Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Amazing pictures annie….Thank You !!
so good to see you ed! ♥️
aren’t we so happy tonight ♥️
Yes ma’am !!! Ecstatic !!!!!
Yes, ed
We all should all take a few days to just savor this victory, bask in the optimism, and give thanks. The left never gives up. The battles are surely right around the corner.
I don’t know if you ever read the Boston Globe – the articles are too painful to even contemplate, but the comments from the left wing lunatics have given me great joy!
Living in Boston I have taken great pleasure in wearing the MAGA hat, Trump tee shirts and anything with the American flag on it all week long.
The looks and comments from the wackos have me smiling and laughing all week, even more so since the official election results have been announced.
Life is so good right now to even consider reading the Globe but thank you… maybe it would even further brighten my really good mood !!!
Life is just so good all of a sudden. We can hopefully, in the words of Sundance, REALLY live our best lives !!!
ed
My brother maintains a subscription with the “Glob” for the sports page. I just get a kick out of reading the comments by the lefty wackadoodles.
Boston really is a lovely city – though I haven’t been there in 20+ years. I just love the aura of history you feel there.
My home is in a red area of AZ, but Tucson, the closest city, is a hotbed of liberalism due to the presence of the University of Arizona. We wear MAGA clothing and have Trump bumper stickers on our vehicles. Had some damage done to my truck, and occasionally someone gets in my face, but, I refuse to be cowed. And……it’s mostly fairly civil as so many “carry.” Tends to make people more polite.
So beautifully designed.
WOW!!! Thank you!!!
Another view of the church

BREAKING: Christian leaders call an emergency meeting to discuss the possibility that the rapture has already occurred as 15 million democrat voters disappeared without a trace over night.
🙂 🙂
The Dims may say it was Comet Hale Bopp flying by again. They’re desperate now.
As a non tweeter, it did not show this to me, so here is the alternative, some funny stuff the last 2 hrs or so. The 15 million thing already scrolled to page 2.

I think I remember that guy from my twattle dayz! Funny stuff.
At least there is still an alternative to view it since viewing is limited now to the pinned post & 2 or so years ago posts.
Utwits is annoying me as if I have a US IP address, gotta sign in to view anything now, unless I connect to CANADA, or MEXICO or anywhere else around the world, otherwise I am deemed a BOT or underage. I hope this ceases now that election is over but I will not hold my breath.
At least the videos I post load on CTH pages (if they are still up on UT), even if I cannot click on them to view.
Guess I could spend another 5 bucks a month for a private IP address from PIA, but it’s not that big a pain in the A$$ yet…
I get it. I gave up on VPN’s long ago MMW!.
My posts and I are an open book…
Err, open “file” hah
rah
I guess when the Demunists flooded the ballot boxes with “81,000,000” fake votes for a shell of a man who couldn’t fill 8 hula hoops with supporters, they didn’t anticipate that the glaring lack of 15 million votes just 4 years later might illustrate and spotlight the Big Cheat.
On a state basis– CA down 7MM!!! Most of the rest in blue states hit for a Million like WA, OR. Strains credibility that so many decided to stay home

Seek the Lord
A close relationship with the Lord is built by
dedicating time to spend with Him—
day by day, year by year.
God doesn’t need anything from you,
but He desires your loving devotion and intimate fellowship.
Ask yourself, Is this what I want, too?

Howdy jay 🙂 Hope you like Narciso Yepes playing. Met him about 25 years or so ago. Nice guy and a great player.

Good post Victory Day, Garrison !!! 💕 I couldn’t believe my eyes this morning…already 162 comments and page 2??? What marvelous workings are these?
Love Ponce’s music, my friend. Don’t hear him enough so this is a most welcome treat for me 😘👍🏻☕
Yes, Yes…I know it’s only Friday Eve…

Happy CURSDAY, one and all!!!💕🇺🇸
Don’t worry, guys…I’M ON IT!!!
WOOF!!!

ABSOLUTELY!!!
Noble heads…
“Q”?!!? I KNEW that was a really smart dog!

