Someone must have gotten to him. President Trump essentially declared himself King Trump yesterday at the Coroanapalooza, stating the authority of the President was total, and that’s the way it has to be. This is probably the first time in history that the person that has all the authority over Read more…
Sorry. I had to get away for a little bit. Easter is not my season, but I had no desire to rain on anyone’s faith support system. Suffice it to say that it does not have the same effect on me, so I thought I’d sit it out, for everyone’s Read more…
I voted for Bernie. If you have been following this for awhile, I thoroughly discussed the drubbing he took from South Carolina on, and I gave Joe credit for it. I thought it was a political masterstroke, and it worked. In other words, we got beat, and Bernie acknowledged it Read more…
This posting got lost. Wrote it yesterday, when we still had an Acting Secretary of the Navy. Are you still watching the President’s daily reality show? I can’t take my eyes off it. If this was a movie it would fail miserably. Implausible. No one would act that way, and Read more…

This is relentless! Shouldn’t it have stopped by now? It’s out in the open, exposed, gruesomely naked. The President’s mishandling will be remembered forever, or as long as we have a history, anyway. This would be where shame would kick in for a normal human being, and corrective steps would Read more…
I have a dear friend at work. He is my age, a huge teddy bear of a man. He is an elder in a black evangelical church and his life is defined by his relationship with God. He is nearly my only progressive ally at work, it is Virginia after Read more…
I have decided to treat this time at home as my retirement. I honestly believe it is as close as I’m going to get, as the real thing passed me by. When the virus is controlled to the extent it is going to be, and our economy rises like the Read more…
This is more of a chat, I guess. Random thoughts from a day in the life of Corona. If you have read any of this before, you know in the famous words of CSN&Y (are you old enough?) I’m scared shitless. Not terribly old at 62, but over the Mendoza Read more…
