    If you’d like to invest 17 minutes of your time, this is a very interesting walking tour of a bridge/shopping area of Seoul. The proprietor of Wind Walk Travel walks throughout cities of the world using a Steadicam of some sort on his video camera. It must not be conspicuous since no one ever does a double-take or even much notices he is filming…and that goes for every vid I’ve seen of his. There’s no dialogue, just the background noise of the cities and the people walking by him. I’m sort of addicted to his channel.

    I’d never seen a travelogue on Seoul and this one shows huge modern buildings and prosperity abounding.

    According to worldpopulationreview.com, the population within Seoul’s city limits is estimated at 10.29 million as of 2017. The metropolitan area holds 25.6 million!

    GOP Tax Plan Recognizes Personhood of Unborn Babies /b>

      Amen.

      What is amazing is the law already recognizes an unborn baby as a person. Many people have been tried and convicted of a double homicide for having killed a pregnant woman. Scott Peterson was found guilty of first degree murder of his wife Lacey, and second-degree murder in the death of his unborn son Conner.

      So the simple truth is our law states that it is legal for a mother to have someone kill her own unborn baby (because the law strips the baby of his or her right to life and denies that he or she has personhood) but it is illegal for someone to kill that unborn baby without the mother’s permission because the law then endows personhood on the unborn baby.

      It is pretty hard to get more evil or convoluted than that illogical conundrum.

    My grandson is such a mess. He was helping with chores this morning, and he suddenly decided he was “too tired.” His PaPa told him he could rest after all the animals were fed and to quit being lazy. He says, “PaPa listen, I need to tell you somethin’.” His PaPa asks what he needs to tell him. He says, “I’ve been thinkin’ you have bigger legs than I do, so I’m not lazy PaPa I just have to walk farther than you ’cause I got little legs.” We both lost it. Then he says, “I just gonna rest a bit.” His PaPa tells him okay he can sit over there on that log and rest while he feeds the pigs. He sat down and start building a race track in the dirt with a stick. Of course that was what he was wanting all along to sit and play in the dirt.

    Later as we’re walking back to the house he says, “PaPa I’ve been thinkin’ ’cause my legs are little I better just feed the chickens so I won’t get so tired and worn out.”

    Then off he ran to the front yard, catching his second wind. lol

      My DIL goes running every day. She pushes a double stroller with her chocolate lab attached on one side. She posted pictures of my 2 yr old granddaughter running along the other side of the stroller with her. It was so cute. When my granddaughter got thirsty, she put her hand out and stopped the stroller and got a drink out her sports bottle. Then she went back to running.

      It was so cute. I have a feeling she will keep this up. She loves to run in the house until she can’t breathe.

        Yeah, ours can run circles around us and never tire out, when it’s something he’s wanting to do. lol

        Lately, he’s been “thinkin” too much.

        My SIL took a video of him when he took him hunting. He did good for about 15 minutes according to him. Then he pulled out his phone when he started saying, “you hear them deer yet Daddy?” Then he started thinkin’ if they made a lot of noise then the deer might come see what the noise was. Then he was thinkin’ it might be better to come another day because the deer were probably nappin’.

        He loved the idea of going hunting with Daddy, he just didn’t care for the reality you have to be still and quiet. lol

        I have no idea where all this thinkin has came from.

    Yesterday, I went to the cinema to see “Let There Be Light”. I really liked it! Other than a direction error that I noticed at the beginning, it was well made and so refreshing to see a really NICE film for a change. I boo-hooed through most of it, but I cry about Hallmark commercials, lol.

    If you get a chance to see it, it was entertaining, funny and had a good message for all. I hope Shaun Hannity makes more films of this nature, because I’ve been sick and tired of a lot that comes out of Hollyweird lately.

    The entertainment industry has been ruled by satanic sickos and deviants for too long. They either need to change, or we need to stop going to see these filthy movies that are trying to normalize evil.
    This was the 2nd movie I’ve seen in 5 years! I just don’t like to waste my money on subliminal mind control.

    I wonder if all his depraved apologists who bring up Presumption of Innocence, and Don’t Judge him until the Law does, felt the same way about George Zimmerman or Officer Wilson in Ferguson? Even after the Law did? No, they all STILL think Zimmerman and Wilson are murderous and guilty.

    All the talk about respect for the Law by these folks who support Spacey and Harvey, is a guise for protecting their “stars”, who can do no wrong. These same people KNEW Zimmerman and Wilson were guilty before there was even a trial. Such incredible hypocrites.

          • I voted for McCain. The MSM’s most beloved Republican: because he always voted with the Democrats, they called him the Maverick for years. Then, as soon as he pretended to run for President, the MSM pretended he was Hitler reincarnated. Then, soon after he lost after pretending with them, he’s their best friend again.

            When Romney pretended to run for President, I knew what was up, and didn’t vote that year. I’m not voting for a pretender. I was vindicated when his son said what I said the whole time, “My dad didn’t even want to win.” Well, NO DUH. Romney did everything he could to get Obama re-elected, short of putting an Obama/Biden bumper sticker on his podium. His son Tagg confirmed it in an interview with ABC News after the election was over. I had to bust out a few extra middle fingers from my stash, because I only have two, naturally.

            The GOPe can die in a fire. They are the pu&&y wing of the DNC.

            I proudly voted for Donald J. Trump.

The girl could not have been even 3 years old. I wanted to say “I’ll take her if you don’t want her.” We have lost so much 😦 .

  18. WordPress wants to force me to watch television, now. Can’t even scroll down and read a thread until a whole television advertisement fills my ears and eyeballs with bulls&&t. No, your scroll-wheel is useless.

    I thought I could avoid TV forever. Nope. Like Hillary, it will never go away.

    I want to throw things and break things, now. Soon we’ll be forced to watch television ads just walking down the sidewalk, beamed into our eyes somehow. “Hey, you walked past a store. You have to watch their television ad now. All of it. And you cannot keep walking until you watch the whole ad.”

    Guaranteed, they’re working on that one. I want to wake up and get out of bed in the morning. “Nope. You have to watch a 30-second high-volume television advertisement about not ever having babies, first. Then, and only then, can you swing your legs out of bed and get up. It’s for your own good.” Coming soon.

    The ads on Pandora, every other song now, are just that. “I should have waited to have a baby.” Targeted toward white folks, of course. While our replacements have babies when they are physically able and nobody castigates them for overpopulating the Earth. Nobody tells Arabs, Somalis, and Latinos in America that they should wait until they’re in their 30s, or that they should have fewer babies, or go into sexual lifestyles that produce no babies. Just us. We’re the bad ones, I guess, who should never reproduce.

    Now I can’t even read a thread here without being forced to watch and listen to that garbage, with each refresh.

    Where does it end?

    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.

    And, Lord, we pray for all the people who have been affected by the earthquakes and hurricanes.

    In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.
