 I received a couple of inquiries this week asking whether I was alive or had been indicted in the "insurrection" event. Sorry, I have actually been busy. Then, the recent ice storm left our property littered with fallen trees. I have been doing my Paul Bunyan impression without Babe, the Blue Ox, available to help me. 

Today's news tells us that Jim Acosta of CNN was "accosted" by conservatives at CPAC in Florida. According to the news sources, Acosta was greeted by a crowd chanting "CNN sucks". I would be willing to bet that Acosta does as well. I just can't believe that CNN sent Acosta to CPAC. I guess Don Lemon was having his period and couldn't go.

The Democrats are all attacking Joe Manchin. They are criticizing the man whose vote they need to pass almost anything.  Maybe the GOP could trade Romney or Murkowski for Manchin. 

There is a growing theory that Rachel Levine is somehow a reincarnation of Phil Silvers who has come back as almost a woman wannabe.

Roy Cooper, who is now claiming that kids need to be in school, just vetoed a bill that mandates that exact event. I am going to go time traveling again and give Dr. Kevorkian Cooper's name and address.

Roy Cooper is  working on his 2022 campaign for the US Senate. He thinks that we will all have forgotten about the lockdowns by next year. It has been a long time since someone made Richard Burr look good.

Democrats are complaining that Biden's "nominees of color" aren't being treated fairly by Republican Senators. This from the 41 Democrats who voted against Ben Carson when Trump nominated him.

Democrats are causing those who edit dictionaries to redefine "Hypocrites".

Tiger Woods will be heading off to some type of rehab after his latest experience with an automobile. One of his friends or advisers needs to convince him to stop driving motor vehicles. Why doesn't he just hire a driver?  Somebody needs to explain UBER to him.

There has been talk for years in North Carolina Republican circles about Richard Burr running for Governor. That talk ended when Burr voted to convict Trump. Burr will just go ahead and remain in Washington after his term ends. You read it here first.

I have met Richard Burr several times over the years. He was our Congressman off and on due to redistricting. Richard went to Washington and joined "The Swamp". Richard Burr is the cautionary tale for those who aspire to leadership positions in Washington. He went to Washington as a good guy and became a dirtbag. Richard Burr is a walking case for term limits. 

Let's end Congressional pensions and put them all on Social Security. Same thing for those in the other two branches of government.

The Washington Redskins have still not announced their new team name. I am hoping that they go with, (drum roll here), the Washington Foreskins. First, they can keep the 'Skins name. The "Foreskins" will also represent a city filled with pricks and dickheads. Not to mention it gives, "They are going deep!" a whole new meaning. Buy those jerseys and hats now!!
