Bath house attendant.

Sometimes I have to refill the birdbath several times a day.  And not just during the Summer.

I do believe I shall take a plunge!

Shortly afterwards and after a quick top off from the watering can, The Robin Boys Club.

That’s why these guys go south for the winter, no baths for months!

Glitch

Several ‘draft’ posts that I hadn’t previously finished or sent got posted tonight from the draft folder. Most were several months old.

Sorry for the confusion, don’t know what happened.

Birthday week.

OK, I’ll try not to whine.

In my state they closed all the restaurants, except for take-out, two days before my girlfriends birthday, three days before mine.

After a embarrassingly low game last week at my bowling league, I practiced daily to get my average up from 64 to 86, with a high game of 97 (at great expense); league games are now cancelled indefinitely. (97 is a good score in candlepin)

We cancelled a flight booked on JetBlue; because we purchased ‘trip insurance’ we get ten percent back in cash, sixty percent in “Travel Bank” credit and lose the rest. If we hadn’t bought trip insurance, under the state of emergency, we would have gotten 100% back.

And I just renewed my gym membership, which is now closed.

I turn 70 on Thursday. As a friend from high school emailed me; “You were 20 in the Seventies; and 70 in the Twenties”,  Happy Birthday.

“Happy Birthday”… yetch!

Trump weekend in Massachusetts

A rally to support Trump in Natick turns violent. Police arrest a man after being called to the Town Common for a report a person was pepper-sprayed.

Not peaceful.  Mainly the assaults were committed against the Trump supporters; smashed smart phones, signs ripped and broken, threats and even a vehicle used in a threatening way.  Many of the anti-Trump protesters were high school age.  This is the price for ignoring what the Left has been doing to American education for decades.

In Weymouth, the Trump Rally went by without incident (as far as I can find).

Probably because it was smaller and is mostly white and middle class.   No Biden/Harris signs in town, and few BLM either.  Not many Trump signs for that matter, but probably because they get vandalized or stolen.  I’ve lost two.

Joke

In Texas there is a town called New Braunfels, where there is a large German-speaking population.

One day, a local rancher driving down a country road noticed a man using his hand to drink water from the rancher’s stock pond.

The rancher rolled down the window and shouted: “Sehr angenehm! Trink das Wasser nicht. Die kuehe haben darein geschissen.”

This means: “Glad to meet you! Don’t drink the water. The cows have sh*t in it.”

The man shouted back: “I’m from New York and just down here campaigning for Joe Biden. I can’t understand you. Please speak in English.”

The rancher replied: “Use both hands.”

Comment of the day.

Today I am heartened by:

1) The apparent nomination of ACB
2) The steady approval numbers of the President
3) The tightening of the race in key states (such as Michigan and New Hampshire), and states previously not considered key (such as Virginia)
4) The President’s incredible work ethic and drive, especially in contrast to Joe Biden who, by all accounts, is being forced to stay up every night from 9PM until 9AM, and then sleep during the day, to condition his body for the debate next week.

My greatest fear about November is the Democrat party’s willingness to cheat.
My greatest consolation is this President’s mad love affair with winning and absolute hatred with losing, especially by cheating. He is no pushover. He is no congenial loser. He is no McCain, no Romney.

He will fight and he will win.

Even I’m surprised, but not shocked.

Hmm, what’s this chip hidden inside my mask from China!

Guest: Open Letter to Joe Biden & Kamala Harris.

Open letter to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris:

You see Trump’s arrogance, I see Trump’s confidence.
You see Trump’s nationalism, I see Trump’s patriotism.
You hear Trump’s unsophisticated words, I hear Trump’s honesty.
You see Trump’s racism, I see Trump’s words being misconstrued and twisted by the media daily to fit their narrative.
You see Trump as a Republican, I see Trump as a Patriot.
You see Trump as a dictator, I see Trump as a leader.
You see Trump as an Authoritarian, I see Trump as the only one willing to fight for our freedoms.
You see Trump as childish, I see Trump as a fighter, unwilling to cave in to the lies.
You see Trump as an unpolished politician, I see Trump as a breath of fresh air.
You see Trump as homophobic, I see Trump as the first President who has ever entered office supporting gay marriage.
You think Trump hates immigrants, I know Trump is married to an immigrant.
You see Trump putting an end to immigration in America, I see Trump welcoming immigrants to America LEGALLY.
You see Trump’s cages at the border, I see Obama’s cages at the border.
You see Trump with a struggling economy, I see Trump with an amazing economy until the Democrats shut it down.
You see the violence in the streets and call it “Trump’s America”, I see the violence in the streets of Democratic run cities who are refusing Trump’s help and call it “Liberal America.”
You want someone more Presidential, I’m happy we have someone who finally doesn’t just talk the talk but actually walks the walk.

You and I? We see things very differently.
