Late again

I hoping to get back to here sooner, but didn't make it.
Went to the art festival, but had to take my cane with me. The fair is on main street and is about a quarter mile long, and uphill. The worst part for me was the trip downhill; had to stop at times and lean on my cane when spasms hit. After getting home they got worse, and I ended up fighting them for several days. Haven't had any in the last couple of days, but my sciatica is keeping me awake a lot, and makes it difficult to focus sometimes.

Looks like the police were lucky and found out about a teen who was building a bomb to set off in his high school from which he had been expelled.
Looks like he was a stoner with a lukewarm IQ; why am I not surprised?

**********************************************************

Supposedly the POTUS has a plan for the economy. Of course, he can't reveal it until he is done campaigning and has taken a vacation (he takes more vacations than anyone I've ever heard of).
I don't have much faith in him coming up with anything that will work. Time and again he has shown that both he and his advisers have no knowledge of economics or business; I can only imagine what sort of bullshit that bunch will try to pass off as a recovery plan.

**********************************************************

Tomorrow (Aug 18) is my 38th wedding anniversary; it was the best thing that ever happened to me, and the smartest thing I've ever done. I'm just lucky that I married the amazing woman that is my wife, Sandy.
Damn, but the time really flies.

In an oldies mood; seems to make me feel better when I'm feeling down.

What, the 36th and 37th weren't so good?

Happy Anniversary!

I wish they would quit publishing stories of the kids who build bombs or fire off guns in school. Seems the more attention they get, the more other kids attempt the same.
