   I can’t imagine Marigold doing something as dark as what Phoebe is thinking… and that the phrase leads most of us to think. I had a dog that we got to replace one we inherited from my dad’s folks. Unfortunately the new dog was nowhere near as smart or lovable as the first. The only thing the two had in common was their breed. The new one “went to a farm” but I don’t know, after all these years, what that truly meant as my dad actually knew many farmers. I never thought to ask until just now, and unfortunately it’s too late; dad – and mom – have been gone for years.

   It has a handle, i think, so perhaps a coal scuttle? Not sure that makes sense but that’s what it looks like.

   And what’s the story behind that band-aid that’s always on SPG’s head.

   I assume you say woke because you can’t spell the big words like compassionate? The real incompetence is in thinking being woke is a bad thing. Or thinking a short term soldier with the rest of the man’s clear inadequacies is suddenly better than a former general or that he can suddenly run one of the world’s largest agencies? Unbelievable. Or it would be if we didn’t already understand MAGATS.

   Nonsense. If you were being replaced by a bully who announced to the world that his highest priority – even higher than, you know, actually running the country – was retribution, and who appointed an FBI director with no qualifications for that job except he said he would get your son, then you’d do what you could to protect your son. Not to mention that your hero is “hooking up” sterling folks such as felons he’s previously pardoned and others who are so unqualified that even the GQP is balking at confirming them. Even given MAGA’s well known hypocrisy, it has no room to say a single word about quid pro quo when they elected a fool who expressly stated that everything he does is transactional. Everything.

   Which might be where the idea to test it on patients came from. Otherwise who would think to research the “efficacy of video game therapy on the mental recovery of status post trauma victims” or some such. You know, gotta make it sound good to get research funding!

   I’ve long said that if coffee tasted as good as it smelled, I’d drink it. It doesn’t, so I don’t.

   Or look at an aerial photo of Rio Rancho, NM right outside of Albuquerque; same thing. A friend who lived there told me a similar story about how the town started as a land sales scam marketed to NY and NJ retirees with lots of roads being graded but never paved. I don’t remember much more of the story but it actually became successful and is one of NM’s larger cities. There is supposedly a movie about the whole thing but I don’t remember the name of that either.
