And it did look like he timed the stairs so that he could jog up them, pausing at the bottom until Jill was inside the plane.

Nice work Joe and Jill.

And that's the kind of stuff people notice. Like after the debate, Melania went up on stage & stood next to Don the Con. And then they stood there and looked at the camera. Dr. Jill went up to Joe, embraced him, patted him on the back, and then they stood there holding each other for a few beats. They're real. Donald and Melania looked like cardboard cutouts.

Mon Oct 5, 2020, 02:24 PM
Oct 2020

I was already skeptical about the whole church and religion thing anyway, even at 5, but a fear of stairs is a difficult fear. They're hard to avoid completely, ya know? And after nearly 60 years I'm used to dealing with it. But I got it that day on those church stairs, and while I have managed it pretty well, I don't take them at the rate Joe takes them or without my hand firmly holding the rails.

There is a home video of me walking down a 2 or 3 foot high ramp. I am clutching the rope hand rail like a life preserver. I was about 4 years old. I did ok with stairs until I got bifocals.

Mon Oct 5, 2020, 03:20 PM

One of the most terrifying things I ever witnessed as a child was him riding a bicycle.

He's laughing his head off and he's going to die!!!

By some miracle he did not.

The Army Air Corp, in it's great wisdom, did not let him fly their planes.

They did train him to be a mechanic, and then an engineer. He was an officer in World War II. He had a big black car and an enlisted driver. It was one of his duties to carry a "get out of jail free" card for misfits deemed essential to the war effort. So far as I know he only made it so far as Alaska, which was pretty good for a kid who thought of Cheyenne Wyoming as the Big City he'd run off to, a city that did not live up to his expectations.

He met my grandma in Hollywood. She and her sister had run off from the Northern California dairy industry for similar reasons.

My grandfather was later an Apollo Project engineer. Bits of his metal took men to the moon and back. Some of these bits of metal are in the Smithsonian, others on the moon.

He never talked about World War II stuff. It was all tied up in secrets.

His great pride was the Apollo stuff. He'd always talk about that.

I don't think Trump is that kind of klutz. I can't picture him riding a bicycle and laughing his head off. And we all know what Trump thinks of military service.

“I’ll never be riding a bicycle,” said President Trump, adding that his worry wasn’t about balance, bone spurs or bicyclists’ tan, but injuries: “I’m not getting hurt riding a bicycle.”

Show VP Biden bounding up steps and bike riding on one side and Mango with the TP, umbrella, gasping, needing help down the ramp on the other side.

Saturate Ohio, Wisconsin etc with it.
