39, whoever wins PCH's $5000 for life donates it to DU to ensure our future
40, Betty White is reincarnated as a friendly doberman puppy

OK, I realize a few are just plain silly, but some are going to become true because there's a BIG BLUE WAVE
coming in the midterms and we'll control both houses.

As the Jan 6th Select Committee exposes more of the repug's shenanigans and all their efforts to suppress
the truth from seeing the light of day, the independent voters in the middle who decide all elections will
want to punish them and will side with Democrats. Do not allow naysayers to convince you of anything else.

Hope this brought a few smiles and a better outlook to the future, remember a glass half full is better than
one half empty.

'Cause that's what I would need to have faith in any of this anymore.

Until Trump is arrested, I am expecting the collapse of our democracy.

That's been a thing for years . . .

When typing, near the keyboard.

Most phones have it now. It’s pretty neat when tossing off a quick message.
