femmocrat's JournalIn case you missed it, drumpf claimed wind energy was killing California eagles yesterday.
Larry Wilmore made a funny about it, wondering it that is what happened to Glenn Frey!

Drumpf personally saved that eagle from those California wind farms.
He is just too modest to tell us all about it.
Very cute Google Doodle today! Frankie Manning and the Lindy Hop:
Todays Google Doodle celebrates swing dancer Frankie Manning on what would have been his 102nd birthday.
Know as the Ambassador of the Lindy Hop, Manning took swing dancing to new levels by introducing a style of swing dance that involved spinning, flipping and tossing your dance partner in the air.
Todays doodle by Nate Swinehart celebrates Frankie Mannings acrobatic, powerful style, in which his partners were flipped and spun to the emphatic horns of Count Basie, Duke Ellington, and others.

Born in Harlem, Manning brought his style of swing dance to a number of 1940s films, including Hellzapoppin and Hot Chocolate (also known as Cottontail) with Duke Ellington. In 1989, he won a Tony Award for his choreography in the Broadway play Black and Blue.

Rachel is showing how the State Dept.'s "print and file" system for preserving emails would work.
It would involve warehouses full of boxes of paper -- that's right, paper-- print-outs. Rachel called it "alarming". It is the only approved method for saving data.
My son came back home for awhile when he went to grad school.
I loved having another responsible adult here. Made life a lot easier for us. I wouldn't mind if he moved back again!
I used to never miss "Book Notes" with Brian Lamb.
I still watch Book TV occasionally, depending on who is talking. I agree, it is superior to all of the "news/talk" channels on cable.
My class has a Facebook page.
I did some peeking at people I knew back when. Good grief.... they are a bunch of rabid trump supporters now!
One fellow (we used to be friends) has a fake identity just for the purpose of spouting his crazy right wing views and others "like" him!!!
How about Martin O'Malley?
I don't think he is busy at the moment. Everyone seemed to like him!
Today's Google Doodle: Yuri Kochiyama's birthday.
Kochiyama left a legacy of advocacy: for peace, U.S. political prisoners, nuclear disarmament, and reparations for Japanese Americans interned during the war. She was known for her tireless intensity and compassion, and remained committed to speaking out, consciousness-raising, and taking action until her death in 2014.
