This made me smile.

I just got back from grocery shopping in my rubyred northern Wisconsin county. Walked into the liquour dept for some wine - on both sides of the wine aisle were hand-written yellow Post-It notes. Written in red marker:

Fuck Trump !!!

Fuck ICE !!!


Like I said, it made me smile.

Yes ruby red for decades.
They spent the entire phone call bitching about Trump.
I only said I TOLD YOU SO a couple of times.

I hope they all get very miserable very quickly. And that includes my brother in a Chicago suburb. (I was born and raised in Chicago and moved up here decades ago - before the Repug invasion.)

My brother has always been an idiot, so it was no surprise when he turned maggot. I cut off communication when he accused me of being a brainwashed liar. (Just to think - he was training to be a Catholic priest at one point!)

There is only one correct way, and "I" have it and YOU don't. Period. End of any discussions. Works for politics as well as religion.

I feel sad for people that can't laugh at themselves. I have to laugh at my own self all day long.

Come to think of it, I have a lot of those Post-it notes - and can easily get a red marker. Maybe I can make someone else smile.

. . . at a major craft store.

I wandered around, found a display of alphabet blocks.

You know the rest of the story.


We are still digging out from snow, car was crappy with mess on outside and inside. Ran it through the car wash where all the workers are Hispanic. I ordered from Amazon a 4-inch diameter magnet that has ICE in a red circle with red slash through it. Three of the workers saw it, gave me thumbs up.

Amazon: 2-Pack NO ICE Car Magnet

or the applique letters in the sewing department. What a grand hobby (especially in Hobby Lobby)!
