Seven years ago, I came across this funny little exchange representing the challenges of being Santa Claus in this brave new world. I thought I would repost it today as a humorous break from the current misery. Enjoy. Dear Santa, How are you? How is Mrs. Claus? I hope everyone,

The good news and the bad news ( Part 1)
I’ve been holding off posting anything because I wanted to watch the outcome of Trump’s efforts to pull off a coup de etat following the election. I was anxious and am still worried that Trump would try to steal the election and usurp the results to ensure he stays in

The 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month. Today is Armistice Day, Veterans Day, and Remembrance Day. Almost 100 million dead in the Wars of the 20th and 21st centuries-an astounding number. “Either war is finished-or we are.“ I do understand the difference between Veteran’s Day and

I’ll have several posts up this week commenting on the election and its implications. Celebrating this weekend was awesome – I can’t tell you how much of a weight has been lifted by knowing that the Orange Monster lost the election. (Despite his protestations, this is not 2000, and Trump

The mission of this Allied Force was accomplished at 11:25 EST, 07 November 2020. It’s been four LONG years. Years of misery and anger. Years of astonishment watching the norms of American society attacked again and again. Watching worthless slime, like Adolf Eichmann Stephen Miller, commit atrocities and crimes against

I have not slept much in the last couple of days. That comes with repeatedly waking up and hoping that Pennsylvania has been called for Biden and we can send the orange monster on his way to perdition. However I don’t think that is going to happen today and I

I wrote this post 4 years ago on the eve of the election. It’s truly frightening that we are here again. Nothing has really changed- and it’s worth re-reading. That’s where the land of my birth is today. Remember this scene from the end of the movie, Wall Street? That’s

I have not had a “normal” Presidential election since 2000, where coming into November, I did not feel anxiety and fear in the lead up to election day. Especially since 2012, when it became apparent that some 42% of Americans were truly committed to wanton cruelty. 2016 was just sheer

So. It’s 2020 and another election cycle. That means it’s time once again to comment on yet another Nancy Mace political campaign. It’s now been ten years that she has been either running for office or scheming to run for office, and she still has placed herself on the side

A worthless man, you know very little about, achieved his long-stated goal of destroying the United States tonight. That man is Leonard Leo, former head of the Federalist Society: Leonard Leo is on the brink of achieving the goal he has been working toward for decades: a lasting conservative supermajority on the
