I wish I could afford to attend one of Tony Robbins' private seminars, but it's just way too expensive. A trip to Florida wouldn't be so bad.

Does anyone else see his disorder and draw of the charismatic talking head.

I wonder how many pocket fisherman he would have bought from Ron Popeil.

Seventy years ago, the Rosenbergs went to the electric chair for giving nuclear secrets to Russia. It seems clear to me that Ethel knew about her husband's activity but was not involved directly, and chose to stand with him.

Fast forward to 2021. A crowd storms the Capitol, with the intent to potentially kill a number of politicians, killing and seriously injuring several cops, and egged on by a number of other politicians.

The rioters get a few years, at best, and the leaders are still free, and holding positions of power.

There's something seriously wrong here.

It ain't over, yet. I'm hoping it wraps up in time for the guilty to go to jail, so that they can be pardoned by the 2024 rethuglican administration. That's sarcastic jest, I guess. The US is swirling the drain.

Gee, thanks so much Karm for whining at 3:30 in the morning till you wake me up just so you can curl up and go back to sleep.  I'm tempted to poke you repeatedly to keep you awake.
