Just heard that the Governor of Mississippi says he is willing to consider a ban on contraception ..

... I know that when I was a young person that if some erstwhile authority figure had codified that for me, I would have stopped having sex immediately...without a doubt! Especially if it came from someone who looked like he couldn't get lucky in Vegas on an unlimited expense account. We need to thank him for figuring that out for us..not only for his state..but for the country. So easy, so simple!

Is This Where I Come To Nominate Someone Deserving Of A Pardon?

...If so, I would like to see a full pardon for Rand Paul's Neighbor...and maybe the Medal of Honor as well? I mean the Big Boy has a full day on his hands...He could strike a symbolic blow for decency, metaphorically speaking..... though I may just be already growing nostalgic and wistful for one last round of insane bullshit... Thank you...

H.R. McMasters is on Morning Joe flacking his new book and he is refusing to embrace the problem..

...before us. He says generals and presumably other brass should not engage in politics. What the hell was he doing in the White House serving that questionable bot cell we now have? I am old luckily, but if anyone sees this totalitarian destruction later as history I would suppose that he and several others will be judged as ineffectual quasi-superintendents of one of the greatest fails in modern history. Brave man, war hero, but finally a weak kneed coward no more of a patriot than Ted Cruz or Lindsey Graham..

I may have just solved a 31/2 year old mystery......

...Maybe it has been uncovered prior to this. But has anyone reflected on why Trump's primary healthcare provider is a gastroenterologist? Well, could it maybe be that a colonoscopy was all anyone would ever need to assess the entire individual (#1?), and any conditions he may or may not have had. State Of The Colon... And I'll bet the pictures were flattering......Just supposing here, but how else to explain it?

I Just Heard Secretary Munchkin and His Wife Have Moved Into Trump Tower....

...and I'm wondering about the road ahead for them there. It is known for instance that the landlord doesn't appear to like dogs and has never owned one himself. (Think about that one for a minute.) So it crossed my mind what he might have to say about the tenant's wife's litter of Dalmatian Puppies. Wishing them well on their journey and hoping they don't have to go into protracted arbitration...I for one would anguish over that looming possibility.....

He says, constantly, 'I've got a good feeling about this....'

Well, I don't, but I do have an observation: I have always felt that maybe the best way to handle rash bullies and instigators was to stand back and let them keep talking. Thus, if anything gives me hope for November it is the emergence of someone in the national spotlight to indicate, even oblivious to the actual import of their messages themselves possibly, the frailties and frightful dangers we face.

Now, I believe that individual is in fact INDIVIDUAL #1. Thus, I am not surprised. I just hope against hope that most all of us can make it through until...he "just washes over, "and away. far far away...

So a potentially lifesaving ship is held up for.....

...trump to come in for a photo op? What could be wrong with that????????? Evil perhaps?

I think I've got this straight, seriously ......

I just watched the daily briefing and sat there wondering once again why I did, when I got a call from my budtender. My wife and I are seventy-three, both with health issues, and he tells me that if we need anything, anything at all like from the store or help he will be willing to do it to keep us safe and healthy. I realized that my dealer cares more about me than my president. I feel like crying for two reasons.

Stormy Weather....

.. I truly am glad for the rumored offer of $1200 which could do a lot of people at least a bit of good for several weeks or maybe a month. But is there this shared creeping suspicion that t(HE)y are following a familiar pattern here (?) Next is Loads of gushing praise and heartfelt gratitude for too little too late. Are we being paid off, bribed? Damned if I'm not an elderly, happily married grandfather who keeps waking up in the middle of the night feeling like Stormy Daniels.. It is not a good feeling. So I guess we'll all be asked to keep it on the Down Low. Or maybe Take the Money and Run? Ultimately nasty phone calls from Michael Cohen? Oh wait, I think you can refuse a call from the pen. It gets better....maybe....
