@@LipstickLady, I'm the one who doesn't know The Lion King. It'll take me a while to look into it and understand your post.

Now I might piss some peeps off but.....As I have always said the majority votes don't count for much. Clinton won the common people votes but...Trump won because of the electorial votes. Does this make anyone else wonder?

All I can think about is this movie, if you haven't seen it you MUST!

Idiocracy! I loved that movie. We joked a couple of months ago that the director had no clue he was filming a documentary.

At least we have four years of funny Trump memes to look forward to.

It's called "popular vote." The common people voted for the trump thing. What's to wonder? There's been talk for decades about dismantling the electoral college in favor of the popular vote.

At least we have four years of funny Trump memes to look forward to.

You may be losing weight quite nicely, but you fall short on the cold comfort scale. One meme on any subject may be amusing, maybe two can as well. Three become tedious. Beyond that would be the same as picking lint from your navel. If you choose to sit on your butt doing nothing, you'll get flabby in mind and spirit.

Well, I'm a Libertarian so my hope is that more and more people will realize that the result we had this election was the direct result of the duopoly that forces people into a "one or the other" mindset. We need more choices and in this day and age, with information at our fingertips and sites like isidewith.com to help us narrow the field, there is no reason we should be stuck in this two-party mindset. Except that Americans just seem to love rooting for teams.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
