I'll be honest... I never did like Trump. I didn't vote for him... I voted 3rd party... (Yeah I know I'm stupid) But I will give Trump a chance... Maybe he won't be so bad...

You took part in the process.
That's all that matters.

PG is correct; the most important thing is that you actually exercised your franchise. That you didn't vote for the candidate that eventually won is always a bit of a letdown, but at least you took part.

I was watching the utter morons - excuse me, I meant protesters of course - in Portland last night and was somewhat slack-jawed when several of them announced they didn't even vote, but still had their knickers in knots because their candidate didn't win! Too freaking lazy to bother going to the polls, but perfectly energized to join a damned riot. Their parents must be so very proud of the job they did raising this mob of self-absorbed snowflakes! :hammer:

I can think of a few things that will tilt my skin, but rumples aren't one of them.

Damn, Grey ... that really IS random! :yum::yum::yum:

Then he made the best of his way off, while the nurse laughed and the baby crowed; and all the court jeered at him for having had so much trouble for nothing and said, ’We wish you a very good morning, and a merry feast, Mr RUMPLESTILTSKIN!

Did you know every can of Campbell's Chicken Noodle soup has exactly 216 noodles in it. They measure out to 32'. :)

I finally got the chance to run across two of our former forum friends (those who are more of a liberal leaning).
I know they supported Bernie Sanders and feel bad that things didn't turn out as they'd have hoped.
Seriously, I do.
This election has caused heartache for many, but joy for some.
It's understood.

:smile:

The uncontested absurdities of today are the accepted slogans of tomorrow. They come to be accepted by degrees, by precedent, by implication, by erosion, by default, by dint of constant pressure on one side and constant retreat on the other - until the day when they are suddenly declared to be the country’s official ideology. ~ Ayn Rand

Discovering your shortcomings isn't about accepting and learning to live with them, it's about accepting and learning to overcome them.

Dollar Tree today were asking shoppers for a donation of $1.00 at the cashier's check out to go to Operation Homefront.
I can't believe how many people said no, or not today.
It's a DOLLAR people. 100 cents.
sheesh!
For that donation, you got to pick out a toy from a basket, albeit a cheap one... for a military family in need.

Perhaps should have put this in rants and raves?
In any case.. [/rant]

Hmm I went to school with Mark Delligatti, and his younger brother Greg. Have to wonder if they are related to Michael.

As for the point of sale donations .....i do not like them. Give me an option to donate somewhere in the store but to be put on the spot at the point of sale in front of all the other customers in line as to whether to donate or not seems out of line for any business. Maybe those are regular shoppers and they already gave multiple times or there could be plenty of other reasons to decline.

what if these people had already given much more to operation homefront? Or they live on a fixed income? I certainly would not like to have an aisle full of people standing behind me wondering why I did not give a dollar to a worthy cause. Dollar Tree should be ashamed by the way they handled this. :hammer:
