  1. Who, Hagar? The nuts they gather up to show you talking on FOX News?Hillary Clinton conceded to trump the day after the election. The Russian angle was to try and influence the electorate with their troll farm operation. No Democrat of substance suspected Russians of voting or manipulating results. As far as record voting, I figure we can thank social media for firing both sides up. There is no physical way that many votes could be created from thin air. Our election system has a very good system of checks that make wide scale illegal voting impossible. I do think a return to paper ballots offers the best way to back up election integrity.
  2. [Hidden Content] Remember this thought exercise when chasing conspiratorial fantasies. The basic tenet has only been in use since Aristotle’s time.
  3. What’s next? Call in The Carter Center? The United Nations Electoral Assistance division? Maybe file a lawsuit in The Hague alleging election fraud against humanity? When your last bet shot is Ken Paxton, and he gets a one page dismissal with no dissent from trump’s packed court, it’s game over, people. Acceptance is the better part of valor.
  4. You’re considering only who earns, not who owns. What percent of the national wealth do the 50% have to share? What percent does the 10% at the top own? Who has access to capital to fund entrepreneurial enterprises? We can debate the fairness, but not the skew.
  5. Color is not important, unless it’s running down the side of your face.
  6. The dustbin of history awaits the terse one line denial of this suit by the Supremes just like the Pennsylvania suit. It’s over. He lost. Now he needs to get lost. Cheats can’t stand to lose fair and square. If you want eastern European style elections, move to Eastern Europe.
  7. Did they disband without finding anything? Yes. Is that fake? No.
  8. If you’ll recall, trump appointed a Voter Integrity Commission soon after he was elected. It was disbanded after finding nothing indicating widespread election fraud. His own commission. Which he appointed. Zero, zip, nada. It’s kind of cultish to believe that the truth lies with only one person. Especially when all evidence indicates otherwise.
  9. Sold most of ‘em cheap, I’ve heard. Just trying to make a buck in Nashville.
  10. That’s because it’s called a fact.
  11. Jorma Kaukonen, lead guitar for Jefferson Airplane and cofounder of Hot Tuna with Airplane bassist Jack Casady, has been live-streaming almost every Saturday at 7:00 on YouTube from his place in Ohio. Mostly him on acoustic playing for about an hour and a half. Jack came out and did a few acoustic shows with him. A couple weeks back they got together in Ohio and got their drummer in and recorded an electric show that’s airing tomorrow night. If you want to see a couple of old dudes who can still lay down some power trio blues, tune in and check it out. Search “Fur Peace Ranch” on YouTube. Should be listed as Quarantine Concert #28. Geezers rock!!!
  12. An engineer died and went to Hell. When he got there, he looked around and said “Man, this place needs fixing up. Mind if I do a little work on it, Satan?” Satan said, “sure”, and the engineer went to work. First, he installed a big AC system. Next, he built a waterworks system. Ice cold water fountains everywhere. He’d started on a sewerage plant when God looked down and saw all the work he was doing. He decided Heaven could use a little sprucing up and got to thinking maybe he’d sent the guy to the wrong place. He told Satan, “Look, this engineer got sent to the wrong place. Send him up here. Satan said, “No, he works for me. You can’t have him.” God said, “What do you mean, No? I am omnipotent. You can’t refuse me!” The Devil said, “I’m not letting go of him” God replied, “Fine. I’ll sue you and we’ll see who wins. Satan chuckled as he said, “Where you gonna find a lawyer?”
  13. Would that be Little Johnny F. F.?
  14. I saw him at the Armadillo World Headquarters less than a year before he passed.
  15. The Redman’s. Dang, that one had slipped into the recesses of my memory. Freddie died in 1976, around 45 yrs old. Some say cancer, I had remembered it as bleeding ulcers brought on by poor diet and stress of the road. The guy could sure play.
  16. All media exists to make money, and will bias toward their market. Journalistic integrity is something altogether different.
  17. Leon Russell produced Freddie’s last album, Texas Cannonball on the Shelter label.
  18. Yep, the three kings - BB, Freddie, and Albert.
