I just used the phrase "I blame it on the Bossa Nova" in my work group chat. The response was deafening. Crickets.

They're also, most of them, a lot younger than I.

I have a fig tree in the backyard. When to pick the figs, I wonder.

DR John should be able to answer your question.

They don’t ripen after you pick them, so you may need netting to keep them from the birds.

Read another 100 pages in Nana this morning. Loving it. And I like this modern translation. Nana’s trips to the lesbian bar are quite fascinating.

I don’t think my early translation would be as explicit. But I could be wrong. The most graphic part of Germinal, a castration of the bad guy, was in both.

Almost time for me to go.

Went to post office early and waited quite a while for a lady who arrived early with a ton of things to mail.

Lately, that's the story of my post office travels.  Every day, I have a package to pick up but wait 5-10 minutes to get it because there is one, and only one, postal clerk.

For a small town, we have a lot of mail going through our small post office.

Do you not feel comfortable having the package delivered to your house?

Woudld prefer it, but not always given the choice.

Had a great day with Debra!

For lunch:  Green beans, creamed corn, barbecue (mustard), barbecue (smoked), barbecue (hickory), fried chicken breast and a chicken fried pork chop.

I was stuffed.  Still am.  No room then, or now, for dessert.

Trump is the first former president in U.S. history to face federal charges.

The Justice Department took the legally and politically momentous step of lodging federal criminal charges against former President Donald J. Trump, multiple people familiar with the matter said on Thursday, following a lengthy investigation of his handling of classified documents that he took with him upon leaving office and then obstructing the government’s efforts to reclaim them.

Nixon would have been the first, but he was smart enough to resign and then be pardoned for everything. And the DOJ would never have done this if they didn't have the goods. The real shocker is that not only can he continue running for president (and he's already gleefully fleecing his base again for contributions), he can continue running if he's found guilty. There is something very wrong with this country if someone is found guilty of criminal behavior and can still run for the highest office in the country.
