I am.They're my favorite group. This is my favorite song from them."Belfast Child"Among so many things I admire about the group, lead singer Kerr's voice sends me.

The more I discover about this symphony, the more I'm thankful I've heard it.If you have an just under an hour, consider listening. My recommendation is to listen in its entirety.
Bringing out the platter of roast turkey accidentally spill the whole works onto the floor.. or that happened to someone else?Thanksgiving, birthday party or any other celebration.

Ever since, anything I've read of hers strongly impacts me.My favorite Jackson novel:

There is nothing I don't like from these sisters. One of their songs:They were the very first all-female group to win a Grammy for "Best Country Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group" for their song "Fairytale."Yes. a country song by The Pointer Sisters. They wrote the song and performed it. And the musicians backing them up on the song - - wonderful, also, to me. If you haven't heard this, I hope you can listen from start to finish. And, yes, I know you still might like them or the song. :)And only if you listen all the way through - - the strings come soaring in quietly at the 3:45 - 3:52 section and it always sent chills down this young teenager's body when he (I) first had first heard this song. I still am drawn to that moment. :)
Thank you June, Anita, Ruth and Bonnie!!!EDIT: Should have used "Music" category -- not everyone in the world has Thanksgiving as a holiday. :) less

I think it ticked Trump off because it showed that Biden is not so paranoid that he could't trust his vice president. And it was a historic first. So I think Trump will chime in and say that Biden is weak because he had to have anesthesia or something crappy like that. Cheers!

So, 1) am I still a criminal? 2) Can I sue the government for false imprisonment? 3) Do I get my rights back? 4) Am I owed a public apology? 5) What do we do about the people who're STILL in jail for that same behavior?excon

And he has vowed that he will wear his Taekwondo clothing in Congress if he makes it back into the White House. I could see him getting a black belt in LieFoo but not Taekwondo. Maybe he will start teaching LieFoo - Grasshopper snatch the lie out of my hand. Cheers!
