The Happy Thread, Part Two

I was going to step out for dinner, so I thought I should put up a post.

However, I think the Happy Post -- what you are thankful for -- might be more important.

Below is a thread about the corrupt grifter who has taken the position of Tyrant of America. You may post there about politics.

But use this one to continue the Happy Thread.

Now I'm going to get some bbq.

I'll be back for one last post, later.

I'll save the snark for later.

3 What is good in life, and in America?

That people are more aware than ever that the First and Second Amendments go hand in hand, and eternal vigilance is required.

That my mother is able to enjoy a full rich life of independence and relative security (because nothing is sure in this life).

I'm grateful for my job, and my wonderful boss and coworkers.

I'm grateful for the cute young Coasties and Jarheads down the hall in their snug work unis with the tightly rolled sleeves who are blissfully unaware that I'm discretely scoping them out.

28 Under the Constitution you have a total right to Liberty since it's like, right in there. So if its Liberty you want, Liberty you shall have. If marrying a Chihuahua is your idea of Liberty, than we find that right to be enshrined by the Founders in our nation's basic law.

Just don't get the idea that this whole Liberty thing is open-ended, since the newly-liberated will need people to bake their wedding cakes.

36 My contribution to the Happy Thread -

I just came back from the local Chik Fil'A here in my home city in LA County. It replaced a Burger King a while back.

As late in the afternoon as it was, the place was packed. Evidently giving aid to the pro-traditional marriage forces hasn't impacted the chain's bottom line much even in very liberal LA County.

Surprisingly, I've had some kick-ass BBQ at the local biker bars here.

50 >>> That my mother is able to enjoy a full rich life of independence and relative security (because nothing is sure in this life).

Took my grandma to doctor today on lunch break. In her nineties, immigrated here in the 50's with practically nothing. She and my grandpa worked hard, learned the language, raised their kids to love America, and scrimped and saved. Built a house and bought rental property that she makes income from to this day. Grandpa died a millionaire, she will too, and hopefully will die in her own home in her own bed. Raised four great kids and I like to think the grandkids turned out all right too, hah.

I was raised to believe the American Dream is alive and well, and I see living proof of it every day in my fam. May we fight, with every breath in us if need be, to keep it beating.

Incidentally and related, I discovered last night an old short-lived tv series from 2002 called Odyssey 5 starring Peter Weller.

It's about a bunch of jerkoffs in a space station and then all of a sudden, get this, the Earth goes kablooey.
They're all like WTF???.

In mere seconds the Earth was enveloped in a yellow haze and then imploded. Awesome, eh?
A few minutes later when the space station and space shuttle crews were trying wrap their heads around what just happened, a car floats by!!

So, yeah, that'd be nice about right now.

Upside to today's 14th Amendment ruling: There are no longer any grounds for a blue state to deny reciprocity to CCW permits from other states.

103 God is in control. What we are going through now is what Israel went through under evil kings like Saul in the Old Testament. There will be trials and there will be troubles, our nation is definitely in such a time right now.

There are citizens that are waking up from their slumber due to the Progressive Era reaching its zenith. Pain is a teacher and millions are learning some hard lessons regarding the costs of a large and intrusive state. I don't think this message will be lost.

Personally, I am in good health and thankful for every day that God gives me.

116 Also good: Books.

Specifically, the Expanse Series, by James S. A. Corey. The author's name is a pseudonym for Ty Frank and Daniel Abraham.

Space Opera at its finest, the series is up to five books now (out of a planned nine). In order:

1. Leviathan Wakes;
2. Caliban's War;
3. Abaddon's Gate;
4. Cibola Burn; and,
5. Nemesis Games.

Syfy has just wrapped on the first year of a series based on the books:

What are the chances that You will be spend time (involuntarily) in Sensitivity Training at least once in your lifetime?

I'm gonna guess that if you're under 60 right now, you have a 90% chance of attending some sort of Sensitivity Training. If you're under 50 years old, you have a 95% chance.

Everyone here under 40 y.o. probably has a 99.99% chance of involuntarily sensitivity training in their future.

Yeah, it was a big F*ck You to the voters of California from His Justiceness Anton.

