AWAKE!

Lawse, yes, I'm awake!

M-O-O-N, that spells "awake"!

No dreams worthy of mention.

Lots of sleep, sleep, sleep!

Someone on Threads, this morning, lost her mind over Morning Joe doing an extended segment on Joe Biden's age and how it is being discussed daily by both parties.

Thank goodness, this lady said, she found another newscaster who didn't mention Biden's age.

What she totally missed in all the age discussion was the repeated references to Trump's malignant narcissism and his ongoing mental incompetence. Morning Joe was using the absence of mental acuity in all that Trump says to contrast with the arguments about steady Joe Biden's age.

Regardless of that age, and an occasional misspeak, nobody has gotten as much done in the oval office as Biden since Bill Clinton's presidency.

And another news item caught my attention: While Kevin McCarthy has launched a baseless investigation into whether to impeach Biden over nothing he's done, it seems McCarthy's brother-in-law has perpetrated a $7.2 million scam by falsely claiming to be partly Native American in his business dealings.

I'm sitting here reading some things, and though I'd totally forgotten the first of my two main dreams early this morning, three distinct fragments have individually popped into my head within the past hour.

One was being back in California and exclaiming to whoever I was with that the smell of California air is the very best. (Location indistinct, but we weren't in the middle of a city...not that that would necessarily have to be a deal breaker.) Another, also in the Golden State, was being driven down a sloping street in San Pedro toward what I guess would be Point Fermin and kind of a sandy and rocky dead end. The third was some musical rehearsal type of setting in which we (whoever "we" was) were listening and following a score and sort of singing along now and then with a recording of...whatever the thing was.

Lawse, is there still more to come??

Bruce, how much of your high gas prices is due to gouging vs higher state taxes on gas?

All the time I lived in California, the news always said prices were higher because of state emission controls that required oil companies to process gasoline in a more expensive manner.

Jane · « **Reply #56 on:** September 18, 2023, 12:00:41 PM »

I am interested in the response the governor send Bruce explaining why prices are so high.

bk · « **Reply #57 on:** September 18, 2023, 12:25:53 PM »

Yes, taxes are part of it. But gouging is going on and has been since the pandemic ended - trying to make back all they lost when no one was driving. It's outrageous.

bk · « **Reply #58 on:** September 18, 2023, 12:26:05 PM »

I'm up, I'm up - maybe four hours of sleep.
