Congratulations Alyssa!! 🥳🍼
No one's come back from the day that we're aware of. But the greatest fear of death is the way it happens maybe.
I just want to make a tiny point: "2c" opinion. So many people are sort of upset at the African American male undecided voters but I've listened to some voices of reason. For way too long they are picked on, overlooked, bullied, made to feel inadequate unless they conform and so on, until they don't feel as American as others who don't really have to work or try so hard in society. Until George Floyd a lot has been Ixnay on ackblay emotional and mental issues. Who fixes their patriotic stance??
Happy Birthday Joy!!! 🇺🇲💜🎁🥳🎉🎂🍾🍸
Unfortunately the immigration system is broken. There are reports of homeless immigrants killing ducks at a park in Springfield OH. See the empty pockets garage channel on YouTube. Also these people coming in with our support is the true issue not that they are monsters. They need help

I will miss everyone of the ladies and that pesty Brian. loved the table talk. Love to have less shopping and much more of the Ladies. there no other show like yours.
