easy to see you being keyed up

9:34 am

bojazz

Are we supposed to send gifts... ?

9:34 am

9:34 am

mixi6

Yes. one piano two people.

9:35 am

hokie carla

interesting, I wish I could watch. you'll do great!

9:35 am

mixi6

pianists duet better.

9:35 am

rururocks

could be worse mixi honestly

9:35 am

hokie carla

I thought you were ru for a second

9:36 am

cybernan

why is it called 4 hands instead of a duet?

9:36 am

rururocks

could have been a four lip tuba concert

9:36 am

hokie carla

just guessing a duet would be 2 pianos

9:36 am

mixi6

could be called either. Piano duo is usually two pianos and two people.

9:37 am

cybernan

good explanation

9:37 am

cybernan

so are you doing the treble or the bass?

9:39 am

MLFAN17

t fo rthe so 6/7

9:39 am

MLFAN17

ty

9:39 am

mixi6

mostly bass. The last piece a get a little treble.

9:40 am

mixi6

my fingers are longer. Chords are easier for me and my partner trills are better.

9:41 am

cybernan

9:41 am

9:52 am

hokie carla

9:53 am

9:53 am

cybernan

clergy + hesitation sound + sometimes vowel

9:54 am

cybernan

9:55 am

penquis

9:57 am

hokie carla

well, I didn't understand the volley mom clue but still got it, thx ru

9:57 am

MollyL

9:58 am

hokie carla

9:58 am

MollyL

VolleyMom--- is a player here

9:58 am

hokie carla

I think that's why I'm having such trouble

*!*~*!* Thanks for the help

9:59 am

cybernan

9:59 am

hokie carla

rhymes with a restaurant I've heard of in various places

10:00 am

cybernan

hagd everyone - no more storms, I hope

10:05 am

cybernan

I have no desire to give offense, but after being increasingly disturbed by the news that has been breaking the last few days, my conscience demands that I speak out....

10:05 am

bichon

nan, me too

10:06 am

cybernan

“Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free” -- words inscribed on the base of the statue of liberty.
Today, would be immigrants arriving at the United States borders are swept up and imprisoned in shocking, crowded, inhumane conditions that don't even give a nod to the Geneva Convention, a standard for the humane treatment of prisoners. Children, toddlers and infants are torn from their parents arms – some never to be reunited again. Remember those pictures of the filthy, disease-ridden, skin and bone prisoners freed from German concentration camps at the end of WWII? This is happening in America today at the behest of the current administration and its supporters.
Now I happen to believe that most Americans are decent, hard working, caring individuals. What I don't understand is why aren't these decent, reasonable caring people standing up and screaming bloody murder about this?
Where are you?
Has America reached the point where it's citizens are afraid to stand up and protest Injustice? Or am I wrong in my beliefs about the majority of Americans and you really don't care or is it that you just don't see it?
I am not an American citizen so maybe you think I have no right to comment, but I think this goes beyond borders and beyond politics, threatening the human condition. This has gone on far too long.
This is me, a citizen of the world, standing up and screaming bloody murder.

10:07 am

bichon

At least you don't live here

10:07 am

cybernan

Thank God

10:08 am

hokie carla

I couldn't understand the people that supported him and I don't understand the people that still support him.

10:08 am

bonkler

What nan said

10:09 am

bichon

There's all sorts of people in this country who are the polar opposite of us.

10:10 am

Vicuna

We are standing up and screaming bloody murder. Maybe the foreign press doesn't cover the protests, the petitions, the speeches, the visits to camps, the donations to aid and advocacy groups, the people risking their own lives to help immigrants at the border. We see it. We are outraged. We try all we can to influence those with power. We welcome your outrage, your protests, your attempts to influence. It will take all of us.

10:11 am

Vicuna

But you're absolutely right that it's appalling that it isn't 100% of the population in outrage.

10:11 am

cybernan

We got the news of politicians visiting the camps and Pence trying to justify it, and Trump brushing it aside, but nothing about protest marches like the ones the kids organized after that school shooting in Florida

10:12 am

mery9419

Over 700 US cities had protest vigils on Friday night.

10:12 am

libarebel

So eloquently put, cybernan-- what happens when they start taking our neighbors away-- do we turn a blind eye, as German citizens did? ICE (name & gard) are so reminiscent of Storm Troopers-- we should be raising bloody hell, as we are in protests, etc/. but it seems that a lot of Americans are complacent & have become inured to Trumps daily atrocities in word & action-- we have to do more!

