BOAT BOOT After a brief stint holding up the dock at the lake the shapely pontoonie made her way back to her winter quarters. Always an all-day affair with me nervously driving shotgun behind the massive boat on her massive throne. And, of course, after discovering a great route down back roads, one of our favored passages had a road closed sign naturally. So, we lumbered through Portland and skirted the construction zone at M-66. Ms Pontie is heedlessly unaware of the consternation she causes rolling down two-laners and startling hapless two-wheel riders on the road as her monster shadow dissolves their daylight.
GOLDEN ARCHES coming next...With a 2,000-person capacity, is the new ballroom going to be rented out for weddings? Partitioned off to hold multi-meetings? Just like a gold-plated hotel conference center. Considering the "people's house" is only a temporary rental turning it into your own house is pretty much taboo. And golly, another money-maker for the resident-in-chief. So, who is going to be using a garish, grotesque ballroom underwritten by tech giants and other oligarchs currying favor? Don't know how we missed exploiting all our national treasures until marmie got the keys. Hand slap to head. I'm sure that will change. And actually, and this is brilliant, paid for by our president suing his own country! If he only used his power for good.... Only the best architects. If preliminary drawings are to be believed they show a staircase leading into a wall and windows opening into each other. Low bid obviously or, friends of marmie.
I actually don't think the White House has sustained so much damage since the war of 1812, inflicted by our enemy-duh. Makes sense that after destroying two branches of government (Congress, White House) is the Supreme Court next on the list? Oh yeah, chief Johnnie is already handling that project. BTW about the talking point that other presidents made changes. Indoor plumbing comes to mind. Changes made through proper channels, input from proper channels and commissions and approval from Congress. Oh yes, remember them? Maybe the reno is just an elaborate tomb for the Epstein files-there is a bunker there already and the workers are being forced to sign NDA's, hmmm.
LOUVRE'D WINDOWS Talk about life imitating fantasy. The Louvre Museum heist is a case in point. People just ignore or curse at obtrusive construction projects, but they don't really look at them (explains why so many road workers get bonked) Thus a couple of dudes with a ladder land on a museum balcony, cut out the window and haul away 100 million in jewels. Then they slowly ride down the ladder to the ground, where their get-away vehicle (a giant snail according to Stephen Colbert) carries them off into the sunset only to be captured a few days later. No doubt by the modern-day version of Inspector Clouseau. There actually was a debonair guy in a hat and umbrella with the police, so that is not so far-fetched of an idea. Having visited the museum I'm surprised that doesn't happen more often as the place is usually packed with visitors and priceless gee-gaws are everywhere. Though one imagines the place is wired, except for that window of course so who knew that?
FIND YOUR BLISS Couple of notes from last week's protest. In case I need to explain it, Marmie himself said he should be a king-hence the No Kings battle cry. No trash left behind or violent protests unless you count the plastic creatures sprinkled among 7 million citizens marching. I especially like the Anti-Grans that showed up (old ladies). Because he can't stop himself, in what democratic, representative government of ALL the people would one see its President sending out a meme piloting a fighter jet dropping excrement on the protesters. Disgusting and very telling that he is so easily riled up. So, the protest worked. True to form, when a higher road is called for marmie wallows in the gutters. And man get some fiber in you-that stuff was loose! Strangely my symbol for many years has been the frog, long story...
Podcast recording this week, then on to the Lake for All Hallows, my favorite holiday. Supposed to be rainy, but hopefully my little creatures will show up. I bought the big candy bars this time and, of course, Butter Shots for the Moms and Dads. Peace out/stay strong...💚 💀👾👿 💙💛
