Thank you. Just came back. I have been saving your pictures so I can post them at appropriate times on my FB page. I appreciate all you guys do here. (((hugs))) to TOD friends.
Thanks Chips for putting all the clips of the President when he was on Jimmy Kimmels show Thursday night in one post. I finally got a chance to watch it.
I’m so grateful for all the work Chips and Nerdy do. I know if there is an event or speech by President Obama, or from someone in this administration, they will have it here and I don’t have to worry if I miss it.
The thing is, how did this guy get voted in in the first place? People could avoid these negative consequences if they actually turned out to vote these criminals out. I’m glad they’re taking action now, but time and again, we see people refuse to learn the lesson of voting for your own well-being. Look at Wisconsin and that Scott fellow, who now thinks he can run for President!
A good friend of mind’s daughter is a manager in the Peace Corps and just left Vanuatu about a week and a half ago. On her FB page she’s getting reports that it’s catastrophic.
Hello everyone 🙂 I’ve missed you all so much, my computer went the way of the dinosaur two weeks ago.. but yay finally back ! Sooo good to be here 🙂 I hope everyone is doing well.
GE, Tnmtngirl! ……..I assume you’re a big fan of Rocky Top? ….I like Josh, he would fit perfectly in Gus Malzahn’s offense at my alum Auburn. I couldn’t figure out what Butch Jones was doing not starting him from the beginning of the season… considering how well he played his Freshman year….good thing for him the starting QB got hurt and Josh got to excel again, but I can pull for the Vols only so much….they are stealing a lot of monster recruits from us!!!
Yes, of course I am a Rocky Top fan!! 😄 I’ve been a Josh Dobbs fan since he came here. Don’t like when any player is injured BUT was SO glad when Butch put Josh in. Sure hope he doesn’t get injured. Believe he has a bright future. Butch is building a future here–brick by brick!!!😄😄😄😄. I tend to root for Auburn except when an opponent.
scooch over then…could be something important! I have company coming for dinner tonight and to see the new “baby”…won’t be here for a while, but I’ll check in later as I can. I smell something in the air….
TONITE FOX IS MAKING ISSUE WITH ALLEGED FINANCIAL SUPPORT FROM OBAMA PEOPLE TO HERZOG’S ELECTION IN ISRAEL…THEY’LL PUSH THAT ONE…THAT’S THE SECOND TIME I’VE HEARD IT………….
Israeli elections are this coming Tuesday, on March 17th – St. Patrick’s Day! Is Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu in danger? Israeli politics is remarkably rococo in its complexity, but let’s take a look at the data, then sketch out some scenarios. Bottom line, I think Netanyahu has about a 3-1 chance of being ousted as Prime Minister.
That happens occasionally to several sites Sabreen, it’s some glitchy thing again, don’t worry about it – I even got it for the Time site the other day.
I am not sure…..but what is going on in Russia…..the Missing/Disappearing/Unaccounted Sighting of Putin is interesting……but not peculiar in my mind.
A handful of Russian past Leaders have met disastrous ends/ending in the month of March.
Russians….especially some powerful Russians might have had enough of Putin irrespective “Poll Numbers” indicating 85% Fav of Putin.
The fishing trip seems to have been a typical Bush event – had to get the SS to get the anchor up during the trial run – and despite the day out and Putin catching a fish – the formal talks were nothing to write home about.
i suspect the real reason for their meetings, and what was really talked about has not been made public. i try not to be paranoid in general, but this group of friends are actual sociopaths, in the true meaning of the word, and i wouldn’t doubt they’re planning some new form of destruction to benefit themselves somehow. i mean look what pootie is doing with ukraine, and how came out of retirement to take over again from medyedev, who was being all friendly with president obama. pootie and bushes and cheney couldn’t have that, so sure enough here comes pootie again out of the woodwork!
Chips, top photo! PBO + those shades! And the whole optics, the plane, the salute, the etc. Another great photo!
OT: I’m still catching up on all the posts. But do you think PBO knew about the author of that article on his road to Selma w/ PBO? The blogger who wanted to be on his team in 2008 & joined him on the journey to Selma. It seems so like something PBO would do. Found out about him & gave him the best interview + a ride on AF1++. Bet the lazy WHPC were sour lemons!
Perhaps also associated with elections in Israel and this …
“Nuclear talks between Iran and the P5+1 (China, France, Germany, Russia, the United Kingdom and the United States) are entering the final days before the end-of-March target date for reaching a framework agreement.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry will meet with Iranian Foreign Minster Mohammad Javad Zarif on Sunday, March 15 in Lusanne, Switzerland. The following day, Zarif will meet with EU foreign policy chief Frederica Mogherini in Brussels. Also present at that meeting will be British Foreign Secretary Phillip Hammond, French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius, and German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier.
Political directors for the P5+1 and Iran are expected to remain in Switzerland for the week to continue closing the gaps on a framework agreement.”
Gov Martin O’Malley is on C-SPAN (Brookings) on a show they’re calling “Road to the White House”. Hello! He’s actually becoming easy in his skin! I can actually see O’Malley running w/ our VP-Joe as VP candidate. 🙂
I HOPE SCOTT WALKER IS IN THE KITCHEN IN A HIGHCHAIR WHERE HE BELONGS…I WONDER WHO PBO WILL SIT WITH…JUST A FORK AWAY FROM FILL IN THE BLANKS…PERSONALLY…I WOULD THROW THE BRUSSEL SPROUTS FIRST…THOSE COULD BE PAINFUL IF NOT OVERLY COOKED…IF THINGS REALLY GET OUT OF HAND…JAM BAM A SHEPHERD’S PIE…THIS WAY THE OPPONENT RECEIVES A VARIETY OF BON APPETIT ALL AT ONCE!
TOMORROW I SHALL BE PASSING THROUGH PEWS WITH RIGHT WINGERS WHO ARE SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO DISGUSTED WITH ME RIGHT NOW…HAVING POUNDED THEM WITH CONTINUOUS #47 FILL IN THE BLANKS TO THE FILL IN THE BLANKS! USE YOUR IMAGINATION…I’M TAKING EXTRA SPIT WITH ME!
I FILED A COMPLAINT AGAINST MY NEIGHBOR FOR BEING CRUEL TO HER DOG…SO I COME HOME TODAY AND THERE IS A SIGN IN HER YARD THAT READS…”SUE…NO TRESPASSING!” NOW WHAT’S FUNNY ABOUT THAT IS I DON’T GO NEAR HER PROPERTY…FIFTH FLOOR REGISTRANT THERE……..AND OF COURSE…SHE STILL HAS THE DARNED DOG…THEY’RE ALL RELATED HERE…IT’S A FAMILY REUNION OF LOUD MUFFERS AND TOBACCO SPIT!…OH LORD HELP ME KEEP MY SANITY. I THINK I’LL JUST GIVE UP AND GROW A BEARD!
“”For millions of Soviet people, televised performance of the world-renowned ballet ‘Swan Lake’ always signaled a change in the country’s leadership — either the death of the Secretary-General, or his ouster as a result of a coup,” regional lawmaker Oleksiy Honcharenko said when introducing the performance in front of Ukrainian television cameras.
“Because Vladimir Putin has made a fatal mistake by unleashing aggression against Ukraine, today Odessa, as a cultural capital, performs for him this portentous composition,” he said in footage that aired on Ukrainian television and was posted online Wednesday.
The four ballerinas then proceeded with the pas de quatre from “Dance of the Little Swans.””
Did we leave everyone behind?
Roberta, it’s just a few of us and President Obama–what could be better?
I know, he is stupendous. Andthank you for joing me. Now I am back joining the rest of the crew.
⭐
Roberta,
This is for you.
Thank you. Just came back. I have been saving your pictures so I can post them at appropriate times on my FB page. I appreciate all you guys do here. (((hugs))) to TOD friends.
Congrats on first Roberta!
Thanks Betsy. GA.
I was just there, seems to be working. Hi everyone. Going to go read Stonekettle & then watch the red carpet for the Gridiron.
Oh those gremlins! What have I missed?
You know, I think my brothers’ band was.The Gremlins… I’ll check.
Au ⭐ for Fellow Minnesotan, Roberta in MN 😉
Congrats.
Thanks. Nice weather today.
Good afternoon/evening, TOD!
Thanks Chips for putting all the clips of the President when he was on Jimmy Kimmels show Thursday night in one post. I finally got a chance to watch it.
I second that, SJT. I didn’t have a chance to watch the show live but did, thanks to Chips.
I’m so grateful for all the work Chips and Nerdy do. I know if there is an event or speech by President Obama, or from someone in this administration, they will have it here and I don’t have to worry if I miss it.
A pleasure {{{{{{sjterrid}}}}}}} 🙂
Endless Thanks,{{{{Chips}}}}!
A nice photo of the earlier days.

