Ryan Zinke resigns as interior secretary amid multiple investigations - Chicago Tribune

Lavergne comments on Dec 15, 2018:

Imagine that. Zinke is going to slither out of Washington before the dem's take over the house and start questioning his crooked ass....another one of tRumps swamp creatures "gettin' while the gettin' is good"...

So, my oldest child (age 34) and I had some prolonged time in the car when she could not drive.

Lavergne comments on Dec 15, 2018:

I think this scenario is a very, very long way off.... Americans have always been in love with their cars - I can't even envision this country walking away from them. I think there will be areas throughout the country that will have some limited success - but I guess we'll see.

Lavergne comments on Dec 15, 2018:

Evangelicals may be dwindling....but people who are small minded, petty and angry will still band together under some other name or premise to spew their hatred and bigotry. There is a very good reason for separation of church and state and we need to elect officials who understand that. IMHO

@germangirl90439 and I went to a nice cafe for lunch yesterday.

Lavergne comments on Dec 9, 2018:

I LOVE doing stuff like that - repurposing leftovers in ways that no one would believe they were actually "left overs". Good for you! It sounds great.... ;)

It's 8AM and I'm already prepping for lunch.

Lavergne comments on Dec 9, 2018:

I pretty much do the same thing you do - on the grill if the weather is good - or in the oven if its not. I do have a recipe for salmon poached in olive oil and herbs. Sounds a little weird but I did try it and it was very good. Salmon is one of those things that is good however you cook it - but I agree with you - I don't like it the way the restaurants bring it out (very raw still in the center). :(

I had a hell of a scare tonight.

Lavergne comments on Dec 9, 2018:

we have a cat that loves to get really close to the fireplace and I have recurring nightmares about her fur accidentally catching on fire. So glad you were able to catch her and extinguish before it hurt her - how very scary. Totally understand the crying - sometimes we do it when we are relieved that it wasn't worse....

Whatever blows up your kilt!

Guilty as charged your honor!

Lavergne comments on Dec 5, 2018:

Many years ago, I went to happy hour with a female friend (who had some serious cleavage goin' on). I said "good gried - look at that crowd at the bar - we'll never get our drinks." She said "watch this".....elbowed her way to the front of the crowd, waved her money in the air and "leaned in" - allowing her cleavage to rest on the bar. We had our drinks in about 3 minutes. ;)

Guilty as charged your honor!

Listening to the discussion of Flynn's sentencing recommendation from Mueller.

Lavergne comments on Dec 5, 2018:

Totally agree. tRump paid no attention to the "warnings" about Flynn because he wasn't hearing anything he didn't already know. More importantly - he didn't care how corrupt or "damaged" Flynn was. Pence is in it up to his beady little eyes. The only reason I'm not beating the impeachment drum is because Pence will be just as bad.
