Hola, sister Dudette! 😀
Heyyyy! 😀
Heyyyy, yourself! How’s the family – momma, poppa, sis and nephie?
They’re all doing good. Thanks for asking. Sis & nephew leaving for Europe in a few days. I’m so jealous.
Maybe they’ll bring you back a (lousy) t-shirt. 😀 😀 😀
Or at least a refrigerator magnet or two.
I’m sure they will surprise you. 😀
Yes, with albums full of pictures of them having fun in beautiful places. Oh da cruelty of it all!
You poor thing! The whimpering is good. 😀
Think of the ‘peace and quiet’ you’ll have while they’re away though – there’s usually a silver lining to these things.
Noooo! I’m gonna miss my little buddy terribly. I’m gonna be singing this all summer.
You are too much! That singing sounds like what I think mine sounds like – PAINful. BTW, are they gone for the whole summer? If yes, maybe you’d better come visit me so that I can keep you company. 😀
Aw! You’re sweet, but the way my durned car and broken down house have been draining $$$ out of my, my butt’s gonna sitting on the couch for quite a while. 🙂
Well thank you UK PM.
Congrats and GM amk 🙂
bbl …
The story of my life. I was posting on the last thread. Always behind, when am I ever gonna catch up?
Aw! There, there now {{{ missp }}}Welcome to the club, darling!
Here’s your pin. [snap!] Your photo will be in the yearbook along with the rest of us slowpokes! 😀
Looks like she’s hurrying, doesn’t she?
That looks like me for sure. Moving slowly trying to catch up with everyone miles ahead of me.
Welcome to the turtle family, MissP! Chips was always flashing one of those pics my way until she stumbled upon a more creepy choice.
Congrats Amk on your FURST Au ⭐
Goooooooooooooooooooooal for USA. They beat NIG and are now leading in their division.
So awful!
🙂
His first tweet, meta 🙂
Kewl!!
I heard today that all Cablers covered Trump.
He was also quickly interviewed by George S., Billo O’Rielly, etc.
Isn’t it twisted that these same DC/NY Pundits were mocking Trump on Twitter while major National News Papers, Nightly News and just about every Website quickly did top pieces or had their pages with links and stories of Trump.
In_deed, USA has a worthless New Media Apparatus.
The Palestinian unity government will resign, President Mahmoud Abbas has announced.
He told his Fatah faction the cabinet had to be dissolved because its Hamas rivals would not allow it to operate in Gaza, where Hamas is in control.
Some reports suggest that the government would step down within hours.
The cabinet was sworn in last June to try to end a major rift between Fatah, which governs the West Bank, and Hamas.

Well said.
amk is the furst. amk is the furst.
Please…. PLEASE do not emulate Donald (look at me) Trump. It’s not a good look!
rafa = ∩
😦 Dang!
byeee.
Guess it’s close to midnight for most of TODville, but posting any way.
Little Ella looks JUST like her dad:)
So true!
Wonder what @PressSec’s daughter looks like? Maybe she’ll be this year’s star at tomorrow’s Congressional picnic!

And this…
Daily News, the only one with any dam sense. The media shouldn’t be paying that racists jackass known as Donald Trump any attention. But yet they are.
Cracks me up that the front page says “Rips Bam, Hil, Jeb…”
LOL! Priceless!
Oh dear:)

Good read….wish everyone knew this!
Crazy with no moral compass. I retweeted it.
This is the worst officiated NBA Finals I’ve witnessed in my time on earth. The NBA should be ashamed of themselves…congrats Warriors…Lebron gave it a valiant effort, but he was playing 1 against 6 the entire series.
I’m happy the Warriors won but what do you mean about the NBA refs?
The officiating was god awful. I’ve never seen so many missed calls or reversals due to originally making the wrong call and the inconsistency from one game to another was ridiculous. These are the Finals…supposed to be the premiere officials in the entire league and I’ve seen better officiating from my AAU days back in high school. Just an unacceptable the level of gross incompetence demonstrated throughout.
It was a one man show from the beginning….
Yes, Whiteplains I agree with you. Lebron often seemed like a team 1. Totally not okay.
Forgive me Lovelyplains for messing up your handle.
LeBron gave it his all. He ended the game with honor, like a gentleman.
As long as Kevin Love opts back in for a 1-yr contract:
Mark Halperin isn’t worth B.S., come on do we really expect Halperin to act like her has any class? This is the thing that call the President that name. How about giving Mark Halperin a F-. He isn’t worth that stinking smelly B.S.
OK, congrats again GS! …..good night, TOD.
If you were not going to give it to Lebron, then Iggy was the correct choice:
With Love and Irving the Cavs would have been a better tougher team.
That’s absolutely true
G.O.A.T……….ok, definitely good night:
Just returned from watching the game at a sports bar. Seriously. I am over the moon! The best team in the world vs. the best player in the world and the best team won! It’s been a long drought, but it’s over now! Congratulations Warriors! Dub Nation!
Crazy great series!!!!
Me and hubby are sitting in front of wide screen and enjoying the Warriors’ celebration. Love love the Warriors
Excuse the crazy video – this is the only version of this glorious song I can find!
My tribute to the Statue of Liberty – “A mighty woman with a torch” – is done for the night with this! A tribute to a different time, for sure. Goodnight, TODville.
Excerpt from an article about the 125th anniversary of the gift:
“Barry Moreno, a historian of the statue for the National Park Service, recalled that it ‘was never built for immigrants. It was,’ he recalled, ‘built to pay tribute to the United States of America, the Declaration of Independence, American democracy, and democracy throughout the world. It honored the end of slavery, honored the end of all sorts of tyranny and also friendship between France and America.’”

***
“The New Colossus” is a sonnet by American poet Emma Lazarus (1849–1887), written in 1883. In 1903, the poem was engraved on a bronze plaque and mounted inside the lower level of the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty.
Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
“Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she
With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_New_Colossus
Excited that Warriors won after 40 years. Unlike Cavaliers, it was a team effort. Giants and Warriors. Bay Area celebrates.
YES!
Congratulation to the Warriors. Maybe when the Cavs are healthy they might have a better shot to win.
Lebron just could not do it all by himself. Remind me of the days when Michael Jordon had to try to do it all by himself, when he got some help no one could stop the Bulls.
i thought that same thing,,,bella
Posted on FB on Official page of the British Monarchy.
Prince Harry was very pleased to host The First Lady of the United States Mrs Michelle Obama for tea at Kensington Palace this morning. They discussed their shared interest in support for veterans and their families. His Royal Highness was also interested to hear from the First Lady about the #LetGirlsLearn initiative to further adolescent girls’ education around the world, which is the focus of her visit to the UK.
Prince Harry was also delighted to meet Malia and Sasha Obama and The First Lady’s mother Mrs Marian Robinson. Prince William and Harry are also promoting education.
Mooooooooorning!
