A Little

 

Morning. We live in worrisome times.

I hope Midweek Mirth helps. A little, anyway.

The Final Battle???

 

Morning

Hmmm. How to start this extremely important post....

Remember the games Little Mikey Johnson played in delaying the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva (D-AZ)? Uh-huh. Along with many other kiss-asses, Little Mikey spoke at the midterm "convention" in TX last week. You know, the one where republican candidates had to pay $25-$100K to attend? Uh-huh. Yeah, well, that little speech lit the country's most conservative retired circuit court judge's hair on fire.

So much so, that Circuit Court Judge J. Michael Luttig (Ret) wrote an essay for The New Republic.

In that speech, Mikey said, and I quote: "...We cannot and will not allow them to take the majority. ..." [His emphasis]

In his essay, Luttig makes clear that the same bullshit Mikey played with Grijalva is their possible move on January 3, 2027, in the Chess game we've been playing for the survival of our Democratic Republic. 

I urge you to read

For those who might prefer it, the site provides a way to listen.

Then, Faithful Readers,

I urge you to share this article wherever you can.

It Began As

 

Morning

It began as a piece of Micro-Fiction in 2011. That morphed into a short play, which was produced at a local theatre in 2018. The play was adapted to film in 2020. The film made its way through the festival circuit during 2021 and won awards. It is now in the permanent collection of the 9-11 Memorial Museum in New York City.

The play was produced in New York City in 2023.

Blogger Takes a Holiday

Morning

Lately, there has been one issue after another with the Blogger platform. Today, "Upload" is not working, requiring a one-by-one Cut & Paste

It seems to be

Blogger's Day Off.

Have a good day

AI Can...

 

Morning

"I'm a doctor at a men's health clinic. We treat the whole man, not just ED. A patient told me he made the appointment because of reading your blog. So, I've perused your archives for the past month. I have to commend you on the way you respond to questions. We don't believe in handing out ED meds just because a guy wants them.  We believe in finding the root cause and treating it, so ED meds may not be needed. New patients get a complete physical. They get asked about their sex lives and their attitude regarding sex. Part of my spiel is "track your erections" --- and "masturbate regularly" regardless of relationship status." Erections really are a sign of health, and masturbation is one of the kindest things a man can do for himself. Keep up the good work." 

Wow. Thank you. The country needs more doctors like you. It seems ED is an epidemic and too many physicians just hand out boner pills without trying to find out why the patients are experiencing the issue. I commend you for being frank and open and honest with your patients.

After almost 15 years of this blog, I don't think there's a situation or problem that hasn't been covered --- some multiple times. Add the fact that --- as Faithful Reader Jean recently pointed out --- AI can answer any question one might have. Sometimes it's a matter of asking the right question. Or asking the right question in the right way, but the answers are out there.
