I’ll begin with the “Holiday” because it’ll be mine for a while. <\/p>\n

I have Carpal Tunnel Syndrome <\/strong><\/em>that the neurologist, who did the EMG, said is rated as “Severe” by the test.  So I saw the hand surgeon today and will be having surgery in the next 1-3 weeks.<\/p>\n

Both the surgeon and neurologist said it’d be best to minimize my keyboard excursions – so I’m going to try to be a good patient and comply.<\/p>\n

That explains the very brief “Friday Fun”<\/em><\/strong> post which you’ll have to do most of the leg<\/s> finger-work to read about and my probably absense.<\/p>\n

But we can all say a hearty “ThankYou!”<\/em><\/strong> to Johari Osayi Idusuyi<\/strong> for providing some comic relief to a master comic himself, Donald Trump<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Idusuyi has made an effort to learn about the candidates, so when Trump came to down …<\/p>\n

“I’m genuinely not interested in him as a person, but if you have the chance to see a presidential candidate, why not?” Idusuyi said.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

AND she got a primo seat …<\/p>\n

\n

“I think we were chosen for obvious reasons.  We are minorities and there weren’t a lot of minorities there. He also instructed us to sit in the middle, so we kind of already knew what this was.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Idusuyi insisted she went into the rally with an open mind, but she took out her book and began reading after Trump demanded the removal of some protesters, and she said supporters cheered after a supporter removed a woman’s Obama hat and tossed it into the crowd.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

So rather than waste anymore of the time, she took out an award-winning book, “Citizen: An American Lyric”<\/em>, and began reading …<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

And boy, that did NOT go over well with some bigots<\/s> hate-mongers<\/s> knuckle-draggers<\/s> Trump supporters!<\/p>\n
