I wouldn’t have thought I would like Brussel Sprouts, because i never liked the “collard greens”, “mustard greens” and such that my mother swore by, but found that I liked them…I suspect made a certain way; I am almost positive the way you made them would taste good to me.

I have no idea about audible. I have found myself unable to listen to a book. I find my mind leaves and goes elsewhere and then “wake up” and don’t remember anything that I heard. I will hope for your sake, it is, though.

Here is my review for what I consider one of the best books I have read in a long time. I gave it a 5 out of 5, which is very rare for me. I usually give 3 or 4, only occasionally giving a 2 if I really t […]

Prime Rib AND ham….wow. And I bet you had plenty of vegatables too. I had two bowls of Lentil Soup, french fries and the lamb skank…(that is what they call it, I don’t know someone asked me what that was, and the best I could do to explain to them was “a big piece of leg with the bone”…LOL)

Hey, the Turkey wants you to have a happy thanksgiving as do I. However, I am sure the turkey always would perfer you eat a hamburger, or a piece of chicken instead of him….give ’em a break if you […]

Hi Friend 😉
Happy Thanksgiving to you.
Like you….we are giving “Turkey” a break too. It’s Prime Rib here….. big enough to feed an army and there are only 4 of us. It may take some time…but it should be eaten up by Christmas. Ha! Oh…and a small ham.
You enjoy your day….. 🤗

Your meal sounds delicious. As for vegetables…..I made Brussel sprouts with a balsamic vinegar glaze and bacon. Not enough veggies I know…but I had limited space and time.

leftthoughts commented on the post, Please, let us keep the Democratic Republic alive. 1 week, 4 days ago
What has to be remember also,, is that most of the demogogues, are really not at war with the elite as they try to convince the rest of us that they are. Like trump, they usually come from the ranks of the rich and elite…or at least privileged, and use our anger against us to divide us against each other. That’s what trump did, for sure.

I would love to see the Green Party be ascendent. But right now we have to fight the “republican versus democrat” game. Maybe when more people wake up about the environment, the Green party will have its chance.

Actually, that is not a mistake in paragraph 3 although it might seem misleading if it is read a different way than I meant. Biden has suggested that all Americans need to come together and not consider each other enemies. The problem is that many of the trump supporters hate minorities and would do anything they could to deny us (and I include…[Read more]

Where have I been? This is the first I am hearing about this story. As you can tell…..I do live in my own little world..HA!
You made an Error up in Paragraph 3. It’s not Biden who is suggesting people should not fear the little boys….it was Trump.
As you know…I don’t care for Trump or Biden…..but I did vote for what I think is the lesser evil…..Biden.
But I could have been selfish and just let things be since Trump actually gave my household a BIG BIGLY HUGELY Tax cut and we didn’t even need one. My sons accountant called months ago and informed them of the new Tax information and we all just couldn’t stop laughing before we felt a bit sad for the working folks who actually believe he looks out for them. We laughed because it was just INSANE that people who need no tax cut….GOT A TAX CUT. But believe me….that BIGLY HUGELY tax cut we didn’t even want will just be given to charity.Cheers to Hawaii….my fellow Indigenous Brothers and Sisters 😉

Biden has suggested that all Americans need to come together and not consider each other enemies. The problem is that many of the trump supporters hate minorities and would do anything they could to deny us (and I include myself as a gay man as part of the minority) our civil rights and equality before the law.
In other words, Biden is suggesting being more “forgiving” than I am able or willing to be for the folks in the extreme right like the Proud Boys who are a threat to many of us. Sorry if my word choice confused you.
Now, I can’t remember who I voted for in the primary. I know I voted for Bernie in 2016. I am not sure who all was available at that time. I supported Elizabeth Warren and/or Bernie Sanders, although I leaned this time toward Elizabeth Warren. If Elizabeth and Bernie were eliminated before the primary, I probably voted for Biden because I didn’t like a couple of the others, and thought Biden had a better chance of winning. I voted for Hillary in the general election in 2016 for the same reason. I would NEVER have voted for trump…ever.
Now, I didn’t really get a tax cut as such, or not anything like I was “promised”. But I did get the 1200 stimulus, which I used to invest in alternative fuel industries….the entire thing was sent as a check to my business management with the stipulation to put the money in ART Investments which is all about innovative technology using alternative fuel sources. I figured that was a good way to use trump approved money to fight the trump agenda, which i have always seen as destructive to the environment as well as to the more needy people whose health care he is endangering.
-
Ok…..I get it now. Yes…being forgiving and understanding can be difficult for many people. I understand where you stand. LOVE the way you invested your stimulus.

Hi Friend 😉
I tried watching Monk a few years ago and honestly he just irritated me too much. Maybe I didn’t give him much of a chance? I don’t know…..but I just know my nerves would be on edge while watching. Ha!
