I worked in the L.A. office but had visited Lorraine and spent time with her and her husband at their home in San Diego and we became good friends. So I drove 50 miles to Laguna Beach from LA and her friend drove 50 miles from San Diego to Laguna Beach. At the time there was a restaurant there called the Victor Hugo Inn. We met and had an early dinner. It was strained and uncomfortable for both of us. We had nothing in common. We had chatted on the phone prior to the meeting and said we might get rooms at the Inn for the night and spend time the next day just walking around Laguna Beach and visiting the shops together. Well. We didn't. I drove back to L.A. after dinner and she drove back to San Diego. When our mutual friend Lorraine asked how it went I told her the truth. Gently. She said she couldn't figure out why we didn't hit it off. Well I ... less

So all lives don't matter...at least not equally. Maybe "All Lives Matter" is just another phony old saw that should be retired. Of what value is it since it is untrue?

The pizzagate dimwit who believed that the Comet Ping Pong pizzeria was the center of a child sex ring involving Hillary Clinton who went there to take a shot. Better they should have been armed with slingshots. The pizzagate guy said "I just wanted to do some good". That is Edgar Madison Welch . The gal, Lucy Richards? I dunno know what she thought. Both subscribed to Alex Jones conspiracy theory theories. less

Why did Trump choose him? Was the vetting incompetent/incomplete? If Puzder has flipped I haven't seen any indication of it . Has PET flipped?

We go to the expense of charging/trying but there is never any convicting of a cop. Maybe once there was but that was an anomaly/fluke. So how many millions of bucks do we waste knowing ahead of time what the conclusion will be? Who is fooling whom? Why bother pretending? Once you know it was the cop who did the killing just write it off to part of his job. Part of the chances citizens take if they happen to be the wrong color. Is it any better than lynching? I dunno. You'd have to ask those who have experienced what it's like to have relatives suffer those consequences. less

He says it won't take 2 days or 2 weeks. That means the plan has to be ready to implement immediately after the old one is repealed. Have you seen any of the details, time frame, coverage, cost? Neither have I. D'ya think they know what the he** they're doing?

The most surprising thing about baldness was how very cold my head was all the time. Even in summer. Very cold. Hair helps keep your body warm. This is such a good thing for breast cancer patients. I'm so happy for those who will benefit from it. Being bald isn't so bad. The hair grows back. But I'd druther have not lost it. You don't get to choose your d'ruthers when you get cancer but maybe one day folks will have lots of choices. Here's to that day! :) less

Are there any more out there like him on deck or is he the last one of his kind? A dedicated citizen, an astronaut, a politician who was in it to serve the people, not steal as much as he could get away with. So long, farewell, adieu, goodbye! :(

Then he hired Steven Mnuchin, ex-Goldman Sachs employee (Secretary of the Treasury) and now he plans to hire Gary Cohn,ex-Goldman Sachs employee to an influential White House post. Goldman Sachs stocks have risen 33% since PET was elected. How cozy is this? Doesn't everyone win? Is everybody happy? What's not to love?

Or was he told "no way Jose" and PET provided the lie as cover for Giuliani to save face? Which is more plausible?

After Putin invaded Crimea the US placed sanctions on Russia for its "incursion" forcing Exxon to scrap some projects it had going and it cost Exxon at least a $BILLION bucks in losses. We know PET is in bed with Putin and has been all along. Tillerson will make a cozy threesome. Feel better now that you know all about him?
