this is another chapter or period of time in the massive story of Pluto since 2008. Another major spike if you will.
This won't be unexpected at all; this will be another spike in the story of those that won't/can't
deal with the long term fixes that are necessary.

Many will do great during this time; others won't, but they won't be surprising anyone.

Will be back home, at high school reunion. Can't discuss politics TOO much, as some class mates 'like' rmoney, but will try to attract some to Wayne Powell.


And won't drive as party's at hotel, so not concerned about road safety!

It was my husband's fiftieth reunion. Since we went to the same school, I knew many of the people. There was an old friend, who has remained a close girlfriend. There was an old boyfriend, too.

It was wonderful to see everyone. I even got a chance to clear up a couple of old misunderstandings. It was nothing major, but kids are sensitive. Talking about things as adults makes a difference. We both went home with great feelings and memories.

My son is getting married Saturday the 29th. I hope that is a good day for a wedding!

What do you predict it might be?

SUPER kinky sex tape?
Open exposure of sex abuse cartel? (Thinking Sandusky--Aquarian/Uranus)
Financial/banking collapse or exposure of wrongdoing by powerful?
Electrical grid catastrophe?
Some freak volcanic/geyser eruption in an unexpected area?
I hope NOT a nuclear "accident"?


Personally, I'm hoping for a SUPER kinky sex tape!

It seems the Republicans have finally found that voter fraud they've been looking for so hard, in Florida. What started out to be one county, has now spread state wide. GREAT NEWS, they found it!!! Wait, there's just one little problem...it was REPUBLICAN voter fraud! In the famous words of Rick Perry..."OOPS"...

Yes, she has admitted that his mental well being is her biggest concern about him. She has no doubt about his abilities...just his mental health.

that there is already some cobwebs in Mitt's attic that are dulling something, or lots of things...sometimes he looks like he has "crazy eyes" when he's in an interview and it seems he gets confused easily...Some of the things he says, and the way he says them seems odd. I get that astrologically he's socially inept, but it seems it's more than just that. I don't know, but it seems like there's some sort of deterioration already going on. I keep telling my husband that I really think that he is mentally "off". And now his wife mentions it..very suspicious.

Sun Sep 30, 2012, 07:35 AM

have linked his combined speaking, overall look and gait with dementia. The thing is, we tend to think of early and mid-dementia with Reagan's quiet, kindly look. But many dementia patients become paranoid/fearful and many others become violent.

So if they're correct, it may be that Romney is taking the less desirable path (to the PTB that wanted someone they could control to push the buttons they order) they may be sensing something they fear as well. Hence the switch to plan B, better off with Obama in place and move the money to Congress to obstruct for another 4 years.

I didn't even associate his "gait" with it too. I have said so many times, why does he walk so funny?? I thought it was just me and maybe no one else was noticing and maybe it wasn't that weird. But I knew something seemed strange about the way he walks.

And as far as having dementia...my beloved Mom was diagnosed with it about 3 years ago when she was only 66. The way hers started out was subtle but you could just tell that something was going on. She only made it to age 69 when she passed this past February. We normally don't think of people in their 60's as having dementia, alzheimers or any other mental debilitating diseases. But it does happen, and I've seen it first hand. I get the same vibe when I watch Mitt in action.

was that it brought to mind a frightened five year old expecting to be punished. I also noticed that when he is speaking at a gathering he turns to the people behind him using a short side stepping circle. He always looks tentative and unsure. Just MHO.

My understanding is that early onset also progresses much faster, at least with alzheimers. Maybe with other forms of dementia too.

With Mitt, any of the 3 signs I mentioned by themselves could be a million different things. Back issues, a hernia, nervous in front of strangers (Lemon. Wet. Good. Trees just the right height.), Ann projecting her own weaknesses onto him or trying (and failing) to appear to be a strong helpmate to him.

In combination, they suggest going on with his brain function.

She's worried about his mental state should he be elected.

There's always been something about him and Ann that struck me as vaguely familiar, and now that you bring up the dementia thing, I know what it is. Do you remember how close Ronnie and Nancy Reagan were? People accused her of controlling him because she was always at his side, and it appeared he did very little without her inclusion/approval. I believe few people knew that he was in the early stages of alzheimer's at the time. This is so similar in that not only does she seem to take charge in most interviews they do together, but in fact he also seems to defer to her often during these tandem interviews.

seekers out! They *want* those jobs! Unlike lazy, moocher Americans who expect a living wage and decent work conditions! for any who don't get my point .

Because that is really how they think. That we are lazy moochers because we don't appreciate a "choice" between starvation and being beaten for falling asleep while working 16 or 18 hour shifts, sharing a bathroom with 120 other people and sleeping in dormitories in exchange for a pittance.
