Dad of two adult daughters who astound me every day. Retired Air Traffic Controller. I wake up every day shocked that I’ve been so lucky.

NOT the poet from the UK.
Trump is a paper tiger. He is all bluster and bark, but is weaker than any president in my lifetime. So weak that he knows that any of his EOs would NEVER make it through Congress. I posted this a couple months ago:

Trump just announced a Concentration Camp in Guantánamo Bay but what’s curious is that our Sec of Defense says that it will be a holding area for those going to their country of origin, and Trump says that it is for those “so terrible, we don’t even trust other countries to hold them.”

Which is it?

I’ve used Dawn dish soap for decades. Maybe my entire adult life. But this “New Fresh Scent” is awful. My kitchen smells like some weird locker room.

Please give us Classic Scent back!! This is “New Coke” all over again. #dawn #freshscent

Just watched the movie, “Past Lives.” Holy Moly!! That ending. Actually, the entirety. I’m stunned.

If you need action and thrills, it’s not for you. But if you want a powerful look on life evolving, check it out.

Ask me how I know that you have zero concept of the dangers posed to girls in schools. If anything, this has increased that risk.

When you play “Alice’s Restaurant” this Thanksgiving, give an extra moment of your time in remembrance for Alice, who died a couple days ago at 83.

Ok, so Trump has made clear that on Day 1 he intends to declare a National Emergency and direct the military to deport undocumented people in the US.

—How will he find these immigrants? Will soldiers be setting up checkpoints on all freeways checking for papers? Do we start carrying our passports?

A memory from 15 years ago:

Kid 1: Dad, can you turn it down? It’s shaking the floor.

Me: That's what it's supposed to do, sweetie.

Kids... <eye roll>

To all those who follow me:

I am not the poet/writer from the UK by the same name. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Me: Do you have spiritual beliefs that are important to you?

Mom: No. I’m Catholic.

Mom was always good for quotes like that, unceremoniously hilarious.

Talking to friends about how I’ve only eaten Cap’n Crunch as a snack, straight outa the box.

“John thinks Cap’n Crunch tastes like blood.”
