The Obama Diary 
One lucky man!!
LP and Amk tied ….. a nightmarish twinning.
AMK is a little salty….. 😡 😡
He has to collect his daughter soon LP, hang in there.
😆 😆 😆
friggin’ indian.
What the fuck did Indians ever give us, besides our entire numbering system?
heh !!! we gave you yoga.
yoga pants? That’s your doing.
And shampoo!1!!!
Shampoo: The word shampoo in English is derived from Hindustani chāmpo (चाँपो [tʃãːpoː]),[66] and dates to 1762.[67] The shampoo itself originated in the eastern regions of the Mughal Empire that ruled erstwhile India, particularly in the Nawab of Bengal where it was introduced as a head massage, usually consisting of alkali, natural oils and fragrances. Shampoo was first introduced in Britain by a Bengali entrepreneur from Bihar named Sake Dean Mahomed, he first familiarized the shampoo in Basil Cochrane’s vapour baths while working there in the early 19th century. Later, Sake Dean Mahomed together with his Irish wife, opened “Mahomed’s Steam and Vapour Sea Water Medicated Baths” in Brighton, England. His baths were like Turkish baths where clients received a treatment of champi (shampooing). Very soon due to Sake Dean Mahomed fame as a bathing expert he was appointed ‘Shampooing Surgeon’ to both George IV and William IV.[68]
yeah, working up a lather over nothing? yeah, we are the champs at it.
Incense. Lovely, wonderful, divine sandalwood incense
we are lovely, wonderful and divine, aren’t we?
They gave Ireland half of its Minister for Health – and for that, they should never be forgiven.
😆 A classic!!!
I love the list of Irish inventions on Wiki – highlights:
14th century
Whiskey
17th century
Irish road bowling
1680s: Chocolate milk created by Hans Sloane[1]
18th century
1752: National Hunt racing
19th century
1820-25: The development of “Extra Stout” beer by The Second Arthur Guinness and others.
1834-35: The game of Croquet
1891: Tattoo machine created by Samuel O’Reilly[3]
20th century
1946: Ejection seat – first live test of a reliable, successful modern ejection seat developed by James Martin
😎
In the year of my birth, the Irish invented an ejection seat. There’s got to be a joke there somewhere.
Jacqueline, you have me HOWLING on this sunny-ish Sunday morning, too too too too funny!!!! 😆
Back off homie…
FURST.
Me
I coulda been a contender! (If my computer wasn’t sucking)
Oh stop! I could have left you with your nasty ass hiccups last night:)
Oh, that’s true!!! 😆 I do be sorry! Hic.
Breathtakingly gorgeous couple!
Dudette, it’s good to see you sister ((hugs))
Hiya GGail! Lovely to see you, my dear! {{{{{ GGail }}}}}
🙂
I know!! Hot tamales but they are incredible.
Great post Chips, thanks
A beautiful sight to wind up the day, GGoooooooooal!
Indeed GOOOAAL 😀
🙂
Ground control to Major Tom…
Take your protein pills LL, and put your helmet on.
😀
Bob, the papers want to know whose shirts you wear. Reveal all, please.
I weave my own 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀
😀
I’ll let the papers know, Bob! 😆 😆
Chips, “they” want to know if Bob uses Hemp thread?
Hemp is cool, but bamboo is absolutely the ONLY way I roll 🙂
http://provitrobio.com/
Urge all of you to support the proliferation of bamboo, everywhere!!
Good night TOD
Awesome Bob! Bamboo is very popular here in SoCal
😀 😀
CNN is reporting an officer has been shot in Ferguson, not fatal. This was bound to happen with the aggravation from the police there but so sad for protesters. Must admit I am losing any sympathy I ever had for cops.
So, LP & amk rushed through the door together to view the gorgeous photos Chips kindly posted. Singularity, achieved 🙂

Yes We Can
One of your best, Bob!
Bobfr, wish I could make your tweet go viral!
Thank you Jacqueline and Judith.
Am always humbled when the two of you are so supportive of my efforts to motivate others.
#FORWARD Together
Getting caught up after the day away. Thanks for these GREAT posts! Loved the Clooney one:-) It’s so great the way he’s stuck by PBO. And given his Hollywood status, really nice to see he chose a woman of substance. And as always PBO and FLOTUS are about the best couple out there. Michelle just always impresses with her taste.
