Welcome to DU, slack-bot!

SO cool! AWWWWWW she left the night light on for Baby Gate Man. I am really liking DC's mayor. She's a great and gutsy lady!

Welcome to DU, JustGene!

I have loved the Beatles since I first heard about them in 4th grade. I'm in my 60s now. Still love 'em.

Me, too!

I had three good friends in grade school with something unique in common. Each of us liked a different Beatle. We had a Mrs. Lennon, Mrs. Harrison, Mrs. Starkey, and I was Mrs. McCartney.

I suspect Paul had a lot of wives out there!

Probably keeps his leash nice and clean and at the ready.

It's been noticed that trump doesn't have a dog as so many presidents have. But why would he need one when he has Lindsey Graham? And Lindsey doesn't even have to be walked. He can take his own little self to the bathroom.

Details are few and far between, since the lead changed (from COVID-19 to George Floyd's murder). But cases and deaths are still increasing. More than 20-thousand new cases in 24 hours. George Floyd was killed on Memorial Day. May 25th. That was a week ago Monday. This is now almost Friday, June 5th. I'm writing this at 11:56pm, Pacific time. Friday, June 5th is Day 12 since Floyd's death. You know what they say about that key two-week interval... two weeks from the day of presumed exposure...

I heard something today from someone worrying about cases likely going up by 20-thousand per day if we have a rebound. Take a look at the difference between the confirmed cases last night and the confirmed cases by this evening.

Very nice!

Wearing pro-Biden t-shirts makes the wearer more handsome (if male) and more beautiful (if female).

About calimary

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
