Re: The challenges ahead (Biden's America)

Exactly, Rose, exactly! And those of you who might still think Trump is religious, rather than just catering to the Christian Right to get votes... After the last election, Biden went to Mass on Sunday. Trump was playing golf at Mar-a-Lago. In interviews, Trump has shown zero knowledge of just how C...

Re: The challenges ahead (Biden's America)

And this time, we can't blame COVID for the drop!

Interesting it's mainly the southern 'redneck' states that have the largest percentage of diabetics! I would guess that poverty and poor diet have a lot to do with it.

Re: Good music and other good stuff on youtube and Facebook

I was a fan of The Monkees when I was in my teens. Every time I see a post about them on FB someone has to say they weren't a real band, didn't play their own instruments, yadda, yadda, yadda, totally ignoring the fact that two of them were already talented guitarists and songwriters before the four...

Re: Too late?

Today the Orlando Sentinel published a list of 673 books that have been banned from schools in Orange County. They include titles such as John Steinbeck’s “East of Eden,” John Milton’s “Paradise Lost,” Toni Morrison’s “Beloved” and Betty Smith’s “A Tree Grows in Brooklyn.” Others were part of high s...

Had to find another source for the animator's murder. That one kept blocking me. Sounds like the chocolate mogul was none too smart!

N.E. I assume your post above is referring to the missing binder of very sensitive Russian intelligence?

Re: Trump Indicted for Conspiring to Overturn the 2020 Election

Did Trump ever answer the question as to why he didn't tell the rioters to stop, until 3 hours had gone by? Was his only response "Yes, I agree with that."?

Re: Nature Pics

I did not take this picture, but it's what I saw yesterday while walking my dog at Base Borden. There was a pair of redtails soaring overhead in big circles, calling to one another, though it was a bit hard to hear their calls over the noise of traffic on the nearby road. Their call is a harsh, wild...

Re: Hamas' "50th Anniversary" Attack on Israel

I have often thought of Canada's problems with the FLQ in Quebec during the 1960's, in relation to the current crisis, though it's not a great parallel. After many bombings, mostly mailbox bombs, during the 1960s, the FLQ kidnapped two men, and murdered one of them, prompting Pierre Trudeau to invok...

Re: Hamas' "50th Anniversary" Attack on Israel

I think the only thing everyone in the world can agree on right now is that Netanyahu has to go. Preferably to jail. Technically, Hamas is the government. They got elected in 2006, and violently kicked out Fatah from Gaza in 2007 . I have no idea how day to day life gets managed, but Hamas leaders ...

The local Legion has a league for that sport (Corn hole.) There's also a darts league and, during warm months, people play horseshoes.

I have quite a few adult friends who play tennis, squash or pickle ball. Others have played pickup basketball, floor hockey etc. My niece's husband plays in an adult hockey league, as does the husband of a friend. He also plays flag football in the warmer months.

Re: Myers-Briggs, redux

I was amazed by this. I'm an INFP, a rare MBTI type.

This quiz nailed me with just 4 questions!

Sooo, now I'm curious to know if it works for other people!
