empowered to do so. Screw their oath of office, country first. Meaning of “Grifters” is me first, not-sorry I just screwed you. Again & again. On you, dumb ass!

About to go on a rant, but hear me out: There’s been a lot of discussion about the Sinclair issue, and as most of you who follow the media know, they’re about to close on a deal to acquire Tribune stations. But there’s one thing nobody is talking about that I’d like to address.
The FCC though seems unwilling to act on the UHF Discount though. So it’s up to you and me. Call your elected officials and demand they close the UHF Discount loophole. The airwaves are public. You own them. Companies like Sinclair can’t be allowed to dominate them.
They ARE the swamp!! ANd a corrupt and immoral one at that!
Using the Safe Drinking Act to evade the ethics pledge to hire a chemical industry lobbyist is the Trump Administration in a nutshell. https://t.co/hGgzSHwamM

This is so much of what “American exceptionalism” ingrains in us—that there is inherent “goodness” in what we do. We collectively delude to ourselves.

Alex van der Zwaan has arrived at the courtroom, with a pretty sizeable entourage. Hearing is set to start soon – no phones/tweeting allowed in there, stay tuned

Trump is lying again. Amazon has saved the postal service, and it’s so profitable for the USPS that they’ve added Sunday delivery in some cities. He’s going after amazon because they own the Washington Post. This is more vengeance from a crazy despot. https://t.co/BC8ha96KlX
“The whole post office thing, that’s very much a perception he has,” a source told Axios. “It’s been explained to him in multiple meetings that his perception is inaccurate and that the post office actually makes a ton of money from Amazon.” https://t.co/dAXlhOuiuU pic.twitter.com/zzvQzhUDdQ

The real number of people who died in Hurricane Maria was over 1,000, according to new research. Trump paid it little attention, attacked the Mayor of San Juan repeatedly on Twitter, and insinuated that Puerto Ricans were lazy.

Well, hello there, and how are you? I notice you sent me some of your sunshine but not much of your heat.
Hiya there yourself!
And what did you give me in return? We’ve had cooler than normal temps. I want warm weather – now!
On another topic – have you totally peeled the book free of plastic? 😘
Yes. I actually opened it up and took a leisurely walk through; thank you. 😀 😀 Have you looked into your copy yet?
Yes, I’ve gone about half way. When I need a lift, I get a cup of tea and take a stroll through the lovely pages. /sigh

Yes she is so precious. I just love watching her and FLOTUS44.
Kudos to the Kentucky Democrat cancelling her ads in Sinclair owned stations. I hope others follow suit including advertisers.
Wasn’t attracted before and definitely was one that didn’t watch this time around.
I won’t watch this show or her re-runs from the previous show. The Nazi-oven-baking-thing she did in 2009 should have made her an untouchable. She is a sick woman. There is nothing funny about the Holocaust and the lives lost. This is a situation where even when a “Jewish” person makes fun it’s “OK”, NO IT’S NOT!
