New Year's Eve snuck up on me again. I heard explosions outside and just figured someone was hunting late. I wasn't even aware it was Sunday until a few minutes ago. My side hurts and I don't know what I've done. I've been coughing a lot lately, maybe that's it. I write this because I've … Continue reading

I have no title.
I keep telling myself that thinking "nobody cares" really isn't fair, but it's getting harder to believe when there's no one else trying to convince me otherwise. I'll be glad when this is all over.

Just a little nothing from Tumblr about the whole "87,000 IRS Agents" doo-lolly. Long story short, unless you want the IRS spending time auditing folks that work at catfish farm at a higher rate than someone who works for Homeland Security, more IRS agents is a good thing. They probably won't come for you and … Continue reading Tuesday, January 17, 2023
It’s about a filibuster.

You know, I had a plan.
I did have an idea about what to do with myself - a plan, if you will - when I hit 50. Inspired by the otherwise tedious Assassination Tango, staring the usually much more interesting Robert Duvall, I'd plan on doing that. Not the assassinating or even the tangoing, but I had planned on learning … Continue reading You know, I had a plan.

There isn't much pulling on my attention today, so I'm giving it a miss. We're dealing with some nasty weather down here in Enon Holler but it seems the worst is blowing through. Trump is actively asking Putin for dirt on the Bidens, but I don't think much will come out of that. The chicanery … Continue reading Wednesday, March 30, 2022

This is merely a placeholder. I'm not feeling up to any wisdom or venom concerning the News of the Day. If something pops up, maybe then.

I don't really have anything. The Russian Invasion plods to its third week. Now the claim is there were Biolabs in Ukraine and Russia was just trying to get rid of them. The Q-folks throw in a little of the worldwide pedophile ring into the story. There's no evidence for any of this, of course, … Continue reading The Weekend: March 12-13, 2022