Seriously i do not know how i would face the news without being able to read your posts to Grim and laugh at your profane good gallows humour. We talk about you guys when doing chores and laugh at what ace said over dinner, and when the vet is here and i am waiting on something (usually fucked up) going on with some sad rescue horse, i can read the Daywalkers being Daywalker funny, and the ONT people being ONT funny, and the world doesnt seem quite so dire, because our tribe is scattered in it. Grim actually asks me to "Turn on your friends BC and Alexthechick so i can listen to them tonight." That always cracks me up. you may be imaginary friends in the magic picture sending box, but at least for now you are as real as some people we see in RL and considerably MORE real that many of the acquaintances we are forced to deal with here in California.

Not sure how he squares that circle in his mind but oh well.

226 What is good?

God is good, all the time. All the time, God is good.

The Bible predicts this, all of it. Human nature hasn't changed. God sees all of us, every thought, every deed, every lie.

I'm sinner, just like Barack Obama. And I can't judge him, not eternally, but I sure as shit wouldn't want to have to answer for the life he's lived.

Everyone will be called to account. So there's that.

What is good?

My belly is full. My neighbors are armed and fed up with this shit. I have wonderful, loyal friends who don't give a damn about how much I make, what car I drive or how important I am. I laugh every day.

I'm not a saint, but I sleep well at night because I don't treat others poorly. I know what I value and live accordingly.

My kids are the best thing ever--cute, funny, smart, and infinitely interesting to me. My wife is my best friend, my biggest supporter, and better in bed than any woman I've ever been with.

Our home is generally a happy, loving and peaceful place. Our family is strong. We treat each other with kindness and forgiveness.

I have a TV. Guys fight on the TV screen for me for my entertainment. I drink delicious craft beer as a watch them fight. I can afford to do this.

I'm middle-aged and on zero medication. My bloodwork is clean, my blood pressure low. I work out regularly. I have aches and pains, but I can still play with my kids.

I quit nicotine years ago and am no longer a slave to it.

I've saved a nice bit for retirement. We won't starve.

I hate what's happening to my country, but I don't live in a place where I have to worry about ISIS cutting my head off--or the heads of the people I love--for my beliefs.

Things are pretty damned good, actually.

After a predictable interception by Peete, I just declared, "Fuck this, no more passing, just runs from now on!" It was not a psych, either. Still, my opponent, who had the Browns, could not stop Mel Gray from romping all over his team en route to an MVP game.

237 if we're going to be labeled as sexist, homophobe racists, then we might as well drop the attempts at politeness and courtesy and start owning those labels.

And for those of you who think that somehow by not expressing your anger over the labels that things will change?

Well you've just been proven wrong.

The left does not forgive. They do not forget.

We are to be demonized and if they achieve full power they will murder us for our beliefs because to them we deserve to die for what they think we believe.

Telling your self different hasn't changed that attitude. Not one little bit.

And sure in your daily life you will meet leftists and homosexuals and blacks and feminists who are friendly and polite and who act nice.

But that doesn't mean one damn thing when push comes to shove. In the final analysis they won't be there standing with you, they'll be on the other side screaming for your death and/or dismemberment just as loud as any of the others.

If you lose sight of this you will deserve every bit of hate that they spew because you're stupid and weak.

IN which case we will see each other again, and in the meantime she will play with my grandmother who cried and cried for her calico cat just before she died. well now she can have two of mine as well (the other died at the ripe old age of 18.) I do however have four kittens of adoptable age at a friends house and the one remaining kitty is pregnant and likely to give me more.



I guess i gotta be grateful. the reason shes alive is the psycho cant catch her. I cant get her in a cage to get fixed, but neither can anyone else for any other reason.


and yeah, im pissed. What kind of fucker lives in a rural area full of hay barns and rats kills the neighbor's barn cats?

256 Driving to work a few weeks ago, the sun was just peeking above the horizon and the weather was spectacular. Crossing the Fuller Warren Bridge, I was in a particularly good mood and thought of how, on that day, I'd really like to turn my car from the direction it was pointed, call in for the day, and just go on a good long drive.

On that day it overwhelmed me that I had the freedom to make that choice.

I could go to work and perform well and proud for my pay.
I could go to work and screw off.
I could call in and play hooky.
I could turn the car in the opposite direction and disappear into the distance.

I could do almost anything I chose to do and, despite the best efforts of some in DC, I STILL have the freedom to choose what I will do with my life and with my day. I can STILL choose to win or lose at life.

I can pursue an education or dig ditches or, due to my health issues, sit on my ass and draw welfare and/or social security.

