Jerry Reynolds said:
Thanks, Dave and Michael
Explaining America to those outside is rather like explaining an orgasm to a virgin. – but here goes…
America died, for many people, when the races were integrated, when a black president was elected, when the others were let in, when women began to excel in the workplace, when abortion became legal, when gays were allowed to marry; have families, and when trans gender people became famous. They experienced a sense of being deprived of something to which they are entitled. It is the discontent felt when one compares their position in life to others who they feel are equal or inferior but have unfairly had more success than them.
This is the conversation we are having with each other, right now, it’s loud, dangerous and right out the front yard.

I watched all 5 hours of it live yesterday fascinated and dumbfounded by the nonesense of it all. . And they say The US is Democratic.- far from it.

Morning Coffee
L. B. Mek said:
a symbol of good luck for a fresh new day, though I imagine the erratic wing flaps that will accompany its heady sips - headrush, won\'t be so fun
for that poor little bird,

\'ask not: where or why or when

just simply know, my friend
you\'ll be missed - on one side

I like this one Jerry. As a 73 year old \'lefty\' I am living on borrowed time since the average life expectancy for left-handed males is 67.3 years (for right-handers it is 76.3 years)!

Ground Hog Day
Michael Edwards said:
Nothing comes to mind but how about this:
Snowed again last night
Maybe that ground hog was right
A poetic start but sad to say
Six weeks more of winter\'s grey.
