Just another day.

Late December here in the wasteland time zone.  Three days before the Holiday that I don't celebrate, Bah humbug.  And just a few more before my parent's 57th wedding anniversary.   EGADS!!!

I know marriage is a fine institution, but who wants to be institutionalized.   Fifty-seven years?  I can't imagine being with the same person for that long.  Not that it's likely to happen, A) I'm not certain the woman exists who would put up with my dumb-ass for that long; B) if I entered a long term relationship today, I would be less than six-months shy of my 113th birthday when I celebrated my 57th anniversary.  I'm not certain I have that much time left.

"You've been married 75 years, why in the world are you seeking a divorce now?"

"We're waiting for the children to...."

"What, grow up?"

"No, we're waiting for the children to die."

In other news, Trump is still not playing well with others, and trying to implode, Cruz is 4 points behind in the polls.  Carson is falling, people beginning to see him as a flash in the pan.  Jeb and the fat man round out the top five goopers.   According to a new poll by Quinnipiac University Bernie Sanders destroys Republican candidate Donald Trump in a general election by 13 percentage points.

Today, fifty percent of Americans would be embarrassed if the Trumper were elected as President.  Really?  What about those of us who be will incensed, outraged and sickened?  What about those numbers?

It's dinner time, the hockey game starts in a few minutes, #LetsGoBlues. How about trying to play a full 60 minutes tonight?  Kay, thanks.  Luv ya buh bye. 

As always, thanks for sticking around...

See you tomorrow.