I chose, instead, to drive straight to work and to do my best to deliver on my commitments.

Does that freedom to make your own way ever overwhelm anyone else?

I mean, holy cow! It's just miraculous that we were Blessed to have been born in America.

We had a beloved family cat who just disappeared one summer evening and we didn't see her for three months. She returned out of the blue, a little thinner and in need of grooming, but otherwise perfectly healthy. We always wonder if she was trapped in a barn, or picked up in a car and had to wend her way back home.

No one even wanted sauce.

Actually what you describe does mean that 50% of marriages end in divorce. But it does not mean that 50% of the people who marry will divorce. My parents were married for 36 years until my father died. Larry king has been married 5 times. In order to get to the 50% statistic with Larry King in the group you would need 5 other couples like my parents.

276 That "50% of marriages end in divorce" stat has been debunked.

Yeah, its counting total divorces and dividing by marriages. Most divorces are by the same person; the odds of getting another divorce go up notably for each one a person has. If 10 people marry and 1 person has 5 divorces, that doesn't mean 50% of marriages end in divorce. It means 10% do, over and over again.

I figure that's the same sort of "math" they use to determine how many wome have had an abortion. If you have 9 women and one of them has had three abortions well then that's 3 abortions per 9 women so a third of all women have had an abortion.

We had a beloved family cat who just disappeared
one summer evening and we didn't see her for three months. She
returned out of the blue, a little thinner and in need of grooming, but
otherwise perfectly healthy. We always wonder if she was trapped in a
barn, or picked up in a car and had to wend her way back home.

Posted by: All Hail Eris, Literate Savage at June 26, 2015 07:23 PM (jR7Wy)



thats an awesome story Eris! well... Spooky is a tough little cookie as well as a pretty little charmer. What i am hoping like hell is that she cozened her way into another family and they know about the psycho down the road and made her their house cat. Its possible because she is so cute and so funny and talkative. Hopefully the figured out shes allergic to Revolution by now and shes got flea stuff on her and is living the life.


Isnt it awesome we can get rid of pests with those drops now? I always thought that was such a blessing to our animals these days. perfectly safe and free of bugs. wow. Theres a lot in this world that is cool.

365 Thankful for my kids. My 2 year old son took his float off while we were taking a dinner brake from the pool, then tried to get back in afterward without it. I was standing right next to the stairs when he did and I took him out immediately. As I was sternly telling him he couldn't get in without his float, he stopped throwing a fit and stopped breathing.

I held him slumping in my arms while I yelled for my wife to call 911. He seemed to be faintly breathing and barely conscious while I hit his back and kept him awake. A minute later he was more with it and started crying. EMS got there and his lungs sounded fine. We're sitting in the Norfolk ER waiting on an X-Ray just to be sure. Honestly, we don't think he even got water in him and just coincidentally almost passed out from a breath holding fit.

So, yeah, thankful for my kids. For a surreal minute this evening I thought I was watching my son die in my arms.

The pool water was 85 and he was fine swimming in it for 30 minutes beforehand. He tried to get back in after eating a quick outside dinner but I pulled him out within a second or two. His sister stopped him on the stairs and I grabbed a second after that. He wasn't even unattended. The whole thing took place within about 5 seconds.

After I pulled him out he fussed a lot yelling "no!" at me, until about 30 seconds later when I got really stern with him. He often has a delayed breath preceding a big cry "(like all 2 year olds). I jokingly said "you gotta breath, buddy" then 3 seconds later my wife said "he's NOT breathing". He had his back to me and was sitting on the deck (positioned for me to put his float on him). I saw his little body kinda slump over and that's when I grabbed him and told my wife to call 911.

We've taken a lot of hits, we almost never made it to a country, we immediately fell into fighting and scrambling for loot, we tried to burn each other down and took an awful long time to recover, in some ways still haven't. And then that shit-bigot Wilson, and FDR and his corruption and power-mongering, and LBJ and self-righteous coward Carter and sellout Clinton and oh how to even describe Obama, and lots more inbetween.

At any one of these moments it could have been over, almost was. We don't claw back to the same place each time, sometimes with good reason, but we claw back to something.

I think there will be an end, but I don't think this is it. Maybe that's just because I'm not ready to say goodbye yet.

And I don't know how long the clawing will take or where it will go... sadly I don't think we're at the nadir of this particular hole. But I think it has one.