I said nice things to you to say hello somewhere in the treehouse the other day while in the throes of imminent VICTORY 🙂 and then could never find it again ha!
Have a blessed day Bets!!~
Fat finger and no coffee, reed at 6 in the morning 😂

Love you, too 😘

Yer the Best, Bets! 🙂
Mornin’ Bets
One of “those” sleepless nights again. So, I decided to dip in early (for me) and wow – The joint is rockin’!
Totally relate to the furniture store guy. We took our dogs van shopping with us – test drive and all. They approved. 😁
Woops – I’ve been discovered. Breakfast mayhem begins. Back later to check out all the great stuff! ❤️
Good morning, Corny 😘 I have spells of nights like that…sympathies, girl ☕ But I’m glad you’re early, because I forgot to add this and seeing you reminded me!
An article I ran across in the Daily Mail a couple of weeks ago. A photo competition of our beloved dogs…and these are some of the winners.
Still basking in that after victory glow. Suspect it to go on for, oh say, approximately four years 😁
WOOHOO!!!! Coffee up, dear friend, as I am about to do 🤗💕
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13998681/Stunning-photos-Dog-Photography-Awards-winners.html
Bets,
Thoroughly enjoyed checking out the dog photography awards: some so touching like the old gent with the love in his life, and the just plain gorgeous. That was fun! ❤️
Nice!
How to start counting just how many 🤔

Colkitto had posted this Rudyard Kipling gem in a reply to me and I had never known of it. It’s wonderful and the dogs like it too ( dags in gypsy patois lol ) and here it is again!
The Power of the Dog
There is sorrow enough in the natural way
From men and women to fill our day;
And when we are certain of sorrow in store,
Why do we always arrange for more?
Brothers and Sisters, I bid you beware
Of giving your heart to a dog to tear.
Buy a pup and your money will buy
Love unflinching that cannot lie –
Perfect passion and worship fed
By a kick in the ribs or a pat on the head.
Nevertheless it is hardly fair
To risk your heart for a dog to tear.
When the fourteen years which Nature permits
Are closing in asthma, or tumor, or fits,
And the vet’s unspoken prescription runs
To lethal chambers or loaded guns,
Then you will find – it’s your own affair –
But … you’ve given your heart to a dog to tear.
When the body that lived at your single will,
With its whimper of welcome, is stilled (how still!);
When the spirit that answered your every mood
Is gone – wherever it goes – for good,
You will discover how much you care,
And will give you heart to a dog to tear.
🙂
This one always breaks my heart…💔
I’ve given my heart to dogs to tear over decades past…
Bless my sweet brother Colkitto. I’m not surprised he posted it.
Same but only a couple choice dags, when I was younger. I’ve always been more of a cat person. I really like that they walk themselves lol
Yeah, cats.We aloof each other daily 🙂
Stop making me cry!♥️
EE
When I am tempted to whine or complain about fur, slobber, mud etc, I literally tell myself to savor the presence of the tangible evidence of my fur kids. I have an old kitty who is not doing great. He gets me up multiple times a night, begs for treats throughout the day, and occasionally misses the litter box. I’m so grateful for his life, none of that matters. ❤️
Amen to that!!!
101?
At least it seems 😂
This is how out of it I am still, sis…
When I saw your “101”, I thought ” What on earth is she saying??
Took me longer than it should have.
Oh DEAR, Bet!!!!
💕 😂 💕 😂 💕 😂
Ha ha ha
One of the perils of responses not always posting directly beneath that which is the subject. 😛
LOVE LOVE!!!!!!
😍 😍 😍
🤣 😂 🤣
My big, white shepherd/husky mix was wicked smart, and daylight savings time never caused her to miss a beat. Dinner time was dinner time, PERIOD! (I really miss her, and all who I have lost).
Oh boy, I understand your missing, girl. The only downside to loving them 💔
Thanks Bets, and neither of us would change a thing about having them!!!
EE
You made me cry, in a really good way!!! Thanks AZ!
EE
We have 13 animals at the moment. Over 40 rest on our property. Each one rips my heart out when they go. As Bets just said, it is The downside of loving them. 💔
That’s really sweet to care for them all. I wish I had more space for animals as I’ve had Ranchita’s with all manner of early animal related AM chores – but I’ve downsized. One cat that walks itself – is enough 🙂
Reed
I sure hear ya’. We’ve actually made a conscious decision not to seek out more, but…..people dump them out here, they move out and leave them, and sometimes they just appear!
IT IS! But we would not take having had them for anything!!!
Well stated Betsy!!!
🤗 😘
🤗 😘
Hearing the lyricism in his music we can easily understand how Ponce and Segovia were long-term friends. Always loved this concerto. Be well, dear Bet. 🙂

