  1. That is awesome. I hope that LT Gov Sears will be able to make a difference in the commonwealth state. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  2. Yes I am Black, Proud and Republican! History was made yesterday in Virginia. Republican Winsome Sears is projected to be the first woman elected to statewide office in Virginia. Once again Republicans are breaking down barriers and boldly presenting representation for all citizens. This is important because after the Goldwater Blunder and FDR Bribe, Blacks are taking a prominent lead in the GOP. Unlike the false narrative, President Donald J Trump sounded the Clarion call to All Americans that if you want a piece of the dream itโ€™s right here for you. The Republican Party is one trying to be defined by sex or color. Itโ€™s a Party seeking to attract the faithful, ambitious, kind and loyal elements of the American population. Those striving to embrace the present and envision a bold feature. Here is her moving acceptance speech. Itโ€™s time to heal America and move forward with the Grand Ole Party ๐ŸŽ‰. Let us not be divided. https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2021/11/03/republican_winsome_sears_becomes_first_black_woman_elected_as_virginias_lt_governor.html
  3. Thatโ€™s what they are doing in the Jersey Election. Itโ€™s why mail in ballots should be outlawed. Absentee voting is mail in voting. No early voting or they need to be processed the day of elections before polls close.
  4. Gotcha. ๐Ÿ˜ McAwful needs about 80k votes to flip script. That's not gonna happen regardless of whether they mail-in or FEDEX the ballots.๐Ÿ˜ While they might claim Russia or China or aliens rigged the election, the Demwitocrats playbook is not to holler voter fraud when they lose an election. They'll sulk and lick their wounds for 2-4 years until the next cycle. As you may have gathered, I'm not either team. From my perch, all of these politicians are two sides of the same coin. I'm waiting for real folks who want to do public service work and everything in the best interests of America instead of catering to special interests i.e. money.๐Ÿ˜Ž
  5. Nope. Virginia doesn't play that. Terry McAwful lost fair and square. He'll go home and sat down somewhere.๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜Ž
  6. While Uncle Charlie Wison is definitely carrying the torch, it was the Gap Band that made us aware of his voice. They laid down some of funkiest music ever recorded. Thanks for the music. RIP Mr. Ronnie Wilson. ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  7. @Mzuri, I've definitely noticed everything you've written. People have been sliding down that slope for several decades. I've always made it a point to know my neighbors especially those who live closest to my house. It just makes sense to me. I think it's ridiculous for people to live around each for years and not know the person across the street. I've seen it. Yet, if something was to happen to their home, they'd be looking around "for a friend" to see if anybody saw anything. If I have a package delivered to my house, I can call or text a few people in my neighborhood who would pull it indoors until I got home. So, regardless of whether I'm doing my yard work or washing my vehicle or whatever, I'm like the neighborhood mayor in that I speak to everyone passing by and hold conversations with the folks I know personally. This past summer, I thought about doing a pandemic-friendly outdoor concert in my driveway. The neighbors would have been able to listen to the music from their own homes whether it was the porch or a lawn chair in their driveway or looking out the window. I even talked to a few neighbors about it. They were ready to fire up grills and cook food and turn it into a community block party. I got busy with other things and didn't do it. But, in the spring or summer of 2022, I'm definitely going to make it happen. Who knows, maybe I'll run for mayor in 2024. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
  8. Mzuri I liked that movie as well, but the struggles such as the image you posted of them sleeping in public restrooms were hard to watch. The real life Chris Gardner should have had a better plan. But things happen in life, we all know that, and we deal with things as best we can. It's precisely for THESE type of situations that I support the U.S. having such a strong safetynet. You can make all the plans you want..then something comes out of left field and hits you upside the head and you're sitting there wondering... WTF????? Around June of 2020 I was laid off and collecting more money on unemployment than when I was working! If you remember people were talking about how bad the Winter was going to be, calling it a "dark winter", and how many people were gonna die. I was concerned about society collapsing before I could spend that money I was getting...LOL Now it's October of 2021! Society is still standing, MORE people are actually dying every day than their were a year ago but there's no talk of a shut down. And instead of an over abundance of money, I'm now unemployed. Add to that the concern about being forced to get the jab just to get a job and the increased pressure from society to get it!!! "Get the shot...get the shot!!!" Talk about a fucking twilight zone....lol. Shit happens and we need strong safetynets to catch people and protect them from hitting rock bottom.. You never know WHAT type of situation you'll find yourself in despite your plans. Tomorrow I will take delivery of my very first Crypto miner. I investigated thoroughly until I found a system that will work the best for me. I am super excited about this and will let you all know how it goes. I'm happy for you. I wish I could share in your excitement too, but it's too complex for me to understand how beneficial it is. I have studied a bit more about the "mining" of cryptocurrency and it just seems so complex. I don't see how anyone can take so much valuable time and mental energy let alone invest their money into something so complex. I'd rather play the lottery. It's far more straight forward....lol.