I think they will remember this in 100 years. Maybe not 200.

don't claw back to the same place each time, sometimes with good reason,
but we claw back to something.

419 I've been pretty angry all day. After the nice dinner we had, husband is watching the Braves, and I'm going to go lie down in the bedroom under the ceiling fan and take a mini-nap.

Funny. I feel exhausted this evening. And all I accomplished today was laundry and venting here.

421

You guys heard of this new meme-thing the dad-bod? It's new to me, anyway.

A dad-bod is short for a young man who has a dad body...no muscles and a beer gut. Here's why it's a thing: young men who work out are on the internet wondering why girls are attracted to guys with so-called dad-bods instead of them.

That's how things get started these days; it's weird. So, naturally, there are now lots of dad-bod videos on youtube with people sharing their stupid opinions on the inane issue.

422 I am presently thankful for Mr. Black, who went to the store, in the pouring rain, solely to get me a bag of Nutter Butters upon hearing I had a cookie craving. Also, spending this evening having fun watching some old Midnight Specials with Wolfman Jack. Circa '73. What a fun riot.

429 time to admit to ourselves that we're wrong about almost everything.

I'm talking total surrender.

Let them do and say whatever they want.

Anything and everything is fair game.

No more trying to explain a different point of view. Just agree and walk away.

They've won. We lost.

Game over man. Game over.

It's not surrender if you're wrong. We've lost so consistently, what else could be the explanation?

Maybe this is why all the so called Republicans in DC are doing what they're doing. They've admitted they're wrong and are trying to ease the small part of the country that hasn't admitted they're wrong into finally accepting that we're wrong and they're right.

There comes a time when one finally has to accept reality and that time is when you are outnumbered, out maneuvered and out played.

And this is that time.

Ace is right. Time to switch to being a Democrat. (but not a Hillary Democrat)

God please grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, The courage to change the things I can, And the wisdom to know the difference.

It's time.

Also, spending this evening having fun watching some old Midnight Specials with Wolfman Jack.

I was just thinking of Wolfman Jack this week!
I was gonna save mentioning Wolfman here for July 1st, the 20th anniversary of his passing.

As a kid, Wolfman Jack was really cool, but I didn't know why. I, like others, associated him with "the oldies" and Halloween. Wolfman Jack was like Elivira, just cool and famous for reasons unbeknownst to me.

You have no clue what I'm about or what I believe.

Never played devil's advocate?

Tossed out a contrary position to get every one agitated and energized and thinking about how wrong that position is and finding answers to a very important question: "why are we losing" and maybe thinking about what everyone should be doing such as "what's the answer to why we are losing".

Until we stop funding our enemies, stop playing by their rules, we'll always lose. That's a fact.

Yikes. Luckily I've never had BP issues, my body just gets to about 36 weeks and is like "yeah, we're done here".

This time though it's been more "let's torture you for two weeks with frequent, non productive contractions. Yay!"

I'm hoping if I get til tomorrow and I'm still not quite in active labor my doctor will just take pity on my poor chopped up uterus and deliver.

472 My problem with that attitude, Jakee, is where does it stop? It's gay marriage now. Then, what? Civil liberties? Elderly euthanasia? De-regulation of Medicare, food stamps?

Do we quit every fight because....it's just too hard?

Here is where we lost gay marriage.....on the gay marriage spectrum, there was a decent amount on the pro- gay marriage bandwagon. There was a much smaller amount on the vehemently anti-gay marriage side. And, there in the middle was a HUGE number of people who a) really just didn't care or b) Cared, but thought it would be futile and too hard to put up a fight.

But, you may be right. We may have lost the country and it may not be worth it to fight anymore.

498 Ace,

As I read your endorsement, I was prepared to ink a check to Mike Flynn to accompany my contribution to Ted Cruz.

But let's be honest at this point. What are we really fighting for? Who controls the $20 trillion in debt? Who gets to rubber stamp the paperwork for globalization? Who gets to appoint the Justices that uphold ACA, destroy marriage and the church, who gets to set the rate at which our rights and heritage are dismissed.

Your way doesn't work anymore. There is no more foundation. My ilk can no longer fight through channels, we are rebels. We will be hunted down one by one and removed by seizure of property, destruction of business and in the end family will turn on family, father against son, mother against daughter.

The only thing left now is prayer.

The country will survive. The bedrock--those ideals and blueprints that allowed us to flourish so and become the most exceptional country and people on the planet are yet existent.

