Left the office,
Walked 50 feet out the door,
Bent down and literally touched grass,

The Dead Sea effect will play out over the coming year or two, but it will happen.

Or when McConnell was chased out of a resraurant and not allowed a peaceful meal.
Or when Cruz abandoned Texas during the deep freeze and we shamed him into going home.

Do that.
Wish my family luck, their streaming may (likely will) be adversely impacted.
Something that they might see with pride but the rest of us would see with derision.

As in, they call that getting slammed.
So next time you see a request to email your rep, or call, keep that in mind.
TWENTY is a lot.
