The long and winding road...

Well, let's see how this goes.  Facebook has decided to work like garbage and obviously we're not the customers.  I'm not sure yet if I'll come back here but let's see if this still works.  Here's the post I made on Facebook a little while ago.

  • And of course I wasn't even given the option to make a comment on the post I was sharing. Copying and pasting the post to a word document probably won't include the picture. This new system is lousy

Wow, I'm still signed in here after all these years? Go figure!




Not going to add anything of note.  I have a lot more books for sale.  The world has gotten even stranger than we could imagine.  I just posted on someone else's blog and followed the links to see if this thing still existed.  These days I'm on Facebook, although it remains to be seen how long before they purge non-believers.  C'est la vie.

From October 2010:
 
I don't know what Democrats are so worried about. They’re not all having tough elections. You don't hear about any sudden upset ready to happen in Nancy Pelosi's district, do you? No awkward stories of someone from her campaign looking foolish.

I don't know what Democrats are so worried about. Look at the long list of legislative achievements they’re able to brag about, and the way they triumphed over the filibuster under such heroic circumstances.

I don't know what Democrats are worried about.  By now most people have gone through two or three divorces, so they know what it's like to buy a house and lose it to someone else.

I don't know what Democrats are so worried about. They should have expected there would be tough fights for seats in long-time battleground states such as Massachusetts, Illinois and California.

Any other President? Woodrow Wilson had a stroke trying to get his agenda implemented. FDR looked horrible by the fourth term. Kennedy was shot! And they all had wars to run too. They had a world in flux, nation in crisis, economic problems, the usual crap. But a guy who hasn't made it to his first mid-terms suffers more than any other President, according to his oldest surviving predecessor?
Like I say, I don't know what the Democrats are worried about.
