Don’t worry, the doctor only suffered a minor concussion.

Well, they kept him in there longer than I thought they would.

Off to find the medicine cabinet.

In Duke we trust

BREAKING NEWS ALERT! DUKE HAS ESCAPED! Story at 11.

So what took him so long…lol

Dang…I lose more patients that way…

Darn computer malfunction. Anyway, I had a comment referring to trump as a so-called potus. I referred to him as such due to the fact trump recently called a federal judge a “so-called judge.” This was the context in which I used the phrase. Am I in denial still? (as DHG asked) Well, I would say that many of us are still in denial regarding trump. Hence the movement against trump being referred to as the resistance movement, an homage to the the resistance movement in Europe during WWII. The fact is that there are several high level investigations going on in regard to trump and his involvement with Russian espionage. It is true that the GOP is in charge of everything now, which makes this not such a slam dunk in terms of bringing trump down. Will trump get away with using Russian espionage during the election? Perhaps. As Bill Maher stated last night, it is hard to tell since he does have that magic R next to his name. He may just get away with anything.

Recently, trump referred to the press as “the enemy.” Wow, that doesn’t sound fascist at all does it? The press is not the enemy as I stated. I view the current potus as the enemy, as do many others.

Amen to both!
