The Book of Lunatic

It is all over, friends! It is all over!

Gods is backing Sharron Angle for Senator from Nevada.

Ralph Reed interviewed her.
You remember Ralph.
Time magazine called him, the "right hand of God".
The Right Hand of God asked The Angle
how she could explain her rise to prominence.
She said it was God's Plan.

"I believe that God has been in this from the beginning
and because of that when he has a plan and a purpose for your life
and you fit into that, what he calls you to he always equipped you for,"
Angle replied.

Just to keep the faithful from falling asleep--
because they know a whole lot, already, about God's Plan,
she added: "the tenet of the separation of church and state
is an unconstitutional doctrine."

It is all over!

How can a normal, decent, God-fearing, snuff-chewing,
Christian woman go into a polling booth knowing that she
is going up against God's Plan From the Beginning,
and cast her vote for Harry Reid? Is there even one woman
in the country, otherwise willing to vote for a Dull Man
with the charisma of a hard-working vote-nerd,
who thinks that she and Harry can beat God and The Angle?

It is not so much Sharron Angle that I am worried about:
it is all those hard-working, eat-at-the-casino minimum-wage voters
who think they can beat God and The Angle at the polls,
when God, and the Voice of God, and the Angle of God
all agree that the Trinity speak with one Tea Bag Voice.

Woe! Woe!

This is a cosmic war, and in cosmic wars
the lunatics get to write the books.

Ah, Harry, I hardly knew yeh!

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.
