Yesterday, I visited Virgil and of course we played cribbage. We had hands ranging from zero (several of those) to 26 (only one of those. I’m thinking next time I go, since I always have to wait a few minutes, I might stack the deck to give him a perfect hand, just to see his face. The drive was easy both ways. A little rain just before getting home, but not enough to annoy me, let alone endanger me.<\/p>\n
Also yesterday (late) in her weekly “The Week Ahead”<\/a> post,. Joyce Vance asks her readers to explain to her, if possible, what makes Trump** voters tick.\u00a0 I am not a paid subscriber, so i can’t comment on that post, and I am not on Xitter so I can’t reach her that way.\u00a0 But I would love to recommend that she read the article by Dorothy Thompson in a 1941 issue of Harper’s (link is to archive dot is<\/a> so no paywall).\u00a0 There’s a lot in it, but I particularly want to point out that she points out (to bastardize a quote from Shalespeare) that some are born Nazi, some become Nazi, and some have Naziism thrust upon\u00a0 them.\u00a0 In other words, there’s not one single reason.\u00a0 But Thompson’s examples provide clues to determining who is which, which is the only thing I can think of that might help.<\/p>\n
