Dawn: I thought you were adequate. Giles: And the accolades keep pouring in. I'd best take my leave before my head swells any larger. Good night.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm so sorry, Sheryl.

The status is NOT quo.

Sending love, Sheryl. It's so hard.

Condolences Sheryl.

I made it (along with a huge number of other seattlites) to Reno! It is a big (800 people!) dance convention and the 50th anniversary gay rodeo. So lots of country gays here now. I made it to about 12:30 dancing but although I could probably stay away a while, my tummy is a bit unhappy and my feet hurt, so best to save some for tomorrow (and try to sleep in a bit!)

Is it any surprise that the administration would not issue congratulations to Machado? After the selection of María Corina Machado was announced, the White House communications director, Steven Cheung, said, “The Nobel Committee proved they place politics over peace.” Personally, I hope it was a triple slap in the face to choose a Venezuelan woman. Also, of course, she actually deserves acknowledgement for her efforts.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

She supports Trump and wants him to start a war in Venezuela. So, while happy he did not get it, it’s a not great selection.

Yes, I get that, but still a more legit choice than Trump. The choice to bomb Venezuelan boats is some super scary stuff.