They can NEVER be denied. They now are obscured by the layer of filth deposited on them by the left.

We WILL prevail though it will be a hard task.

Each of us, in whatever small, seemingly insignificant way must work toward this end.

Not sure if my remaining life will see the resolution of the problem--hope so, though.

But if you wish to quit on your country, just step out of the way, okay?

Cause I got work to do.

In case I forget on Book Thread Day: Got a book on North Korea called 'Under the Loving Care of the Fatherly Leader'. It's about the Kim dynasty. It's every bit as horrible as you can imagine.

HOWEVER, it is worth noting that despite cradle to grave propaganda, state surveillance, and death camps... People *still* recognize the fundamental fuck-upedness of what goes on there, and break out; despite the fact that they, in many cases, have literally no idea what the rest of the planet consists of.

The Norks can't keep a watertight seal, and they took their lessons from Stalin. The clownshow in DC doesn't stand a chance...

Your post just, in a strange way, made me realize what makes me happy.

It won't work. Their system won't work, it never will. They've built an engine that runs on unicorn farts, and there's not a single fucking unicorn in the whole world to power it, nor will their efforts to duct tape an empty toilet paper roll to a cow's forehead ever produce one.

That's a strange metaphor, I know, but their system is rooted in the denial of reality, and reality will make itself felt sooner or later. "When all this is accomplished and the brave new world begins, when all men are paid for existing and no man must pay for his sins, as surely as water will wet us and as sure as fire will burn, the Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return."

They can win in the short run, but even if they take the world, they can't hold it for more than a space of 80 years. That's the longest it's ever taken them to turn a rich country into a stuttering clusterfuck of total failure. You can stick a gun to people's heads and make them go along with a lie, you can even destroy and bury the truth, but you can't ever make a lie the truth.

These people want you demoralized, weakened, and to give up all hope so that they can continue to infest our institutions, churches, schools, and way of life to achieve their sick utopia that will never happen. Why won't it?

You are stronger and made from the stuff of our fore fathers no matter what your skin color, religion, or sexual preference you have - they can not box in a free person. Ever.

Hang tight dear ones as this devil and the ill it wishes upon our great country will have a fiery end and end up in the trash heap of ashes as so many before them.

Yes - great art, great books, great music. Really, there are so many things to feel grateful for. Ingratitude is the hallmark of the left - which is why no win is ever enough for them.

Right now, I'm feeling happy because I am listening to Bob Uecker and the Brewers are slaughtering the Twins 10-1 (in the 2nd inning!!!). Such moments of joy for Brewers fans this season are as rare as 75 degree days in Wisconsin in December and cherished accordingly.

624 Ok, so here's the thing: I'm so happy we have ace. I read drudge and ace. That's all I can take, seriously. I'm so thankful ace wades through it all and gives us the important stuff with some really good insight, and some damn good humor. I worry about him and his existential angst, mostly because I know he has a hard time defining his spirituality. Because quite frankly, these are the days, and weeks and years we really need it. If I did not sincerely believe that God's hand in all of this mess, I really would be depressed. I'm not espousing any particular religion or dogma, but this is all falling so fast, and all the forces are with it. In addition to that, there's just a spirit over this age that cannot be fought. And yet I feel a peace because I know that no man is going to come forward and save us. We will save ourselves by turning away from the crazy and finding the love for our families, and our friends, and the simple things that make us happy. It's love that will save us. Our actions, not our words. And God is going to do what God is going to do. And it will be for good.

However, he and his fellow travellers have only won a few battles and we Americans along with the Almighty God will win the war.

707 Donna and Phoenix Girl - Thank you. I am back in college (at my advanced age!) and studying again American and World History with an excellent textbook that tells the truth with no bias. The world and our dear America has really faced so much worse and has always come out stronger. I feel that these times are really testing us to see if we do have the internal faith and fortitude to fight the enemy within. I think we do. As history repeats, the Muslim hordes, fascists, communists, etc. stilll try - let them - we along with history will make sure they fail.

God bless the horde and the morons and 'ettes that keep us together. We may not always agree, nor should we, but we have a bond which is pretty special.

so watching true detective 2

made me look up the town of Vernon CA on wiki


holeefuk.

town of no parks, no schools and only industrial parks

only 90 people

the same man was mayor for 50 years. his family ran the town

and appointed all the other council members

and paid himself over 500,000 per year

the state tried to pass a law that prevented towns with under 150 residents from incorporating

the only town that would be affected was Vernon

and they could never pass the law

still a town

with an over paid mayor

for 90 people

who dont even live there

Easy.
Ours is not an easy life.
We strive not give in to base urges and desires.

