Good to know my paper calendar gives such positive insight.👍 “Psychologists Say People Who Still Use Paper Calendars Aren't Stubborn or Old-Fashioned. Their Brains Are Wired to Process Information in a Richer Way” share.google/CpTF6dk5OklNSrw

I paid @duolingo for the unlimited mistakes plan! This is the 4th time since mid April that the software limits me to 5 mistakes. There is no discernable way to directly contact duolingo. Any ideas????.

Many of us are nonMoms and we have been devoted aunties, godmothers, step-mothers, teachers and friends. We, too, should be celebrated. “Niece” #EyvonneWiltonRobinson said it best. For us, it’s “We have Mothered” Day! 👍

From my 19 days in Europe, based on my experiences conversing with locals and other tourists from around the world, views about our current administration are overwhelmingly unfavorable. Full stop.

Today, May 8th is a national holiday in France commemorating the end of WW2….#VictoryInEuropeDay.

I was not 🎶Singing in the rain🎶☂️, I was walking in it for 7.82 miles. I visited Musee Rodin, the largest collection & then to Musee D’orsay to see the Renoir exhibit. And I “flaneused”… seeing many unplanned sites, buildings, stores, jardins & cafes. AH….Paris!

Standing in line at Musee D’Orsay to see the Renoir Exhibit. My lucky day!

@VerminusM Thank you for posting Eric Hoffer’s evergreen article. 58 years later…and SADLY relevant!

Eric Hoffer wrote this article about the Jewish state in 1968. Amazing how nothing changed since. "The Jews are a peculiar people: things permitted to other nations are forbidden to the Jews. Other nations drive out thousands, even millions of people and there is no refugee problem. Russia did it, Poland and Czechoslovakia did it, Turkey threw out a million Greeks, and Algeria a million Frenchmen. Indonesia threw out heaven knows how many Chinese-and no one says a word about refugees. But in the case of Israel the displaced Arabs have become eternal refugees. Everyone insists that Israel must take back every single Arab. Arnold Toynbee calls the displacement of the Arabs an atrocity greater than any committed by the Nazis. Other nations when victorious on the battlefield dictate peace terms. But when Israel is victorious it must sue for peace. Everyone expects the Jews to be the only real Christians in this world. Other nations when they are defeated survive and recover but should Israel be defeated it would be destroyed. Had Nasser triumphed last June he would have wiped Israel off the map, and no one would have lifted a finger to save the Jews. No commitment to the Jews by any government, including our own, is worth the paper it is written on. There is a cry of outrage all over the world when people die in Vietnam or when two Negroes are executed in Rhodesia. But when Hitler slaughtered Jews no one remonstrated with him. The Swedes, who are ready to break of diplomatic relations with America because of what we do in Vietnam, did not let out a peep when Hitler was slaughtering Jews. They sent Hitler choice iron ore, and ball bearings, and serviced his troop trains to Norway. The Jews are alone in the world. If Israel survives, it will be solely because of Jewish efforts. And Jewish resources. Yet at this moment Israel is our only reliable and unconditional ally. We can rely more on Israel than Israel can rely on us. And one has only to imagine what would have happened last summer had the Arabs and their Russian backers won the war to realize how vital the survival of Israel is to America and the West in general. I have a premonition that will not leave me; as it goes with Israel so will it go with all of us. Should Israel perish the holocaust will be upon us."

Hey @Duolingo your bots screwed up again! I paid your yearly fee for unlimited mistakes. And for the 2nd time in 2 weeks I received the 5 mistake version. Do get your software corrected. ASAP!

Europe’s process of educating, testing and licensing tour guides is superb! I learned more from guide #annalovesvienna than I have in history classes.

@GaryPetersonUSA 😂😂😂😂😂

King Charles and Queen Camilla get a taste of fine American dining, all thanks to President Trump who teaches them a thing or two about class.

@brianstelter @NewsCentralCNN @kaitlancollins Sweet!

Started the day with my daughter doing my makeup before a @NewsCentralCNN live shot... about to end the day now on The Source with @kaitlancollins

@DocAtCDI @mariana057 😂

My grandpa's last wish was that we convert his ashes into a diamond. That's a lot of pressure.

Sometimes one has to “sacrifice” to have a notable experience. 😉 Even though I’m not a sacher torte fan, I went to iconic Sacher Hotel Cafe in Vienna -where it was invented -and ordered it! I took one for the team! 😂

@dlippman @jonathanvswan That boy will have plenty to atone for Sept 21.

My daughter asked me what it was like to be a parent. So I woke her up at 2am to tell her I was thirsty!

I learned there’s one universal sound that’s the same worldwide irrespective of language. On this trip I’ve heard it in Polish, Hungarian, German and it sounds exactly the same in English. Children whining! 🤣

#Travel is a teacher! What I have learned about history, art, cultures and the results of wars have added to my knowledge. Travel meets my goal of #lifelonglearner! The iconic & opulent #NewYorkCityCafe in Budapest.
