That Ann Curry more than likely DIDN'T do a 'happy dance' when she heard the news about Lauer! She's way to much of a class act for that!

The comments by Angela Lansbury where she says women must sometimes take the blame for sexual harassment for the way we dress.

when I read about Trump getting back on the Obama birth certificate witchhunt again ... geez, we have North Korea testing another missle and Trump is having to get on that obsession boat

Any and all news about Trump makes me scared.Thinking he was dropped on his head as a baby and it caused his mind to be uneven. (that was my nicest way of putting it so far, anybody notice I did not use the f word or any other special words this time when talking about Trump???? ) Just don't get used to it. Our president sickens me!

He is just a demented loon but a very dangerous one. He has the power to make our world even more treacherous. I am profoundly disapointed in Republicans in the Congress and Senate that want to hold onto their power so badly that they allow this behavior from him, without a word of reproach. The only ones that have said anything are those not seeking reelection in 2018.

Some of his Tweets are simply insane.

Disappointed me today? More like he revolts and disgusts me every single day.

Didn't get near done today what I had intended. Maybe next weekend

Thanks to all of you for your caring suggestions. Going to seriously look at the house-keeper one.

These yesterday were punk trees. I know I will call my neighbor to come over and be a watch guard when I get into trees larger than 16 to 17 inches in diameter.

And there are 6 or 8 I decided to back away from, hire some loggers. I do not think State Farm would cover rebuilding my entire home if I dropped one of these massive trees on it.

Off now to check on the "I've fallen and cannot get up" medical necklaces. Hoping for a bracelet model. Funny, I thought about that jewelry when I saw the timber rattlesnake several months ago. Copperheads usually only make a person very very sick and heard it is very painful but hunters have a healthy fear of the timber rattlers ... they are deadly.

Shakespeare’s Sonnets Are Banned In Texas Prisons. But Hitler’s ‘Mein Kampf’ Is Allowed.

Not that I would ban "Mein Kampf' perse, but to ban Shakespere's Sonnets?!

Monty Python’s ‘The Big Red Book,’ ‘Where’s Waldo’ and ‘Freakonomics’ are also banned.

The Texas prison system has a head-scratching list of banned — and permitted — reading material for its 150,000 inmates that bars Alice Walker’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel The Color Purple, but allows books extolling principles of the Ku Klux Klan.

A collection of Shakespeare’s sonnets (because it contains nude images of children), Monty Python’s The Big Red Book (nudity), Where’s Waldo (contains stickers), the economic theory book Freakonomics (may cause “offender disruption”) and 10,000 other books are not allowed. Adolf Hitler’s anti-Semitic screed Mein Kampf and two books written by former KKK grand wizard David Duke are perfectly acceptable. Nearly 250,000 titles are permitted within the prison system.

The twisted list turned up in an analysis of the reading material by The Dallas Morning News.

The logic can be confusing. Some books are banned by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice because officials fear heavy-duty bindings could be used to cache contraband. Content that describes how to make drugs, guns or explosives, and how to escape detection for criminal activity are also a no-go. Nudity and sexual images are also banned, which makes graphic novels like The Walking Dead prohibited. Atlases are banned because they could be used to plan an escape.

Regardless of the stated rules, “many of TDCJ’s censorship decisions are bizarre,” and some are downright “insidious” and “unconstitutional,” noted a report by the Texas Civil Rights Project in 2011. Banned books include many that are critical of the Texas prison system, the report stated.

The Color Purple is banned because it describes incest. As for Mein Kampf, it “doesn’t violate our rules,” TDCJ deputy chief of staff Jason Clark explained to the newspaper.

*If anyone here has read Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451, you should be quite alarmed with this story.

I would be disappointed if at least a smile didn't cross her face!