The absolute biggest irony in this whole thing, is when the FBI raided the Amos Miller Family Farm, and decided to destroy raw milk, butter, etc, they effectively handed PA to Trump on a silver platter.
Well, that, and Scott Pressler.
The Amish don’t play.

Don’t forget the Mennonites, they voted too, for the same reason as the Amish.
Rosie was only 15 when she wrote and recorded this hit song.
Frankie Lyman was 13 when he recorded “Why do Fools fall in Love?”
One of my early favorites.
I’ll never forget the day in the 1950’s I was home alone and the kitchen wall phone rang:
“(WP), there’s someone here who wants to say hello to you. I told him you’re a big fan.”
It was my Dad calling from the recording studio.
“Hi (WP), this is Frankie Lymon….”
!!!! Lucky you!
Nice 🙂
What a wonderful story, thank you for sharing.
Happy you liked it, EE 🙂
Another classic.
Ok a Lymon story. KId got hooked on smack by maybe 14/15? Terrible story not uncommon, and was signed to the infamous Moishe Levy ( “Morris” to his non Yiddish speaking friends ) and George Goldner’s N.Y. based and mobbed up “Roulette Records”… ( Morris is depicted semi-fictitiously as the character “Hesh”; the record mogul in the classic cable tv series “The Soprano’s”.
So, as was customary of the time in the 1950’s record business the usual paid out royalty was colloquially referred to as –
“$500.00 and a Cadillac” as that’s what guys like Leonard Chess would pay Muddy Waters and Howlin’ Wolf after a record became a hit – but that was Chicago. Tough town. Tough business.
So back to Frankie Lymon and Mo Levy in N.Y.C. –
Little Frankie walks into Levy’s office one day and says:
“George we’ve got two hits on the charts, I need money haven’t seen a dime and I want my royalties!!”
Levy says to Lymon:
“You want royalties!?! Go to England!”
Next up: PAYOLA 🙂
Frankie Lymon died at 25 from a heroin overdose. When I hear him sing this song all I hear is the joy of life. It is sad. Very talented.
Musical note: Listen to this creative upright bass player, how he gives “Why Do Fools Fall In Love” its special jump feel. He plucks the strings in New Orleans “skipping bass” style while Frankie sings, up to the sax break when he changes to a “walking” bass, then returns to skipping bass until the end.
The backup is great. Thanks for explaining just why.
You’re welcome, lindak. Thank you for posting, it was fun to hear again.
A pure talent. Classic!

One of the most popular evening TV programs in Israel by the only right wing channel which is channel 14 celebrated Trump’s election.
I translated. Later on they prayed for “his success which is our success”. I don’t have the prayer. Was hard to translate. By the way the name of this program is “The Patriots”.
Enjoy.
Thank you David !! There is much joy here in the US…along with a lot of tears from “the Left”. Which is ALSO bringing much joy. As has been stated…Peace is The Prize. God Bless and Long Live America and Israel !!
Understood. I myself was very excited. Couldn’t sleep, was wired. ❤️
I just read that President Trump has given Hamas till inauguration day return all the 10/7 hostages or suffer the consquences!

Thank you for translating and sharing it with us.
What a good and loyal friend of CTH you are!
I think I accidentally found the prayer you spoke of — somewhat translated.
I see why you didn’t want to attempt it.
Lots of crosstalk.
😅And, they were so excited and joyful that they forgot to say Amen I believe.
I’ll say it for them and all of us — and for all of our grateful prayers:
Amen!
Is this the prayer and toast that came later in “The Patriots” celebratory broadcast?
https://x.com/OliLondonTV/status/1854373032300835269
Thank you!!!
That’s another one. I meant this below. He also prays that we will succeed with this war and Trump will succeed. It begins at 0:32.
😌 David: Amen!
🥲 The last of the several rapid-fire prayers always makes me tear up … so moving for me.
❤️ I love him putting on the TRUMP cap (as a kipa / yarmulke I think?)
🇮🇱 Israelis will insert humor wherever possible and I love it!

