(11,464 posts)In NJ we finally can buy flowers and did so yesterday.
Because of late frost, one never can do it earlier.
Sure, rebels buy it a week or two early, they get itchy for that instant gratification
But we old timers know, to purchase the flowers early will lead to bad things
so we are patient
sure enough there was a frost last week, and those rebels lost their battle with the flowers and will now have to purchase new ones. We told them so, but they didn't listen.
and we wait til Mothers Day weekend.
and we don't let rain stop us, because rain is beautiful. It is Liquid Sunshine as a wonderful lady at Walt Disney World used to tell us. And she was 100% correct.
Because in liquid sunshine, the sad sams and debbie downers stayed in their hotel, especially early morning, and when we went to the park, it was empty and one could go on one ride
after another.
so, this morning, we have Liquid Sunshine, we bought our flowers early
we saw the reanimation on tv that is the Jersey Shore, which will be ready to open in 16 days
(now, we don't go much down there, but to our friends and neighbors who do travel,
and those that work down there
(and we don't ask the workers if they are democratic or republican, same at Walt Disney world...because really, does it matter if Mickey Mouse is a democratic mouse or a republican one? Hell no, they don't vote anyhow.
But bring on the liquid sunshine. Because we need the water to fill the lakes to a pristine level this summer so swimming will be nice and fresh.
I bask in the knowledge that Hillary Rodham Clinton will finally break that all men's club, like
Lee Elder finally broke the color barrier at the Master's Golf Tourney all those years ago.
Of course people didn't like Tiger Woods being the #1 player tied with Jack Nicklaus of all time.
But then they hated Jackie Robinson too. And they hated Dr. King. And they hated Michael Jordan
Haters are like the Burgermeister MeisterBurger from the animated Santa Claus is coming to town.
Hillary Rodham Clinton will be our Kris Kringle.
Filling the world with joy and happiness 24/7/365
Haters will be like the old BM MB who was rendered politically obsolete by the end of the show.
Through every little cloud in the sky, one will be able to see the wonderful smile of our President's Bill Clinton42 Barack Obama 44 Hillary Rodham Clinton 45 and Michelle Obama 46.
Ain't life Groovy!
I think it is. And so will 80% of America.
As we sang back in spring 1969, THIS IS THE DAWNING OF THE AGE OF OBAMACLINTON
LET THE SUNSHINE IN! (with apologies to the 5th demension,and Rado,Ragni,MacDermott(c)
and bring back a Clinton to the White House in 2016.
If you loved Bill and Barack, you will love Hillary.
80% of America will.
nah nah hey hey kiss the Bush's and the Ron/RandPaul/DavidDuke/John Birch Society's goodbye!
now, where was that photo of Hillary standing behind the Presidential Podium?
remember, Life is a song worth singing.
Happy Mother's Day, mom. You were forced out of Austria by Hitler the hater, and you didn't think you would live long enough to see a black President and the coming of a woman President. You knew it would happen, but you thought it was still years away.
Of course, in Hitler's world, it would never have been possible.But you are going to be here in 2016, and see Hillary win the most decisive victory of all time.
100 million voters and 475plus electoral votes including Texas.
LBJ is smiling up in heaven! God Bless LBJ everyday! Without LBJ, Barack Obama couldn't have been President.The protesters caused the war to last another 4 years, when it could have ended Dec.1968.
