In the UK when a party decides a liability has to go, they are gone:

Wallop!

Out the door!!

Two Little Hands

Anita's Perspectives on Life

I held their little hands so tight,

Guiding them through life so bright,

Watching them grow up so fast,

Wishing those moments would last.

But now they’ve grown and found their love,

A gift from heaven above,

And though my heart is filled with pride,

It aches to see them by someone else’s side.

They’ve taken their first steps away,

To start a life with their love today,

And though I’ll miss them every day,

I’ll watch them grow in every way.

As they give their hands to another,

I know they’ll find happiness together,

And though it’s hard to let them go,

I’ll always be here to love them so.

For though their hands may now belong,

To someone else, they’re still my song,

And I’ll always hold their love so dear,

As they take their journey year after year.

Mike Pence Is WRONG!

Filosofa's Word

On January 6th, 2021, the insurrectionists Trump had summoned to Washington to storm the Capitol constructed a noose outside the Capitol and began chanting “Hang Mike Pence.”  When informed that they were threatening to hang Mike Pence, his own Vice President, Donald Trump replied, “Mike deserves it” and said that those rioters were not doing anything wrong.  Since then, Donald Trump has contended that the responsibility for the attempted coup on January 6th was the fault of Mike Pence …

“Had he sent the votes back to the legislatures, they wouldn’t have had a problem with Jan. 6, so in many ways you can blame him for Jan. 6.”

In March of this year, Pence said at the Gridiron dinner in Washington …

“His reckless words endangered my family and everyone at the Capitol that day. And I know that history will hold Donald Trump accountable.”

IT FEELS FAKE

IT FEELS FAKE

When someone dies I do not

Offer a note of care, because

The loss is so great that words

On paper feel like an insult.

And there’s the problem of who to

Send it to? Wife, mother or child?

I feel like I should

Send it to me because I care.

Losing someone to another dimension

Leaves me speechless.  “Where  are they,”

The child in me frets, unable to

Send a drop of water to the fire..

When you die you’ll never get a

card from me. Who needs it the most?

And how pitiful the proper

response from me would be?

I know I don’t play by the rules.

Either cruelly I cannot be bothered

Or I care too much.

I know, I know: Knowing that someone departed is missed and remembered should make the chief loser feel better, but that’s so miniscule, and depending…
