Calm before the storm....

this is a good read

i don’t think it’s political but I’m sure the Mods will move it




Those of us who were part of the Baby Boom generation, now in our 60s and 70s, no longer recognize the nation in which we grew up. We are strangers in a land that gets stranger by the day.

We believed in the American dream. We worked hard, paid our taxes and obeyed the law —even laws we thought were idiotic.

We married and had children. Today’s young adults cohabit and have pets.

We struggled to raise families. Some of us went to war, like our fathers and grandfathers before us. We thought that when we grew old, there would be more for us – more than alienation.

So sad but so true. No country for old men, as most here likely already know, is also the title to an excellent movie. Snowed in today, work closed. Maybe I will watch it.

watch the Mule too , but when I watched the teasers , I got some feelings of paranoia , from my old days of bootlegging and ptsd from a raid on my crib in Kansas , swat team , helicopter , and city and county po po’s , the whole nine yards

its not fun to be cuffed up

 

[Bubba]

OK, deal I will que it up. I've already seen No Country for old men anyway and I have not seen The Mule.
Nobodys changing anybodys mind these days, we are just throwing out thought puke for the most part, just banter.
We need that mix of opinion, most of us have the same values, we just interpret political things differently. If not, this would be one boring thread.

WHew....almost changed my mind! LOL..

32F @ 75% RH, partially cloudy with 3 mph wind and predicted to reach 48F.

Got two bites on my Craigs list free transmissions ad and they should both be gone by noon today. I have one box slated for trash pickup at the front of the garage, but the transmissions are the last thing in the way of the garage door installers, scheduled for the 21st.
