Yes I liked them too. Doris passed away when when the girls were still pretty young if cancer I believe. She loves her grandma and she’s bring her and my daughter to the shows and pick them out of the crowd saying that’s her granddaughter and name and her friend and name and the crowed greeted them kindly. I was more of a private person.Ibhsd offered myself yrs back to make records but passed over nursing. I was more of their guardian watching out for them. They were beautiful girls and people were already preying on them. I didn’t even know who her grandma was at first till after talking them out I asked her if she wanted to stay the night or not and she said she can’t because her grandma was playing at the auditorium that night. I asked her, who’s your grandma? She said her name and I said the Shirelles!?!!!! She wanted my daughter to go and I said yes definitely. You can listen to some of the music your mom listened to back when. La Tosh for short said you listened to my grandma? I told her yes everyone did.

I still listen to vinyl in my office and sometimes pull out the Shirelles lp of their biggest hits.
some other big name from that era got into trouble with hard drugs and was basically homeless but the lead singer from Shirelles let him live with her in California as I recall. Perhaps Doris Coley was the lead singer at the time.
my favorite song is the Carole King song “Will you love me tomorrow?”

i love Carole King singing the song

You’re ringing my memory bell. Soldier Boy was a favorite song of mine when it was out and playing on AM Top 40 radio. I had the 45. Might still be around somewhere.

“I’m not anti-crypto if it’s actually backed by something tangible. I don’t see how Bitcoin could compete with a gold or silver backed coin.”
Absolutely agree! Having said that BTC has sure been kicking our ass!
Texas is moving in the right direction.

I wish I’d backed up my computer before microsot’s update! Now it’s going to take a LOT of work to set things right. I guess I’m just more of a seat of the pants user.
I applaud your diligence!
Got a surprise visit today.
From the granddaughter of Doris Jackson, one of the originals in the group Shirelles ie. Soldier Boy, Known for the song Dedicated to the one I Love. She’s mixed race her husband white. She was my youngest daughter best friend since they were 7 and they’d go to the auditorium together when Doris was singing. Was there with her and her family when she had her first child
She was on the anti Trump train believing all the propaganda so I haven’t talked to her in awhile because I saw her as a vulnerable kid even though grown up.
Anyways she came to see me today brought a couple of her kids to tell me she loved me and to tell me she voted for Trump. A lot of the young weren’t fooled this time around, was glad to see her, and brings me more hope for the future the swamp is out to destroy, their waking up.

Well I use Duck Duck Go and have been happy with it. I suspect Safari runs in the background collecting information but there is only so much I can do.
when my family gave me my first ipad I thought I would seldom to never use. Now I seldom use the laptop only for QB or Office.
what can i say i love the ipad with apps for everything i do
belong to two digital libraries, do online puzzles, do charting with the Fidelity app.

Vaccines
I’m not sure about the immune system attacking your own kidney in reaction to the donor kidney and not all vaccines are made in China. I’d have to research that but you might find it interesting to find what he said they replaced chicken egg DNA with in Flu vaccines.
I had to laugh. Apparently some of the politicians must be getting a regular dose of them.

Doubt it is the Browser…I use Brave and have no issues…but I run Linux…….
Aurum thanks for that info
It must be the browser . I do not use Safari , but cannot get rid of it. I can delete it from the desktop , but it is still lurking in the background .

That’s a good idea from Texas. Hopefully it’ll pass. The House in TX. is heavy Republican but the Speaker is a RINO who votes with the Dems I believe. There was a big to do about it last year. Guessing he’s a globalist, so I wonder if it will pass. Good idea for all states actually, starve the Fed.
I’m not anti-crypto if it’s actually backed by something tangible. I don’t see how Bitcoin could compete with a gold or silver backed coin.
Speaking of Bitcoin, I thought for sure we’d be above $100K this weekend, but not yet.
FWIW…
Interesting article/review on Fauci Covid fraud from ZeroHedge.

a good double CHOPIN vodka martini from Wanka would have fixed that !!!!

One of the reasons I bought 3 Windows 8.1 os discs on ebay and load one on any new laptop and never update other than also loading about 8 files I need to make my Office, QB, and printer load and work.
btw I also buy two new flash drives every two years and backup monthly or more often.

I have never recovered from the emotional trauma when my laptop and my Western Digital back up drive failed simultaneously.

That sucks!
MS latest update really screwed up my files. Many are now unusable. Effers!
IPSO i guess it is an Apple iOS or Brave browser issue
This is what happens ;

I don’t seem to have that problem. Just other ones LOL
Looks like a good appointment …
Trump Taps COVID-Contrarian, Staunch Public Health Critic Makary For FDA
In another appointment with potential to shake up the federal health regime, Donald Trump on Friday nominated Dr. Martin Makary to lead the Food & Drug Administration. Makary, a Johns Hopkins University pancreatic surgeon and author of three New York Times bestsellers, has been critical of the government’s role in health care. The role requires Senate confirmation.
Declaring that the FDA has “lost the trust of Americans,” Trump said Makary will “course-correct and refocus the agency,” to include “properly evaluat[ing] harmful chemicals poisoning our nation’s food supply and drugs and biologics being given to our nation’s youth, so that we can finally address the childhood chronic disease epidemic.”
Makary grew to national notoriety as one of several highly-credentialed physicians who pushed back on many elements of the federal response to the Covid-19 pandemic. Testifying before Congress, Makary said:
“The greatest perpetrator of misinformation during the pandemic has been the United States government. Misinformation that Covid was spread through surface transmission, that vaccinated immunity was far greater than natural immunity…that myocarditis was more common after the infection than the vaccine…that young people benefit from a booster…”

BTW Does everyone have to scroll far down the window to see the media ?
…when controversial topics (according to the UN , just misinformation and disinformation) are posted here ?
Five Republican and two Demoncrat congressmen were all-in with the scam .
(some if not all , in corporate or private jets as is done at Davos WEF Meetings , creating a huge carbon footprint compared to larger more efficient commercial passenger flights).
I highly recommend watching this interview with Alex Newman
Newman has just attended the Anti-Trump ‘green’ COP 29 conference in Azerbyjan .
Just go to usawatchdog.com to find it .
Sorry , but it seems I am blocked from following links I receive in emails , and likely from placing the direct link to the interview . Apple strikes again , since I disagree with the global warming scam and had tried to publish a Keynote (think Powerpoint ) presentation on the need for more CO2 in the atmosphere for healthy plant growth ( including edible crops).
