Down here in my rural illinois town

I wake every morning to the low drone of semis on the interstate. The hotel has a fence but it doesn’t make the noise go away.

there’s a lot to be done here but I have only so much energy to do it. The situation is getting a bit frustrating to say the least, and potentially troublesome. Ah well, I’ve been in sticky shit before, and will be again, this is nothing new. Having people harrass me personallly for the job I’m doing is nothing new and frankly, I’m bored stiff with it.

Just wish i could be somewhere more productive.

Dick is OK, he’s just dealing with personal issues and buried in work. His son, on the other hand, has just joined the USN.

All of which means Obamacare stays, spending will still be out of control, etc.

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

I looked at all the libertarian candidates, but I haven’t smoked enough dope in my lifetime to make any of them attractive except as “not A or B”. After I voted I dropped the daughter off at school. She asked, “What are libertarians?” After explaining as best as I could, trying very hard not to give her any prejudices where non exist yet, she said ‘No. If Republicans are Elephants and Democrats are jackasses (her words) what are libertarians? Ostriches?” She meant it to be funny, but she had NO IDEA.

So all day I’v e been thinking of the Libertarian symbol as an Ostrich, perhaps with a cannabis leaf instead of a stinkstar for an asshole.
