I won't ever know if Melania wears Prada. I liked her first inaugural outfit. Her choice of the "I don't care. Do you?" designer makes everything she's worn from the swearing in ceremony to today a run away train to nowhere in particular.
Norway is in a furore!

I read this so you don't have to.
There are suggestions she resign herself to solitude and leave the Crown Prince to reign without her with it further suggested she cite health issues as the reason.
I'd divorce her but that's just me.
Is that the Late Show that Letterman hosted or Leno?
You can tell I don't watch television often.
I'll watch this when I'm in more of a romantic mood.
I think it would go over my head at the moment.
They do some good sometimes but what I like seeing most is when they make some draconian decision, face backlash, and then set the laws/ rules back the way they found them. This happens with some frequency.
I was going to say I love the light fixtures. I didn't see it was reproduction Tiffany. I love the dragonfly motif. It is among my favorite animal motifs along with geckos, frogs, and beetles.
Well done!
I'm guessing that the Virginia Supreme Court will soon allow us to vote on an initiative to redistrict Virginia for 2026, overturning a rural district court's injunction.
With you Steve. We humans are weird in the things we're attracted to. I think the days started better watching Captain Kangaroo than listening to the news. There's some comfort in that. Best to get out of our houses - and take a walk in the forest - or look at the stars from time-to-time for a counterpoint to the madness that exists outside. Find a quiet place to retreat to from time-to-time.

Electricity should be a public utility like it used to be before privatization.
My sister-in-law got hit with an astronomical increase in her electricity bill making it $800 and a $600 propane bill to heat here house within the same few days.
The electricity bill made no sense but had to be paid and she and her son had to endure a night of sub-zero temmperatures without propane to heat their house.
She had to spend $600 on tires at the same time. She was not in a good mood.
I didn't ask but I'm assuming she had electric space heaters so their lives were not in danger or not in too much danger.
This is happening all over the US. This never happened when I was growing up.
