Rumblings

  • Normally the “72 Hour Rule” means that you shouldn’t form or state an opinion on news of a crisis until there’s been time for things to settle down and information to become clear.
    • I’m beginning to think we need a “72 Hour Rule” for President Trump.
    • Trump says something outrageous. Press is outraged
      • Outrageous turns out to be true a few days later. Press is even more outraged
    • Next day, Trump does something even more outrageous. Conservatives are outraged.
      • The opponent who Trump did something outrageous to/with backs down between 3 and 36 hours later. Libertarians and Liberals are outraged. Conservatives get really quiet really quick.
    • False Spring is about to fade away here in Kentucky. I took advantage of nice, relatively dry weather yesterday to remove the oak leaves and trash the folks who drive through my neighborhood throw out the car window out of the culvert under our driveway.
      • Soon, the spring rains will come, turning my front yard into both a river and a swamp. I just wish it would drown out the moles.
      • I also trimmed the goldenrod in your front yard. I would have cut it down and set the stump on fire while dancing around it naked, but Irish Woman said it did a good job of making the yard ‘pretty’.
        • Yes, I have seasonal allergies. Why do you ask?

    Would replacing it with a handy source of digitalis… I mean, foxglove – be an acceptable height/flower replacement? It’s far less hateful than ragweed!
