Thanks Clod. This is the third time this has happened but all's well that ends well.

It is really hard to figure out who is the worst member of the Porcupine Presidency.

I have a new email address, When I try to change it, it asks for a password, which it then calls "wrong most recent PW" or some such. I think that if I try for a new password, it will get sent to the old email addy, which no longer works. Catch 22.

This thread needs a boost every six months or so.
I have heard enough of "Thank you SO much."
I got it yesterday for holding a door.
And this morning on a radio interview introduction. "Thank you so much for joining us." "Thank you so much for having me."

My local VA photographs suspicious skin lesions and sends them 75 miles away for a dermatologist to look at.
Then, of course, you have to drive the same distance for follow-up and again for treatment(s).

I think the best description of the US's current condition is a psychotic break. 
And such are really tough to fix.

Girls in my era often got smallpox vaccinations on their thighs so the little (sometimes not so little) scars would not show while wear sleeveless blouses or gowns.

For a while, I was able to overlook Fetterman's wonky views and behavior. I was wrong.

XO Bruce and I had many back and forths about cars. 
I miss them and this brought them, and him, to mind:

Zelenskyy cooly and calmly kicked their butts.
And he continued in a Fox interview.
It is hard to believe that Trump and Vance could exceed expectations about how low they can go.

Don't be surprised.  King Donald told us he had a plan to end the "war" in Ukraine.

Name one thing he has gotten right in his entire life.

"Progress" in the IT world is moving backwards.
I am currently using a mishmash of Mircosoft, HP, Bing and more.
It is constantly trying sell me something that I can't live without (like McAfee).
I have basically hated this POS since I discovered it didn't come with word processing, the basis of home computing.

When I was at Benning School for Boys in the 60's, they had a lengthy program on the subject.
In that special Army way it became: "Pussy Coming at Us."

We are in the early stages of what may be a successful coup.
A group of rich white men fronted, but not led, by Donald Trump has turned a narrow electoral victory into a frenzy of grabbing control of every level of the US government.
With workable majorities in the Congress and the Supreme Court at their beck and call and total access to the White House, this cabal has outsmarted the American populace (and the Constitution too so far) and is on the way to cementing power.
It is now just a race between an irreversible takeover and what resistance may develop.
They are ahead right now.
