The agley American media vastly under reports the size of the recent payroll tax increase.

I cut my walk short at 8, came back and started doing invoices for the little bit of work in December-even a nature freak like me is not into hiking on a rocky trail with light rain and snow/sleet when it is 37...

All the accounts are really agley
Concerning Hillary and her woes
I think her job is the problem
And now it certainly shows

Is she really being paid enough
To get dragged into all this grief-
Risking her health and credence
For the egotistical idiot in chief?

Even though I think Bill rules her
I’m sympathetic, I must confess-
She managed to let herself be used
As the smokescreen in this mess

Things are gonna get agley in the cities when the mob is outta bread and circuses-let us be glad we do not live there...

I don’t know, did you see the stockings Katie Pavlich tweeted the other day?

Your talented poem aside, I have a different opinion about hillary - I think she is involved up to her eyeballs in the coverup and is covering her own arse by not testifying. I don't think she has any worries about her future because liberals will support WHOEVER is nominated - look how they turned on her for the articulate newcomer. I've already seen braindead liberals saying "michelle/Hillary 2016"..... seriously.

They already know that they will continue to win as long as they have the democratic ground game going forcing folks to vote as well as their fraud in a few key states. We won't win another Presidential election ever.

and a wide smokescreen she is at that. A+++

the skies are clear today, but not a bright sun....with snow and lots of ice. I have to go out tonight, but I am not looking forward to it.

I think she got overconfident, though-Bill can’t protect her from everything-he owes bad people, too.

The ground game and fraud is now an open secret-God only knows what will happen next time.

And I want the Pride and Prejudice scarf-I have loved that book since I was 11, and just watched the latest movie incarnation a few nights ago for the 5th or 6th time. And haven’t we all known a man who was an ass like Mr. Darcy, but without any redeeming features?

Thank you! The wet stuff is all light intermittent rain now, but it is still barely over 40 out-I saved some coals in the fireplace last night under a clay pot, put some wood on them earlier, and so have a hot, slow burning bed of coals, which I will start the fire with tonight...

Yes, she could pull them off.

I wonder if you could wear them through TSA?

Sure you could. Seen from a standing upright position even in a mini skirt I don’t think it’s immediately obvious what it is.

Does anyone really believe that fainting from the flu story? I suspect too much Nyquil or its equivalent.
