… but it bends towards justice.

Now don’t tell me we’re not a bunch of super smart people in Texas.  I got proof we know all kinds of health hacks.

No, seriously. Some of our citizens have figured out that if bleach will clean our drainboards, it’ll also clean our airways and kill weeds in our flowerbeds.

Besides, the good people at QAnon, who are the same good folks who brought you the John Birch Society, say those damn doctors have a cure but they ain’t telling you because they make money off sick people.

Thanks to Kary for the heads up.

Okay, I live about 35 miles southwest of Houston proper.  It takes me about an hour to drive to downtown Houston.  The hurricane is going on the east side of Houston.  That means I live on the “clean” side of this hurricane.  Hurricanes have two sides – the clean side and the dirty side. You want to be on the clean side.

I feel really bad for the people on the Texas/Louisiana border.  They are going to get punched. However, a direct hit on Houston would be catastrophic. You’re looking at 5 million people, a ship channel, Galveston Island, and a city that simply cannot evacuate because there’s only one direction you can get away – northwest.

Houston will get some high wind and way too much rain but it more than likely won’t be catastrophic.

We had what Bubba calls a two-day-hurricane. One day to put all the lawn furniture and plants in the shed and another day to put it all back.  Those are days you gripe but secretly you’re relieved.

I’ve spent the day getting my potted plants back outside in case we get some good rain.

Jack Brewer, a Texan and former NFL player, is scheduled to speak at the Republican National Convention tonight.  He’s just crazy about Trump.

On August 6th, the Securities and Exchange Commission filed charges against Brewer for insider trading.  Brewer is up to his neck with insider deals with Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.

Brewer has proudly become a major Trump supporter, calling him “the first black president.” Brewer supported Barack Obama both times Obama ran. And Brewer didn’t stop there.

“I’ve been a Democrat all my life,” Brewer told Trump. “And you changed me. You changed me. You touched me. And you made my work go to another level. You inspire me.”

Look, I’m not saying that Brewer is angling for a pardon or anything, but … oh hell yeah.

So when he speaks tonight, just remember that you can’t trust this guy either.

This will come as a shock but there appears to be some breaches in etiquette and protocol at the White House.

I know how you feel.  These classy people wouldn’t do anything like that, right?

Boy howdy, they’ve been awful.

… the former chief of protocol, Sean Lawler, committed what could be considered ‘workplace violence’… Officials described an environment of yelling, cursing, ‘overconsuming alcohol,’ and intimidating and abusive behavior.”

I’m shocked, shocked, I tell you.

You know, I have never been a fan of Claire McCaskill … until last night.

It was a thing of beauty.

There were many perfectly awful speeches tonight but maybe this wins.
