I say yes, you say no, OR People are Strange

Amazing that Mittens won't go on any shows or even answer reporters' questions.  He knows perfectly what those questions would be.  Coward!

Oh ducky! I'm so sorry!

You just had to ask.

Many kilts in attendance.  Very sexy!  Ceremony took place on the staircase at a private club.  All very exquisit yet simple at the same time.

Please note, no foobs of any kind were worn!!!  Yah!

Pip, You all look great!

Pip, awesome pics! I also love kilts. We went to Scotland a few years ago and saw many performances with them.

Gorgeous, PiP.   And men in kilts -- a special bonus!

p.s.  looks like the York Club

Linda, you 'may' be right.  Are you familiar with the place?

E -any biopsy news yet?

Linda,then, as you know, the food is amazing and the service is impecible.  Her family has been connected to the club since it's inception.  We were just fortunate recipients of their wedding plans.  The staff really seemed to enjoy the 'less than formal' partying that took place that evening!

Pip, I love, love, love the kilts!

I've also texted with AnnNYC and she was fine yesterday . . . though surely at some point she's going to go stir crazy, and who could blame her. 

Ducky, so glad you checked in -- I hope your power gets restored quickly, and that "tomorrow night" business is just a matter of underpromising so they can overdeliver.  Fingers crossed, knock on wood, etc.  Good thoughts also going out for your Cape May house.

A quick report from Red Hook, mainly in the form of a shout-out to the Occupy kids, who are truly amazing.  They're working with a neighborhood organization there, so we were able to use its facility, which has a teeny tiny kitchen - I swear it was smaller than our apartment kitchen, and that's pretty small.  There were lots of other goodhearted but essentially clueless volunteers there or trickling in when we arrived, and a couple of the more experienced folks quickly turned us into an effective kitchen crew.  The random piles of donated food were organized into specific menu items (there was a chili pile, a tuna salad pile, a corn and black bean salsa pile, etc.) and people went to work mixing and chopping and assembling sandwiches.  All of this without a single barked order, just polite suggestions and encouragement to step up and take responsibility.  (For example, asking a question like, "what are we supposed to do with the trash?" would get an answer like, "would you like to organize that?")  Seriously, people who pay big bucks for "leadership seminars" could learn a lot from hanging out with these kids.  It was inspiring.

Linda

Fingers crossed, then.

Pip - what a gorgeous wedding.

This time next week, Mittens is going to be eating his heart - and conservatives will spin more lies. Maybe they should form their own republic. Rush the Fascist Pig will be crying foul.

No drive-bys, please. We commie pinkos just get richer. Deletions will cement the democratic party's suzerainity for generations, goats and materputrids.

Ducky, glad to hear you're safe but so sorry to hear about no power -- and the uncertainty about your beach house. Fingers crossed that it will be OK. Alexandria/sandy, relieved that you checked it ... And sorry you have to do colonoscopy prep during a power outage! At least it is keeping you "busy" ....



E, YOU ARE RESTING, *AREN'T YOU???!!!!!!*



Power is out in various spots around Northern Virginia, but my immediate neighborhood is still OK. Further afield they are out of power, but seem to be few trees down. I think the derecho knocked down all the weaker ones this summer.



Keep safe, all.



L

ducky - I hope you are warm enough.  No light, no power - bad.  Being cold - the worst!  

Hahaha!!

Sorry about your situation, Ducky.

Never have had a colonoscopy, still old fashioned and prudish about topic.

Was happy to hear Gov. Christi say....this is not the time for politics....he said.....I was asked a question and when asked answered honestly.....Obama's response to this regarding my conversations with him have been "fantastic"..glad to hear that response.
