yeah I know you did not ask!
My wife who has been on a bit of a diet here lately came into the living room strutting the other night.
“I’m so proud,” she said.
“Oh,” said I.
“Yes,” she went on, “For the first time in my life I weigh what is on my driver’s license.”
“Well,” I congratulated her, ” The state of Missouri will be so proud!”
Now That Is Different
The picture attached is a picture of the back window of my pickup truck. I’ve had it on 
there since Inauguration Day. Initially I was being flipped off regularly. I have not been done so for several months now.
I am leaving work from downtown St. Louis, and I realize I need gas. I swing off I-64 to a QT close to downtown. This is a particularly busy QT. I get out of my truck, swipe my credit card and start gassing up. I notice a car pull into the pump behind me and someone get out. I am not paying that much attention to them.
I’m watching the numbers spin dollars out of my checking account when I hear, “Now that is different.”
I look up and at the back of my pickup is a middle aged black man with graying hair. I look at him quizzically. He points to my bumper stickers and says, “Now that is different, a black man who supports Trump, and a white man who does not.”
I look at him, and agree that yes that is very different, and we give each other a fist bump.
I want to ask him why, but did not really want to get into a political discussion at the gas pumps in downtown St. Louis. Plus I’m not sure any answer would have made sense to me. It is very perplexing as, IMHO, Trump is a huge racist.

What strange times we live in. Here I am rooting for the porn star Stormy Daniels @StormyDaniels over the so called President of the United States Gospodin Trump @realDonaldTrump I so hopes she takes him down. I so hope she demonstrates beyond any doubt what the whole world already knows. That he is awful human being who should be in prison. #WorstPresidentEver

The flag is dipped to show respect. At sea it is dipped by lowering to half-mast and then raising. I have come to see flags at half-mast after gun massacres as a dip to the NRA. I am tried of seeing flags at half-mast. NRA is not owed respect.

Quote for the Day – Fred Rogers
“Love isn’t a state of perfect caring. It is an active noun like struggle. To love someone is to strive to accept that person exactly the way he or she is, right here and now.” ~~ Fred Rogers

My Daily Prayer
Dear God: I know that our nation has committed many egregious sins in the past. Surely, we have not done anything so vile as to deserve the delusional Gospodin Trump. Please save us from this national nightmare, the #WorstPresidentEver
