Mario Cuomo died yesterday. The canonization has begun. Gag me. I had to survive here with him as a 3 termed.

Do you watch Downton Abbey?

If you do, a reminder that the new season begins on Sunday night.

Absolutely - can hardly wait. Do you watch Call the Midwife?

They re-ran it here last month, to get people up to speed. I’m enjoying Elementary lately, watching season 1. And Sherlock, from the beeb.

It is 38 and drizzling, but it is supposed to get up to a balmy 45-but with rain. I went to a customer’s house to make sure the plastic was still covering the forms for the patio we’re building after it gets drier and warmer.

Every speech that Obama makes
Is still one more jobation-
But we haven’t heard as many
Because he’s been on vacation

It’s been nice not to cringe
When he goes for a day or two
Without saying how great he is
And telling everyone what to do

Even the chef said to shove it,
That’s what all the tabloids say
I’ll bet it was a kind of hell
To cook for Michelle each day...

http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/policing-is-a-dirty-job-but-nobodys-gotta-do-it-6-ideas-for-a-cop-free-world-20141216#ixzz3NbNe9UXm

There is a lot of idiocy on parade here, but I like this idea the best:

The cannabis trade that used to employ poor Blacks, Latinos, indigenous and poor whites in its distribution is now starting to be monopolized by already-rich landowners. That means that wide-scale decriminalization will need to come with economic programs and community projects.

It sounds like Harry’s mob connections are displeased-probably because he couldn’t get enough fraud and smearing together to keep the senate-he will not be able to get more funding passed to their money laundering operations now...

He may have injured himself some other times-he seems the type who never reads/follows safety instructions on equipment and tools-so the only health issue he has is thinking instructions are for other people and he can’t get injured-but the timing is just too right for this injury to be mob-related...

Environmentalists go from Jobation
To loud, in-your-face reprobation
So we see things their way
And to make the "rich" pay
For their Utopian conglobation

I’m a live and let live person-but I didn’t think it was possible to consume as much koolaid as the author of that RS article has been drinking and remain among the living-I think the main thing most of those ideas would produce would be a higher rate of “hard” crimes like theft, murder and rape, because the only deterrents are being shunned and having your hands smacked-I say it wouldn’t work...

It is pretty good - has already been on for 3 or 4 seasons - based on the medical set up in the 40’s/50’s in Great Britain - Catholic charity with nuns and nurses in a poor section of town. It is based on the diary of one of the nurses and beautifully done. It is a PBS show

We were discussing his yearly injuries earlier here at the house - I’ve always had my suspicions about him beyond is disgusting antics in Congress..... perhaps he approached the wrong person.....

People are so afraid of getting involved now because they fear being sued, can you imagine citizen patrols?

Over the last two days I watched the BBC Pride and Prejudice mini-series on the ovation channel, and most of The Tudors on BBCA-it was great.

I never heard of Call the Midwife-what channel is it on?

I’ve heard/read for years that Reid has deep and longtime mob connections-when you think about it, it is probably impossible to succeed in politics there without them-Las Vegas has been run by the mob since forever-some of Nixon’s mob buddies were Vegas types, too.

If one of them is the author, then I was obviously right about the koolaid consumption-but the picture needs a bong...

It’ll be a shame to see that cute bobblehead she’s got being sawed off.
