   I find TDS to be tedious. Some GOP’s prefer genteel losers helping to destroy America to a bruiser whose wins are overturning the bureaucratic state. Next time around, Donald, don’t pick a cabinet of people who might fit the office, pick a bunch whose sole job will be to shrink the bureaucracy by 75%. Starting with DEI.

   When I need an appointment I just go to the website, pick a caregiver, pick a date and time. 5 minutes tops. What backward place do you all live?

   What’s the big deal. The ruling says if you want bump stocks outlawed, outlaw them the normal way – by Congress passing a law and the President signing it. The problem was with the original law that was overly specific in its definitions. Why do some people always want unelected people to do their dirty work? Oh, that’s right – political cowardice.

   You are the perfect Biden voter if you think this is the best economy we’ve had in decades. Inflation is terrible, but, because of overspending by the current administration, we are teetering on the edge of a financial abyss. We were energy independent, we are no longer. Pretty soon no one will be able to afford to drive – not simply because of high gas prices, but because of EV mandates. We’ve taken on millions of unskilled people who are tearing holes in our safety net. We have not increased our electrical energy supply while demanding we shut down alternate sources of energy in transportation and home use. Tens of thousands of businesses did not survive the lock downs. Office real estate kept adding supply as the demand not only stopped growing, but actually began to reverse. Builders were caught in a terrible dilemma, building offices that might never see a tenant, all because the money had already been allocated. But no one wants to work in an office anymore. When that market collapses it will be a financial black hole. But keep telling yourself you live in the best of all possible worlds (and if you get that reference, I will be totally shocked).

   What percent chant “From the river to the sea” and can’t name the river or the sea or place Israel on the map? In Journalism school in the 70’s, on the first day of class prof gave a quiz – a blank map of Europe which the students had to label. It being Minnesota, almost all the students got Norway and Sweden correct – but no others. And the map was a lot easier then. The Soviet Union is now seven different European nations, Yugoslavia is now 7 different nations, and Czechoslovakia split in half. They couldn’t name the UK, Ireland, France or Spain, let alone Andorra or San Marino. They tried to explain that journalists were supposed to be generalists at which point the prof yelled, exasperatedly, “That means you’re supposed to be generally knowledgeable, not completely ignorant. You’re not supposed to be tabulae rasae.”I laughed, being the victim of 12 years of Catholic schooling and three years of Latin classes. I also got 100% on the quiz. So I guess this is nothing new.

   We’re in our 70’s. Once a month we get a letter from the Neptune Society. It’s like being circled by buzzards.

   They had a weak spine long before Trump. Or have we all forgotten Boehner getting a TEA Party fueled victory in Congressional elections and IMMEDIATELY walking back any promise of conservative changes being made. Right now, Trump is the only Republican WITH a spine.

    To get permanent marker off non-porous surfaces paint over the permanent marker with an erasable white board marker. It will dissolve the “permanent” ink and you can then wipe both off with a dry cloth.
