Joe really oughta keep these to himself, but he what the hay…

I cannot think of time in recent history, the history I personally remember, that we have needed good leadership more for this country and the world in general than now. Instead we are stuck with Effingham Trump whose leadership quality approaches nil.

I’m on I-64 headed east into St. Louis city proper. My whole trip was well within the metropolitan St. Louis area. I am doing about 70 mph. The speed limit through here is 60 mph. A brand new Jaguar convertible goes screaming by me in the far left passing lane. He (she?) is doing 80 or 85 mph at least. Obviously, someone cutting up in their new ride. However, the effect was more or less negated as this person had their left turn signal on the whole time I could see them.
Which reminds me of what I told me daughter-in-law one time. She pointed out to me that my turn signal was still on. I replied, “I’m over 65, and by law I am legally entitled to leave it one for as long as I feel the need.”
I wonder if our Jaguar speedster was legally entitled.

I watched a bit of an old (is there any other kind) Marx Brothers movie. Every time Groucho did some of his trademarked bits, I felt like it was Groucho Marx channeling Alan Alda channeling Groucho Marx!

Raise you hand if after two years of hype, you thought the total eclipse of the sun anticlimactic…
Robin and I were at Pho Grand waiting to be seated. It was a nice night and we were sitting on the bench just outside the entrance anticipating our number coming up. As we sat there a family was leaving. It consisted of both parents, and two children. I only discovered the gender of one child from her voice as I would have had to turn around to see them. The father and daughter were discussing whether or not a bath before bedtime was needed. The father was of the opinion that one was not. The daughter’s opinion differed. I could not hear her reasoning, but was able to intuit her logic a minute later upon the father’s reply.
“Glitter is not dirt,” he said.
Apparently they had been someplace where glittered had been applied before going or perhaps there.
I do think that will be my new motto, “Glitter is not dirt.”

I think I figured out why so many folks tend to dislike classical music. Think back to the last time you were on hold. What was the music? In my experience it is usually classical, followed by what we used to call Muzak, or on rare occasions easy listening. The combination of being on hold for far too long listening to unfamiliar music may generate this dislike .
Just for the record classical music is one of my favorite genres, but I still hate being on hold!

My next bumper sticker, “Remember which party brought you Trump”. Only problem is that many of the folks that voted for Trump are not in the educable class. I personally think they should all be made to go sit in a corner with a dunce cap on until they come to their senses.

I was ruminating about the heartlessness and hollowness that is Effingham Trump. I begin to wonder what would be inside him if you sliced him open. I have a horrific vision of maggots spewing from the incision. Alternately, I see it as opening up the mother of all black holes that sucks everything into it. Obviously, having too much is not enough for such a creature as Effingham Trump.

With Effingham Trump firing the FBI Director, James Comey, I had a brief vision of seeing him at the unemployment office applying for benefits. Would that not be surreal on both sides of the desk?

What is the difference between a wife and a dog?
When you fart in the bed a wife will growl at you, and a dog will just snuggle closer.
