“Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country” is not a famous quote from a politician. It was created by a teacher as a typing drill, back in 1918. It was originally “party” but was changed to “country” later on. I know I typed that phrase many times in high school (1/x)

I just spent time on FB, composing a post about George Will—remember him? I was proud of it. Lost it, dang it. But I will recap here. My cats pulled some books off a shelf. One of those books was “Men at Work”—a really great book about baseball written by Will. We wondered if he is still (1/3)

I’m a little sad tonight, but also a little angry. I just kicked 2 old friends off my FB friends list—I’ve known them for over 50-60 years. Republicans who don’t fact check. I wasn’t going to yeet them but it was time. I can’t just ignore untrue posts anymore.