Our values require decisions that set aside immediate gratification for long term good.

Ours is ia life with a moral code and compass that denies us many of the gratifications of the flesh.

And for those of us who profess a love of Christ, we even have Commandments, not suggestions.

Against that, the Prince of Darkness offers what?

I went to a small Catholic high school. The same education. The same conservative small-town upbringing. Same teachers, same priests. Same types of parents as my own- very conservative, very Catholic.

And, I have seen so many of my friends and schoolmates celebrating the decision. People who are active Catholics. People who are vehemently pro-Life. Some are really passionate about it. Others are much more quiet, talking about tolerance and what not.

Some went to college, but not ultra liberal state schools. Some didn't go to college at all. So, I have no explanation for why some people, with essentially the same upbringings, why their minds flip a switch.

As of today, it's not about us tolerating them, it's going to be about them not tolerating us. This has given them to tool to harass anyone and any organization that is not sufficiently compliant and accepting of this ruling.

It's about so much more than just going after churches who won't officiate the ceremony - it will be along the lines of their decades-long attack on the boy scouts for not supporting homosexuality. Any religious organization - schools, adoption agencies, etc. - that has any rules about whom they hire or serve, or how they expect them to behave (if along the church's teachings) will now be attacked (see: Catholic Charities adoption agency in Boston-oops, it no longer exists!). It's now about banishing dissent from polite society.

I remember back in the 1970s when a Greek ship docked in Philadelphia that had a swastika painted on its stern. It was light blue on a white background. I don't remember which way the arms pointed.

Swastika-like symbols were apparently common in cultures throughout the world. Carl Sagan, in his book "Comet", theorized that a close pass by a comet about 8000-9000 years ago was the inspiration. The nucleus passed close enough to Earth that the jets could be seen with the naked eye.

It's just his opinion, of course, but swastika-like symbols appeared in rock carvings around the world more or less simultaneously.

In Canada a lesbian couple sued the Knights of Columbus for not hosting their wedding reception shortly after SSM was legalized. It'd be foolish to think they don't already have a list of prime targets for lawsuits.

Now you covered a bunch of my good things. I was gonna start w/ my wife's fried chicken, since someone mentioned KFC, she's 10 times better.

But to be serious, what's good about America is that is I was lucky enough to be raised by a Midwestern family that taught me values and what our country was about.

I'll turn 60 later this year. I think my upbringing became less and less common throughout the succeeding years for various reasons. One of which were the Democrats but there were other dynamics involved.

903 The swastika is an ancient symbol found worldwide, but it is especially common in India. It can be seen in the art of the Egyptians, Romans, Greeks, Celts, Native Americans, and Persians as well Hindus, Jains and Buddhists.

The swastika's Indian name comes the Sanskrit word svasti, meaning good fortune, luck and well being.

In Hinduism, the right-hand (clockwise) swastika is a symbol of the sun and the god Vishnu, while the left-hand (counterclockwise) swastika represents Kali and magic. The Buddhist swastika is almost always clockwise, while the swastika adopted by the Nazis (many of whom had occult interests) is counterclockwise.

904 The Finns also used a version called the Hakristi, or Hooked Cross. If was different that the arms were shorter on the hooks. The symbol was adopted during the war of 1918-19 long before the na*is came to the scene.

My sister says it's grueling. She drove it when it wasn't completely paved. They say it's paved now. Hope they're right. We have The Milepost, and it's supposed to be the authority.

942 VB Johnny....so thankful your boy is ok! My two, with both sets of grandparents having a pool, living in Floriduh, land of lakes, canals, pools and ocean...they both learned how to come to top and float on their backs before they walked. I did not care that the pediatrician (the AMA) had determined you should wait until whatever. I wanted to grab them. This happened one time and he knew what to do. Later, by 1 1/2 they had lessons on same and were thrown in with clothes and shoes on and taught to swim to sides.

If they are taught early and gradually (without repeated dunkings so they swallow water and seize or die...which is why, due to dummies, the pediatricians at the time thought teaching babies was a no-no). I did not care, mine were going to swim early and they did. xoxo
