I bring my pond fish in every winter to spend a few months in comfort in a tub under my workbench rather than let them languish in a state of hibernation in the pond. This is similar to how I handle winter, except for the part about being under my workbench. I choose to spend winter huddled under blankets on the couch.
Just as the Cruz campaign grabbed a little momentum yesterday when Ted Cruz overwhelming won the Utah Republican caucus, it suffered a momentum-halting, huge setback today.
It seems completely normal to hear that Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trump is threatening Ted Cruz, but now the wives are involved, the gloves are off and food may be spilled.
After an anti-Trump PAC tweeted out revealing pictures of Melania Trump from a GQ photoshoot, husband Donald came to her aid and threatened via twitter to “spill the beans” on Heidi Cruz.

In honor of Marco Rubio’s crashing and burning presidential campaign, I suggest the kid’s swimming pool game of tag formerly known as Marco Polo now be called Marco Rubio. That’s about the only thing that will ever be named after him as it is becoming clear that there will never be a Marco Rubio Presidential Library. Consider this …
Spring has burst upon the scene in Chicago just as my pants are ready to burst at the seams. And those are my stretchy sweats! Here’s how I can tell I’m out of shape …

The comparisons of Donald Trump to Adolph Hitler are so unfair to Mr. Trump.
I understand that there is a breakthrough in technology coming for the vision impaired.
The 2016 International Women’s Day theme is Pledge For Parity.
I can tell I’m getting older just by my vocabulary.
