    Is Puddy still posting next door? Ad Rem is one thing I really miss about that place.

    I posted a barn birthday cake and wished it had a mailbox, and she came through in minutes.

    I thought about this because I thought it would be neat to rearrange the heads with Photonshop every day. Funny as heck, that would be.

      what is the deal with males and hairy faces now? when did having a stubble face become all “macho” looking and OK for formal appearances? same time that neckties became symbols of male domination meme? I used to read that males with beards had some sort of sexual repression issue of a freudian nature or something. just me, but there was a time when corporate board of directors pictures had NOBODY with face hair, all with short haircuts, wearing white shirts with neckties and dark suits…all symbolic of power and intellectual success.

      I think men became BETA through feminist beatdown and the gay and lesbian advertising motif portrayals.

        Czarina here – who said men in the 70’s didn’t have beards, moustaches & drive Harley’s? Maybe those in the NYSE or at IBM, but both my husbands, friends husbands & all my male friends had facial hair. Czar had a full beard & excellent handlebar mustache when I met him. And BTW the slightly unshaven look came with “Miami Vice” initially, then seems to be coming around again, just like platform shoes, mutton-chop sideburns & shoulder pads. People get tired of looking at one style of things, some copy something they see, it catches attention & the next thing you know hip huggers of the late 1960’s are back except with the back waistband so low it shows (well, way more than I wanted to see)…. & instead of bell bottoms they are tapered to the ankles (also not in pink & orange paisley). Actually, my favorite recent style was the 80’s copy of the 40’s (see the movie “Working Girl”).

    President Trump visited Rep. Steve Scalise Wednesday night at MedStar Washington Hospital Center, where the GOP whip remained in critical condition.

    Trump arrived with the first lady and brought flowers. They remained inside the hospital about 30 minutes.

    Members of the Trump family had gathered earlier in the evening at the White House to celebrate the president’s birthday.

    Hospital officials said Wednesday night that Scalise’s condition remained critical. A single rifle shot had traveled from his left hip across his pelvis, fracturing bones, injuring organs, and causing bleeding, the hospital said.

    He underwent surgery immediately upon arriving at the hospital, then later an additional procedure to stop bleeding, the hospital said.

    In spite of the procedures, Scalise will require additional operations, the hospital said.

    Trump later tweeted that Scalise is in “tough shape” and asked his followers to pray for the representative.

    Shooting of Republican congressmen was a long time in the making

    http://legalinsurrection.com/2017/06/shooting-of-republican-congressmen-was-a-long-time-in-the-making/

    In trying to make sense of what happened today, I kept coming back to a radio interview talk show host Michael Koolidge had with our friend Rebel Pundit (Jeremy Segal) which we posted on May 24, 2016, after Jeremy was arrested for filming an anti-Milo riot at DePaul Univesrity in Chicago, #FreeRebelPundit – arrested while filming leftist riot DePaul U. appearance.

    Jeremy knows the radical left better than anyone I know. He has produced many videos of leftist riots, including the riots that led to canceling Donald Trump’s campaign event in Chicago in March 2016

    I’ve remembered Jeremy’s words every time I see the campus shout-downs, Antifa beat downs, and other assorted riots.

    And I thought of those words the moment I heard of the Scalise shooting:

    ” While people are out, running around, scared about the things Donald Trump is saying, there is an army of radical, militant youth being built in this country that lives in an absolutely alternative dimension and a different reality. Their entire world view is completely different and completely antithetical to the traditional American world view. And they are getting closer and closer to the point that they will be ready to fight. I don’t know when that’s going to be, but it’s coming and it’s very ugly.”

    James T. Hodgkinson may not have been young, but he was infected with that same willingness to fight as Antifa and other anti-Trump leftists who riot. By all evidence, Hodgkinson was driven by an apocalyptic view of Trump’s election.

    The window for violence has been moved from the radical fringes to the mere left. It’s much bigger than the incitement. And it’s been a long time in the making.

    Still wandering the world.

    SecDef has been saying we are not winning in Afghanistan. Monday, read more dire news from retired Indian diplomat guy, with a touch of hope
    “The US Defence Secretary Gen. Mattis also clarified at a Congressional hearing on Monday: “We are taking a regional approach to this. We will take that forward to the president for a decision very soon.”

    “This is the clearest indication so far that the Trump administration is not exactly contemplating another blood-soaked chapter in the Afghan war. The emphasis on the “regional approach” shows a tilt toward resumption of peace talks.”

    “U.S. military strategy would now focus more narrowly on the irreconcilable elements within the Taliban and on the small ISIS presence in the country. This concentrated mandate should be welcomed by U.S. military”
    http://blogs.rediff.com/mkbhadrakumar/2017/06/13/what-is-there-for-india-in-regional-approach-to-afghan-problem/

    Today, more hope?
    “Something must give way and something else, entirely new, has to emerge. The National Unity Government experiment has run its course.”

    “What is under way is a momentous consolidation of the Ghilzai Pashtun confederation of tribes.”

    “Today, Gulbuddin’s very presence in Kabul makes a realignment of forces inevitable in Afghan politics. Unsurprisingly, the Tajiks suspect that Gulbuddin enjoys tacit American backing.”
    http://blogs.rediff.com/mkbhadrakumar/2017/06/15/a-tumultuous-power-struggle-erupts-in-kabul/

    Perhaps not. And yet, this has been the position of Our POTUS from day 1, has it not?

    Wonder what would have happened if Oswald had had an AK47 in Dallas on Nov 22, 1963? Might have taken out LBJ, John Connelly, Mayor of Dallas, half the KKK members on the street, some flaky policemen at the time, the SS detail, and put major hurt on a beautiful Lincon Stretch Convertible Limo……heck….the got the deal done with only 3 bullets on a bolt action rifle sitting in a window sill.

    They just don’t make assassins like the CIA and FBI used to hire them in the 1960s

    lilbirdee12’s prayer:

    Our Heavenly Father, Your children come to you tonight to ask for healing and peace throughout our country so that we may return to being One Nation Under God. Guide us to be leaders in Your Kingdom, spreading Your Love and Salvation to all. Forgive us our sins and deliver us from evil.

    Lord, we ask for a blanket of protection over all our troops and law enforcement who serve to defend and protect us. Bless our representatives with the strength and wisdom they need to achieve the path You have chosen for us.

    Please place Your Guardian Angels of Protection around Donald Trump and Mike Pence and their families as they seek to lead America back to You.

    Grant us patience, Lord, as the evil ones try to anger us and cause us to fall.
    Spread blessings over Israel and Netanyahu.

    We humbly ask that You please comfort those who are grieving and in pain.
    Thank you Father, for Your Love and the gift of Life.

    In Jesus name, we pray. Amen
