Day 2.5 of the attempt to get back to Northern Ontario - up highway 17 and on highway 11.
What are the conditions like folks?
That stretch from Thibeault Hill to Latchford in winter is like the old country song Tombstone Every Mile.

He thinks we are going to come back and spend money in a state where they put people in cages.

For whatever reason, female led punk bands really get me. Blondie was the first. Debbie Harry was my wife when I was young. I don't know if it was a mutual thing because I never actually met her, but I like to think it was.

Yesterday the President fell asleep, yet again, during a televised fake Cabinet meeting staged so that each of his courtiers could heap praise on him, praise for which he couldn't stay conscious. He woke up just long enough to spew racism. Why is this not being treated as an emergency? >

You know, apropos of nothing in particular, and although I haven't researched it yet, I strongly suspect that a president starting a foreign war to distract from his extensive ties with child sex traffickers is probably a high crime or misdemeanor under the Constitution's impeachment clauses.
