    Stella, that photo presents an amazing community. Aleutian Islands?

    So many of those tiny communities in/around Alaska have an existence all their own – forced to be so independent and yet so vulnerable.

    At least they have a soccer field – (if that’s what that is, I’m really not sure). I would imagine whoever designed that enjoyed the process. And I imagine it was paid for by the taxpayers. I guess that’s ok – but using other people’s money as a solution to stuff gets old.

    The United States cannot seriously be accused of being a global polluter when current events and policies of huge areas of the world are what they are. The Indian sub-continent and the manufacturing centers in Russia and China……can’t pull them all into focus right now, but this article is one place to start.

      He’s doing quite well, except that he is not happy with the close confinement. They don’t want him running and jumping, and the only way to prevent that is to keep him crated or on a leash. As the vet said – this will pass. He takes doggy drugs, but they don’t do much to calm him down when he is a container of pent up energy.

        My son brought his just turned one year old retriever down here yesterday. He got in a half day of vigorous ridge running and digging. They live in a house with a postage stamp yard. I think it is a horrible life for a dog, even with walks and frequent doggy day care where they have a big area for them to run and play.

        I have never seen a Golden Retriever with the kind of personality and behavior this dog has, and I think it’s his environment. Fortunately, they are looking for a new house with more yard. Which will be great for the boys too.

          in my golden years, planning to sell city house and move to lakehouse…my main thoughts turn to how to make sure the two pooches have a safe place and room to run, sniff, dig, and wallow…..in the city it was about keeping them clean and loved, in the rural area it gets to be about keeping them loved.

          Watched the movie Megan Leavey about bomb sniffing dogs and her dog Rex….still wiping off tears….have become such a dog wuss lately.

          BTW, Goldens, Labs, and especially Jack Russell Terriers need wide open space to run and run and run.

            Border Collies that have no room are the worst! They have to expend energy and have a “job”, or they can be destructive! With mine, the Frisbee is the answer to letting her do her “job”, and getting all of that energy out! The ball works good too.

              A lot of people don’t know who the “real” Alice Cooper is. His father and grandfather were evangelists, and his wife’s father a Baptist Pastor. He’s been married to the same woman for a very long time, and he’s a Christian.
              He got into drinking in the early days of touring, but he’s been sober for many years, and a real family man. The very 1st album I ever bought was “School’s Out” when I was about 12. I’ve always been a fan, but I always knew it was a fantasy character he played.

                I’ll just repeat what I said to Wooly. I personally have nothing against Cooper. I’m impressed by his conversion.

                My “me too” was just for watching a chicken having its head bitten off. Maybe he didn’t really do it it doesn’t matter to me I don’t want to even see what appears to be someone biting a chickens head off.

                I’m not a fan of Alice Cooper’s music but I am somewhat familiar with his life story.

                At karaoke, I sometimes I sing his song, “Poison”, a tale of epic struggle against a femme fatale: “I wanna kiss you but your lips are venomous poison!”

                There aren’t many songs about a guy resisting a woman’s temptation.

                It’s also fun to play on guitar, as it has a very interesting chord progression.

    • From the commenter “ScottFreitas”:

      It definitely angers me greatly to live in a nation whose government loudly and proudly celebrates, champions, and defends homosexuality, while at the same time it demands I shrink back in horror at the thought of there being any type of discernible age difference between a man and a woman engaged in a romantic relationship.

      The same government which now demands I declare myself literally INSANE, and side with it in claiming that male and female do not exist except as arbitrary “gender constructs”. The same government which tells me, a man, that if and when I ever decide to arbitrarily “identify” as being a woman, LO AND BEHOLD, I INSTANTLY BECOME A WOMAN! (and you better address me by the pronoun “Ze” or you will be fined and imprisoned, buster!)

      The only President we ever had get married inside the White House, was DEMONCRAT Grover Cleveland. Grover Cleveland was 49 years old when he married a 21 year old woman!

      Wow! Gosh! Golly! 49 year old guy, marrying a 21 year old chick! INSIDE THE WHITE HOUSE NO LESS! (this is where the actual marriage ceremony took place).

      I will give you time now to scamper off to your safe space and hurriedly vomit.

      Back?

      Yeah. So… 28 years age difference between Grover and his wife.

      And yet we’re supposed to be shocked by Roy Moore supposedly pursuing teenaged women when he was, what, 32 or so?

      Count me out, you who support homosexuals, transgenders, the entire LGBTQ (insert more letters here as you see fit, more are doubtlessly being added all the time) agenda.

      I refuse to be shocked by what in essence boils down to a man loving a woman, and pursuing her to be his wife.

      Wooly I’ve encouraged people to go and post their support for Judge Moore on all social media, post your support of Moore on other republicans social media.

      This is one thing and one thing only it is the democrats setting a tone for 2018 and if Moore can beat these scurrilous allegations and vile people back by standing his ground and getting elected it will be a devastating blow to the democrat smear machine.

      We have to fight these democrats like they are the devils that they are.

      This is a harbinger of what every non-Mcconnell republican is going to face in 2018.

        Lindsey Graham Calls for Roy Moore to Step Aside but Defends Bob Menendez
        The Democratic senator is accused of sex with underage prostitutes, but Graham told a New Jersey court that he’s an honorable man

        http://www.lifezette.com/polizette/lindsey-graham-calling-moore-step-aside-one-week-went-nj-testify-dem-bob-menendez/

        Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham (S.C.) said on Friday that if the allegations against Alabama candidate for U.S. Senate Roy Moore are true, he should step aside, and “should be dealt with severely.”

        But Graham not only hasn’t called for Democrat Sen. Bob Menendez (N.J.), accused of having sex with underage prostitutes, to step aside — he also went to New Jersey on his own dime two weeks ago to testify as a character witness in Menendez’s corruption trial, telling the judge that Menendez is “very honest” and “honorable.”

        I do what I can.

        I talk about things like this at work, with — and only with — people who are perceptive.

        Some folks have a lot of shields up, on any side of the political spectrum. Some are on a side, and are perceptive, even if they are on the side of the State and MSM. Those people can be turned. More and more people have dropped their shields against truth. More and more people are abandoning traditional media as News.

        Verbally drop hints every now and then. It acts like smelling salts.

  9. I’m disliking GWB more every day.

    http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2017/11/george_w_bush_finally_criticizes_another_president.html

    And I voted for the guy. Gullible guy that I am, I loved and supported him.

    BFF with Clinton and Obama, and nothing but Globalist. It truly is a Uniparty, and we’re blessed to have Trump. MAGA. Drain the swamp of all these globalists, impossible a task as it may seem.

    GWB, the Clintons, and Obama are all very, very wealthy. So is DJ Trump.

    DJT built casinos, resorts, golf courses, and hotels, all over the world, to acquire his wealth. He made friends with the construction workers themselves. Hired many into his fold.

    What did Barack, Bill and Hillary, and G.W. build? Nothing. Their wealth comes from nothing of substance whatsoever. All of them are why Trump got elected.

    After 9/11, I started disliking GWB as soon as he lied, because he is a coward, “Islam is a religion of peace.”

        It is always heartbreaking when you realize you were deceived.

        We get over it, and learn. Most don’t, and will never admit they were deceived.

        Understand that it’s because they can’t take being heartbroken. And they have too much pride. This is why it is nearly impossible to impress a “liberal” with facts.

        I’m so glad Trump is our President.

        Right now, that is. I remember being glad that GWB was our President, though, too.

    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.

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

    In Jesus name, we pray. Amen.
