I only take prescription medicine.
What the heck do I mean by Vice Presidents and pop music?
Read on, and find out.
As you can see by Itzl's concerned look, this group is for us to check in at to let people know we are alive, doing OK, and not affected by such things as heat, blizzards, floods, wildfires, hurricanes, tornadoes, power outages, or other such things that could keep us off Daily Kos. If you're not here, or anywhere else on Daily Kos, and there are adverse conditions in your area (floods, heatwaves, hurricanes, etc.), we are going to check up on you. If you are going to be away from your computer for a day or a week, let us know here. We care! IAN is a great group to join, and a good place to learn to write diaries. Drop one of us a PM to be added to the Itzl Alert Network anytime! We all share the publishing duties, and we welcome everyone who reads IAN to write diaries for the group! Every member is an editor, so anyone can take a turn when they have something to say, photos and music to share, a cause to promote or news! Monday: Youffraita Tuesday: bigjacbigjacbigjac Wednesday: Pam from Calif Thursday: art ah zen Friday: FloridaSNMOM Saturday: FloridaSNDad Sunday: loggersbrat This is the dog named Itzl.
When I was planning to see the grandson of Harry Truman, I did a little research, at Wikipedia, so I would know what to say, or what not to say. In that research, I found this:
In 1920, Calvin Coolidge was elected as VP.
In August of 1923, Warren G. Harding died.
Coolidge became President.
In 1944, Harry Truman was elected as VP.
In April of 1945, Roosevelt died.
Truman became President.
In 1960, the Kennedy-Johnson ticket was elected.
On November 22nd, 1963, Kennedy was assassinated.
Johnson became President.
On October 10, 1973, Spiro Agnew resigned from the vice presidency. GeraldFord was nominated to take Agnew's position on October 12. The United States Senate voted 92 to 3 to confirm Ford on November 27. On December 6, the House confirmed Ford by a vote of 387 to 35.
Spiro Agnew United States Senate Nixon resigned on August 9, 1974.
Ford became President.
In 2024, it is most likely that the Biden-Harris ticket will be re-elected.
At any point in time, starting on Inauguration Day, in January of 2025, and going forwards through 2028, Joe Biden can certainly say, “I’m getting too old for this! Say hello to your new President, Kamala Harris!”
Harris becomes President.
I just had to get that off my chest. So many American commentators say, “Biden is getting too old! What are we going to do?”
They act like they do not know any of what I just posted above.
They act like they do not know how our government works.
Okay, enough politics.
Time for music!
I am posting my two favorite songs from my Sunday music diary:
So much fun. So lively.
I look a little like him, in my boxers. But I have more fat and more hair.
Another lively and fun song. Nice dance moves!
Okay, I think I will post my usual “day in the life of bigjac”, in the comments.
That makes the diary faster and easier to read.
Hugs!
