What I can count on in 2023 is DUers doing the right thing. And therefore saving freedom and democracy as we know it.
Let me leave you with an amusing anecdote recently found in an old Readers Digest which has no connection to Happy New Year but may give you a chuckle as I drone on.
How do you stop Canadian bacon from curling in your frying pan? Take away their little brooms.
You are Welcome and Good Night.

(27,587 posts)we were not in ICU on a vent, so comparatively speaking I guess it was mild. It was like the worst cold ever, lots of coughing, and congestion. Then the side effects of the meds kicked in and I had a terrible taste in my mouth and headaches. But all of that should end when I finish the Paxlovid tomorrow.
We were fully vaxxed and boosted which I am sure helped keep us out of the hospital.

(25,324 posts)Why? Because I am worried for Carlos Correia.
He hasn't signed a contract yet, and I am worried that he will have to decide to play either in the north or south.
He will have to decide whether to be North Correia or South Correia.

(25,324 posts)Turns out Carlos Correia was a Bissau-Guinean politician who was Prime Minister of Guinea-Bissau from 17 September 2015 to 12 May 2016. (Wikipedia). A fairly short careea. (career, in Boston accent).

(44,738 posts)Itll be a busy year ahead keeping up with all the chuckleheads and their big house majority. And there is always something up McConnell sleeve hell be pulling on. But as offensive as they may be their ineptness will keep them on the defensive. And many gophers rue the day they won that majority, cause its easier to bitch then to lead.
Lets rock and roll in 23.