HEADS UP TOD ….
You saw it on TOD, first …..
Putin remains unseen in, now, more than a week ……..
Well, I guess the BBC saying the Putin is alive/in control was wishful thinking.
Afternoon all.
Someone is playing …. not sure who …
The picture of the APCs was 3 hrs ago. He hasn’t posted anything else like it since.
Yep!
Vicki, Don, & JackieG – no credible information at this time.
BTW, have no idea when the video was filmed or when the photos were actually taken.
With crude potentially going to $40/barrel or less in the next few days it’s going to get really hot in the Kremlin, for sure ….
What is credible is are reports that Russia is now amassing troops on the Ukrainian border.
Does this have anything to do with the reported absence of Putin this past week?
WTF!!! Was there a coup?
Bob, have you heard any speculation about what this could mean? Is the whole story about Putin going to Italy for the birth of his ‘love child’ a lie?
Holy s – – -, Bob!
Wow only 65 members in the gridiron club…i wonder what it takes to be a member
had to laugh when I read that Bibi blamed his flagging poll numbers on a vast left wing conspiracy.
He had a few words with the GOP while in DC – they told him what to say to account for loss in support.
Hello everyone 🙂 I’ve missed you all so much, my computer went the way of the dinosaur two weeks ago.. but yay finally back ! Sooo good to be here 🙂 I hope everyone is doing well.
Greeeeeeeeeeeeeat to have you home sherijr!!!! 🙂
omg it is so good to be HOME, thank you Chips, I’ve missed you! Tried getting my news from the teevee these past weeks and nearly lost my mind 😉
Glad you are back. Hate, hate computer issues.
Lp, if youi see this, thanks for sharing the video of Josh Dobbs Pi-day challenge. 🙂
thank you tn, I agree they are the worst.. my laptop is no more, so had to save for another refurbished.. but feel I got a good deal.
GE, Tnmtngirl! ……..I assume you’re a big fan of Rocky Top? ….I like Josh, he would fit perfectly in Gus Malzahn’s offense at my alum Auburn. I couldn’t figure out what Butch Jones was doing not starting him from the beginning of the season… considering how well he played his Freshman year….good thing for him the starting QB got hurt and Josh got to excel again, but I can pull for the Vols only so much….they are stealing a lot of monster recruits from us!!!

