Okay, okay, calm down. Have you heard the big news?
Okay, Ruth Bader Ginsberg died.
The president and Republicans want to push through a young right wing Christian woman who wants to put Christianity into all aspects of the law, wants to abolish the ACA, and a bunch of other stuff that will mean the end of, not civilization, just our democracy and way of life. Millions will be thrown off health care and unable to get it, and Roe v Wade will be overturned. All this means is that the unwanted pregnancies will go up, as will women dying in childbirth, and STDs will increase. The poor, unable to seek health care due to cost will get sicker and die sooner, but “Hey?” Wasn’t that the Republican healthcare plan all along? Remember Alan Grayson standing on the House floor saying just that years ago? Well, now it has a super chance of coming to pass.
What about Covid? It’s on the rise in many states. The president although begged not to hold rallies continues to do so. Dubbed by some as “super spreader events.” So what? He’s on a stage away from “those disgusting people” as he call them.
Did you love the debate? What debate? There was none. Trump played the bratty child and Wallace didn’t know what to do. The best was Trump going on about wildfires in California. How they didn’t clean up their forest floors, etc. Following the debate, a doctor talking about Covid mentioned that 60% of the fires in California are on National lands. That’s the Federal government. That’s Satan’s responsibility. Hum. Wonder if he even know that? Would it matter? When it comes to actually doing the job, be it president, business man, or deal maker – he’s terrible.
Actually, he’s worse than terrible. He’s clueless.
I’ll make two suggestions for the upcoming debates. One – a mute button. Some have said Satan would never agree to it. That’s fine. He doesn’t have to show up. Two – have each candidate answer questions in separate rooms, use a split screen.
Okay, on to the big news. The septic system is working again! Want details? Nobody cares, except my brother, who is fascinated by this kind of stuff, and I might add, was very helpful with just-in-time information and guidance. There were a number of fortunate discoveries and information acquired just as it was needed. Want to hear about it? Still, “No!” huh? Well, okay, my friend Frank said it looks like I was in deep do-do. I said, “No, not after the guys came and pumped out the tank,” I was only in shallow do-do. (Ha ha ha, sure you don’t want to hear about it? Okay. Nevermind.
You want the big news? And this is incredible. I just saw the headline this morning and haven’t had time to really dig into it. Here’s the headline, “Mickey O’Rourke unveils himself as Masked Singer contestant in bizarre twist”
Yeah, I know. Right? Who knew Mickey O’Rourke could sing? Who knew he was still alive? Incredible.
I know what you’re thinking, “Is that if?”
As they say on TV, “But wait, there’s more.”
On September 29, 2020 at 11:20 pm I became a grandfather. EmmettLeo McCartney was born to Jon Hunter McCartney and Katherine Marie Kinnaird: 9lbs 10oz.
He reportedly “has his mother’s lungs and his father’s disposition.” All are well. We get to see the little one Lion King Style (ie socially distanced) in a week.
