GOP Response to Facebook
Republicans surprisingly offered an official response to this Facebook meme that has been going around regarding recent USA mass shootings asking people “See a pattern?”

I Overestimated My Squash Ability
No, not playing squash. Eating it. I thought I was being so healthy, buying a spaghetti squash that I planned to prepare for lunch. And so I did. A little olive oil, some garlic salt, some pepper, and it baked into a tasty treat. The problem is, the squash I ate looked like this …
Sign of the Times
I saw on Twitter that someone added this creative and really well-done sign to the fence at the front of Paul Manafort’s house …
Kinda’ clever and funny, but based on the money laundering charges filed against him by Robert Mueller’s team, I would have been satisfied with this sign …

Meat The Nominee
BREAKING NEWS …
Donald Trump’s choice to be the Department of Agriculture’s chief scientist, Sam Clovis (not a scientist) has withdrawn himself from consideration for the position in light of his recent testimony to Robert Mueller’s investigative team and grand jury regarding his time as a member of the Trump campaign.
However, in an unprecedented break with Clovis, deciding to remain in consideration for the position at the Department of Agriculture are the jowls and throat wattle of Clovis. A spokesperson for Clovis’s jowls and throat wattle released a statement saying, “A meaty position like this at the USDA requires a similarly meaty candidate, and the jowls and throat wattle of Sam Clovis certainly meat <wink> that criteria.”
This would indeed be a rare occurrence if jowls and a throat wattle are considered for such a choice, meaty position, and if confirmed, it would be a job well done. Gawd, I’m hungry for a steak now.
Trick or Trick
Under His Spell
BREAKING NEWS
We have learned exclusively that Donald Trump will not tweet any defense of his former adviser, George Papadopoulos, who has plead guilty to lying to the FBI, primarily because he can’t spell Papadopoulos.

SAD vs Sad!
I took a walk yesterday for exercise. It was cold, dreary, overcast and at times, snowing hard. For someone with SAD, it was a very difficult walk. I’m not talking about being sad. I’m talking about Seasonal Affective Disorder, when the lack of sunlight in fall & winter causes my body to crash and my lightbox becomes my best friend, somewhat like this …

Mystery Spoons
I am puzzled. That should come as no surprise to anyone who has read my posts. I found a hidden cache of spoons behind the plastic tray that is supposed to hold our silverware neatly in the drawer … except for that messy tangle of spoons behind the tray.
As I sorted out the new-found spoons, a mystery unfolded in front of my unbelieving eyes.
RIP Fats Domino
I saw the news that Fats Domino just passed away at age 89. Although he was a fine musician, I’m not a huge fan and don’t have a lot emotionally invested in his passing, but I am encouraged. There’s a guy nicknamed “Fats” that made it to 89 years old. There’s hope for a long life for me! Fat guys rule!
Another Item Off My Bucket List
I have a Bucket List of things I would like to do before I check out of life as I live it today and enter what I expect to be a phase of my life with an emphasis on people wiping drool from my chin. One of the items on my Bucket List was to have one of my songs performed by professional musicians. That magic happened last night …
Fake News Exposed
There was a time, way back in 2016, when satire was possible. Satire is fake news, but we all know it is fake news being played for laughs or ironic effect. We chuckle. We guffaw. At times, we just smile wryly while suppressing a chortle inside. I sensed a problem once Trump grabbed hold of this nation’s neck with as much as his tiny little hands could hold and nobody could tell my satirical fake news from reality anymore. And now this news story I saw today …
