Get Real:
I
try to wake up slowly, easing the infliction of inane tension
on my body. For one thing I never turn on the manic morning TV. Too much of an assault
on my contentment. Soft non-intrusive music is the answer.
Speaking
of abrupt mental intrusions, what’s with this seething anger from
Hawaii Senator Hirono. I think she needs help. I always thought the Senate was
the deliberative, intelligent body of congress.
Last
night I had the delightful experience of going to a
restaurant with no noise, like we could hear each other talk. No, that’s not a
typo, it actually happened. It was a brand-new restaurant in an old refurbished
factory, and the designers found a way to dampen the echoing noise. I once asked
an owner of a brand-new restaurant built from scratch about why he used very
material known to man that didn’t absorb sound, in fact intensified the
resonation. He said that younger diners like to feel part of the buzz. I think
he just had a thing against people with hearing aids.
So,
maybe, restaurateurs are waking to the fact that shouting at each other for an hour
and a half is not good for digestion. Nor for mental stability. But good for
selling drinks to dampen the ruckus.
The
Question:
What great Confederate General died after being accidentally
shot by his own men. Bonus: Who were
Albert Von Tilzer and Jack Norworth?
The
Headlines:
--Markets Mixed; Dow Down, Nasdaq Up; Apple Soared
After Yesterday’s Late News.
--After Yesterday’s Comedy Show, Barr Decides Not To
Testify Before An Even More Bitter House.
--Colorado Senator Michael Bennet Latest To Squeeze
Into Dem Field Of Candidates.
--Dems Say trump Agreed To 2 Trillion Infrastructure
Deal; Now Top Dems And Prez Will meet Over Drug Costs.
Whoops!
After yesterday’s early intros into Derby hopefuls, this morning it was announced
that favorite Omaha Beach was scratched due to a cough. Scratchy throat? But
they now say that the field is w-i-d-e open. But, I expect that by derby time
news reports will establish another favorite, sentimental or real.
Since
William Barr had nothing to do with what Mueller
reported, you have to figure that the Dems are trying to discredit him because he
is leading the way on several investigations of Democrat shenanigans during the
election.
Have
you ever noticed during these congressional hearings that after
the inquisitor stops rambling, the person in the hot seat sits their dumbfounded
in awkward silence? That moves the inquisitor to add, “That’s my question?”
What a farce.
There
must be a lot of money to be made by running for President.
Why else would so many people who nobody ever heard of with little chance of even
showing up on a poll vie for this elusive prize.
One
of the real problems of digital newspapers is that the demise
of printed papers has robbed me of my favorite small paint job drop cloths.
And,
will pirate’s hats be lost forever.
Here’s
how ludicrous these hearings about condemnation of
Barr over the Mueller report are. In a letter form the DoJ yesterday, it was revealed
that the key Dems refused to look at, or acknowledge the receipt of the Mueller
report with less than 1.5% redactions totally, 0.01% Part Two, voluntarily delivered
by Barr and his people. How would they sustain their feigned anger if they were
to say think you AG Barr for the full report.? F---ing sad.
I
don’t know about you, but the only time I have ever witnessed
a person eating Chinese food out of a carton is in movies or on TV. Chinese
food has always been better when shared. I think most normal humans who live in
the real world would take portions to a plate. Directors must think it is cute.
I’m
going to open an English Restaurant that touts, no Mexican,
no Asian infusions. Just plain old humdrum meals that taste good.
The
Answer:
Even as an avowed northerner, I always had soft spot
in my boyish heart for General Thomas Jonathon “Stonewall” Jackson, born in Clarksburg
West Virginia (Note: West Virginia In1824 didn’t have the “West” yet. (And I
don’t mean Jerry.) It was just Virginia.) Bonus:
Norworth and Von Tilzer wrote the words (Norworth) and Music (Von Tilzer) for, “Take
me out to the Ballgame”. Are you humming yet?
Jaundiced
minds at Work, Department:
Basically, yesterday, the Dems used their feigned
agitation against Barr as a release of their intense dislike of Trump. I loved watching
Barr joust with the ridiculous. Barr should resign? What a joke.
Always
enjoy this song. Great concert rendition:
