No. No. That creak you hear is my lower back protesting from today’s gardening. There is no climbing in my forecast for tonight; actually limping backwards, trying to catch up.
Again, most of these kids were mere toddlers when PBO got elected. He’s all they know, and they should be taking him for granted, yet you can see the excitement on some of their faces. 🙂 🙂
Oh Alycee. I’m deeply sorry. I got stuck working. Can you believe my boss actually expected me to DO stuff with all this wonderful news going on today. Please accept my apologies. I’m so bummed. I bet the dinner was scrumptuous too.
Beside, you wouldn’t want me doing the dishes anyway — not unless you’re looking to buy a new set and would be entertained watching my sirene-ineptness destroy all things glass and porcelain. 🙂
Teeheehee- that’s weird! All that caught my eye was the ‘side-eye’ reference because you used it so well the first time I met it that I decided to co-op it into my lexicon. 🙂 Going back now to look at his pantsuits. Chuckle.
Bob, what gets me most about this kind of coverage is that it is entirely focused on the discomfort of visitors to the World Cup and inconveniences they may endure – fact is, Brazilian construction workers have died in the rush to finish building the stadia, that’s the real scandal. It’s utterly disgusting, the whole damn thing.
Yup..why don’t we just put her on Mt. Rushmore already – even though we have no clue if she will in fact run or where she stands on any issue important to ordinary Americans…
MSNBC has been on a #ReadyForHillary campaign all day today it seems. Her advisers/sponsores must have received some negative internal polling info and instructed to turn up the heat a bit…
The fact that she doesn’t seem to feature anywhere in the 2014 elections suggests that she’s no where as popular as the media or the GOP are claiming…
I look around for good news to bring to you, but when I click on The Obama Diary and see it coming up in my screen I feel such relief. There is pure positive energy radiating from this site and all of you! I’m very tired so will share a couple of items another time, but I looked through today’s posts and didn’t see this.
I know Pres Obama and AG Holder have done a lot to reduce sentencing, ending the drug war. This short article doesn’t talk about that, but it is very good news.
3-decade-plus juggernaut growth of US prison admissions peaked 2006, began dramatic dropping under Pres Obama. Chart! http://t.co/X4xmZ0S0bc
Sanctions work! Putin’s attempts to hurt the US because of sanctions keep failing. They also say they don’t need a ride on Russian rockets. Have another plan.
Putin says NASA shutout from ISS in 2020. NASA: We don't need Russia to keep space station operational http://t.co/bwN6mBHW5E#Sanctions
I was actually hoping to share my birthday wishes for you face-to-face, but time is running out. I can tell by your absence here though, that you have had a very busy…
❤ ❤ ❤ HAPPY 22nd anniversary of your 39th BIRTHDAY! ❤ ❤ ❤
Of course, sailor. The Old Testament is folk fiction largely inspired by fear of death. The fossil record is hard, cold fact. Keeping people stupid has been the centuries-proven, stunningly successful instrument of the avaricious oppressor, whether they are cloaked in golden robes, stiff grey uniforms, or three piece biz suits.
“Separatists are demoralized. They can be finished off “
“What is your forecast for the development of events?
Separatists can be easily finished off. If they are not given any surge, like the one in Odessa. They are demoralised, they do not know what to do. They do not see any outcome. Donetsk People’s Republic, for which they live half hungry and die exists only in the Donetsk Regional Administration.”

What fun!
Congrats vetivera!!!
Great photos Chips 🙂
Thanks Bobfr.
V, you are on a roll! A snappy hand salute to you! 🙂
Right back at ya! Tried the wiggle….I like it!
Woot!
I keep trying to find a continuous loop button on YouTube, so I don’t have to keep hitting Replay. 😀
You Go To Vote! Everybody Needs to VOTE!
VOTE, VOTE… get out and VOTE!
Gold For Vetivera.
You are on a roll.
Congrats.
Gorgeous photos Chips.
Thanks Nena. My cell phone is on the roll. I’m just lucky today to have a good relationship with it.
Take me out to the ball game, Mr. President! 🙂
Hi up there, Almab! Way to go!
I’ve fallen behind again, me. 😦
So sad vc. I see the climb back to the top in your immediate future.
No. No. That creak you hear is my lower back protesting from today’s gardening. There is no climbing in my forecast for tonight; actually limping backwards, trying to catch up.
Oil that creak quick!
Need a masseur – can’t twist back to reach the creaks. Ay yi yi, this aging/aching is the pits!
sending some healing thoughts your way…
😂😂 My eyes saw ‘healing’ and my brain supplied ‘oil’ before connecting with ‘thoughts’. Teeheehee! Thank you kindly, Almab.
See you at the post in the morning!
Okey-dokey. Have a good rest if you aren’t working tonight! And a good night’s work if you have to go in.
I’m off to bed. No work tonight. Thanks vc
Sweet dreams, Ab!

