BOO! Now that I’ve got your attention, it’s of course Halloween tonight and I’d love to see our fellow Voxers’ costumes so we are hosting Vox tonight. We do get a good deal of trick-or-treaters at our house so I may have to pop away here and there tonight but I will be here onVox for the most part…with the World Series game muted in the background! Hope the Dodgers get a treat instead of a trick tonight! See you soon!

AdLib2 hours ago

Hey CL! How are you doing tonight?

AdLiban hour ago

Really? Weget a good deal of trick or treaters.

AdLiban hour ago

I never know how many so I don’t give out as many candies early on but the kiddies coming later get more.

AdLiban hour ago

Hey PPO!

I’m OK. Just that. Not much more. I do want to bring to your attention a work of fiction that resonates with our ‘water plan’ issues. My fave author, Louise Penny, has a work of fiction that suddenly bears truth. I recommend you grab it from the library if you don’t read her. “The Black Wolf”. Just out. Chapter 22 on is about what actually IS happening now even though she wrote it last year when it was not. And it involves revisiting our plan.

Interesting developments in UK about the Andrew once known as Prince.

pinkpantheroz

44 minutes ago

Lovely to be here with all three of you. Missed you even though I more or less HAD to.

choicelady

44 minutes ago

How’s going PPO?

twilson117

44 minutes ago

CL good to see you

twilson117

43 minutes ago

CL – Wow! I definitely will check it out. And making it even more important, the mass amounts of water being gobbled up by all these AI data centers.

AdLib43 minutes ago

PPO – that was a shocker, Not Prince Andrew.

choicelady

43 minutes ago

You were missed, CL.

AdLib43 minutes ago

Ad – absolutely

choicelady

43 minutes ago

CL – Best headline on that, “The Andrew Formerly Known As Prince”.

AdLib43 minutes ago

Happy that October is done and gone. Looking forward to summer. Doc gave me clean bill of health, amost!

pinkpantheroz

42 minutes ago

Winter is coming

twilson117

42 minutes ago

PPO – Sorry, didn’t see that you nailed that headline first!

AdLib42 minutes ago

Well, I missed all of you, but needs must. This has been hard. My ex died Oct.l 29 2023. My older BIL Oct. 27, 2024. Now my younger BIL Oct. 25 2025. I am cancelling October 2026 just so you know.

choicelady

42 minutes ago

PPO – that is GREAT news! I have a few “tweaks” but every GOOD report is worth hanging onto.

choicelady

42 minutes ago

CL – You’ve got my vote on that, maybe just keeping Halloween night?

AdLib41 minutes ago

Ad – That is just a GREAT line about Andrew!

choicelady

41 minutes ago

PPO – Great to hear!

AdLib41 minutes ago

I might keep Halloween. But this progression of loss sucks.

choicelady

41 minutes ago

CL – Yes, it was anewspaper headline, forget which paper.

AdLib41 minutes ago

CL, I’m the same. My lady Ferige died 12th, Wedding anni. 22nd, her b’day 27th.

pinkpantheroz

The beauty of living in a complex is no doorbell riging for T&T

twilson117

40 minutes ago

Hi TW – how has the “leaf peeping season” been in MA this year? My fave time, fave place. Hope it’s been good for you.

choicelady

40 minutes ago

TW – Aw but we enjoy it. So many fun costumes and the very little ones look so sweet.

AdLib40 minutes ago

TW, Amen to that!

pinkpantheroz

40 minutes ago

So did you see that two judges are or will order Trump to fund SNAP?

AdLib39 minutes ago

PPO – OMG. We share that sad time in October. It has always been my favorite month. Now it’s just sad, and adding Fergie in makes it sadder. I am so sorry.

choicelady

39 minutes ago

CL honestly leaf watching is wasted on me I’ve had my head down doing a lot of reading but when I do look up it is a sight to see.

twilson117

38 minutes ago

Ad – I sure hope the SNAP restoration works. Damn. FOOD!!!

choicelady

38 minutes ago

I don’t know how anyone can now vote GOP.

pinkpantheroz

38 minutes ago

PPO good to hear you got a clean bill of health from your Doc

twilson117

37 minutes ago

TW – you don’t have to be one who drives around to get the benefits of the season. It’s just a gift. Enjoy!

choicelady

37 minutes ago

I will never look at October the same way.

AdLib37 minutes ago

CL I do when I go out.

twilson117

37 minutes ago

Which poet wrote, “April is the cruelest month” because nope. It’s not.

choicelady

37 minutes ago

TW – I’m so glad. I yearn to move back to MA, but likelihood is I will live out my days here.

choicelady

36 minutes ago

NYT has an article on early voting showing Dems looking good in VA, PA, and NY. And a poll came out today that Prop 50 here in Cali, to redistrict to give Dems 5 seats here to cancel out TX, has 60% support in polling.