I pull for Tenn since they are in the SEC East….especially against Georgia, Florida & their permanent crossover in the new SEC schedule BAMA!
Welcome home, sheri 🙂
ohh thank you so much Bob, it is so nice 🙂
New computer, yeh! Hi Sherijr. I missed reading your comments.
thank you elo, that is so lovely of you.. really glad to see all of you again 🙂
❤

Just checked in and I’m all confused about the Moscow thing…
You’re in the company of millions, df!! Welcome 🙂
scooch over then…could be something important! I have company coming for dinner tonight and to see the new “baby”…won’t be here for a while, but I’ll check in later as I can. I smell something in the air….
BTW, I sorta agree with him ….
🙂
I’d read a tweet somewhere on TOD that he’d had a hear attack. Has that totally been ruled out?
It’s all ‘noise,’ no signal, elo ….
My exact thought – was just discussing it with Mr 99 – and then read your post
ONE VERY QUICK AND CURABLE ANSWER TO THAT….DRAFT………………………THEY’LL SHUT UP QUICKLY!
VP Biden, front and center ….
OT
More OT.
TONITE FOX IS MAKING ISSUE WITH ALLEGED FINANCIAL SUPPORT FROM OBAMA PEOPLE TO HERZOG’S ELECTION IN ISRAEL…THEY’LL PUSH THAT ONE…THAT’S THE SECOND TIME I’VE HEARD IT………….

