Meh, pure luck.

Thank you so so so so so so so so so so so so so so much, Legend!!!!
You’re welcome, Chiparooooooooooooooooooo. 🙂
oh, ok, now I see the reason for panic run to #BLM, LGBT and keystone.
50 mil not registered to vote? I bet they are the first ones to b&m.
Chipsticks and all,
I have only posted once or twice here, but just want you to know that I love this place. I tell my friends it’s where I get to “stalk” the President and keep up with him all day! I check in off and on throughout the day…just hard to imagine that come January 2017 that he will no longer be in charge of this country and dragging it into the light!
Hey, Carole:) You need to chat with us more often! we’ll be in charge of this country…I’m not going backwards! It’s up to each and every one of us to participate in this democracy and make this place a more perfect union….we have seen the best of what is possible when people are determined and pull together for a common goal….there’s no going backwards. we all need to do our part to register voters and talk to people….you know the drill:)
Hi, Carole! Hope you post more often! ❤
Bonsoir Nerdy!
album version is much. much better.
Oh yeah totally agree but then we can’t watch Eddie Vedder sing it. 🙂
eddie hoo? #sostuck(up)ineightiesbritrock.
Oh yeah. #amkwho?

Wife: “Aw, thank you, but what about IJK?”
Husband: “I’m just kidding!”
and I am outta here.
So bad. So, so bad:)

I just watched a clip of PBO in the HBO doc VICE. He was talking to the guys in prison. Tears flowed from my heart and eyes.
I. LOVE.THIS.MAN. What a great human being.
Thanks for the tweets. As usual, your tweets are on point and informative. TOD is such a valuable resource.
Totally agree. Thank you, NerdyWonka and good evening, rikyrah!
🙂
Thanks, Rikyrah.
Thanks NW!!
🙂
Very nice.
G’night people. FTR I won’t be around during the day tomorrow and Thursday as I have to work. Will look in in the evening to see how the pope’s day went.
I’m in the same boat as you vc – however, I will sneak a peak here and there whenever I get a chance. And of course, once I’m home I will feast myself on all the wonderful pics, videos, tweets, etc TOD!! 🙂 🙂
G’nite, vc Sleep tite. Don’t let pizza rat bite!
pizza rat? /shrug/
Sweet dreams, yourself, Hopef.
Evening folks!
Meta posted this earlier:
…I saw this in my TL as well
I went to go see what she’s been sharing on Twitter lately. Lo and behold, I see my humble little tweet at the top of her TL! She retweeted me!
Welp! My day, week, month, year has been made! Squeeeeeeeeeeeee! I can go to sleep now! 😀
Congratulations, dudette!! She is so stunningly beautiful at any age.
Good Night/Morning/Day Everyone! Happy Autumnal Equinox! 😀
Morning Dudette, can’t believe fall is here! 🙂
Methinks donnadem is somewhere in that crowd! 🙂
Nope! I couldn’t get tickets for today. 😦 I’ll be at the Capitol tomorrow.
Oh okay. Sorry you were unable to get tx for today, I guess the demand must have been off the charts! But the good news is that you get to see him tomorrow at the Capitol! What an experience…can’t wait to hear your report. 🙂
It must be really insane down there right now! Really looking forward to hearing what POTUS and the Pope have to say.
No tickets for the parade route but people had to get there early, too. This is wild!
DC is a traffic nightmare but the Federal Gov’t is letting their workers telecommute this week. A lot of my friends take public transportation into work daily and they said the subway looked like inauguration morning with so many people taking the train downtown today. They say 15K will be at the WH but we have no idea how many thousands are going to the parade.
WOW. This will be something for the history books. I’m so excited for you tomorrow. 50,000 people are expected at your event!! Did you see this?
Oh my. I hadn’t seen this. I’m getting excited!!!
Some of these people must’ve not slept at all last night! 🙂
Just had a passing glimpse of sanders with some teann asshole. The asshole wanted to know why sanders, assuming he, (the ah, not sanders), is rich is making him (again the ah) uncomfortable and wanting to take his (the ah’s) wealth and and redistribute it. Sanders was blabbering about wealth inequality ratio and all that nonsense. Instead of coming right out and asking the ah, why the ah wants to pretend to be rich and why he does not want to pretend to be a middle class or even poor american and ask questions from their perspective.
Good morning, Chips, NW and TODville! Another thrilling day with President Obama.
Who’s got the coffee brewing?!
Mooooooooorning!
