TALENT'Y

Ah, you know, these guys are just cute.  If it's a set-up or not, I don't know.  But I'm a sucker for some of these Got Talent, clips.  I still cry at  Susan Boyle, I Dreamed A Dream.    What?  You thought I had a heart of stone?  I don't!

Last Wednesday, Theresa May on invitation to govern from Queen Elizabeth II, became Britain's new prime minister.  This Brexit is a big deal, lots of change over there, David Cameron resigned, Brit's have differing view of the best next move.  Nonetheless (perhaps with that 'stiff upper lip,' those folk have always been so good at), May said "Britain would 'rise to the challenge ...' " of all there is ahead.    news
