Yes to T2T and I agree with Patty about local charities.  I don't give to charities that don't distribute at least 90% to the need.  St. Jude's Children's Hospital is very good and Rotary is excellent.  I'm not a fan of Red Cross or The Salvation Army because they have very high overhead.  Samaritans Purse is a better choice than Red Cross or Salvation Army.  Most charities permit you to "designate" where you want the donation to go.

Lester and Frank:  "Well, I've never been to Spain, but I kinda like the Music." and...."I've never been to England, but I kinda like the Beatles."

Not much of a traveler anymore.

Hi Jim, have you ever been to Needles?  And don't say, "No, but I've been stuck with one!"

Frank Wiley

Since we're recognizing lyrics of songs I just heard my favorite Senator, John Kennedy use a Lyric of a song in a hysterical way.  He was talking about the Democrats reaction to Trump's actions in policing D.C. and he said they are having their, "19th Nervous Breakdown!"  God, I Love Him!

THEIR 19 TH NERVOUS BREAKDOWN THIS WEEK!!!!!

Patty Meyers (Anderson)

I forgot about Samaritans Purse, I do give to them.

Frank Wiley

I'm getting a kick out of all these Dems screaming about Trump's criticism of Jerome Powell and the Federal Reserve.  The Dems insist that The Fed needs to be independent.  Remember in 2021/22 when inflation went from 2+% to 9+% and Janet Yellen (Biden Treasury Secretary) came out with the talking point that inflation was transitory and immediately after Jerome Powell came out with the exact same talking point.  Both of them came out shortly afterwards and said they were sorry they used the transitory term.  Powell's transitory talking point didn't sound independent to me!

Lester Cox

Forgot about Samaritan's Purse. We donate to them as well. I also have a couple little nieces that I divert state income tax funds to help pay for their private schooling where they still say the pledge of allegiance and respect the flag and don't have CNN teaching civics classes. Also, local St Mary's food bank. One year, we had a huge year and gave over $40K to Make a Wish Foundation. That triggered an audit by the IRS. No good deed goes unpunished as they say.

Back in 2008-2010 I was doing Evictions even in Needles, Ca.  and one afternoon the Law Firm which I did the Evictions for called me and asked me to help them out by doing several cases in Needles. I told them to send them over and I could do them on that Court's 5 PM Calendar, but that they needed to make sure that I got all of them done, because my Price was going to be much higher very soon. The woman on the line was shocked, and I had noted that she had a very much "All Business Attitude" because she was very Serious all the time. So, she asked me what she needed to tell the two attorneys she worked for why Michael Joel Kelly's price was going up. I explained  to  her that I had just obtained my Doctorate in Accupuncture and so the Cost of my appearing in Needles had to match my newly obtained Expertise. Only a Genius with an IQ over 175 will understand this.

Hey, Lefty!  

Happy International Left Handers Day!

Frank Wiley

Since there's a National Left Handers Day, I'm wondering why there isn't a National Right Handers Day, or a National Ambidextrous Day?  Life is so unfair!                  Many Democrats are claiming that crime isn't a problem in D.C. including the idiot Mayor.  Well, a poll just came out that 65% of the D.C. residents say crime is a problem!  Remember, 90% of the residents are Democrats!!

Lester Cox

Frank, come on now. Schumer says crime is no problem and he would never try to mislead you. Of course he has a heavily armed security detail with him. It only continues to prove, whatever Trump is in favor of, they will find fault and be against. I only hope voters remember all this when they vote. I doubt they will. 

DeWitt Bacon

Frank, of course, many democrats would like to see the crime rate lowered in D.C. What they hate is seeing Trump doing it.

Frank Wiley

Have you seen the video of the guy in D.C. yelling at the law enforcement over the crackdown and totally losing control, throwing his Submarine Sandwich at one of the officers, and take off running?  Well, they caught him, arrested him, and charged him with assaulting a law enforcement officer.  I hope that every meal in jail/ prison that they put the Subway menu on his prison food tray!  Of course the Democrats will say that would be "cruel and unusual punishment".

