I had the great pleasure of meeting him - 5 years to the day - before he died. (I know bc I’d decided that - for my birthday - I wanted to make the 5 hour drive with my sister to Plains; to hear him teach Sunday school, which he regularly did before he went into Hospice.)

It was a memorable day !

Wish I could take “NZT” (and tap my WHOLE mind, instead of the 10% they say we use …)

I ran from house to house putting Doorhangers on residences — for Eugene McCarthy.

(Talk about a futile effort !! 😂)

But, IF ONLY Sirhan Sirhan hadn’t robbed us all of one of the best candidates this country’s ever produced … my efforts would not have been in vain.

Definitely NOT just a “Christmas Song,”. Lol

I confess that for quite some time I didn’t even know it WAS a cover, (which put Jimi’s version at a slight disadvantage), but — for me — Sting’s soaring vocals easily win out on ”Little Wing.”

I love Bruce, but I REALLY don’t like “Hungry Heart”.

That first couplet just doesn’t sit right with me — at all.

I guess Joni Ernst uses the same chiro. 😏

Ahhhh, what might have been …

She was SO MUCH more qualified.

Hahahaha

Reminds me of this meme …

What still sticks in my craw are the NINETY-SIX MILLION who didn’t bother to exercise their franchise AT ALL !!

I hope, at least, that a large portion will see what we got as a result of so many staying home — and will never do it again.

Doesn’t help us now, though …

Sporting a shirt with a guy I’d’ve like to’ve been at least NOMinated in ‘16.

I’ve never forgiven the DNC for putting their thumb on the scale, so to speak.

And, I blame THEM for what we ended up with — ‘cause Bernie could’ve beaten his ass in the general election.

Either that, or investigated - what, with Comey being raked over the coals for simply posting a pic of a shell formation which he didn’t even create.

It remains, for me, the death that hit me the hardest in my whole life.

Passport photo I used, getting ready to
Study at the University of London in the Summer of ‘84.

Good times !!

Must not be available any longer. I just searched for it.

I don’t care for - or trust - A.I. , either. I believe society will come to eventually regret its current infatuation with it.

We’ll see …
