67-Lona

Although Lona has been visiting from Care2 for well over a year, she started commenting here only recently, so this is her very first Big Mouth Award.  She brings us a unique perspective, as she divides her home between The Netherlands and Queensland, Australia.  Nevertheless, she displays a knowledge of American politics that should put most Americans to shame and a level of wisdom that is a rare find anywhere.  She enjoys sending me naps, when I am tired, and those naps are so high in quality that she frequently causes me to oversleep. 😉

Please join me in piling on the hugs and kudos.  Also, please send warm thoughts her way, as she just arrived in Australia, and climate change is freezing her tail with unseasonably cold weather.  I have no doubt that more awards are coming her way, and am thankful for her participation here.

  1. Kudos Lona!

  2. Lona, i can't tell you how glad I am to see you in this spot.  Many people have said that your knoledge edudates Americans about their own country, and so it does.  But may I add you educate us even when there is some little thing you don't know?  Because it is always so interesting it sends us into researching it – and everyone benefits.  Keep the mouth big!

  3. Congrats Lona! 

  4. Now that's a big surprise! I'll have to stay indoors a little longer otherwise my blush will start a wild fire in the dry grasses around the house. Thank you for the very flattering introduction, TomCat, it feels good to be appreciated. But surely you must know how that is, we all appreciate you so much for the marvelous work you do, come scorching heat or freezing cold and in bad as well as good health.
    And thank you for all the kind comments, my friends… starting to blush again…
     

  5. Congrats!  Always appreciate your Antipodal and Dutch perspectives – especially since both are so much more mature than a good deal of what some of us Yanks offer (I'm looking at you, Teabaggers!)

  6. Congratulations Lona on the "BIG MOUTH" AWARD. lol. Your comments always make for an interesting read. 

  7. Congratulations, Lona.  I really enjoy your comments and very often end up researching something you have shared with us.  You are educating me!

  8. And, this has nothing to do with the mouth, but heartiest congratilations on your federal judge who just threw out the permit Tony Abbot gave to the Indian coal mine.  Yay!

  9. Well done Lona!  You have a wonderful and fresh perspective on American politics, and you're not afraid to talk about it.  I think that is something we non Americans can do . . . shine a light!  Kudos indeed!!!

  10. Congratulations Lona – a very well deserved award!  Your comments are always so insightful and so worth reading – and it is so good to have a view of the world from another part of Europe (and frequently Australia!).
