A great movie and a wonderful book. The opening paragraph is a killer.

Had a great time at the Anoka MN No Kings rally - huge crowd, high energy, lots of singing and fellowship. Plus, inflatable animals and bubbles!

My sign is a homage to Stephen Colbert.

Red suburb of Minneapolis - huge turnout, lots of frogs and unicorns, big energy. And the signs! Here’s mine (in homage to Stephen Colbert.)

Just returning from a rally in a red part of MN. Huge turnout, great energy, fun and fellowship. Plus, my sign was a big hit (…with apologies to Stephen Colbert.)

Payday? What??? I never got paid!

All I have is this button from the MN State Fair.

Just voted in the MN-34B special election to fill the state House seat once held by Melissa Hortman. She held that seat for 20+ years before she was assassinated.

The yard signs memorializing her are still standing in my neighborhood: “thank you Melissa. You had our backs. Now we have yours.”

I’ve been posting this everywhere, but here’s the button I got from the DFL folks at the Minnesota State Fair…

No check, but I did get this button at the Minnesota State Fair.

Gotta say, this was my favorite swag from the Minnesota State Fair. Good job, DFL. I’ll wear it proudly.

Both of these singers died within the past month. To women of a certain age - especially those who were naive geeky middle school girls in the 70s - one stands head and shoulders above the other.

Bobby > Ozzy.

I’d pay good money to see that. Multiple times.

Hmmm. Would you also want to smell like a clean Girl Scout cookie?

I mean, I love Thin Mints as much as the next guy, but….
