Old enough to know better but still hopeful and optimistic.

I hope some of the resources on the Democratic Party side are going toward drafting a 2029 Plan that will undo EVERYTHING that man in the White House has done.

With that new Trump coin, is anyone setting up a contest to see who can deface it in the most creative way? I am thinking lasers and Dremmel tools will be at work.

I put librarians up with nurses as the most valuable yet under appreciated people in our society.

To the Republicans I still consider "decent" people: If you persist in putting (R) by your name, you are showing the world who you are and who you support. Labels is how the Allies won the war and the Nazis lost.

At dinner last week, I mentioned that Gene Hackman was in "Young Frankenstein." My good friend said, "No, he wasn't." When I insisted he was, he bet me $1,000 I was wrong. "Payable tomorrow!" he said as we shook hands. Nope, no $1,000 yet...

I attended a celebration of life of a woman who died 6 months ago. The love expressed by those who spoke in remembrance was moving. The lesson? Live to be well-remembered by those you share life with.

If asked to create a way to elect the President today, anyone who suggested the Electoral College system would be labeled a crackpot. The EC serves the political parties. We KNOW how to run direct elections--that's how we do Governors.

Taxes are rarely popular, but they come about through our political system. Paying $2 more per gallon of gas or diesel, known as the TRUMP TAX, came about through an egotistical know-nothing. Not anything that could be called a system.

Needlessly calling elections into question to undermine the normal workings of our well-established democratic republic is treasonous. It should be punished accordingly.

Last week I commented on Trump's comment "Glory to God" noting that it was nearly "Allahu Akbar." Now, on Easter, he says "Praise be to Allah." All signs point to loony.

Donald Trump punctuated a recent Tweet with "Glory to GOD". In Arabic he would be saying "Allahu Akbar!" What's next? "Death to America?"

The length of astronaut training probably means that Victor Glover was selected by someone other than Trump. Trump would not want an African American astronaut. Nice looking family.

It must drive the Speaker crazy that in addition to being so much taller, Leader Thune seems to be the saner of the pair.

Every reference Trump made in addressing the nation about the war in Iran was punctuated by "the likes of which no one has ever seen." Why does Trump only hang with ignorant people who don't understand the phenomena of the world? He exaggerated the danger of an obliterated Iranian nuclear program.

Too late. You are branded by the complicity you exhibited when the rest of us told you what you are only now admitting. You deserve to be cast into the outer darkness. Don't ask for Grace when you failed to show it.

My mother, who lived to be 100, would agree with you. She would take them out of a mixed bag of jelly beans if she couldn't get a whole bag of black ones.

Please refer to Robert Polito's "After the Flood" for an analysis and discussion of Dylan's second 30 years as a songwriter and performer. Every Dylan fan will dig this book.

What's more disturbing? That Trump knows what he's doing or that he doesn't?

Or Secretary of State. I doubt she seriously values the fair, free and secure elections we run in Montana.

For my money, "Lonesome Dove" was a peak. Also, "Assassination Tango" if only to watch him dance.

Trump uses mail in voting. It's not that he's against it--it's just when it elects people he doesn't like.

Try watching "My Blue Heaven" starring Steve Martin, Rick Morranis and Joan Cussack. It's a bit lightweight, zany, but it is a fun watch.

Robert Polito's new book "After the Flood." A scholarly look at Bob Dylan's second 30 years in creating art. His music, his paintings, etc. All fair game. Polito was first into the Dylan Archives at the Bob Dylan Center. Being a Dylan wonk helps with loving this one.

Montana Secretary of State, Christi Jacobson, apparently gave Montana voter registration data to the feds. President Trump stopped walking and her nose got caught in his posterior.

I put librarians right up there with nurses as the people whose benefit to society I ad mire greatly. Way more than ICE agents.

In anticipation of the mid-terms it is now time to begin hyphenating the names of every Republican candidate who fails to disavow Trump with Trump' name. I'll begin: Senator Daines-Trump and Congressman Zinke-Trump of Montana.

I'm against shooting people--it's wrong. ICE shooting a man who was down is sickening. What everyone wonders is it that hard to imagine ICE agents in the cross-hairs of a deer rifle held by a fed up Minnesotan? The whole game will change with the first ICE agent gets shot from 250 yards.

I am with those who name Blood On The Tracks as Dylan's finest album. "You're a Big Girl Now" is distilled heartbreak. "Lily Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts" is amazingly cinematic. It should be a movie. Seriously.

Renee Good was a mother. She was a poet. The last view of her we had, she was smiling and non-threatening. Then an ICE agent in a mask shot her in the face. The administration covered it up and my Republican Congress-critters have said nothing in objection. They are all terrible people.

Tomorrow I will, as will all my 8 siblings, make herring salad, a family tradition that is about 60 years old for us. It's made with potatoes, beets, onion, pickle, apple and hard boiled eggs. In spite of being the color of Pepto Bismol, it's delicious, and brings prosperity in the new year!

Remember I told you about my 100 year Mom? When her tenth child entered elementary school, she went back to college and played tennis. She won a County tennis tournament in singles, doubles and mixed doubles. She was well read and a wonderful conversationalist. I want to be her when I grow up.

I get you. My Mom was a mother of ten. Imagine the chaos of getting ten kids and respectable for church! Imagine putting on a traditional Christmas feast! Imagine having company for Christmas dinner on top of that! My Mom lived to be 100 because having ten kids and Christmas made her tough.
