In high school, we staged the Neil Simon play 'Barefoot in the Park'. As always, I was cast as the old guy (let's unpack that later, lol) - in this case, the 58-year-old Victor Velasco, "worldly bon vivant and genial Lothario". Today is my 58th birthday. Yes, I will take questions.

Had anyone else noticed that after years of it being a rarity, people are suddenly riding around in cars with their feet up on the dashboard again? I haven't seen such a multitude of dashboard feet since the 1970s!

Even two hundred years ago this wasn't true. Mount Vernon and Monticello at least do not demonstrate simple living, and the sheer number of presidents who owned people as cattle precludes believing they had any integrity. That said, has it ever been less true than now?
"Introduction by Hon. James Rankin Young,  member of Congress and Late Clerk of the United States Senate. Probably there is no one fact in the history of the Republic,  of which Americans are prouder than that all their Presidents were exceptionally good men - men who filled the great office with credit to themselves and honor to the nation. They were especially noted for their earnest love of country, their rigid integrity and the simplicity of their lives". From Memorial Life of William McKinley, or martyred President" 1902

I've been promoting a similar idea (caterpillar and butterfly are twins, one goes dormant until the other one goes dormant) for years. Butterflies are creepy as hell.
npr.org
Are Butterflies Two Different Animals in One? The Death And Resurrection Theory
Moths and butterflies radically change shape as they grow, from little wormy caterpillar critters to airborne beauties. Why are they born this way? Could they actually be separate organisms?

To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.

WHY ARE WE IN IRAN?
How many times can we “obliterate “ Iran’s nuclear capabilities?

How many years will Iran be “weeks away” from attacking the U.S.?

How many wars can Netanyahu get us into?

How many centuries will countries continue fighting religious wars?

How many trillions must be spent to feed the military industrial complex?

How many innocent men, women and children must be killed and displaced from their homes?

END THIS WAR NOW