I feel like my heart has been melting all day.
How sweet is it to have POTUS visit your Little League game?! Love these photos.
I know POTUS is going to pitch tourism as he visits the Baseball Hall of Fame this week. Maybe he’s just warming up.
Good evening, TOD.
Dudette, I waited until 6:20, then proceeded to eat my dinner. Ticked that since you didn’t show, I got stuck doing the dishes… LOL
Oh Alycee. I’m deeply sorry. I got stuck working. Can you believe my boss actually expected me to DO stuff with all this wonderful news going on today. Please accept my apologies. I’m so bummed. I bet the dinner was scrumptuous too.

Fave. Fave. Fave.
Tee, hee! I love it too.
I see someone on Twitter re-tweeted and them immediately turned the image into their avi. 🙂
Coolest. President. EVER.
So what is this latest kerfuffle with Wikileaks, Assange, Greenwald, et al?
https://twitter.com/bungdan/status/468525236863123456
OOOooooooh, love it, as we always suspected, the dollar-grabbing ego-maniac rats would turn on each other 🙂
The big crooks try to hang the little crooks!
You said it, Shipmate!
I’m cookin’ up some popcorn and grabbing a beer. 😉
Proper buttery popcorn? Can you email me some??
Aye Admiral. It’s underway via drone. 😆 ❤

I so love this photo. POTUS has an gorgeously intriguing profile.
These sick bastards.
They are itching to roll all of us back to the Stone Age. Effers.
We won’t let them. It’ll take a while longer, but we won’t let them!
Why would the GOP want to do that? Well the GOP don’t give a dam if you have health insurance, so why should they care if you eat healthy.
They don’t care if some people eat, just look at how they are cutting food stamps.
They certainly don’t care if children don’t eat healthy, based on this. Unless it’s their children, of course.

Awwww….How cute! And Lawrence is sporting a beard… 🙂 🙂
That little visitor will cheer up anyone.
That was my first thought. Aw, look at that precious cutie pie.
Hey Dudette, this made me think of you with a chuckle. I first heard the expression ‘side-eye’ from you.
😀 😀 😀
Dude has a rainbow of Hillary pantsuits as his profile picture. [sigh!] 🙄
Teeheehee- that’s weird! All that caught my eye was the ‘side-eye’ reference because you used it so well the first time I met it that I decided to co-op it into my lexicon. 🙂 Going back now to look at his pantsuits. Chuckle.
Yeah, the pantsuits are a bit…… odd! I will say no more on the subject. 🙄
Apparently he’s got mad love for Hillary and/or her pantsuits.
And not enough fashion (or political?) discrimination/taste, I’d whisper. At least he’s on the right side of the fence.
https://twitter.com/Green_Footballs/status/468498182683389953
These guys need to be indicted, arrested, and prosecuted. Period.

Maybe this was shared here already but it won’t hurt for it to keep surfacing, so no apologies if it has.

Dick for real.
I prefer “penis cap”.

If you had one word to describe Chris Cillizza what would it be?
I know what it wouldn’t be ‘journalists’.
Don’t know the latest, but I’d be delighted if Speaker Pelosi unleashed Grayson on the #BenghaziClownShow ….
https://twitter.com/Our4thEstate/status/468554323836694528
I’d pay to see that:)
I have to laugh…
Oops, Chips please delete if you can – I meant to post something else, not this, which I have already posted. Thanks! 🙂
This could get really ugly …..

As I tweeted, an errant meteorite striking Sepp Blatter would chuff me to no end.
Oooooh, that sounds too perfect LL!
I find the entire spectacle totally disgusting, Chips.

Hey, it’s still prettyfoot’s birthday. She must be in full celebration mode. 🙂
We need more songs about feet and shoes!
‘She must be in full celebration mode’
Indeed!
PrettyFoot,
I was actually hoping to share my birthday wishes for you face-to-face, but time is running out. I can tell by your absence here though, that you have had a very busy…

May you enjoy many, many more years! ❤ ❤

Can anyone tell me what deck of Noah’s arc was animal placed on?
😀 😀 😀 😀 Good one, sailor!!
If we put any belief in the fossil records then the Old Testament is fiction.
Of course, sailor. The Old Testament is folk fiction largely inspired by fear of death. The fossil record is hard, cold fact. Keeping people stupid has been the centuries-proven, stunningly successful instrument of the avaricious oppressor, whether they are cloaked in golden robes, stiff grey uniforms, or three piece biz suits.
^5!
Tell ut, Bob!
My take is a little different but both of our streams are flowing toward the same river. 😉
For certain, ANY deck he wanted to be on! [… and the snare drum goes “Ba-dum-bum”] 😀
It’s a lot deeper than that 9t9.
I know. Just saw an opening, had to take it. Blame my inner 12-yr old. 🙂
Okay by me. 12 is good. 😆 ^5
