I’m retired
Seventy- seven
Love reading and writing
Wrote my memoir “Every Goodbye Ain’t Gone” by John Perry in 2004
My memoir has been on Amazon eKindle (way before we were mad with Amazon) since 2008
Was going for a bestseller; happy if I sell any 😎

It’s been said history doesn’t repeat itself, but it often rhymes
Ninety twenty nine- 1939
Mexican Repatriation during the Great Depression
Hundreds of thousands of our Mexican were repatriated to Mexico to free up jobs for “ real Americans “
Some of those Mexicans repatriated were real Americans

Pretty Boy Void Pete Hegeseth has stepped in it big time
His “ warrior ethos” apparently doesn’t contain a lick of common sense
Blowing up boats, showing the grainy footage of it must seem like a rough and tumble thing to be doing but it’s backfiring
Hegeseth took his cosplaying General Patton just

Trump’s attitude about invading Venezuela is one of two: he’s punishing a naughty child or he’s the big bad bully not picking on someone his own size
Either attitude sucks in a game where death is the major player

In a huge fan of the 1958 song Summertime Blues by Eddie Cochran
I was 10 when it first came out

I’m listening to a 1968 remake of Summertime Blues by Blue Cheer
I’m 77
Love both versions of Summertime Blues bridging 67 years of my life

Well there goes peace in my household…
My daughter is a staunch University of Texas fan
I, having lived in Bryan- College Station and played tennis ( badly) on Texas A&M courts, am a staunch Aggies fan
For 11 years peace
No rivalry ; no arguing with my stubborn police officer daughter…

With Trump’s base we keep looking for the straw that breaks the camel’s back
Hell, we haven’t even found the camel yet ?

The Trump regime practices the philosophy of never wasting a tragedy if it can be used against their opponents
The shooting of two Nation Guard members in DC, the subsequent death of one of them, is the opportunity for Trump and his minions to politicize this tragedy
It also temporarily gets our

Emperor, King, Pharaoh are too old school
So Zohra Mamdani affirmed he thought Donald Trump is fascist… and Trump was cool with it
Mussolini didn’t balk at being called fascist, it’s what he was
Hitler embraced being a Nazi, it’s what he was
Putin knows he’s a dictator
So Trump accepts his

Trump’s promises aren’t worth two dead flies
His promises are just more of his lies
The more he promises the more you can bet
He’ll promise and promise but tell US “not yet”
Promises not kept, then you realize
Those promises weren’t worth two dead (f)lies

One day The Day of Absence will catch up to US
When crops go unpicked, lawns uncut, houses unbuilt, gut work undone, we will rue the day we allowed our brown brothers and sisters to be treated like cattle, rounded up and taken away
The wind will weep where the emptiness embraces The Day of Absence

I think we’re finally sorting out the facts about the two National Guard soldiers gunned down in DC
Initially they were reported as having been killed
Now there’s reporting they are in critical condition
One of the victims was male; the other female
Who’s willing to bet at some point someone in

Does Trump recognize the difference between people laughing With him and people laughing At him?

Witkoff, Trump, Vance, Bondi, Hegeseth, Miller and the whole rotten bunch live on a different moral planet than most of US
Absence of conscience and empathy are their air
Money is the gravity which grounds them
We should cease expecting decency from these people
They’re light years away from US

Under Kash Patel the FBI is steadily becoming the Federal Bureau of Intimidation led by a Fucking Bullying Idiot

People always say Trump doesn’t read
Two books I’m certain he’s read are Mein Kampf and 1984
The first, he wants to model the guy who wrote Mein Kampf
In 1984 Trump sees the blueprint for enacting Project 2025
Both books are grounded in authoritarianism, racism and state terrorism
