Yesterday, Trinette came by and of course we talked about the election. I asked her whether her sons had voted, and she said Zach did, but she couldn’t get Josh interested. I asked her to tell Zach that I am proud of him for voting. (Zach is the one who takes good care of my front yard. Of course I pay hin – but there are other friends of Trinette whom he won’t work for, regardless of pay, because they are micro managers. I guess I can be proud of that too.)
I am still a bit giddy from last week’s elections – much like Robert Reich. And I 100% am with him on what comes next. So this is the ony short take today I am actually serious about. Two of the following three short takes have serious content, but my response is not serious, and the last one doesn’t even pretend to be serious. I am, however, serious about Robert Reich’s thoughts. Not that they are anything you aren’t already aware of. But, as G.K. Chesterton one said (quoted from memory so likely not word perfect): The human race requires ti be reminded fat more often than it needs to be instructed.
I really only posted this so I could say “That’s Admiral Eileen Laubacher to you scurvy Republicans.”
So I just noticed this. If you look at the “l” in “Thiel”, and you take a hyphen ans add it about halfway up…and the upper half of a small citcle, and put it at the top, out side up… and then look at the whole name again … what do you see?