In Australia, there is gameshow (based on a UK gameshow) called The Chase.
The other night, one of the multiple choice questions went along the lines of:
The word ‘dinero’ is a medieval word that once referred to:-
A) Food
B) Money
C) A bad actor
I laughed!
“medieval word that once referred to”
It’s also a modern day Spanish word that STILL means money.
Also, Dinero is STILL a bad actor!
But I would have laughed too. Whoever wrote that has a sharp wit.
Heaven Be Praised, They Are My Brothers! – Gustave Dore

Let hearts rejoice who search for the Lord.
Sing to him, sing his praise,
proclaim all his wondrous deeds.
Glory in his holy name;
rejoice, O hearts that seek the Lord!
Let hearts rejoice who search for the Lord.
Look to the Lord in his strength;
seek to serve him constantly.
Recall the wondrous deeds that he has wrought,
his portents, and the judgments he has uttered.
Let hearts rejoice who search for the Lord.
You descendants of Abraham, his servants,
sons of Jacob, his chosen ones!
He, the Lord, is our God;
throughout the earth his judgments prevail.
Let hearts rejoice who search for the Lord.

We must continue to pray fervently for this new administration. The protection of Trump and his family. the routing out of betrayers and traitors in his midst. Breaking down the resistance of the deep state, and speaking righteousness and holiness and the blood of Jesus over the land. Breaking witchcraft and other curses. Establishing righteousness, and breaking down the entrapment and lies that have held this nation in bondage.

So yesterday there was a car ramming attack in Judea and Samaria. They ram the car into people and then coming out after the victims with either a knife, a gun or an axe. Pretty awful. The following video shows a civilian saving the life of a victim.
A very professional response. I would guess that he was also a combat soldier at some time. Should get an award and recognition. I bet he will. It reminds one the importance of personal weapon and training.

Forgive my ignorance – I’m an Aussie: are Harris and Walz (hack, spit, vomit) now out of a job? Does Weirdo Walz return to governing Minnesota?
And what happens in Ohio now that Vance is VP?
Kamala remains the VP, Walz remains the Governor of Minnesota.
Vance will resign his Senate seat when sworn in as VP. Then the Ohio Governor (or whoever, e.g., Ohio State Legislature) will need to appoint a temporary replacement and schedule an election to replace for 6 year term.
Thank you. Once JD is sworn in, will America be rid of Harris from politics?
We hope so but some of the talking heads are saying she will probably run for Governor of California.
God have mercy.
Governor appoints–Timken and Vivek mentioned
However, Harris’ job ends soon (😂), Walz’s not until his term ends (😢).
Let us not forget that the VP certifies the election in Congress. Kamala should enjoy that.
And thanks, my American friends. You voted well for America and the world. Much love to you all ❤️
Beautiful comment, brings tears to my eyes to fully comprehend that we are all connected as God’s children no matter where we take up residence in this world. Thank you.🥰

Lee Greenwood
@TheLeeGreenwood
Nearly 10 Years Ago, Donald Trump started using God Bless The USA as his walk out song at every rally and event. Little did I know 40 years ago that my song would play a key part of such a historic presidential campaign. To President Trump and the millions of supporters, Thank You!
I am proud to have voted Donald J. Trump as the 47th President of the United States.
The remixed “version” isn’t half bad and tends to mitigate the somewhat syrupy if not intensely patriotic version of the original. But the electric guitar chords under carry the verses and the contemporized version works quite well reworked, and it sounds as if Greenwood has added some vocal bits and if so? At 82 years old – That is to be commended!
I have never been a fan of that song ( I prefer Merle Haggard’s “Love it Or Leave It” stuff lol )
but Greenwood’s “Proud To Be An American” given my President’s signature tune. Well, it has taken on an entirely new meaning for me.
Y.M.C.A.? Not so much. All I see when I hear that is a memory from 1976 and those weird ghey construction workers and cops and Indian Chief’s all parading around in their Village Peopled uniforms and well….
You ain’t never gonna see me at no YMCA lookin’ fer fun and to stay at the YMCA ack 🙂
Wait. Do they even have YMCA’s any more? I think they went the way of the Cub Scouts. Dang – I still have my arrow badges lol
The YMCA in my old hometown in Indiana, google still lists it as there & is open now & closes @ 9PM.
It never had any rooms to rent tho, Pool & Gym … a meeting room or two & a couple of pool tables & air hockey.
Learned to swim there & took gymnastics & trampoline, last I was in it would have been late 70’s.
“Learned to swim there & took gymnastics & trampoline, last I was in it would have been late 70’s.”
Ha. I learned to swim in Terry Melcher’s pool circa 1966/68 a year ( maybe two? ) before Charlie Manson sent his killer girlfriends there and the rest is macabre history. Egads.

