I’m saving this for later, but some of you might need it today. I give you a poem that is one of my most treasured seasonal rituals: Winter Solstice, Camelot Station, by John M Ford.

I chatted a moment with Ron Glass and commiserated about wearing hard contact lenses. He wore them in the two-person story 'Eye of Newton' in the revived Twilight Zone series in the 1980's and you could tell they were pretty uncomfortable.
Right folks. Feeling rather down at the moment so bringing back an oldie

A fired HHS worker asks a senator about layoffs that are hurting services for “people with disabilities” and asks what he’ll do to help them.
Once the senator is safely behind his staff in the elevator, he ignores the suffering & replies that the worker is a “clown” who “deserved” to be fired.

NEW — This AM former HHS staffers confronted Sen. Jim Banks (R-IN) about slashing budgets and staff, per video shared with me by Mack Schroeder, a former Budget Analyst for the Office of the Secretary.
Banks tells Schroeder he "probably deserved" to lose his job "because you seem like a clown."
