In the days after 9/11 the Feds were kicking in doors all over and arresting anyone remotely suspected of involvement in the attacks and then frog marching them off to Gitmo. Here’s a list of were to start www.bbc.com/news/5557… Commence kicking.

The State of New York is sending National Guard troops to Washington DC, joining Maryland and Virginia. Interesting.

It’s not clear who exactly, is in charge of the USA right now.

The leaders of this coup attempt should be sent to Guantanamo Bay detention camp.

I’m feeling a lot better knowing that Democrats will gain control of the US Senate. Normally, I would be a little uncomfortable having a pastor being elected to the Senate, but not this time, I think we need more people with a moral compass in Washington just now.

No good deed will go unpunished: FDA Will Charge Charlotte Distillery $14,000 For Making Hand Sanitizer At Start Of The Pandemic

We are fools. We should have built the precious wall around Washington D. C. Keep all the politicians and camp followers in. Let the innocent people out and then slam the gates closed so the politicians can go all Lord of the Flies on each other on the inside.

I’m not normally into Metal music, but I just discovered, listened to the band Unleash the Archers and I’m stunned. The band is so tight and the vocals outstanding. Epic. “Awakening” www.youtube.com/watch

Here is your feel good story for the day, about a little girl who made a fairy garden and a neighbor who pretended to be a fairy.

The holiday season must be heaven for cats. They get a tree to lay under/knock over/otherwise mess with and they get all those empty Amazon boxes to nest in. Wrapping paper to lie on while the human is trying to wrap gifts. Plus leftovers.

Pandemic Chronicles: Somehow Friday nights have become frozen pizza nights. I’m not complaining.

Somebody, please sue Ohio.

From the Prepper File: It’s come to this. DIY home haircut trimmer delivered. I’m not quite there yet, but soon. It’s made by Remington and it has it’s own vacuum/hair collection chamber. The weakest link in this mad scheme is me.

I’m thinking we need to shorten the transition period between election day and the day a new president takes power. We need to knock off about 20 to 30 days.

Corona Vaccines: the next question is, how long does the immunity last?

Several weeks later, I’m still watching reaction videos. I enjoy seeing a new generation getting blown away by The Rightous Brothers, Tom Jones, Queen. I’m (re)discovering to. Fable FrenchTastic are good. cc. @macgenie

I must have been sleeping in class, again. I see we have plugins now at Micro.blog! Anybody using them? Which ones and what do you think?

I’m glad this week is almost over. I’ve been obliged to attend meetings and run public errands, standing in lines, all week. 2 more errands today and then I can bunker down like a proper grumpy old git.

I found out last night Covid, or close calls requiring self isolation with Covid contacts, has spread through my immediate neighborhood. I’m guessing it’s via the schools. The lag in testing results isn’t helping. I hope everybody recovers 2 full health quickly.

Times I should not interact on social networks: 1. Before first cup of morning coffee, cos I’m grumpy. 2. During and after having to fix some computer/Internet fail and I’m grumpy. 3. After supper when I’m tired, doom-scrolling and grumpy. That leaves 2 hours open.

Why in the heck do I have to keep reentering my Outlook PW in my iPhone about every 3 days?
