on researching Jamie Farr, that he regularly donates to the RNC.
So: With a fresh face (and potentially a female face) in the Big Race, maybe we should adopt him as our new symbol:

Bitter Klingers for Female VP’s!! I’d dress in drag if it helped.
Even if it didn’t.
Yeah, maybe tmi.
This is a hot broad, Miss Alaska runner up, Life NRA member, hunter, fisher(wo)man, reformer, constructionis, second amendment absolutist, mother of FIVE, including a downs syndrome child, who she KNEW was downs syndrome and delivered ANYWAY, my good lord I love this woman. A woman who has had fish slime on her hands, who has broken fingers fishing, eats moose meat, lives in the most forbidding place in North America, and wants to DRILL FOR OIL.
Whooo farging hoo.
I am sooo srsly in love. Lord please let the rest of America be as well.

We left the garage door open sunday evening later than normal, (we tend to keep it closed- a lot of tools, you understand) and we got a visitor. he manifested himself early monday, not by his presence but his actions- we found stiff from shelves knocked all over the garage floor.
I thought maybe we had a raccoon, but I should have known it was a ‘possum, coons are much more energetic animals. Anyway, I borrowed a live trap and with the help of a healthy dollop of peanut butter, had him out of the garage first thing in the AM.
Let him loose in the backyard, the daughter was impressed at the speed at which he took off up a tree.
I won’t eat a possum- or, for that matter, a raccoon, but I don’t wish any harm of the critters. And I won’t shoot ’em unless they’re damaging something. He’s free now, and I’m happy for him, mostly happy to have him out of my basement.
