    In just-declassified 1981 note, Margaret Thatcher refuses to take male panda on her Concorde to DC to mate with US female panda: “I am not taking a panda with me. Pandas and politicians are not happy omens!"pic.twitter.com/giTBlm9Qor

        "Happy omens" or "love omens"...? (Or might the next to last word be something else entirely?)

        The full audio podcasts are posted each day. If you tell your podcast app to download and save, you’ll have the back catalog. (I suppose this is also possible with a DVR.) I find it useful to go back into archive sometimes, and being an Xer, I don’t mind re-runs.

        Not to mention taking a panda over state lines for illicit purposes in violation of the Pan Act.

        Trump should consider traveling with a panda...perhaps handcuffed to one at all public appearances. It would make him look more dignified.

        First she helped ban English clubs from competing in Europe and now that. What a lousy person Thatcher was.
