For some reason, the name Trump is not as lustrous to buyers as it once was.

How Mike Pence is connected to Russia.

Manafort sneakily got Trump to accept Pence as VP, on that infamous day when Manafort lied to Trump about the campaign plane needing repairs, so that Trump had to stay on the ground, and meet with Pence.

Mike Pence's brother, Ed Pence is VP for Cummins, a majority owned Russian state engine company since 1987.

Cummins uses Lobbying firm PPG.

PPG is run by Charles Black

Black was a former partner w/ Manafort in Ukraine PPG worked w/ TRNC as did Flynn.

Pence ignored warnings and got Flynn hired for Trump's Adviser.


More detail of this web, and why Flynn is so important to Mueller's investigation of Manafort and Pence.

You are automatically registered when you get/renew driver's license, but many do not drive.

Have any of you heard of this problem with a cat?

Our new guy is a year old neutered male. We have his brother also.

Over the past few weeks we have noticed Rocky was lying around a lot, But his brother does same at times, they seem to be copying our dog, they've been around him since they were 6 weeks old.
Since Thanksgiving, tho, he is obviously not using his legs comfortably and prefers to sleep a lot.

appetite good, drinks water, uses litter box, urinates ( we can tell) but wants to lie on a heating pad and/or the hot air floor registers. Doesn't object much to being picked up, but is not liking his right side legs to be felt.

going to vet first thing tomorrow, naturally, but was hoping for a few clues till then.

"Does God have a roll in Thanksgiving?"

This is the headline, in the editorial page of our local weekly newspaper.