Wait!…. There was a Clooney post? Okay, I’ve got some catching up to do! 😀
Oh Lord. There was much gnashing of teeth and rending of garments and wailing to the heavens.
LOL! I expect much of this was happening all over the globe today. 🙂
And that was just from the men realizing Amal was off the market.
Indeed! 😀
You’re welcome, FoxFireTX.
Toodle-doodiely! I’m heading to bed.
Night VC, sleep well!!
TYVM; I tried.
G’night Sweet VC! See ya tomorrow!
🙂 – with bells on my toes. TY
Not far behind you vc! Night you party hounds, some of us are wimping out embarrassingly early, but we admit to being rather weary! Big hugs all around! ❤ ( I shall be dreaming of FLOTUS' beautiful gown) 🙂
{{{{{ MightyPamela }}}}}
❤
I didn't dream though I did wimp out early. Hope your dreams were fun ones.
Nite vc
🙂 Night to you too (as you’re probably still sleeping).
#nocommittment.
#yougotmyshareIguess
Afternoon to you!
ask not what indians have done for you, ask what you have done for me lately?
Duty free. An Irish invention.
So then, what HAVE you done for me lately. 🙂
going to leave you in peace?
That’ll do for now. 🙂
I’m going to say good night, as well. Seems later than it is, but Its dark out, so it must be bedtime:)
Douce fleur Bonne nuit!
I’m buzzed, I’m fuzzed, get used to it. See y’all on the flip.
No driving while you’re buzzed and fuzzed, Buster! Stay safe and have a goodnight!
Oh, I only get buzzed at home. Bed is a few feet away.
Excellent Wise One! Rest well!
Mahalo Dudette! I just posted it on my FB. 😀
Hi Cha!
Isn’t it amazing? Wow, I could just stare at it all night!
Gorgeous! I saved it as inspiration for dyeing fiber:-) Thank you for sharing.
Happy to FF! 🙂
ta ta. off to home with daughter unit.
Hugs to you both!
1st
Your rightful place, my dear! 🙂
More Indian (Naeem Khan) contributions for all the haters……& I’m out
I love Naeem Khan’s dresses — every one a masterpiece. Knows how to dress a woman.
to think LL was trying to downplay Indian contributions 🙂
The dress! The dress!
OMG. Exquisite.
Gorgeous!
And now Col. Davis is an expert on SNL – love it. Well-rounded guy. 🙂
🙂
I got 9 out of 11 Correct. I feel really bad that one of my misses was the Democrat running for Senate in Texas. I am absolutely convinced that in 5-6 years, Texas will be a BLUE state.
A little more chill music.
Not sure why my last comment was sent to moderation. Forgive me oh great WordPress gods of censorship. I meant no harm. Just music, dude!
Wow!
More space stuff, cuz I gotta be me! 🙂
Neither the llama nor President Obama…
🙂
Good night everyone!
Hope you have a blissfully restful night, Dudette.
🙂
FACTS must PREVAIL …..
FACTS must PREVAIL …..
Thank you Mr. Bobfr for being here to help truth prevail.
I am so disgusted with MSM and people perpetrating themselves to be journalists.
I could not go back to sleep until I heard it from here.
TY!
Thank you LDS. Wishing you a restful night.
Thanks Bob!
And I read a tweet from CNN which says
“Suspect in shooting of Ferguson police officer is still at large, emergency agency spokesman says”
And the only thought that comes to mind is – the Suspect in the shooting of Mike Brown is also still at large.
Good night, Ms. Dudette!
I really missed you here…..so glad to know “It Is Well”.
Good night TOD ….
Troubling report about the Secret Service:
From the article:
“With the first couple gone, the Secret Service staff at the White House slipped into what some termed a “casual Friday” mode.”
and…
“President Obama has faced three times as many threats as his predecessors, according to people briefed on the Secret Service’s threat assessment.”
I am fed up with the @nytimes blatant racism. How many editors do they have (hundreds, no doubt)? There is NO EXCUSE for this home page headline on such a serious matter.
Sorry for shouting, but I am fuming now.
I’m late to this, but I had just finished catching up on the lazy, inexcusable portrayal of @ShondaRhimes last week.