AdLib36 minutes ago

I see ‘Dr.’ Phil is going the way of The Pillow Guy. Good!

pinkpantheroz

36 minutes ago

Ad – I read Darryl Issa’s whine about how Prop 50 is so mean to him. And I replied that he’d been so indifferent to us we really don’t care.

choicelady

35 minutes ago

CL I sort look at from the view one is where they are suppose to be I’m here because I had to get out of Syracuse

twilson117

35 minutes ago

PPO – couldn’t happen to a better MAGA.

choicelady

35 minutes ago

CL hearing somone like Isssa complaining is laughable

twilson117

34 minutes ago

TW – my brief experience w Syracuse makes me get that. And I say that as one who lived in Buffalo.

choicelady

34 minutes ago

CL = Did you see the video of Mike Johnson on CNN saying the quiet part loudly, that they want to starve people to force Dems to let them slash ACA insurance for millions. They were and are idiots, thinking they could blame Dems for the shutdown instead of their refusal to negotiate and stop the killing of healthcare for 25 million Americans.

AdLib34 minutes ago

Ad – they should look at the polling that totally blames the GOP for this crap.

choicelady

33 minutes ago

Karma coming home to roost all over the place. If there were ever an incentive to GOTV, the last year has to be the trigger.

pinkpantheroz

33 minutes ago

CL Yes good ole Buffalo more snow than you ever want to see although ‘cuse would give it a run for it’s money back in the day

twilson117

33 minutes ago

I do think people will be sensible in 2026 and that Trump, being REALLY incompetent at even BEING evil will not be able to stop elections.

choicelady

32 minutes ago

What is about rich people who blame the poor for everything?

twilson117

32 minutes ago

CL – The polling shows only Repubs blaming Dems, Whenever i see polling around 33% against Dems, that’s just the Repubs. 50% more Americans blame Repubs, rightly!

AdLib32 minutes ago

Ad as we’ve discussed on this forum Repugs always show you who they are.

twilson117

31 minutes ago

PPO how is the saling going?

twilson117

31 minutes ago

TW – if you live north of Lackawanna, you really don’t get the snow that Syracuse got full tilt. The “Southtowns” get blasted, but the city? Not as much. Early winter we could stand downtown on Washington St. and WATCH it snow in the South while not getting a flake. WHEN we got it – yikes! But it was never as much.

choicelady

31 minutes ago

CL – If Prop 50 throws Issa out of the House, it will be remembered forever.

AdLib31 minutes ago

Ad – for the removal of Issa alone may we be truly thankful.

choicelady

30 minutes ago

Ad – exactly.

choicelady

30 minutes ago

CL as bad as we would get it in Cuse, Watertown was twice as worse

twilson117

29 minutes ago

TW, very well, thanks, We messed up a bit last week and only finished 12th out of 18. We’re usually in the top 5. I suppose having a man go overboard does slow one down!

pinkpantheroz

29 minutes ago

TW – that is the ONE place, Watertown, I would never live.

choicelady

29 minutes ago

PPO – Man overboard!!! I hope you scooped him up OK???

choicelady

29 minutes ago

PPO don’t just hate when that happens

twilson117

29 minutes ago

I hope it wasn’t YOU!

choicelady

And while millions of Americans are being hurt by Trump and this shutdown, the SOB is flaunting photos of the remodled Lincoln Bathroom and tore down the East Wing to build a $300 million ballroom. Marie Antoinette has to be spinning in her grave and asking herself, “And they chopped my head off just for cake?”

AdLib28 minutes ago

, Eventually, after we dropped the spinnaker and went back to get him. If we had been leading we’d have let him bob around a bit till we finished.

pinkpantheroz

28 minutes ago

Ad – he is going to MAL this weekend. I’m SERIOUSLY wondering if it’s to die in bed. SERIOUSLY/.

choicelady

28 minutes ago

Yes, as long as you weren’t the one overboard, PPO!

AdLib28 minutes ago

PPO – Well, of course. One has to have principles…

choicelady

27 minutes ago

PPO bob around until you finished, now that is dedication and putting things is focus

twilson117

26 minutes ago

Ad, no I’m firmly ensconced in the cockpit, either on the Wheel or the mainsheet. The foredeck is verboten to us crinklies!

pinkpantheroz

26 minutes ago

I never get death. I remember Jackie Kennedy went for a walk in Central Park the day before she died of brain cancer. My BIL was robust and, while weaker than usual, looked fine. 9 days later? Gone. So I think Trump may be on his last journey home.

choicelady

26 minutes ago

TW – sailors have their standards.

choicelady

25 minutes ago

CL – Imentioned to TW, whenever anyone says the phrase, “Is he dead yet?”, everyone knows who they’re talking about. Weird, huh?

AdLib23 minutes ago

CL the Devil is waiting for him with a big grin on his face

twilson117

23 minutes ago

PPO – That is a damn good policy!

AdLib23 minutes ago

I can’t stay long. Since our trip to OR to see Greg’s brother, and then his death, neither of us can get enough sleep. Imagine that. We DO sleep. It’s never enough. We go back up mid Nov. for the memorial. Then, maybe, we’ll be OK. But I punk out quickly.

choicelady

22 minutes ago

TW – Gee, I thought the Devil quit when Trump arrived. Couldn’t take the competition. Hope you’re correct!

choicelady

22 minutes ago

CL – There is no rhyme or reason to it but unfortunately, evil people generally seem to live longer for some reason. Unless they’ve been fast food eating drug addicts who scream and lie constantly. blood pressure or heart disease has got to be taking Trump down.

