What we need is, when the Articles of Impeachment go out to the House floor for the final vote, for one Democrat representative not in a significant position on a committee or in an “at risk” seat (in other words, someone with nothing to lose) to stand up and call out these GOP toadies to their faces. Drop the decorum…

I’ve got so many I have them dedicated to specific beverages. A regular coffee mug. A decaf coffee mug. One for hot chocolate. One for when I’m mixing coffee and hot chocolate. One for tea. A travel mug. One for hot alcoholic drinks. One for when I’m mixing ice cream and coffee......

If you could have any job in the world - any job at all - what would it be?

It should also be noted that in this day and age, it is virtually IMPOSSIBLE to succeed in national politics WITHOUT getting some corporate money along the way. Yes, it would be lovely to get corporate money out of politics - but as a practical matter, it ain’t gonna happen. It’s just too darn expensive to run for a…

And there’s nothing like entering a happy home and inhaling deeply the aromas of a pot of mulled wine simmering on the stove.....

I always get a little annoyed with these “Superlative of the Year” lists. Not for anything in them, but that they are published before the year is really over!

Honey butter. Especially on your breakfast toast/bagels/muffins/etc.

I’m Chiquita Banana, and I’ve come to say
Bananas have to ripen in a certain way
When they are flecked with brown and have a golden hue
Bananas taste the best and they’re the best for you

You can put them in a salad
You can put them in a pie-yi-yi
Any way you want to eat them
It’s impossible to beat them

But bananas like the…

Will the frame contain a hidden shredder?

Regarding Mulvaney, Pompeo, Giuliani, et al. - they may have resisted a House subpoena to testify, but they can still be summoned for the Senate trial!

Is health care the only issue we’re worried about? It’s important, sure, but any legislative plan has got to get through Congress first - and unless the Dems win the Senate AND keep the House, anything the Dem president proposes isn’t getting out of there in any recognizable form.

That’s where I got it from......

Can we give a shout-out to Sarah Finn and all the other casting directors in the MCU for actually assembling the Avengers? From Robert Downey Jr to Paul Rudd to Karen Gillian, every actor turned out to be perfect for their roles.

It would have been so cool if Red Skull saw them fighting and said, “You know what? I’m tired of living on this jerkwater planet. I’m done; I’ve had enough. You kids go save the world or whatever....” and then jumped off the cliff.

I’ll settle for some Saurian Brandy, thank you. I can’t afford the rehab from a PGGB.

Pitas make an acceptable substitute. Place a large one over a small plate (for support), and it’ll do just fine.

The tour needs musical accompaniment.

There’s a subtle difference between *being* a “Moderate” and *appealing* to the “Moderates”. We need all the help we can get next November. Deliberately alienating a large section of the voting population because they aren’t as thrilled as we are on our more radical proposals is suicidal.

That’s one of those alcohol-free things, right? If it doesn’t have alcohol, it’s not beer.....

Has it been ten seasons already?
