As to the Political Resurgence, It Won't Happen

The only word for the electorate is disgust and the reaction is withdrawal from it since there's no other positive move.  When we see both parties willingly endorsing continuing the endless killing, our only vote is for a meteorite to strike the Earth to wipe the disease off the face of the Universe.

That fate may not be deserved but there's not one scintilla of evidence to convince Judge Roy Bean to grant mercy.  He asks, "Why should I not hang those cattle-rusting, horse-stealing varmints?"


So why shouldn't he rule to wipe out the Earth when there are so many reasons he should?

It seems the sign lasted longer than the paint and that matters because we assume at some point the paint really could deter climbing but we submit that's probably because it was still wet.


Polish people come to Scotland and make lovely sandwich shops even when Brits can sometimes be real pricks toward them

The Polish people who ran the Belly Buster were lovely and this became my home in Leith during some exceptionally desperate times.  I had almost no money, my US passport was expired, the government was shut down, and I was stuck in an unheated flat.  There was a whole lot of misery but always it was a joyful time when I went here and they were always so cool about letting me take up a chair so I could use their WiFi.


Cadillac Man and I were talking of pilgrimages earlier tonight and there's no particular reason it has to be some major spiritual quest to find the Lord.  It didn't come up when we talked but some say God is in everyone so any pilgrimage which takes us out to find his chill'uns must reveal his face.  That isn't why I do it but it means to me more than anything anyone ever says to me about religion.