David Rainwater

At least he didn't spray mace in their faces or try to spear them.  I guess he wan't on a righteous mission, and so can't be forgiven for a fit of anger.

Frank Wiley

I would never throw food at my Wife or my Family, or my friends, or for that matter anyone.  And I certainly wouldn't throw food at a Law Enforcement Officer who has been put in a stressful situation where crime is out of control and tensions are high.  I don't know what punishment this guy is going to get but I bet they will make an example of him.  We have coddled criminals too long  and that's why some cities are on the verge of collapse.  Washington D.C. is 69.3 sq.Miles and had 187 Homicides last year.  Phoenix is 517 sq. Miles (8 times larger) and had 140 Homicides last year 20% less.  

Michael Kelly

The Guy who threw the Submarine Sandwich at a Law Enforcement Officer is a Federal Employee at the Justice Department, or was one when he threw the Sandwich, not so now according to Pam Bondi. Its alright all you ICE Haters, he can get a so so Compensation Attorney and probably get off with a Disability Retirement for being a Mental Case, and start a Second Career as a Talk Show Host, like replacing Jimmy Kemel or some other smatr ass.

It is great to be Left Handed, and have a National Left Handers day, I was litigatinig a case on my day trying to keep a 30 year old Father from getting overnight Custody Visits with his 6 month daughter, because he is a Stud in Porn Movies, to which he admitted, but said to the Comisioner he did not get paid for doing. So that makes it okay in California, a leader in progressive thinking in the USA. Just Think, instead of Litigating against Studly getting Custody visits with a 6 month old girl, I could have been using my National LEfties Day trying to invent a left Handers Cah Opener. 

Have a good weekend, while we all watch the News to see how good Trump is at negotiating a real Cease Fire with that Halcyon Figure of Peace and Honesty Vladimir Putiin. I have my Doubts, Leopards don't change their Spots.

Frank Wiley

I thought the Trump-Putin get together was way to friendly but I did like the B-2 flyover.  Putin suggested Trump come to Russia for the next meeting.  I hope Trump isn't dumb enough to do that.  I want Trump to be firm because I know Putin knows he's on thin ice.  I bet when Trump put the high tariffs on India, India told Putin they were done with his oil, and without India as a buyer Russia is financially ruined and that's why Putin rushed into requesting yesterdays meeting.

REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE

I need someone to brush their teeth with me because 9 out of 10 dentists say brushing alone won't prevent tooth decay.

No weirdos, please.

Frank Wiley

I see that now Oklahoma will require Teachers that want to come Teach there from New York and California to promise they are American First.  David Rainwater, didn't you move there recently?

David Rainwater

Frank: I did...and it's a hell-hole .  Actually, Oklahoma is full of nice folks just trying to live their lives the best they can.  Is that not the case in your state?

Frank Wiley

Yes David, and I bet you're enjoying the benefit of living in a Republican led State where the cost of living is 9% lower than the National average after moving from a Democrat led State that was 16% higher than the National Average?

Frank Wiley

I'm finding it hilarious that most of the Democrats and their "owned" Left Wing Media are all criticizing Trump for trying to end the War in Ukraine.  The reason I find it hilarious is because 3 years ago when Putin was building an invasion Army on the Ukrainian border and the halfwit, piece of dog crap President was asked what we would do if Putin attacked, Lyin Biden answered that it depended if it was just a "minor incursion".  It's a miracle after that, the Open Border, and Afghanistan that we even have a Country.  Can you imagine what our European Allies thought, after watching Hitler March across Europe, when Biden said a "minor incursion" would be Okay?

Frank Wiley

Hi Patty, Just to let you know, I do read your daily messages on our Home Page.  When I went to sleep last night it was Monday and I woke up and it is Friday.  Damn, that week went fast!
