There and back again

After a blissful few days of golf with some friends in warmer climes, it's back to reality in the frozen north!   I had hoped, apparently in vain, the present administration would show some signs of maturity in the interim.   Further scandals involving a wife beater with access to classified information and the lies propagated to insulate said abuser are just the latest confirmation that tRump and his minions just don't care about truth, justice and the American way.  As comic relief we also had the *president's personal lawyer claiming he paid $130,000 out of his own pocket to a porn star who credibly claimed she had an affair with Cheeto Jesus.  Believe that and the market for used bridges is definitely on the upswing.  It would be funny if it wasn't also terrifying.
