And So It Goes
I was fixing to tell you that I had been indisposed this morning because I have decided that when when all the behind-closed-doors books come out about the Trump presidency, I’m going to have to rent a beach house for a month with a hammock underneath on the breezeway and read my butt silly.
I was coming here to tell you not to miss Axios today because when I think of the fun we all missed by not being able to watch … oh dear, it just doesn’t seem fair.
And then I discover that El Jefe beat me to it.
Honey, it is frightful and delightful at the same time. Get a cup of coffee and read it.
And if you’ve already read it, check out how a 72 year old retired nurse in Michigan almost got herself virtually shot by a Proud Boy supporter.
Be watching for the Juanita Jean Beach House Rental Fund in the coming month. Or if you’re armpit deep in snow, be my rental agent and look for a (2 bedroom 2 bath or more) beach house on a beach or close enough to hear the surf, anywhere from Bolivar peninsula to Corpus Christi. Bolivar for the seclusion, Galveston and Rockport for the food, and Corpus Christi for the rowdy friends. Anywhere will do because my rowdy friends have cars.
Don’t forget to read the Axios.
Would say we’re relieved that madman Donnie is out of office. But he jerks on one’s peace of mind with his bleats about returning in 2024. 4 years, he could be buried by then. But there are the ambitions of Dimwit Jr., Princess Sparkletwat, and the QOP in Congress, too.
So is Moscow Mitch burying his head in the sand waiting for the winds to subside? Or, is he doing exactly what Mort Blackwell wants him to do which is nothing?
1Maybe you can get a good rate from the Austin florist, above.
2The nurse was not in any immediate danger since it was a virtual meeting. But we call them gun nuts for a reason
3So, I get indicted as CEO of XYZ Co for bribery, price-fixing. The Board of Dir fires me. So, that means I can’t be tried because I don’t work there no more. Howz that gonna fly down at the courthouse.
4This ain’t Fight Club, so it’s fair that I tell you that the best of the Texas Gulf Coast IMHO is all points south of Corpus to the (rarely flowing) mouth of the Rio Grande. The further south the better until you get to Mexico, then you need a passport and probably a negative Covid test. Bring your “Vanlife” wheels and library. Also bring all the food and drink you need, it may be a far piece ( yet peaceful) to get provisions.
5My diversion today was reading the submissions from the Trump-ist lawyers and then the House managers.
And then reading the wide variety of ridicule of the Trump-ist submissions.
It bodes well for the experience of getting some diverse snacks and perhaps an adult beverage or two to accompany viewing at the start of the trial next week, with “opening statements” from each side.
6Holy moly. These people are lunatics.
I feel like I need a holiday, too.
7My suggestion for a location for that beachside cabana? Zipolite in Oxaca. Have fun!
