Just re-watched "Purple Rain."

Boy do I miss Prince, his energy, and his music.

What an unfathomable loss.

Lee Atwater's playbook is still echoing from the grave.

CRT is the new Willie Horton.

Disgusting and vile tactic. Remains so.

Did my duty today.

I actually voted by mail. But I drove by a block near the where a poll is located and saw MAGATS protesting, basically, democracy. I drove by slowly and probably flimm-flammed them with my military ball cap and, essentially being an old white man, because they looked rather surprised with my vociferous bird salute.

Best costume I heard about.

A kid shows up to the door in regular clothes. Around his neck is hung a sign that reads
“My costume is stuck somewhere in the Supply Chain.”

From the most desperate comes the most kindness.

I was out doing support (basic living items) for the Unsheltered today. We encouraged folks coming through to take all they needed. One man, who appeared to be in desperate shape, said, "no I don't need that much, I want to make there is plenty for people coming after me."

From the poorest emerges the most kindness.

Driving is just great.

Soooo, I was driving on my residential street being tailgated by a fire engine red Porsche.

I didn’t move right because I knew what was ahead, Mr. Porsche didn’t. He zoomed around the right and almost crashed into substantial road closure materials (no workers).

I zoomed past him as he stopped inches from the barrels.

I believe my Prius was snickering.

Auf Deutsch.

Heard Today. LOL.

If Zuckerberg had just Meta girl in High School he wouldn’t be ruining the world today.

As Progressives fight to get the BBB plan passed one of the obstacles

they face is Sinnemancha might calculate that passing nothing at all plays better with their voters than passing both bills.
Sinnemancha might be wrong in this thinking, but they could be considering it.

That's about right. Unfortunately.

My wife noticed a gentlemen who walks at the same time everyday. She noted today he wasn't out on his walk and she asked him why?

He said he's not walking because his Fitbit isn't working.

We remain, in fact, screwed.
