THIS N THAT

The green grapes we have been getting from Krogers for the past month are the best of the year.


Benjamin Harrison was the first President to have a Christmas tree in the White House - 1889.  Grover Cleveland was the first to have one in the White House lit by electric bulbs - 1894.
 

For the most part, my 10 grandchildren call me and refer to me as "grandpa".  That's fine, but now that I think about it, "grandfather" sounds so much more sophisticated.


There were 623,471 abortions recorded in the U.S. in 2016 (last yr reported). That's over 1,700 per day every day of the week; yes, one-thousand and seven hundred.  To the positive, this number is 2% lower than the year before.  Highest year this century - in 2007 there were 827,609.  God help us.


I would say that young girls who follow the President around could be called "Trumpettes".
