I remember spending Christmas Eve at my paternal grandparents. They came from Italy. Gram would be cooking and my Gramp, Dad and Uncles would be playing cards at the kitchen table. There would be some loud, innocent yelling among the men..in Italian. My Gram would stop cooking, go to the table, hit it and say, “ speaka da English..speaka da English.” She knew that it was the right thing to do.
Exactly. Back then the belief was in order to get ahead one must speak English.

Key to MAGA.
Did Obama have color guard and such a formal reception for arriving dignitaries? I love it but don’t remember it. Of course the press never covered every minute of Obama’s regime either.
Exactly.
There are important things to worry about and attend to now, but perhaps after the 2018 election, Congress can tackle passing a law the English is the official language of the US. It is amazing and distressing to me that we have ballots in various languages. If you can’t speak and read English, you shouldn’t vote - Period.

Hmm...
Come to think of it, I don’t remember a color guard for the ISRAELI Prime Minister.
Nikk just talked with a friend who is a naturalist
Regarding birds flying into windows
Have you ever walked into a restaurant and thought the area was larger than it was because of a large mirror. It’s the same principle: the sun outside and darkness inside creates a mirror for the birds. She suggests using a bright light shining on the window from the inside
Wow you have been through a lot!
They don’t want to remove the tumor?
The press was always so caught up in the Rock Star Obama and ignoring the servicemen that I don’t think we ever saw the men outside. The camers were always on THE GREAT ONE!
Yoder is my Congress critter. I can contact him too as well as both my senators.
They don’t think it’s necessary yet. It’s still very small according to last years MRI. It was first diagnosed 30 years ago and was believed to be in a fold. Am going to ask tech look a bit closer at fold to see if we are deing with an iceberg type tumor
Those are great. Have used them before
I have the same problem. My size is a 5 1/2 WIDE. Can't find them anywhere not even online. I did find one pair and ordered them, but a 5 1/2 wide made in China is NOT the same as my 5 1/2 wide. :-(
Try New Balance on line. I have two pair of every day shoe with Velcro. Their width are easy to adjust. (For me it’s tighten). Once you try them on in a shoe store, you can order on line for half the price Not for dress but great for everyday
This was the biggest reason for my lurking for 2 years after I found FR back in 2000. I was quite intimidated.
There is quite a difference in the body language, the facial expressions and overall demure with DJT and Tradeau over Abe.
New Balance is my favorite shoe especially for walking.
Son who has special problems was told to wear NB, he goes through 2 pairs a year but doesn’t have the feet stress problems he used to have.
