and I am often suspicious of people who say they do. However,
I went to the nail salon today. It is the same place I have been going for ten years.
The nail tech sitting behind me, a fiftyish Asian gentleman with perfect English, begin speaking to his client and a few women who were waiting. He was speaking about Kavanaugh. He stated that he believed Kavanaugh. He said something probably happened to Dr. Ford, but it was someone else, not Kavanaugh. He said she was confused, and why did she wait thirty years anyway.
I had had enough. I turned around and said, very loudly, "When that happens to a woman, and she is acquainted with the person, she KNOWS who did it. And why did she wait thirty years? Most women NEVER tell. You are dead wrong."
I know perfectly well he heard me. But he said to his client, "What did she say?" The woman repeated my words. The place went dead quiet.
Seriously, a man who works primarily with women would say that?
When the young woman had finished my pedicure, she said the man over there would do my manicure. I said, "Which one?" She indicated the other gentleman, not the asshole. I said okay.
A couple of minutes later, the asshole walked past me, muttering that he read his newspaper, and that was all he knew. I gave him the dirtiest look I could muster.
I will continue going to this business, because they do a good job and are generally pleasant. But that asshole will never touch my nails.
I am not sure how I feel about Avenatti, but he is right about one thing: BASTA!
I did other things today. I gave campaign buttons to a youngish Democratic gentleman, and told him about a Meet the Candidates event next week. I discussed early voting with him. I recruited an election judge. We need Democratic election judges quite badly in my area.
Not a bad day. GOTV.
