Three Joe Biden moments no one’s talking about


In Joe Biden’s speech after winning more delegates on March 10th, there are three moments that should concern people about his cognitive health, his physical health, and the bigger picture. Check them out below…

Microexpressions (4:47)… in this clip, Joe Biden touches his face as he says, “…and it appears, although it’s a little premature, it appears that’s what we were able to do tonight,” referring to his momentum building with possible wins in Michigan, Missouri, and Mississippi, etc. Touching of one’s face could be a “tell” that they are lying or stressed about the information they’re delivering. Also note this is the ONLY time Joe touches his face in the entire 11-minute speech.

No child left behind (6:40)… in this clip, he says, “Providing every child with access to good edruration.” Please, please, please click the link to watch the clip, it’s so odd, as if his teeth were about to fall out… again. After the gaffe, his wife wants to look over at her husband but also doesn’t want to draw more attention to what just happened, so she tries  to be as casual as possible as she turns her head towards him.

A Trojan horse (10:19)… this clip shows Biden saying, “We’re on– close to the eve of St. Patrick’s Day.” A reminder that this speech was on on March 10th and St. Patrick’s Day is March 17th. If it were December 18th would you say we’re close to Christmas Eve? I guess we can let this one slide but I also thought it was funny the quote he proceeds to use from poet Seamus Heaney is a line referring to the Trojan War where the Greeks used a wooden horse to trick the Trojans, and thereby winning the Trojan War. Perhaps Biden is the Democrats Trojan horse. If he gets elected, the real powers behind him (*ahem* socialists??) show up to rule. That’s probably a stretch, though. 🙂

I’ve been to Atlanta, part 3

This post will conclude the Atlanta trip, and basically it’s a post that has information that I forgot to put in the other posts 🙂 If you’ve been following along, you already know how great this trip was. There was dancing. There was delicious food. There were meerkats. All of it was awesome.

Sunday morning we went to Louie Giglio’s church and it was such a memorable experience. Sometimes when you go to these big churches you might get lost in the lights and “show” of it all, and to be totally honest, I thought that might happen with us. But I was woefully mistaken. The worship was incredible. To be totally honest again, I thought, “OK, what I get from the sermon won’t… no, CAN’T… outshine the worship.” Then I was wrong again. Louie spoke about the spiral of sin and like one of my pastors here in Nashville says, I thought he must’ve been reading my journal. It was amazingly relevant to my life and something I needed to hear and be challenged by.

Something else I need to mention because I haven’t yet… the games we played! Sequence Niece challenged us to a game of Sequence Garage Sale Mania and once again (because we’ve played this together before), I lost. I was so close to winning but Dancing Niece got the luckiest ‘detour’ card and made it to her home spot before me.

The night we went out for Mexican food included a few games of pool. I’m the worst pool player but it was fun to play with both nieces.

The trip wrapped up with a final dance at the Atlanta Convention Center, the home base of all things dance this weekend. My niece’s team won first place in a few categories for their last performance, and it also got 2nd overall. It was a really well-choreographed dance and I’m so proud of her!

Thanks for following along with my first trip to Atlanta. Hope you enjoyed the read and if you have any Atlanta experiences to share, comment below. Till next time…

Joe Biden tells woman to “shush”

EDIT: After further clarification, he actually tells her to “shush, shush” but the rest of the post still applies, the title has been updated with “shush” instead of “hush.”  

I’m not sure if this little outburst from Joe Biden will blow up, but when I heard it I was taken aback. You’d think in the era in which we find ourselves that a power move like this would be strongly condemned by women and men alike…

The context of when he said “shush, shush” definitely plays a part in his overall sassy attitude, as he’s being confronted by a dude talking about the second amendment, but if I were the woman I’d be pretty embarrassed.

How do you feel about this clip? Do you think Biden owes her an apology? Does the moment deserve a public explanation? Chime in below!

Daylight Saving Time is a tech nightmare!

Stress! This whole “spring forward” really stressed me out this year. As we all know, it happened between a Saturday and Sunday, something like 2am or 3am we’re supposed to move our clocks ahead one hour.

Doesn’t sound too difficult, right? Wrong! For starters, I love clocks so I have 7 in my home, not including a phone and 3 or 4 watches. You’re still thinking, “So what? What’s the big deal?” aren’t you? Here’s the part that did me in this year: of these dozen or so keepers of the time, which ones will automatically switch to the new time? Smart phones are smart enough to do that, I’m sure. But what about my smart watch? What about my regular watches? How about the stove clock and the microwave clock… are they programmed to “know” when to spring forward and fall back?

This conundrum weighed heavy on me because on this time-change weekend I had an event that started at 630am, punctuality high on my list of importance. So here’s what I did…

  1. before bed, I set all the clocks and watches ahead one hour EXCEPT for one wrist watch and one clock.
  2. Wore two watches all night long, the smart watch on my right wrist, and the unchanged watch on my left.
  3. Woke up at 5am and hoped for the best. Ideally, the watch on my left would match the unchanged clock, and everything else would match being an hour ahead.
  4. Check the 5am news to see what time they had.

I was totally stressing out for nothing, wasn’t I? Or maybe I’m just like everyone else who were also bamboozled by the same predicament! I mean, in our advanced technological age, how are we supposed to know which clocks are programmed with Daylight Savings time already accounted for?

STRESS!!!!!

Also, thank you for stopping by, do you mind telling me what time you have? Just want to make sure I’m an hour ahead of where I was this time last week!
