It’s Christmas Time

 - I don’t understand why people of non Christian beliefs get upset when someone wishes a Merry Christmas. The expression is one of the speaker’s joyful season they wish to spread, not a slur to so called non believers. Please stop thinking the universe evolves around you. I’ve had people genuinely wish me a Happy Hanukkah, Happy Ramadan, even the unadorned Seasons Greetings, and when they are delivered with hearts appreciate their wishing to spread the joy.

- New Yorker Magazine now saying that crossword puzzles are racist. Pretty sure that if someone made a crossword for the dis and ax crowd, answers would never be longer than 3 words, if they’d do the at all. Perhaps if the dis and ax crowds worked crosswords they’d grasp that the ‘limitations’ of crosswords isn’t racial or cultural, it’s a choice to remain sounding (but not necessarily) ignorant 

- It’s gotten to the point that just about everyone in the nation is unqualified to hold elected office based on things they have been accused of while 6-14 years old.  

- I’ve always abhorred yard work, but my disgust is now at an all time high…mostly but not entirely from this list of crap

  • Lawn so thick it wore out mower batteries before I could finish the front yard
  • Took 25 minutes to locate a short in the AC line for the weed eater
  • Weed eater ran for 10 minutes before the string line feeder gizmo seized up, flew off, and cracked in a half dozen places
  • Unbeknownst to me someone poured (another) 25-30 lbs of rocks in the alley setback, wreaking havoc on said lawnmower.  Now without a functioning weed eater the stuff will have to stay as is for the time being.
  • The best quality grass is the stuff growing in the cracks of our >60 yr old brick and concrete patio
  • Having to do yard work 6 days from Christmas is just friggin stupid
- There's a couple of reports the Epstein client list will finally be released.  I hope so, but I seriously doubt anything will come of it.  Any bets on whether or not the Clintonistas will be on the list?

- Fun times…seems the Border Patrol has intercepted no less than ten improvised explosives (IED) at the Mexican border.  Ask any Middle East war vet how devastating these can be, and yet we keep allowing people who use them into the country

- Deb and I wish each of y’all a very Merry Christmas. See ya next week
