I will post a new edition tomorrow.

I didn't want to shortchange your visit here completely.

Today was a day to run errands in Santa Cruz and it turned out to be a lovely day spent with friends along the way. A much needed  respite from Trump. By the way, every single person that I spoke to today thinks he is an idiot, and they brought it up, not me. To be totally accurate my amigos used the word loco frequently in one sentence.

I prayed that Trump would get a hangnail that would temporarily stop his tweeting.  I prayed  "Jesus Christ, he needs a bad hangnail!" Jesus didn't answer.

Keep the faith amigos. We outnumber them bigly.


I will set the scene for the photo below: I was standing under a tree on a street corner avoiding the searing sun today, when a dog plops herself in a puddle beside me. She began drinking out of the flower and leaf laced water with glee. Please click on the photo for a larger view.






Do-it-yourself Voodoo Doll. At this point I'd try just about anything.

Peace.

This TV Series Is About Deep Cover Soviet Agents. Trump Needs To Watch it.
For a while now, FX’s Cold War thriller The Americans has occupied a bittersweet place in the television landscape: The series is regularly dubbed the best drama on television by top critics and publications, but it can never seem to fully click with audiences. With awards bodies, at least, it finally found success for Season 4, netting its first major Emmy and Golden Globe nominations in 2016. But now, there’s some reason to be optimistic for the show breaking out with viewers, too.
