A Wee Bit From Dublin Ohio

The youngest of our brood turned forty today. I don't know who's more depressed, him or me. He was, in his early years, unique beyond hi years. As a first grader, the night before school, he would lay out what he was going to wear the next day. All had to be color coordinated from penny loafers to his button down collared shirt. Every morning he would shampoo and blow dry his hair. He was the quintessential Alex P. Keaton of the 1970's--------and still is.

My wish is he has a much more interesting 40th birthday than did I. A high school basketball game doesn't quite make it for grandiose celebrations.

Obama spoke at a mosque yesterday.  I recall when he first took office he spoke at Georgetown University, a Catholic institution. He requested the school cover all crucifixes and religious pictures. Sadly, school officials complied.

Our unemployment rate is at 5% according to the current administration. Bernie Sanders, among other sources, say this is incorrect(a lie). It's at 10.5%

Fascinating how it was 64 degrees and sunny in Dublin yesterday. Today the worm has turned(what the heck does that mean, anyway)and it's overcast and a balmy 22.

We're now 10 day past Al Gore's dire prediction from ten years ago that if nothing was done about global warming the world, as we knew it, would end. "Earth to Al, we're still here". Does one suspect his warnings might have had anything to do with lining his pocket?

I'm boycotting all news shows when the discussion deals with primaries. Need I explain more?

If the administration has been so successful why is it the two old geezers running for the Jackass Party say they will fix the economy, put the middle class back to work and restore our leadership in the world?

Every day at 11 I drive to the driving range in Westerville, Ohio to hook up with eight other guys. Heated cubicles help. I hit thousands of golf balls a year and should be great. I'm not, though, and there's a good reason for this. I stink!

The next time you see a Bernie bumper sticker ask the owner of it to give you a definition for socialism. Don't be obnoxious when doing it. Tell them your confused and don't know what it is.
Don't expect an answer.

Bernie has many supporters among the Hollywood elite. Have they checked out his tax plan for them?
