Streets were made for dancin':
A new poll says that Repubs want a President who can fight against wokism. But that should not imply Repubs want outrageousness and incivility, but only that we want a strong person with common sense and an ability to express it sensibly.
In my life, these are “IcyHot” days. As the spring and thoughts of summer evoke new challenges and adventures beyond the capacity of an aging body, I tend to become addicted to a soothing salve. Fortunately, it is one of my less destructive addictions.

Trust and honesty are two words which when abused can bring down a Friendship, a relationship or an entire a society. If we are going to fight for anything it should be for the preservation of those two words. I hope somebody tells that to AI Chatbot.
Scientists are saying that eating frozen meals can cause anxiety, depression and cognitive decline. Well, sure it does. I'm depressed every time I go to buy a frozen meal and the shelf is empty.
Did those scientists ever sit down to think that perhaps the reason why people who eat frozen meals are depressed is because they are usually living alone in a dark room with a lone bare light bulb for their sunshine.
By the way, it is getting to the point where the words “Scientists Say...” is losing the trust of Americans mainly because it is used so much by politicians.
From the Beatles, Department:
“He's a real nowhere man
Sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Doesn't have a point of view
Knows not where he's going to...”
Hmmm. Prophetic.
Porpoises in Florida were observed to "age" at a much greater rate than porpoises in Carolina. Biologists noticed that gulls seemed to be associated with the porpoises in Carolina, so they captured a few to send to Florida. These scientists were arrested for transporting gulls across a border for immortal porpoises.
All of these jobs supposedly created by the admin are just people coming back to work after covid. And much too late at that, as they were overpaid for doing nothing.
Spell-Check no knows that my common typo "eth” is a word but not that trump a can also be capitalized as in the last name of a President.
I need a good muse to inspire me back into writing a novel.
Bud Light and Anheiser Busch certainly have learned about wokism woes since there tryst with Transgender influencer Mulvaney. Their stock as lost $5 Billion in value due to protests and boycotts. Companies tying themselves to social/cultural issues is a two-way sword. Just maintain and sell the quality of products. Watch for a big Bud Light ad explosion this summer. And you can bet the Clydesdales won't be wearing bras.
It is also not a good time to be a shareholder in a regional bank, especially one on the west coast. Talk about earthquakes.
As editor of this mess, I occasionally get to talk about my happy things. And today I am happy that the Patriots’ fans voted to put Tennessee Titan Coach Mike Vrabel in the Pats Hall of Fame, To me he was the guy who symbolized the resurgence of the Pats in the early 2000. He was one of those Hearts of the organization. Also going in with him is special lifetime achievement award Coach Dante Scarnecchia. He was the O line coach for close to 40 years and Tom Brady owes that coach more than he knows. So, applause, applause. Well done.
Did I say, “resurgence...” Sorry, the Pats never had a surgence ot re.
Succession is coming down to the final episode and it will be interesting to see what happens to all the loser children.
The Answer:
Obviously, there is the United Kingdom. And Australia and Canada are huge entities but not as enthralled about being part of the monarchy especially with the passing of Queen Elizabeth who they liked. While there is unrest in both of these two countries, it is years away before the break. The rest are St Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, The Bahamas, Bermuda, Antigua and Barbuda, Belize, Grenada, Jamaica, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Tuvalo, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.
Life just seemed better when we were Dancin’ in the Streets! (I know I have done this one before, but I like it):
