Sadly, the youth of today have never known a morally upright society so they can’t appreciate it. A++++

Wasn’t that show on right after the cartoon about a little yellow boid?

This word is perfect for me today. It is my firstborn’s birthday and I miss her terribly. She would have been 30 today.

Comey was told “you’re fired”
Perhaps now Hillary is so sad-
And lost in a state of saudade
For all the power she once had

It would be some poetic justice
If she is nervous and jumpy, too
As she sits around just waiting
For the fall of that other shoe

Comey was most likely purchased
Or threatened with something dire
Now she fears he’ll drop the dime-
Let’s hope it lights her hair on fire...

Nemesis insisted on cooking Tuesday night-as soon as the meal was served, I decided I really can’t handle him doing anything more complicated to meat than grilling it, which he is very good at when I’m eating there-he conjured up the most awful meatloaf I’ve ever tasted. It was so bland the only thing I could taste was tomato, and the texture was like something that had been in a blender-another single guy co-worker told him to just mix chopped onion, Ritz crackers, salt and pepper with ground meat, throw it in a loaf pan, pour a jar of Ragu spaghetti sauce over it, cook in the oven and call it meatloaf. When he asked me how it was, I said it was interesting-as I thought horrible-but interesting...

When he went to turn on the TV, I sneaked into the kitchen, wrapped what was on my plate in a paper towel, put it in the trash and got another serving of Brussels sprouts-I was starving by Wednesday morning, and had lost a pound of weight-will not let that man cook anything like that ever, ever again when I’m over there...

I love meat loaf, but that sounds gosh awful. Seems Trump loves meat loaf, too.

The boy to his father, after last night’s NHL games:

“Saudade, when will it be that someone besides Pittsburgh wins the Stanley Cup (or the Sabres have a team that’s better than mediocre ?)”

I believe the western teams are stronger than the east.

Maybe so… It’s nice to see that the Pred’s have gotten this far, and there’s some new blood for a change in the final rounds.

Watch them tonight. You’ll see how good they are. We’re banking on the Ducks being tired from the last 7.
