Trimming the hedges wasn't even thought of back then. They were lucky if they got their legs shaved without tearing off half a layer of skin. lol

glennlab replies on Sep 6, 2020:

One of the first fights I had with my ex was when she used my razor to shave her legs because hers wasn't very good. I asked why she didn't just buy a man's razor since she was paying twice as much for something half as good. Long story short, I bought her one just like mine so she wouldn't be embarrassed by having to shop in the men's section.

You would think that they'd love to.

It dies back to the ground here, but farther south it will winter over. I had a friend in San Antonio that picked them year round.. I'm going to plant a couple of starts this fall and see if I can get some new plants for the spring. They seem to do well in pots and in the ground.

I have been a member of the progressive caucus at many conventions, but they were too unorganized to craft a plan of action. It normally meets at the same time as the veterans caucus, they better (marginally) how to get things done so my efforts rest with them more. The progressive caucus tends to shotgun approach rather than rifle shot. The black caucus was equally ineffective until they started to focus, now they are a major force to be recconded with.

@Surfpirate I know Dr Ron Paul, the lake Jackson ObGyn, I had to listen to both he and his followers spout off about elimating all gov't except actual defense (no overseas involvement at all) and privatizing all other gov't services and letting people die if they didn't have insurance, since it was all personal responsibility. His stand of the gold standard was quite a scam since he was actively involved in selling gold and silver by mail order and selling a finacial newsletter that encouraged heavily investing in gold and silver. That doesn't sound very left wing to me. If left wing is selling the roads, the post office, doing away with all social programs and every man fends for himself, you have a much different understanding of right and left than I do.

Both he and his son were conscripted into the confederate army, serving in different regiments, but in some of the same battles. The other problem was that depending on the person writing the story, they spelled the name at least 3 different ways.

@BirdMan1 He may not, but the rank and file workers that have to perform the mundane preservation are normally extremely conscientious. You might remember that the clerks were dutifully retrieving torn up documents from the trash and taping them back together so that they could be archived.

Hold on, it can be really rough, I had a mild case and wanted to die to get better. I can't emphasis enough to stock up on electrolytes, wet wipes and get plenty of rest, no matter how much you slept last night.

@wolf041 It progresses fairly quickly and can take a while to get back up to speed. I have asthma so I had inhalers, and a host of respiratory meds and equipment. I was only able to handle fluids for about a week. Everyone is different. A good friend (nurse with Covid experience) suggested a baby aspirin daily, my dr agreed in spite of it normally being contraindicated for me. Best of luck, and if it gets bad head to the ER.

Thanks to Jackie Kennedy, yes they are safe... As the project progressed, Mrs. Kennedy and Mr. du Pont saw the need for a permanent curator in the White House to deal with the growing collection. Lorraine Waxman Pearce became the first curator of the White House in late March 1961. By September, Congress sanctioned the restoration of the White House with Public Law 87-286, which officially declared the White House a museum. This act allowed the Fine Arts Committee and the curator's office to assure potential donors that their gifts would not be auctioned off or kept in the private collection of any president. It further protected the rooms of the White House from being radically altered in the future and clearly defined the project as historic preservation, rather than mere redecoration. ... full article https://www.jfklibrary.org/learn/about-jfk/jfk-in-history/the-white-house-restoration

Hopefully the National park Service (the ones that are responsible for maintenance) saved those plants so that they might be restored or replanted elsewhere. They are a very good group of preservationist after all.

glennlab replies on Aug 23, 2020:

@altschmerz The United States Botanic Garden would be the most likely repository or the NPS nursery, nothing from the white house is thrown away unless it has been totally destroyed beyond restoration. I would see them taking cuttings even if the mother plant was removed.

glennlab replies on Aug 22, 2020:

@TomMcGiverin The last minor party candidate to gather an electoral vote was George Wallace , so you are right there. The Libertarian party has had the financial backing of the Koch's for decades, even they decide that it was a better use of their money to back a movement within the existing structure, the Tea Party. I have invested a lot of time in trying to change the democratic party, in fact we elected two more liberal Bernie backers to the DNC this year. Had we been able to have an in person convention this year, we may have been able to elect more. In two years I will be back at the state convention working to elect more progressives/liberals to the DNC.

It is easy to finds fault, but unless you are doing something to change it, you are pissing on my leg and telling me that it's raining. I don't like the system we have, but it is the system we have.

I am sure that you know that SBA was denied a trial by jury since she readily admitted her guilt, so the judge dismissed the jury, found her guilty, imposed a fine of $100 which she refused to pay, he then refused to jail her for failure to pay the fine, denying her the right to appeal that the right for women to vote had been granted by the 14th amendment. The government refused to bring any of the other women charged to trial, since all they would have to do is plead not guilty to get a trial that would serve as a basis for appeal.

He can be currently pardoned at any time after the crime has been committed. He doesn't even have to admit guilt. to wit Nixon was pardoned for all crimes he might have committed during his presidency before a grand jury could even be impannaled.

that is not in anyway what I was implying. It was about the lengths he was willing to go. No where did I say that women belong in the bitch seat. By the way, I still ride. People need to accept humor and not try to find fault in it.