AdLib21 minutes ago

Ad – I know on Bluesky everyone gets who it is – “Is he dead yet” needs NO translation.

choicelady

21 minutes ago

I normally don’t wish death on anyone, but, I feel the whole World will be thankful when it happens. The Devil will have him refurbishing the place in no time

pinkpantheroz

20 minutes ago

Ad – hospice nurses I’ve know said the ones who hang in longest are nasty. “Too mean to die”.

choicelady

20 minutes ago

CL – Just glad you could make it for however long tonight.

AdLib20 minutes ago

PPO – there are gong to be gilt room and marble baths in Hell?

choicelady

20 minutes ago

CL – Why do you think that is for nasty people?

AdLib19 minutes ago

No, Extra anal probes and flamethrowers

pinkpantheroz

19 minutes ago

Ad – do grab those chapters. It’s bone chilling, and it makes me know your plans actually have global significance.

choicelady

19 minutes ago

How is Murph these days?

pinkpantheroz

18 minutes ago

CL – I absolutely will read it! This is urgent.

AdLib18 minutes ago

Hope he reads the entry sign ‘abandon all hope ye who enter here ‘

twilson117

18 minutes ago

Well, the docs SAY the people living longest always are those with a cause, a vision. What they don’t unpack is that it doesnt’ always have to be POSITIVE.

choicelady

18 minutes ago

Murph was here two weeks ago, he was doing okay and said that with the church heading up the homeless effort, they are having some success.

AdLib18 minutes ago

Good one, Ad.

pinkpantheroz

17 minutes ago

TW – I want him to suffer, to be humiliated, to understand what he’s done.

choicelady

17 minutes ago

What does it mean that Trump said a couple weeks ago that he doesn’t think he’s getting into Heaven?

AdLib17 minutes ago

Ad – good to know about Murph. I’ll write to him.

choicelady

17 minutes ago

Ad, maybe even Hell has standards.

pinkpantheroz

17 minutes ago

CL many do but the man has no shame no conscience

twilson117

16 minutes ago

But Murph is very disappointed his effort has been stopped.

AdLib16 minutes ago

Ad – I don’t know and don’t care. He never will reform. What happens to him happens. So be it.

choicelady

16 minutes ago

Tw – no. NO shame or conscience.

choicelady

16 minutes ago

Ad – I will talk to him. There are ways around the rejection.

choicelady

16 minutes ago

PPO – South Park has multiple episodes with Satan being disgusted with Trump. I kind of think that would be on the money.

AdLib15 minutes ago

Trump is by far the stupidest president this country has ever had

twilson117

15 minutes ago

Ad – i agree the Devil mat have met his match.

choicelady

15 minutes ago

And Trump admitting he can’t run for a 3rd term? I think that at the same time he’s feeling like a dictator, he’s also seeing the end of it all coming.

AdLib15 minutes ago

I think he’s been told he’s dying. He acts like someone NO LONGER in denial.

choicelady

14 minutes ago

If Trump does survive past this term, I can imagine people, governments, and organizations all coming for him from every direction. Once the dictator is “deposed”, he has no friends.

AdLib13 minutes ago

Rumors on Bluesky are that his granddaughter said it’s 6 months, and that was a month ago.

choicelady

13 minutes ago

Ad everything he is doing now is what dictators do. For then moment the court is giving into him at least the lower courts

twilson117

13 minutes ago

I will just wish him gone. What comes to him after that is not my business.

choicelady

12 minutes ago

CL – That makes a lot of sense. For everyone’s sake, I hope the Angel of Death grabs him by the…you know.

AdLib12 minutes ago

Perhaps he and Andrew could do the honourable thing and retire to the Library with a pistol. Oh, who am I kidding???

pinkpantheroz

12 minutes ago

Well his father live to 90 but was if full on dementa toward the end

twilson117

12 minutes ago

PPO – Yes, I think “honor” is not in their lexicon.

choicelady

12 minutes ago

Ad, Harvey Weinstein has gangrene there! Karma

pinkpantheroz

11 minutes ago

TW – it’s not always the years but the status of the disease that matters. His is full on. He has months, not years.

choicelady

11 minutes ago

TW – Very true but the courts are preventing him from going Full Dictator.

AdLib11 minutes ago

PPO – couldn’t wish it on a more deserving guy.

choicelady

11 minutes ago

PPO – These monsters are the last ones to want their lives to be over. So many crimes left to commit.

AdLib10 minutes ago

CL agree his decline is obvious and his flunkies know it in my opinion and JD is praying for things to speed up

twilson117

10 minutes ago

Ad yes for now, the SC is the problem

twilson117

9 minutes ago

OK folks – LOVE seeing you. Already punking out. Hoping to get stronger as days go on, but it’s uphill work. Take care, don’t fall overboard, and stay true to the truth. It will set us free. Hugs to three of my favorite people!!! Hope to see you next Friday!
