Heard one of these guys this morning. Had to bring out the phone since I had 6 birds decide to sing loudly at the same time. It was beautiful.

Now I know what I have to watch tomorrow! And Bob Marley just smacked me upside the head for not catching it the first time around.

Not to mention that autism existed centuries before vaccines.

May not be looking for Cajuns, but I’m pretty sure a few “overheard” conversations as to where their “prey” is hiding, might lead to needing a guide to lead them. Considering the intelligence (think orange cats have more brain cells) of ICE, pretty sure there are a few that think they know the swamp

Only thing he was 100% on was the tax cuts & regulation push backs. Nothing helps the regular person. As to the files. Why didn’t he have them released months ago? He didn’t need Congress to vote on it. Releasing the Trumpenstein files, without an act of Congress, is well within his powers.

No. Actually makes sense that the weasel did it. That was the year the Cubs could do no wrong. We should have known something was wrong when the Series started. It almost righted itself, but they won game 5. That started the downfall. I felt a disturbance in the force that day.

Watched 3/4 of the first movie. Hated it. Won’t watch part 2. Won’t write a review either

I’ve been eating non-breakfast food for breakfast for decades. I think it’s genetic though. Pretty sure my parents/grandparents did & my kids do. Our attitude is, whatever you feel like eating & what’s the easiest to get.

12 yrs for me. No Ten Commandments on the wall. There were Bibles, but we used them for religious ed.

Assault & Battery is a face to face confrontation where you fear for your well being & you are physically attacked. In the case with the reporter, if drumpf had actually laid hands on her or hit her, assault & battery. He wanted to, it was obvious in his voice, mannerism, & body language.

Battery does not always involve assault. You may not feel threatened by the person, so it’s an out of the blue attack. Battery is also used in a sneak attack. You don’t realize that someone is about to do you harm, so the fear factor involved in assault is missing. 4/

When someone aggressively points at you, wagging their finger in your face, & using demeaning derogatory language, you may feel that, physically, they will lay hands on you. Drumpf assaulted the reporter, his body language showed that he wanted to physically attack her. 3/

But, it turns out these can be charged as 3 different crimes depending on what happens.
Assault means you are, or feel you are, being physically attacked. You don’t have to be physically touched, but, generally, you’re afraid that the person confronting you will injure you. 2/

I’ve read the book. I’ve seen the movie. I don’t care how often I read the book or watch the movie, I can never remember enough of it to visualize it. I remember books I read 50+ yrs ago. Plot, characters, some need a re-read of 2 paragraphs to jog my memory, but I remember them. Not this one

I heard a claim by someone from the WH that the flag was “not laying on the ground, but on as in a container.” Both are wrong. The flag, when taken down, should have 2 people waiting for the flag to be lowered by a 3rd party. Then the flag is to be properly folded. Learned that as a Girl Scout.

It’s a very odd movie. May have to re-watch “Dave Made a Maze”.

Always happens that way.

Got my 1st pair of New Balance in 2013. Replaced them 2 yrs ago. Love ‘em. Comfy & they come in my size, which is not easy to find (8.5 WW). Great fit & good for walking, running, & working out.

The Galloping Gourmet (Graham Kerr), Julia Child, Yan Can Cook (Martin Yan), Justin Wilson, & some I’ve probably forgotten about. Each of them taught me something about cooking that I use to this day, not to mention all the cookbooks. Though my knife skills definitely need more work.

Not so much a shortage down here, except during Covid, but also an item that is shoplifted on a regular basis.
