Love watching Jean Pierre. The face and gestures he makes every time he eats something hot cracks me up.

'May I go to the bathroom first?'I had no idea that this was originally meant for Bowie and Jagger. Honestly can't see how they would have made this better.

How many locks in your house with no key?Only the garage has a code.
3 entry doors to the house are deadbolts using the same key.
There is an entry door to the garage that has needed to be replaced for years, but we have been too lazy to do so; that doesn't have a key, only an alarm.
2 barking dogs round out our security -

Media: "Melania's Christmas Decorations are Tacky"One year I was in charge of my kids school's Halloween haunted house. I did it up as a haunted carnival/circus. Those valances and streamers/curtain things in pictures 1 and 2 remind me of how I did the entrances to my haunted carnival.
The Biden's, of course, are a lot prettier.

My X Men StoryJust watched DP and Wolvie over the weekend and the out-takes during the end credits reminded me of something that some of you might find amusing.
My husband has always been into comic books. When Fury showed up at the end of Ironman his head exploded. When X-Men came out we were housebound due to babies, but everyone and their mother kept telling us we had to watch X-men 2. So we rented from the local Blockbuster.
The movie pays an unusual amount of attention to a secondary character, prison guard Mitchell Laurio. The credits showed that the screenplay was written by David Hayter, who went to school with my husband. They bonded over comic books, but had a falling out over a girl. They kind of, sort of made up before graduation, but their friendship was never the same. Thrilled, my husband tried to find him but had no luck. This was before Facebook and social media.
So fast forward to a couple of years ago. We went to a comic con in LA. Those conventions are huge and we were properly lost. We turned a corner, and there sitting in a booth, signing autographs was David Hayter.
My husband bellowed out "David fucking Hayter!"
David Hayter stood up. "Michael Fucking Laurio!"
They hugged, caught up on the last 35 years, and exchanged numbers. Turns out that after high school, David Hayter tried to make it in "the industry" but wasn't getting anywhere. Worried because he was depressed, one of his friends got him a job answering phones for some guy.
This guy was trying to write the screenplay for X-Men, but didn't know anything about comic books. David Hayter would tell him "No man, that's wrong. It's like this...." Finally the guy told him to write the screenplay.
So he did. And he put my husband in the movie. Made him an overweight, disgruntled guard who gets pants by Mystique, and before dying a painful death, gets told by Magneto to never trust a beautiful woman interested in him.
But that's not the kicker. The kicker is that the next day my husband texted him.
"great running into you. happy for your success. next time x,y,z are in town let's get together".David Hayter never responded. Not even with a thumbs up. Hahahahaha. I guess he's still mad at my husband.
Sorry if this is long. I just thought this was funny.

Mistakes may be madeIt has been my experience that once something has been named it is yours and you can't get rid of it.
Hope the vet gives Huahua a clean bill of health.

But they give us money. The funny thing is my parents don't give my brothers money.

Red State Men For ChoiceI think the most effective thing the pro-life movement can do, is advocate for abortion laws that:
- Cap abortions at 12 weeks.
- Fund pregnancy centers to combat abortion propaganda.
- Advocate for laws which require ultrasound before abortion. If it's difficult to pass such a law, try to establish free ultrasound testing close to any abortion provider. A funny thing happens to women when they understand what they are killing.
So Ax, what do you think of Jolly's suggestions for abortion laws? Personally, I think it's a fair compromise.
