I'm running late and I've had a day. With that in mind, we'll pop open Google News and see if anything is interesting. Unfortunately, it doesn't look that way. Ah, well. Fake it 'til you make it, I guess. As I said the other day, I really try to keep my nose out of the Israel/Palestine business. Part … Continue reading Friday, May 21, 2021

Even though he's been out of office for almost six months now, the foul stench of the fart that was the Trump Administration lingers in the air. Much as I hate to, we need to take another big ol' whiff because the news is buzzing. Hold your nose. Where to start? Let's do this chronologically. … Continue reading Wednesday, May 19, 2021

Boy howdy, I let time slip up on me. No real good excuse beyond I started reading and fell asleep. The Network Of Time, if you're curious. Fascinating book but reading about complicated quantum mechanics always turns my brain into mush. Yes, I'm still pissed off about the state supreme court killing Initiative 65 stone dead for, from I can tell, … Continue reading Monday, May 17, 2021

Yep. I'm still pretty pissed off about the shit the Mississippi Supreme Court pulled Friday. I'm still pretty agitated at the implications of the ruling and increasingly furious about the possible reasons why the whole thing went down. But concerning the governmental structure of Mississippi and just why it's so hard to do anything the … Continue reading The Weekend: May 15-16, 2021

In a move that surprised absolutely no one, the Mississippi Supreme Court ruled in favor of a frivolous lawsuit that tossed out an overwhelmingly popular voter initiative passed last election, effectively changing the state's Constitution. The decision negates the direct will of the citizens of the state of Mississippi and is based on archaic wording that previously … Continue reading Friday, May 14, 2021

Usually, I keep the bad weather alerts for Enon Holler World Headquarters and the surrounding environs. However, my old home New Orleans got some plenty bad wind last night and since my heart is still there, we need to look in. Apparently, it all started in the wee hours this morning in the Uptown area, around Carrolton … Continue reading Wednesday, May 12, 2021

Getting a late start today, but what the hell. Showing that he has about as much originality as he has decency, Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves announced today the state would be opting out of the federal unemployment extension by June 12. In this, we join Montana, South Carolina, Arkansas, and Alabama in cutting out that extra $300 … Continue reading Monday, May 10, 2021

I pretty much checked out all day today as I'm still recovering from Thursday's all-night Actual Paying Work session. That and we've got another thunderstorm front that's moved in. So the way I figure, this has been a day worth ignoring. I gave Momma a hug this morning and figured that was in. Anyhow, let's … Continue reading The Weekend: May 8-9, 2021

Look, y’all. I stayed up all night last night getting a mess of Actual Paying Work done, the first big wad I’ve had since December. Therefore, I checked out the rest of the day and only paid the slightest bit of attention. Furthermore, I’m still a bit fuzzy-headed. It’s true what they say about middle … Continue reading Friday, May 7, 2021

After a brief respite, the storms that whipped on the Deep South earlier in the week came back in full force. The area was a little wider and folks as far as North Carolina had to deal with the nasty weather. Here closer to home, a business in Fulton - the county seat of Itawamba … Continue reading Wednesday, May 5, 2021