10:13 am

bichon

I have a "frind" who was fine with Trump. There's a system of checks and balances in this country. Hah

10:13 am

libarebel

garb

10:14 am

hokie carla

I guess he's fine if you can overlook all the despicable qualities he has

10:14 am

cybernan

wow - that is encouraging mery --- I wonder why that isn't plastered all over the news -- media coverage of protests is what it will take --- that and petitions threateneng not to support local and regional politicians who support the administration in this.

10:14 am

bonkler

I was aware of the recent protests only through social media, the networks whiffed, preferring to cover the orange loon and his continuous spew of nonsense and outrage

10:15 am

bonkler

I know a lot of beautiful souls in the States

10:16 am

hurshy

that's like saying that spaghetti is fine, if you can overlook all the noodles, hokie, lol

10:16 am

hokie carla

yeah, I was being facetious in case you couldn't tell :D

10:17 am

mery9419

Many of the local law enforcement agencies are refusing to work with ICE or allow them access to their databases.

10:18 am

Vicuna

Please please believe that, whatever the media says, the majority of US residents (not as vast a majority as it should be, but definitely a majority) are not okay with this and are trying to stop it.

10:18 am

Deeha

Is that any way to talk about a man that thought the Airfields were held by troopS in the war of Independance when we all know it was the Civil War!!!(Think Rhett Butler had a hand in it)!!

10:19 am

mery9419

We declare ourselves "Sanctuary Cities" and our current federal administration is threatening to cut off funding to us.

10:19 am

bonkler

Scarlett O'Hara burning the helicopter was such a moving scene

10:20 am

bonkler

In Canada we get a tremendous amount of American media, e hear you and see you and support yo. It may not seem like it but we love our neoghbours

10:20 am

MLFAN17

cani get a clue ofr the de words just mentioned in chat below?

10:20 am

libarebel

There are also numerous petitions posted in progressive websites-- I sign at least 2 daily, but the time has come to rid the country of Trump, Pence & their ilk-- Congress should take way more aggressive action than they have, however, they are crippled by Republican Senate-- they would vote against impeachment, and it's illegal to indict a sitting president-- I'm hoping Mueller's testimony will be so damning that Orange Fascist Lunatic will be forced to resign...

10:21 am

Deeha

We have no room to talk when our next PrimeMinister is likely to be Boris

10:22 am

MLFAN17

I saw not getting the middle of the word

10:22 am

cybernan

I am relieved to hear that citizens are speaking out -- we got nothing of this in our news coverage -- and we do get cnn, wolf and anderson cooper

10:22 am

MLFAN17

hi deeha

10:22 am

Deeha

Hi all

10:23 am

cybernan

it obviously is going to take more that democrat politicians speaking out as libarebel said

10:24 am

cybernan

I don't want to live next door to another 3rd reich as I am certain you don't want to live in one

10:24 am

hokie carla

gotta get some stuff done, 15 stubborn words left. TTFN!

10:25 am

cybernan

me too -- the garden is looking neglected and it is cloudy out, so a good day to work outside. Thanks for allowing me to let off some steam :)

10:25 am

bonkler

Sadly, American style politics has crept north and we are fighting to prevent a conservative xenophobic, white nationalist from getting elected in October

10:27 am

Vicuna

Well, maybe we can at least help you out by serving as an object lesson to take the threat seriously.

10:27 am

cybernan

that is true, bonkler -- wish the Liberals would come up with a new leader. I don't think we could afford an NDP government, and I sure don't like Scheer

10:27 am

jbp

it's global. everywhere people are resisting globalization in the worst ways possible, by rejecting anyone who is from elsewhere

10:27 am

bichon

na 5/12, pls

10:28 am

MLFAN17

de word reclue please?

10:28 am

jbp

10:28 am

libarebel

There was a Trump meme posted nline that read "Christians have been warning about the Antichrist for 2000 years, & when he shows up, they vote for him"

10:28 am

MLFAN17

I was just going to say that jhp

libarebel

Kim Jong Un & Vladimir Putin seem to be candidates too...

10:34 am

hokie carla

I said he was the anti-christ before the election and couldn't believe then or now that so-called christians were behind him. I grew up christian but they have turned me off. he probably won the county I grew up in by a landslide, which is baffling. why do the poor people think he would help them or care anything at all? he's been a rich guy his entire life and couldn't care less about poor, rural people.

10:35 am

libarebel

finger twitched-- sorry for double post

10:36 am

hurshy

i told my students, when people have trouble finding jobs and feeding their families, they get desperate. if someone says there's a simple solution, just get rid of certain people and all will be well, people like simple solutions. so when hitler comes along saying, "Make Germany Great Again", they jump at it. but economics doesn't tend to have simple solutions in reality anyway.

10:37 am
