“So many people came out to see me in Alabama last night. The Fire Marshall threatened to shut the rally down because we were so bigly over capacity. And I was told that there were over 300,000 outside, crying because they couldn’t get in to hear me. We could hear them all crying from inside. Sad.”

Can I get an AMEN!
I asked my grandpa, "After 65 years, you still call grandma Darling, Beautiful, and Honey. What's the secret?"
He said, "I forgot her name 5 years ago and I'm scared to ask her."

I came across the following today:
The police sometimes investigate by demanding search engine records showing everyone who typed a word or phrase they name. You could end up in a criminal file because of something you searched.
History repeating itself again;
Back in the 80’s everyone on USENET (ARPANET) was talking about the systems in use at the NSA, how extensive they were and how much storage and processing power they had available. The belief was they read every posting and email sent over the net and flagged certain keywords and who wrote them.
In a humorous attempt to overload said systems many people would have email signatures that were heavy with suspected keywords (bomb and such).
I often wonder about the truth of the NSA’s abilities and if true, if anyone ever got ‘tagged’ for their posts/emails.

Where has Ken not been?

- Ken has been in many places, but Ken as never been in Cahoots.
  Apparently you can't go there alone. You have to be in Cahoots with someone.
- He's also never been in Cognito. I hear no one recognizes you there.
- He has, however, been in Sane.
  They don't have an airport.
  You have to be driven there.
  He has made several trips there, thanks to his family, friends and those where he has worked.
- He would like to go to Conclusions,
  but you have to jump and he's am not too much on physical activity anymore.
- He has also been in Doubt.
  That is a sad place to go and he tries not to visit there too often.
- He has been in Flexible, but only when it was very important to stand firm.
- Sometimes he's in Capable, and he goes there more often as he's getting older.
- One of his favorite places to be is in Suspense,
  It really gets the adrenalin flowing and pumps up the old heart.
  At his age he needs all of the stimuli he can get.

We need more politicians like Pete, who not only see the problems, but also has ideas to fix them. I was accused of "ageism" when I said the old guard needs to step down. It's not about age, it's about the attitude of going along to get along, of being tone deaf to the times we're living in, etc.

Fourteen years ago, HBO's 'The Newsroom' laid out the truth about voter ID in this segment. It’s striking how little the arguments — or the tactics — have changed. Still a solution in search of a problem. History doesn’t repeat itself — it gets rerun.

Husband (a doctor) and his wife are having a fight at the breakfast 
table. 

Husband gets up in a rage and says, 'And you are no 
good in bed either,' and storms out of the house. 

After some time he realizes he was nasty and 
decides to make amends and rings her up. 

She comes to the phone after many rings, and the irritated husband 
says, 'What took you so long to answer the phone?' 
She says, 'I was in bed.' 

'In bed this early, doing what?' 

'Getting a second opinion!'
