The Magic Date

Late last summer, I jokingly told my dad that the virus would magically disappear on November 4th because that was the day after the election.  Looking back, I can see I was a bit naïve.  The magic date wasn’t November 4th, it was January 20th. You see, if the virus

He’s No Donald Trump

Back in August, I challenged “friends” who proclaimed to be Democrats to tell me why on earth they would vote for Joe Biden.  I asked them to tell me what, specifically, about his policies they believed would make him the best candidate for President of the United States.  I sincerely

Philosophical Racism

Apparently, the unofficial slogan in Ventura County California is “We’re not the San Fernando Valley”.  It can’t be widely known because I’ve lived here for over 10 years and have never heard of it before today.  I also learned today that somehow the unofficial slogan is racist. It seems that

Hard Scrabble

I used to play Scrabble with my mom.  We lived in different states so we played together online.  Over the years we played dozens of games against each other.  And it was hard.  I lost nearly every time.  Either my mom was pretty good at playing Scrabble or she cheated.