After the Government Service Academies, The Virginia Military Institute is by far the most prestigious service school. Stone Wall Jackson was a professor there. Patton went there before getting into West Point. Many other great military leaders were trained and educated at VMI.
Here was the reaction at VMI when Trump was announced the winner long after lights out! Those kids that are future officers in the US military knew what was at stake for their futures and that of their country.
i got goosebumps ♥️

Best single of theirs. I’m on their third LP? I think it was? was awhile ago lol 🙂

My Porsche and Triumph driving idol lol.
I bought my very first motorcycle from Bud Ekins shop in Sherman Oaks CA in 68/69. McQueen’s roaddog pal and the guy who jumped the Triumph in the Great Escape!
I’m still havin’ Porsche and Triumph’s to this day 🙂
My dad rode bikes with them.
Mornin’ MMW!
The first woman President. Umm, wait. I’m sure there were others.
I cannot comment on Eleanor (before my time) but even if we
electedselected one of thosedemons“woman” as President, Hilldog or Kameltow they would not have been the first “female” President.Nancy was probably the 2nd after Eleanor, press may have never known about before then for it being taboo & very hush hush if one of our earlier Presidents had a few marbles slip outta the machine early.
And A good morning to all …. now I must show myself out for nappy time & my day “off” tomorrow. Karaoke night is fun anyhow, even if it is “work”.
Only time EVER i sang Karaoke was in a bar on Kauai – and I shut the place down!
They tell me I had fun ( whew ) there is no film of this. I bought it all lol

There’s a lover in the story
But the story’s still the same
There’s a lullaby for suffering
And a paradox to blame
But it’s written in the scriptures
And it’s not some idle claim
You want it darker
We kill the flame
In case you didn’t know. This what a Red Wave looks like.

That blue part of CA near the coast is predicted to fall into the Pacific from the sheer weight and mass of its lunacy.
Don’t ask me how I know – or how I survived 🙂
Sigh, haven’t they been predicting that longer than
Global Cooling… no …Global Warming… er Climate Change.(in my best Vinnie Barbarino accent) I’m SO confused!
Way back in 1969 there was a song about CA falling into the ocean due to ‘the big one’ earthquake. That was pre climate alarmism.
When we moved out of the LA area in 1998, caravanning in a pickup and a used Saturn, we put a sign in the back window of the pickup, showing a city skyline and smog, and the words, Escaped from LA. People honked and waved and thumbs-upped all across the country. You couldn’t pay me a million bucks a year to go back.

A couple of thoughts:
We that are sane need to do our best to stigmatize any Republican that works with the left on “climate change” issues. They will be by definition in opposition to President Trumps drill baby drill which is vital for righting our financial ship and getting inflation under control. Don’t let any RINO try and use climate change as cover for opposition to Trumps agenda.Though we have not seen ANTIFA come out and make a move yet I would bet it is coming. I suspect that it will come at the inauguration. The intent will be to cause a violent reaction by the authorities that will serve to allow the Press to paint Trump as the tyrant that they’ve been screaming he is.
Yup. I suspect they’ll use petroleum based accelerants to get their points across. 👊
Include congressman Valadao (R) in your never Tump list. He voted twice to impeach President Trump. I would NEVER have voted for him in this election if President Trump had not asked us to vote R all down ticket.
