Pete, I WISH I had a clue why it isn’t working for you. :o/. I found them in the gallery, click Show then Insert into Post and they loaded. The only things I can think to try are to dump your cache and do a cold reboot of your computer. I can tell you how if you use Firefox. One of my “usually works fine” things got all wonky and a techie told me to do that. It removed whatever had gotten corrupted and reloaded the original clean versions that had worked before. Chrissy P.S., I LOVE the Spongebob cartoon!! LOL

IKWYM about the “for adults” stuff. LOL My dds looooooved The Little Mermaid and watched it so often when they were young that we all had chunks of it memorized. One college break, our youngest went on a nostalgia binge, re-watching golden oldies, including TLM. I remember her repeatedly saying, “I don’t remember THAT!” LOL All those jokes they put in to keep the grown-ups amused went over her head when she was little. Remembering how shocked she was at some of the double entendres and by-play still makes me giggle. 🙂

My only coda to his remarks is to note that while there probably are whites who will never vote for a black, the reverse is also true. Ditto gender, creed and sexual orientation. In both directions and on all counts.
I am REALLY sick of people who don’t know me judging the condition of my heart, mind and soul based on which of two candidates I decide to vote for!
I really wish we could all get over JUDGING EACH OTHER and just focus on judging the CANDIDATES based on the issues and their characters, so we can each make the best choices we can.
If someone doesn’t understand why I back a candidate, they can ASK. Or read this blog. It’s not like I’m at all shy about saying! LOL

ITA the whole family deserved more. But he’s wrong that Obama signed his own name. They say he did, but when you see the letters side-by-side, it’s obvious a machine did it. NOBODY writes exactly the same every time.

Obama’s Top Ten Strategies for the Second Debate
by Keith Koffler on October 9, 2012, 5:45 pm
White House Dossier recently kidnapped Sen. John Kerry’s Bijon Frise and held it for ransom.
This morning, Kerry, the debate practice partner for President Obama, agreed in exchange for the dog to provide White House Dossier with the secret ten-point plan for Obama to perform better in the second debate with Gov. Mitt Romney than he did in the first.
White House Dossier still didn’t return the pooch.
Finally, after Kerry agreed never again to himself run for president – a decision supported by many Democrats – the dog was returned unharmed to the senator.
We give you now the top ten Obama strategies for succeeding in next Tuesday’s debate.
1. Cut the number of pre-debate doobies in half.
2. Eat a full stack of Michelle’s special “fired up and ready to go” pancakes slathered in “hope and change” syrup before the debate.
3. Take two of these:Presidential Strength No Doze
4. Replace Romney’s pre-debate Hershey bar with chocolate Ex-Lax.
5. Shout “Miss it!” when Romney is starting to speak.
6. Answer at least four questions in Haiku.
7. Stop using the teleprompter during debate rehearsels.
8. After every Romney answer, say, “That’s the stupidest thing I ever heard in my life!”
9. If stumped, ask for the moderator to spell the question.
10. Have Chinese food delivered during Romney’s closing statement

What they are really missing is that most women are past childbearing age-and we are the women who actually vote!
I just do not remember many young women, including me, being all that engaged with politics back in the day. We were too busy changing diapers and cleaning up little messes,(and snuggling).
But I will never forget how offended I was when HRC made a mockery of us stay at home Moms with her “I could have stayed home and baked cookies” statement. That got my attention and I swore I would never vote for her husband because I did not want to see someone like her in the white house. They won anyway, as we know, thanks to Ross Perot.
So I say to these demwits, keep trying to push this issue. It is going to finally hit home to young moms, and backfire big time.

My mother told me tonight that she is depressed. Her Woman’s Club had Mark Halperin, author of Game Change, as the weekly speaker. She said he was really pushing that book of his and she did not know about all the false stuff in there about Sarah. She said if she had known that she would never have gone to the meeting. She said he claimed to be non-partisan but nobody in her group believed that for a minute. The worst part is that he calmly and confidently told the ladies that he was certain that Obama would win re-election. She was ready to get out the sherry 2 hours early after that revelation.
I think I got her mad instead of sad, so she ought to be dialing all the ladies now to spread the word. They are the original tea party ladies – quite literally, as tea is still poured from a silver service at the meetings of this very large, and very old Woman’s Club.
