One was too reserved and the other was too licentious.

There are now diminishingly few people who remember that day directly. But it turns out that the phenomenon of a “flashbulb memory” is not that reliable, anyways.I was 3 years and 10 months old and I was on a tire swing by a country house after my parents car broke down and they called the nearest gas station and the attendance said JFK was dead. less

I would never want a condo in North Korea and I really don't know why he would rant about that at one of his rally's. But hopefully it is because he is planning on packing up his speedo swim suit and move to a condo in North Korea. Cheers

I found it very comforting because I could see that nobody was going to be punking or hurting our Grandkids when they get older. I guess it was also a bit of a comfort seeing the Grandkids enjoying themselves. Cheers!
