Look Busy! Jesus is Coming!

Sarah Palin is one amazing woman!
She, personally, has performed two miracles
in just the last two weeks.

First, she espied a "Death Panel" in proposed health care legislation.
There was no Death Panel in the legislation. There never was.
There was only the proposal to pay doctors to spend time
with people who wanted to prepare living wills, something
even Sarah Palin has endorsed in the past. But her eyesight
is amazing, able to see things in the thickest darkness
that exist nowhere. Sarah is not a normal human being!

Second, having announced that she saw Death Panels,
she declared that her opposition to killing kids and grandparents
resulted in Congress removing the non-existent Death Panels
from where they had never been. That is some power
she has there! But, then, Sarah is used to miracles like that.
After all, she has personally seen her pastor in Wasilla
cast the most terrifying demons out of witch-women!

It is sobering, is it not, to recognize that witches most often
inhabit women, and that it takes a good man to drive them out?
Anyway, Sarah is just about on par: about a miracle a week.

Next week she is going to bring the whole Republican Party
back to its senses. You can see it coming from her front porch.
Then Jesus will come, again, I suppose. What is there to wait for?

Friends-- My step-father of 35 years died this morning. His name was Conrad Royksund. He was 86 years old. He was born into poverty on a farm near Puyallup, WA. He was the first member of his family to attend college and earned a PhD from the University of Chicago. He paid his way through all of that by fishing in Alaska. He spent his professional career as a college professor. I met him when I was just 3 years old and don't actually have any memories of my life befor e he was in it. He was intimidatingly smart, funny as hell, and worked his ass off. He taught me to meet people with kindness and decency until I was certain they could not be trusted. He taught me to meet ideas with carving knives until I was certain they could. I will remember him as one of the bravest, most curious, and funniest people I have ever met. He left this world with a satisfied mind. We are so grateful. Dan Hubbard

The Sea is Rising

Let us just step back: two hundred and fifty years ago, or so, the ships of England and Spain had drifted onto a whole new continent, as they saw it, from far north to a savagely cold south; pole to pole, as if there were such things. Millions of people already lived here, some of them still hunters and gatherers; some of them very wealthy, indeed! Gold and silver stolen from the southern Americas funded Spanish and English dreams. There was land, lots of land, under starry skies above, rich land, and oil and coal and iron ore. The whole western world learned how to build industries not on simple muscle power, but on steam and oil. We farmed, too, of course. All we needed was cheap labor--slave labor from Africa, mostly, so the ships came with slave labor. Chinese labor built railroad beds where there had been rock cliffs. Europeans, long used to killing each other for good, religious reasons, brought their religious savagery with them. ...

At the Last Game of Year 2017"

Just like in the Bigger Leagues: No balls and five strikes. Add caption "I suppose he had something in mind." "Lift it! Lift your foot one inch!" "Gotta go, gotta go, gotta go!" Faster than a speeding ball In the Hearts of His Countrymen There are body-parts that wear out, and mind-games that go, but Jerry's spirit is indominable.
