      The worst drunk uncle anywhere. My biggest concern is what are the evil empires planning for a going away present for this doddering fool if we get rid of the problem, or a welcome present if he’s re-elected. No one is skeered. Except for 8-year-old little girls. Apparently, he found some of them at his recent convenience store visit.

    National Clean Out Your Medicine Cabinet Day – I knew a doctor who said medicines last for years longer than the expiration date, and US govt. storehouses keep them for 7 years for disasters.

    National North Dakota Day – I have never been to ND

    National Amaretto Day – always a fave

    National Garlic Day – used to be a NO restaurant that celebrated garlic the whole month of August, in every course!

    National Oklahoma City Bombing Commemoration Day

    National Hanging Out Day – shows pic of clothes on the line. Many days this is what I do, but today and tomorrow look like the clothes would not get dry.

      Good day, Czarina! North Dakotans just might need a bit of Amaretto to keep them warm in those long snow months when they can’t hang their clothes out on the lines. Plus, sipping Amaretto after a great meal of garlic-enhanced dishes is splendido and will take their minds off the lousy weather.

      As for those expired prescriptions, your doctor was right. According to numerous articles, it’s pretty much a marketing ploy.

      Prayers for all those who lost loved ones in the Oklahoma City bombing. There was a commemoration today….

      Remembrance ceremony honors 168 lives lost, survivors of OKC bombing 29 years ago

      A remembrance ceremony at the Oklahoma City National Memorial honored those who died, those who survived and those changed forever by the attack.

    Good mornin’, czarina! A busy day today! We clean out our medicine cabinet about every seven years, and I’ve been to ND. You’re good. I also had a client in OKC just around the corner from the Memorial. Very sobering experience.

    Want To Know Why Our Policy Now Favors Terrorists? Maybe This Is The Reason.

    By SAM FADDIS – APR 19, 2024

    The Biden administration’s policy toward Iran and Islamic extremist organizations is regularly described in conservative circles as “weak-kneed,” “naïve,” “feckless” and the like. The suggestion is that this White House is filled with men and women who are not up to the challenge of confronting our nation’s enemies. 

    This is wrong. It is far too generous in fact. It misses the critical essential truth.

      Marc Elias is one of the evilest persons on the planet. He was the muscle behind all of the 2020 lawsuits to get all the voting regs set aside, and he was the cutout I believe for the 2016 Russia dossier. Despicable human being. So, I’m sure that zoom call was entirely spontaneous.

        I remember this. The police really overreacted too, making the problem worse. They harassed people who lived in the area (my father-in-law, for one), and I was questioned by police because I was standing on the sidewalk outside of a store. Ridiculous. Then there was the incident where the police pushed the crowds through the windows on the Conrad Hilton Hotel.

          In 1968 I was all in for Senator Eugene McCarthy. He was quite disturbed by what he termed “fascist” actions at the convention. Right now I googled the convention and McCarthy’s reactions. Here’s an excerpt of an interview published at George Washington University…. (https://nsarchive2.gwu.edu/coldwar/interviews/episode-13/mccarthy1.html)

          INT: You could see it from the Conrad Hilton, the violence in the streets. What is your recollection of the police behavior at that time?

          EM: (Overlap) Well, I didn’t see so much of them, but I see it on television. It was… about three or four years ago, someone had sent me an album he’d compiled – it was big book – and on one side he had pictures from Prague and on the other side he had pictures of Chicago, and if it weren’t for the uniforms and… they were shooting live ammunition instead of tear gas… you really couldn’t have distinguished between Prague and Chicago – it was that violent. And… it was hard to believe it then. And it was really… well, this is your story, but it was really kind of a fascist-run convention from the outside. When I moved into my headquarters in the hotel, I had a secret service – they were very honest people – and they said, “Look, this room is not bugged; you can say anything here. But don’t talk on the telephone, ’cause you’ve been tapped, we know you’re tapped.” And the last day, we were leaving, or planned to leave, they said, “You can leave today if you want to” – that was Friday – “but as soon as you’re out of town, the Chicago police are going to arrest everybody who has any McCarthy identification and charge them with disturbing the peace.” So we stayed over and put the word over and said, “Get out of town – or at least get to the airport, where Daley has no jurisdiction.” We had no idea until we got there, they’d have barbed wire up, that they had… that the National Guard was coming, and… I don’t know … people say, “Well, would you have done differently?” I don’t know – I think if we’d known the Guard was coming, then we would have refused to go to the Convention. There was no need to have the National Guard with live ammunition or irresponsible people. Anyway, most of them were like Quayle: they were avoiding the war by being in the National Guard. And we learned later that even Lyndon had alerted some of the army reserve units in the suburbs, as though there was going to be a third line of defense, that we were going to threaten the whole republic. So…
