Based on the fact that one of the terrorists had a "North American" accent!
-
It seems such a claim was made but nobody has furnished anything to back it up. Bad people can come from anywhere though ... doubt Canada is immune from having a few nut cases of their own.
-
I'm sure there are WR.

I just watched the infamous eyeroll video ... LOL. Lives there a wife who has never done the eyeroll thing when her hubby and another guy are talking and trying to get her involved in their foolishness? Must not have been too bad ... the stinkeye did not appear.
-
Mary, loved your poster about Michelle! haha!
-
Don't know if she did the eye roll thing but she definitely was not amused. heehehehee!
-
Regarding the clip, someone else joked: "Mrs. Boehner just APPEARS to be cramming silverware into her bag, right???" lol!!!!

-
She must have a pretty big purse.
-
Boehner scowled all day. Loser.
-
Some lip-reading expert on the news said that Boehner and President Obama were talking about having a cigarette before coming into the building. Apparently Boehner said something like, "Someone won't let you, huh?" to the president, meaning Michelle. I'd roll my eyes too.

I remember wearing a lot of cheese cloth in the 70's and indian sandals - I was a hippy but a neat one

-
E - are you there? Hopefully you are sound asleep. Just wanted to say how much I hate insomnia!
....also, calling Kam...not seen you in these parts for a few days. Hope everything is ok and that retirement is still treating you well.

Just sent you a PM, Athena. I changed up my bedroom conditions - lower temp, heater on the guinea piggers, and overhead fan on. The combo of cooler, moving air and noise from the heater and fan have a soporific effect. For now. I still wake up at 5 but it's way better than 2am!
-
I liked Michelle's "old" hairstyle better. It was more elegant. I agree that the red dress did NOT enhance her figure. I'm not a fan of red pouffy dresses in general, though.
-
E, Ray has the same problem. He has a fan on all night, not because its hot, but because he needs to hear the buzzing. Consequently, he has been banished to the guest bedroom on weeknights. hahahaha! Actually, my night terrors would wake him up and he would be a zombie at work the next day, so it works out well.
-
I liked her hair and the dress. Its a wonder we all get along so well with such earth shattering and compromising differences! HAHAHAHHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
-
Sending a kiss to both E and Blue.
-
Belinda, the shirt, definitely not, but the vest and jeans, that's me. Thanks for the pic.
-
If I had to sit next to Boehner, I'm sure there would have been a lot more than one eye roll. Michele has such grace under pressure.
Lots of news yesterday regarding the reaction many have over the Pres.'s speech. Interesting....really. How many people can hear something totally different than I did.
Looking at the vest got me thinking about when we finally reached the point ( boy, I am dating myself ) when we could wear a straight, tight skirt rt. above the knee rather than below it. Took a bit for me to like it. Guess that is when my flexibility started....once I 'liked' it I never looked back. I think my nightly prayer is hoping that I never become inflexible --- I want to change with the times and not be stuck in the wrong century and go unceremoniously mad like a certain NRA member who made a speech in Las Vegas last night.

sigh!!! no spell checker
-
Boehner's wife looked like she had a bee in her bonnet during the whole inauguration. Bitter much?
Edit: Here's a pic of her. Am I wrong?

-
They both looked as though they were attending a funeral.
-
My thought as well. Not that any of us saw all of the proceedings, but how difficult for Mrs. B. No grace there. I guess if you have to show disloyalty to someone....but darn, I would want to hold my head up while the ship is sinking. No way would I wish to spend the day looking like I swallowed a lemon. The Times They Are A'Changin' -----

IMO, he looks as though he's about to burst into tears, and she looks like she's thinking "I'd rather be in Florida - I hate Washington"! Whereas, Schumer looks like he's gloating! And Malia is looking at Roberts and thinking "You'd just better get the words right THIS time".
-
had my tattoos done yesterday - that was NOT fun. and the stuff I have to put on them BURNS!!!!! The weird thing (to me) is that on my reconstructed side I hurt and burn about four inches away from where the tattoo was done..... very mixed up nerves.
Athena - responding to your post from about four pages back - I never tried everything and never wanted to (be it cigarettes, drugs or behaviors). I had SO MANY acquaintances who would say to me that I couldn't tell if I'd like something if I hadn't tried it. Whenever they'd start to push me like that (in whatever direction) I'd know they didn't have MY best interests at heart, therefore they were not friends of mine.
I told my husband yesterday that I've always been out of step with the times. I guess another way to say it is that I dance to my own drummer and depend on society very little for approbation.
I both loved and hated many of the dresses in the fashion show of the last few pages. I've never had the svelte look that designer styles need. When I was young I had the Marilyn Monroe figure (except I'm short), but with age - well, I'm fortunate that my husband likes my looks, but designers would throw up.
-
This is beside the point, but the Boehners look like they shared the same tanning booth! I thought it was just him, but tanning seems to be a family affair.
GG, I don't understand why you had discomfort during the tattooing. My tattoo person thoroughly numbed me and I didn't feel a thing. Nothing I put on them later burned either. I think I was asked to wash it 3 times a day with a disinfectant soap for a few days, and put on Aquafor, or something like that. Sorry you had to go through that. :-(
I enjoyed the fashion show also, although I've never had a body like those models'. Kind of glad though as they look very unhealthy.
-
GG - I am the most "un-hip" and "un-cool" person I know.
Never belonged to my "times" either and was incredibly farsighted and responsible as an adolescent - I understood the grownups better than my peers. I never felt comfortable with young people when I was young, I hated rock concerts because I can't stand large boistrous crowds and even today I rarely enjoy small talk. Not "cool" at all!
These days I dress casually and my closet is on the boring, frumpy side. Damned Tamoxifen bugs bunny belly is still with me. When I was young I disliked casual environments and parties and clothes. I am a bit more laid back now but if I had to choose I would say I feel more at ease in formal environments than raucous ones. Totally un-cool!
-
Athena, I can relate. I was never able to look cool. If I tried to look nice, I would always get the compliment that I looked "elegant." It is, of course, a nice compliment, but "elegant" is not "cool." Even as a teen I had a hankering for grown up shoes, heavy silks and pleated skirts. Unfortunately it was the Sex Pistols era.
-
yorkiemom - I kept laughing every time the camera came to Mrs. Orange, she looked down right ANGRY. REALLY miffed, po'ed ANGRY. Whew - glad I wasn't in front of that "glare." There were a few photos of her at the luncheon, where you could almost HEAR what she was thinking, and it wasn't nice.
Loved everything about the Inauguration - esp. The Address: Senaca, Selma, Stonewall - YES, YES, YES, YES....oh, my I do give thanks so often for having this human being as President of the United States.
-
Momine, we are kindred spirits!
-
Athena, it seems that way, although I must ask, how do you feel about Alexander McQueen? Are you inclined to diss him like you did Mr. B? Because then we might have problems
