Awesome.

(and I :romance-heartbeating: your avatar, Rowan)

Thx! I almost don't want to post more because the username seems to go so well. I can't wait for Part2 on DVD to watch The Prince's Tale over and over and over.

Given she couldn't even complete her term as Alaskan governor this is good news, not that she had a snowball's chance in hell of winning. :clap:

Part of me is wondering if she was paid off.

She wouldn't have won the presidency but she may have gotten the vote for the GOP candidate. Hmmmm.

So glad! Not that it would have mattered, it seems at times that all the GOP candidates don't have much higher thinking, Palin would have fit right in...

True, and scary at the same time. I think an IQ test needs to be administered before entering politics...

That would leave no one to run unless you lower the standards quite a bit.

I can always dream of intelligent politicians at least. Since I know the reality will not match up with it. Since Palin isn't in the running, I hope she doesn't get to bored and decide to shoot another t.v. show, I watched one episode and fell asleep during it.

I'm disappointed. Palin as the GOP candidate would have assured an Obama re-election.

This. Now we'll just have to listen to her grating voice to no good purpose.

This! Cannot stand the woman but she seems marginally less whacko than Perry who may actually be electable.

I said to my husband weeks ago that she was not going to run, but she sure was going to bilk her supporters our of $$$ for as long as she possibly could.

Suckers!

I am glad she is not running. I was actually a bit concerned. You never know what people will buy from the media. I think the media is pushing conservative crazies partly to make all conservatives look crazy, but they don't even consider that people will vote for this shit just because they are pissed off about the economy.

Europeans laugh at us enough. Let's not give them more fodder. Americans are for the most part wonderful, hardworking, caring people and I think we need some serious PR. Sarah Palin is not the type of image I want to present to the world.

Of course she isn't. She doesn't want to give up that Fox paycheck and living off the money she is getting from rich donors for her political PAC. She knows that if she were to run, a microscope would be on her finances.

I really didn't think she would run, so this didn't surprise me at all, but I guess a lot of her supporters are really disappointed, and she did lead them on.

I guess pretending to run probably made her a lot of money, and she can make even more if she works with Fox News.

Debates between her and Obama would have been pretty hilarious, though. Oh well

      Stupid loneliness!
      Kid 1 went back to college (yeah! But sad foe me, she stayed with me all summer. It was nice to start a new phase in our mother/daughter relationship)
      Zero prospects on dates. (Not that I have tried online dating, scared of that but I have reached put to a new group at church, etc.
      I asked a friend to go to dinner the other night so I wasn't eating alone, again. The friend had plans, all my friends always have plans. I see stuff on social media, I'm never invited. I'm single, I'm the 3rd or 5th wheel.
      My one parent friend at kid 2's fall sport won't be there because their daughter made varsity (Yeah for her!!! Seriously happy for her. Sad for me for another sport I basically sit alone, did that majority of spring and summer sporting events.)
      And now I'm crying as my mom told me 2 different funny stores that former teachers remembered about my twin. Both stories were about how they got a crack out of my twin's antics (my parents went to a funeral today and saw former colleagues). Teachers remember me (after all I was a twin and teachers' kid) but none would have memorable stories of me. 
      I feel invisible. 
      Don't worry, this will pass,  it always does. I just need a pity party for a few days. I'm not in anyway going to harm myself. As lonely as I am, I have a very full life I (usually) love. I just needed to vent and cry for a moment. 
      If you are still reading this, thanks Fjer. 😊

      Absolutely awful about the fires on Maui. In 2019, I stayed in Lahaina. I liked to sit on the sea wall, which is the only structure left now, and watch the water. People are receiving help, but many had to leave pets. Please donate to the Maui Humane Society, which is leading efforts to find, treat, and reunite pets.

      Nebraska’s new football coach, who is involved in an organization called Man Up Ministries, labels certain players “Alphas” and sometimes “extreme Alphas” and the local paper has a nice piece on why people objecting to the term “alpha male” are wrong and it has a “nice ring”. 🤮🤮🤮🤮
