32. I remember Thumper. I'll tell you, my Mom took me to see Bambi when it came

back into theaters in the early 60's, maybe 1963, like a lot of those classic Disney films do - cause it came out first in 1942. I was around five years old and Bambi scared the bejeezus out of me. I had dreams. His mother getting killed, the forest fire...that was SCARY stuff. I mean, right up there with the flying monkeys in Wizard of Oz. Did you know the book was banned in Nazi Germany because it seemed to Goebbels to be an allegory about the Jews?

Isn't it funny how the past sneaks up on us once in a while?

As to Lindsey - sure. Trump would throw everyone in the world under the bus without a second's hesitation if he thought he could benefit in some way. The guy has NO moral compass at all. None. He doesn't seem to be capable of any kind of empathy. Remember when he had to be coached to seem to feel sympathy for the school shooting survivors? Had to have a cue card.

So, yeah, one peep out of Lindsey too many and we can wave to him as the bus crushes him.
