Perfect! A+++
LOL Santa downsized our Christmas for the 2nd year in a row. Sales are too good to believe, so I am thinking lots of folks have downsized.
Obozo......but he’s a Dem. LOL That name IS very familiar. A+++
I’ll have to save it for reading over the weekend. The school bus approaches and my time will be spent tutoring. Sounds like a fascinating article. A+++
A+++ cute.
LOL....my son was a manager at Starbucks once. He gets his news from Jon Stewart. RME While he is conservative to the core, he sees things differently only because he doesn’t get FOX News.
Another spot of sanity in this crazy world. Good for them. A+++
I apologize to all of you in class......I went shopping this morning then I went for an early lunch, took my tablet....when I turned it on it was on WwFs so I played all four games I have going with no problem....THEN when I tried to log on here, the internet went out. It said I was logged on to the Wifi where I was lunching, but it said no internet service. SO, I finished up lunch and continued Christmas shopping. I scored a pile of books at Ollie’s. All discounted CHEAP. Anyone else have an Ollie’s?
Yes, there’s one here. I’ve never set foot in it though.
On a purely selfish note this isn’t good for my state, as we are going to get passed by IN and MI.

There is an Ollie’s by me. I’ve never been there yet.
We have a Republican governor and legislature and they don’t do anything innovative or controversial.
It is interesting insofar that the Washington Post refused to print it at the time it was written, saying that American women were too faint of heart to read the gory details in 1941. IOW, the main stream media was lying to us even then.
I found it to be well written — a cut above what we see in the newspaper these days. I wonder how it finally came to see the light of day in 2012?
We’ve had one for about a year, but I hadn’t been until my DH dragged me there. Children’s books are a bargain there, which is what I bought. I have 7 kiddies to buy for. Various ages and sex. I did good. The Story of Holly and Ivy for $2.24. Couldn’t resist that classic.
For $.99 I got a practice book for printing your letters. My 1st grader needs all the practice he can get. NY state curriculum has dropped teaching printing and cursive writing. The 2 boys cannot print anything I can read. Never mind the spelling....another thing that was dropped. Computers do it for you now, doncha know. RME
I think It’s Obama that believes in truckle-down economics...
Thank you!
