Hero

HST is one of my heroes. This is a great movie about him, his passion, and those heady days of my generation in the late 1960s-70s. This movie captures the excitement, the struggle and the hope of those days. 

Thompson was a true patriot. George W. Bush killed him. We can only imagine his views on Donald Trump and what Trumpism says about America and the American Dream. 

I wish that he could have stood it and was here to put his words to the frustration, fear, loathing and lost hope we have felt since Trump's emergence as a force in the Republican Party. Nobody could do it better.

Sad Day in America - Upset About Losing the Election, Trump Incites Insurrection. Supporters Storm U.S. Capitol Building

The "Law and Order President," my ass. These people are thngs and domestic terrorists not legitimate political protesters. Trump's encouragement and lack of response are "deplorable" and disingenuos; especially given his law and order rhetoric and heavy-handed response to the Black Lives Matter protests months ago. His faux-concern then about defasing Confederate statutes is exposed as political nonsense. Where is his concern about the sanctity of the U. S. Capitol Building? Trump and all that support him should be ashamed.

This Book Says It All

Great book by a great writer. A book that needed to be written.

Who needs tell-alls from Anonymous, Mattis, Mary Trump, etc.?? This book says it all.

Read it, weep and share it with your friends.

(PS - I'm sorry this website is getting so political. It is hard not to be in these crazy times.)

Quote of the Day

This isn't original but it is appropriate:
"If you don't like wearing a mask, you are definitely not going to like a ventilator."

I Hate to Get Political but I Can't Resist This One


I apologize to my Trump-accepting, "Fake News" hating, democratic Socialist fearing but otherwise intelligent Republican friends. I can accept your differing political views but tolerating Trump is too much.
