Is wine bullshit?

Don't get me wrong... I like wine, and even love it on occasion.

But it's like feng shui to me.... remember when Penn & Teller exposed THAT as bullshit?

Got to thinking about all this as I watched "Bottle Shock" on Netflix last night. (miss you, Alan Rickman!)

When we take over all three branches can we please go metric?

I mean, really.

Vacationed in Canada this past month and there are SO many things they laugh at us about.

Campaign slogan idea: "America is Better than This"

What do you think?

At debate I would make trump's head explode.

So could anybody else with even just a modicum of intelligence and gumption.

Moderator: "Do you support pay equality for women?"

Goodheart: "Well, I've never been accused of rape, and I've never been caught on tape assaulting women, so my perspective is probably different from that of my opponent's, but yes, of course."

Moderator: "Do you support prison reform?"

Goodheart: "Well, Michael Cohen is in prison for the exact same thing my opponent did, so, yes, of course, I would support reforms that mean equal treatment of criminals."

and so forth.

Honestly, I can't see that trump would ever agree to debate the Democratic nominee unless his narcissism tells him that he can conquer any stage..... OK, well, I guess I believe that he WILL agree to debate.

So my advice to the DNC? Don't pussyfoot. Go for the jugular. Make him have a siezure onstage.

I just witnessed a Jeopardy blunder

I thought the champion would go far. But his Final Jeopardy wager was weird.

The big news today was that for the first time in our history a man in the White House was branded

as racist.

But how does Fox News report this truly astounding development?

"The Democrat-controlled House of Representatives passed a resolution Tuesday evening condemning President Trump's "racist" remarks this weekend -- although the moment was largely overshadowed by a dramatic floor fight earlier in the day that ended with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi ruled out of order for a breach of decorum."


Want to know what's really shadowed, Fox? Your face by trump's ass.

I have enough balls to admit my speciesism.

I've heard some protest "I am not a speciesist! Some of my best friends have been dogs."

To which I've replied, "Don't be so gutless. Own your speciesism. I've had dog friends, too, but they're my inferiors. And if they don't like it they can go back to the pound they came from."

Public service announcement - regarding shaving

Are you getting up there in years?

Has your beard gone gray and very tough? Is shaving now a painful experience for you because of it?

Well, it was for me, too, until I discovered...........

Grapeseed Oil.

Seriously.... rub some grapeseed oil on your beard and neck. Let it condition your beard for about ten minutes, then shave with something like Edge shaving gel. (I use an old timey single blade razor).

What a difference.

I want Medicare for All, but for this election prefer Biden's plan

The way is very clear to me: make a Public Option so attractive that employers will start to drop out of providing healthcare insurance as an employee benefit.... and employees won't really care.
