1. Stevie Wonder sure is a national treasure!

His "Someday at Christmas" is my fav holiday song, although radio stations don't seem to play it anymore.

"Someday at Christmas men won't be boys
Playing with bombs like kids play with toys
One warm December our hearts will see
A world where men are free…"

2. Awww! He certainly is! I'm glad that Stephen covered this

[SheltieLover]

3. Me too, & thx for posting!

[Rhiannon12866]

4. And I thought the Opening would get DU attention - since they picked on Olive Garden!

[SheltieLover]

5. Lol

Omg, Olive Garden salad & breadsticks!

Might have to get to go order today.

[Rhiannon12866]

6. You won't after watching that video!

[SheltieLover]

7. My audio isn't working correctly

So I didn't watch.

[Rhiannon12866]

8. Well, they trashed Olive Garden - making fun of the anti-vaxxers who were protesting there

And Olive Garden has been a joke on DU for years. It started when a DUer went to New York City and went to Olive Garden for Italian food. DUers made fun of her - and it stuck.

9. Thx for explaining

Oh, I'm sure there is much better Italian food in NY, but here in the land of bbq a possum, not so much.

I do love their slad & breadsticks.

Why were morans protesting? Hopefully, a strict vax & mask policy! 🤞

[Rhiannon12866]

10. There's apparently a vaccine mandate at Olive Garden so they protested there for two hours

And since it's New York, there's a mask mandate to enter any business.

11. Glad to hear on both counts!

They should have tossed cold water on them.

[Rhiannon12866]

12. Given the temperatures now in New York, they would have frozen solid!

[SheltieLover]

14. Precisely!

Frozen morans. Tourist attraction.
