Anyone watching the opening ceremony of the Olympics?

I am.  I think it's been a bit boring.  Watching Gisele walk across the stadium while some guy sings?   :sleepy:

It was ok, but it went on too long. I liked the London one better.

David Crosby turns 75 years old this weekend.  :eek:

I would have never thought (back in the day) he would ever see an age north of 45; and yet here he is.

I think he must have been in the same room with Keith Richards when he sold his soul to the Devil, and signed the contract as a witness!  :devil29:

Nothing, and I do mean nothing, gets my spirit soaring like the sight of a grandchild with a huge smile and a hearty "Hi Poppy" coming from their mouth as they run full tilt into my arms. . .  :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:

Daddy came into the house carrying Punkin and she wanted down immediately and acted as if she hasn't seen me in a year as she ran the length of the house and into my arms ; wrapping her arms around my neck while she hugged me really hard. (Then she did the same to MiMi too).

I said, "I think she has been missing us."

"Yah, think?, momma said.  :biggrin:

Ya, the economy is doing great.......  :rolleyes:

http://www.theindychannel.com/news/local-news/ruby-tuesday-closing-95-locations-nationwide :rolleyes:

Inasmuch as the Dow, the S&P 500 and NASDAQ all 3 closed at record highs on the same day last week, this is simply more evidence that the long-held conservative mantra of "trickle down" economics is absolute bullshit.

Oh, and Macy's is closing 100 stores as well...
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

I was looking for a list of those stores, but couldn't find it.  Has a list of the affected locations been released?

Last I heard it wasn't a Republican in office and, except for the last couple of years, Dems were in the majority in congress. You need to see the article I posted in the other thread.

This has nothing to do with who is in office because very little of substance has changed in U.S. economic policy since Reagan.  This isn't a new thing.

Yes but I chose not to discuss it because you would be out of your depth in that discussion and I would just get frustrated and bang my head against a pole.   :biggrin:

So, even though he hasn't been in office for years, the bad economy is Regan's fault and has nothing to do with Obama. Wow, that's really stretching things isn't it?

The economy isn't as bad as you think it is, as Exterminator pointed out to you.   :rolleyes:
