So what the heck is going on in this mad, mad world of ours. Truly, it spins more and more frenetically and as another title goes - Stop the World, I Want to Get Off. But...... not possible, is it, unless one is an astronaut, so we need to pay more attention to our surroundings.
So, what is going on? A whole lot, as I see it, a great deal of scary stuff, aggravating stuff, but also some good things, though in today's world the good is often covered over by the muck of the bad.
So, Sasha Barak is attending University of Michigan, a boost to the college, chosen over Ivies, and we wish her well. Now let her alone so she can be a college student, not a celebrity.
So, football is undergoing another examination of its soul and values and how to proceed safely and responsibly, yet be profitable as well. Helmets, mouthpieces, concussions, body pain, crowd pleasing tactics and lots of money for colleges. What will prevail? If up to me, I would cancel it out as too dangerous and too much certainty of bodily harm. Not worth it. There are other versions and other sports.
So, Selma Blair added more to her heroic battle with MS, bad disease. Part of me hangs in there with her, for I know the battles faced with a body that has turned renegade on one. I wish her well. But, with the next so.... we see hope for a future.
So......some students, - students - have developed an experimental drug which crosses the blood-brain barrier and can hopefully cure one of the worst of brain cancers - glioblastoma. Wow! What is even better, is that this would open the pathways for more drugs for other neuro degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, PD, so many. And by students! But....many years of testing to go. Hurry it up, please!
So, it seems that only some of our service people in our armed forces are worthy of having contributions recognized and appreciated as their children are accorded citizenship. Nope, evidently not good enough for the Demented One so filled with hatred that he cannot see past his nose, or rather, his bloated self. Hmmm, wonder if that new drug would be of any use here? Just sayin', just askin', only good intentions in mind. So we are told that it will affect not so many, but who can believe this administration and its spokespeople, their intentions and the virulence of their hatred of 'the other'. Who the hell will want to serve if we screw them royal? There are so many who have worked for the forces or governmental agencies, but why will they now? Yet another way to brain drain our country. Good going there, Donald.
So, oh yeah, not to worry if you commit crimes, for a pardon is awaiting you from that good old boy, the Donald, that is, if you are doing his bidding. Hmmm, wonder what the charge is for recruiting people to break the law? Conspiracy? RICO? A girl can dream, can she not? Ahhhhhhh
So, O'Donnell makes a booboo and accused Trump of having his Deutsch Bank loans co- signed by Russian oligarchs. Believeable, but evidently, not two times or two sources corroborated. So O'Donnell apologizes for mentioning them, but notice - not for the truth of them and it is quite clear he believes the accusation is true, but does not have the two source verification. Hey, here is an idea that might work. Tell the apoplectic Trump to open his financial books, documents and records and definitively prove the falsehood - or can he not do that because...... Well, you fill in the blanks; I already have - long ago at that!
So, same old, same old. It seems that the fatcats and bigshots of the UAW have taken the hard earned funds of the workers and lived jolly old lives with them. Nothing ever changes, does it? Will it ever? Certainly not in this amoral world of ours. Not when our ostensible leader is a morally deficient one himself with so much financial gray shadows over him that he is a walking rain storm himself! Such lovely role models we are providing for our children. Oh, be proud, so proud!!
So, but then again, if one has money one can then spend lots of it on twisted ads that oppose someone you are angry with. Of course, great thinking, forgetting where else that $500,000 could have been spent, what conditions it might have ameliorated but nope, much better to drop more poison into the mix. Yup! At least it pumps some money into the economy! Huh!
So, so, at least it seems there are rats deserting the Republican ship, figuring out that if they are so cowardly that they cannot oppose this illegitimate president of ours, or rather, theirs, then they will just leave and fix that personal mess. Good for the Democrats, for that leaves open the possibility of regaining the Senate. Wow!!! But, be careful about the Democrats chosen to run, for we need no more of the extreme end, the ones who also chatter with hatred and enmity and doing that from the left does not make it any more palatable to the targets of that hatred.
So, what to do now? Go prepare for the scariest hurricane ever, about to hit Florida over the weekend and into Monday. Hmmmm, Wall vs. All takes on an even more frighening relevance now, does it not?
So......., so......... go figure it out. I cannot.