Gawd! I so want him out! Period.
I sincerely……can not wait….
Tuesday….by 1:00 PM EDT……all will be known.
I’m getting a message that this is not a secure connection and everything is out of kilter.
That happens occasionally to several sites Sabreen, it’s some glitchy thing again, don’t worry about it – I even got it for the Time site the other day.
That’s what you get for having Danny as your IT guy. 🙄

they should send super sleuth ed snowjob to find him! sounds like he has a lot time on his hands…
And with that, time for a cocktail!

“Where is Vladimir Putin? What we know about the Russian president’s “disappearance.””

So far, my favorite ….

maybe pootie poot and his “good friends” the bush family are on vacation looking into each other’s souls:

more than likely hanging out with scott walker who is also hiding.
Everything, everywhere is always in better form while PBO is President. 🙂
Chips, top photo! PBO + those shades! And the whole optics, the plane, the salute, the etc. Another great photo!
OT: I’m still catching up on all the posts. But do you think PBO knew about the author of that article on his road to Selma w/ PBO? The blogger who wanted to be on his team in 2008 & joined him on the journey to Selma. It seems so like something PBO would do. Found out about him & gave him the best interview + a ride on AF1++. Bet the lazy WHPC were sour lemons!
Wonder if any of the SA sponsors of #DAESH have decided to fund a bomber or two on the home turf ….

Gov Martin O’Malley is on C-SPAN (Brookings) on a show they’re calling “Road to the White House”. Hello! He’s actually becoming easy in his skin! I can actually see O’Malley running w/ our VP-Joe as VP candidate. 🙂
I’d be for that, as long as Martin can bring the right message along!
Is Count Von Knoller there?
Oh YUM! To everything! Liquid & grub.
Except Grover Cleveland ….
GWB went six times – guess he thought humor was his expertise – probably better at that than presidenting.
I HOPE SCOTT WALKER IS IN THE KITCHEN IN A HIGHCHAIR WHERE HE BELONGS…I WONDER WHO PBO WILL SIT WITH…JUST A FORK AWAY FROM FILL IN THE BLANKS…PERSONALLY…I WOULD THROW THE BRUSSEL SPROUTS FIRST…THOSE COULD BE PAINFUL IF NOT OVERLY COOKED…IF THINGS REALLY GET OUT OF HAND…JAM BAM A SHEPHERD’S PIE…THIS WAY THE OPPONENT RECEIVES A VARIETY OF BON APPETIT ALL AT ONCE!
Wondering if CNN will be searching for Putin with the intensity that they searched for MH370
LOL! Then that anchor would have to “wonder” if Putin was abducted by an alien horse! 🙂
😀 😀
🙂 🙂
Oh snap, Doc Bob! There he is! That turd their shoes are about to step on! 🙂
TOMORROW I SHALL BE PASSING THROUGH PEWS WITH RIGHT WINGERS WHO ARE SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO DISGUSTED WITH ME RIGHT NOW…HAVING POUNDED THEM WITH CONTINUOUS #47 FILL IN THE BLANKS TO THE FILL IN THE BLANKS! USE YOUR IMAGINATION…I’M TAKING EXTRA SPIT WITH ME!
🙂
I enjoy France’s current Ambassador the US …
btw, I know Ambassador Power agrees with that sentiment 🙂
I FILED A COMPLAINT AGAINST MY NEIGHBOR FOR BEING CRUEL TO HER DOG…SO I COME HOME TODAY AND THERE IS A SIGN IN HER YARD THAT READS…”SUE…NO TRESPASSING!” NOW WHAT’S FUNNY ABOUT THAT IS I DON’T GO NEAR HER PROPERTY…FIFTH FLOOR REGISTRANT THERE……..AND OF COURSE…SHE STILL HAS THE DARNED DOG…THEY’RE ALL RELATED HERE…IT’S A FAMILY REUNION OF LOUD MUFFERS AND TOBACCO SPIT!…OH LORD HELP ME KEEP MY SANITY.

THAT’S MUFFLERS AND IF YOU DON’T HAVE A PICK UP YOU ARE A VEHICLE RACIST!
Very, very, very clever ….
One’s cheek should hurt from how hard the tongue is pressed into it …. on this one …..
Don’t expect any of you to remember this (from May of last year) so wanted to share it again ….
