we did it! a perfectly structured democracy. it's got checks, it's got balances. this thing is made to last. there's only one weakness: bad guys. if somehow some bad guys who don't care about decorum got elected they could basically just tip the whole thing over. luckily such men are unelectable

The John Daly (Arnie+vodka)
The Mike Weir (Arnie+Kirkland Canadian)
The Lorena Ochoa (Arnie+tequila)
The Justin Rose (limeade+iced tea)

I hear the trumpets in my sleep. When I walk, they're playing in my head. If the universe has assigned me a theme song (which every hero must have), this is it: youtu.be/mjfYLKOGdqU?...

Ten years ago today, if my Google Photos app is correct, the NW Ford Dealers blimp went down for the last time. I applauded. Damn thing never dropped anything in the 300s. Rich getting richer. Man, fuck yo blimp.

I've invented a cocktail. Gin, Squirt, and lime juice. I'm calling it the "Pimplemousse" which reads terribly (think "Pimp" not "pimple") but is fun to say out loud.

I'm sleeping in my yard tonight and I'm waiting patiently for my air mattress to deflate enough that I can feel the contours of the almighty earth below. These kids better love me more tomorrow...
