The Nation: The Long Nightmare of Trump’s Border Wall Is Still Going
That article won’t tell you. It’s more of a Progressive fantasy horror show. The article is awesome because it is pure alarmism. There is no effort to inform, just generate outrage. That aren’t even any pictures or maps to distract from the big scary.
When I woke up from my nap, Sparky told me that he wants to be a scientific dog. He said he’d be a good scientific dog because he can sniff and smell, et cetera, et cetera, etcetera.
As usual, I don’t know what the hell he’s talking about.
Sparky likes a car ride, so he wanted to come along to the mulch yard. It was a longer day than he’d expected.
The RSVP online is a big improvement. Along with the response tab, there are additional tabs for the registry, travel arrangements and the couple’s backstory.
Is it typical for a wedding invitation to offer guidance on proper attire?
Since Thursday, Sparky and I have been camping at Findley State Park. It was dismal, and Sparky was blaming me.
When I started teaching at Normandy in 1995, I was coming off of an engineering career that was mentally challenging because every project was unique and exhausting because of the long hours on site and extensive travel.
I was enthusiastic. Normandy was a great school for me because nobody was paying attention. I could do whatever I wanted, and I wanted to do so many things. I didn’t care about the time, money or effort, if something seemed like a good idea, then we did it. The mural was a good idea.

At the time, it was the radioactive fallout over Scandinavia that got my attention. Ten years later, I had a student who had been there.
Poor Funkenhund1, he thinks that I’m screwing with him.
Before we head home, Sparky gets a Slim Jim. That’s the deal when we go on a car ride.
Melania Trump unveils a White House replica beehive buzzing with new colonies on the South Lawn
First lady Melania Trump on Friday announced a sweet new addition to the South Lawn, expanding the White House honey program with a newly installed and fully functioning beehive modeled after the executive mansion.
The queen-worthy new hive, hand-crafted by a local Virginia artisan in the image of the White House, will add two new bee colonies to the property’s existing two.
That seems like a good idea, but it’s not going to stay pretty. Everything about bees is sticky. Melania can probably call Goddard Space Flight Center and get a new mini White House printed up. NASA has large volume 3-D printers, and they are only 6 miles away.
