I've noticed a general malaise as of late

In case you hadn't noticed [or cared], I haven't posted anything in over a week. Not that that's anything earth shattering, but I have noticed that many of the other blogs I occasionally read (seemingly less and less as time goes by), haven't been posting for an even longer time.

One of my favorite bloggers, and fellow MCL'er, Susan C hasn't posted in over two weeks, and it's been over three weeks since she posted on her other blog, Open Mouth, Insert Fork. Even Becky hasn't posted since 9/27, and I've never known her to be at a loss for words.

Plus there are others who have been just as lacks, which I won't even mention. [If you're interested you can click on the links to the right to see what I'm talking about.]

weatherNow I don't know about the others, but as for me, I just don't seem to have the desire to post that much any more. I know I'm posting something today, but that doesn't mean much. It's just too damn freakin' hot outside (the perils of living in SoCal) to do much of anything else. Sitting in the house with the A/C on is much more preferable.

Maybe it's the just weather, and the fact I hate this time of year, but blogging is difficult. Trying to constantly come up with something interesting [even not interesting sometimes] or informative to write about can be pretty stressful, and I hate writing about all the unpleasant things I could write about. So instead I'd prefer to just not write anything, and let everyone guess what may or may not be going on.

Besides, I've been doing this for almost 4 years now, which if you perused other similar blogs [which I have], you will notice is well beyond the norm.

But still I go on. I only wish I knew why. :)

Well, I was getting worried about you. I did notice. If you didn't write something in the next few days I was going to email you to see what's going on.

Some of us are interested in what you say, even if some of it is over the top.

I always check it out, your views on politics and life are always interesting. Plus I like it when you talk about cycling, which I also noticied you have been absent of latley or we have been going different directions?
When am I going to get some more Obama-Bucks?
My grandkids are starting to put away their allowance to help him pay for it...............

Yeah I'll bet you were Alan. :)

And Gerry it's you that has been absent. Did you forget your motorcycle adventure last weekend. And where were you yesterday? We missed you! Still I haven't been that interested in riding lately (been going to the gym more), especially riding hard. We'll see how today goes.

History IS repeating itself

I didn't grow up during the rise and fall of Hitler and Nazi Germany, so for me to claim it feels like those are the times we are living in now, must be taken with a grain of salt. But I have seen enough movies, and read enough history to know, if the times we're living in now are not akin to the rise of a Nazism and Facism in Europe in the 1930's and 1940's, then we're not far off. If you can't see the parallels with Nazi Germany, then you must be living in a different country than me. Republicans and other right wing extremists will stop at nothing to subvert the will of the majority, forcing their beliefs, that they are the superior race and have been appointed by God, to impose their will on America, while they blame all our problems on immigrants, blacks and Jews. As I speak, Mitch McConnell, and his minions are raising roadblocks to all legislation designed to help average Americans under the guise of fiscal responsibility. They condone violent and verba...

Open letter to all Democrats

Stop the nonsense! Continuing to go after Trump, without any hope of getting a conviction, does nothing more than provide Republicans with an obstructionist dialogue (now that they have come up with the unconstitutional talking point) in addition to giving Trump much needed publicity, when we should be ignoring him. It's the pure definition of insanity, doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting a different result! Instead Democrats need to be laser focused on what is important to all Americans, i.e. healthcare, Social Security and Medicare, infrastructure reform, the Covid-19 vaccine rollout, to name just a few. And when you do talk about Trump, simply steer the conversation as to how the Trump administration botched everything, how Trump is responsible for the deaths of 400,000+ Americans, due to his inaction and the down playing of the pandemic, plus the deaths of 2 Capitol policeman during the insurrection Trump provoked and incited on January 6, 2021. ...

Stop the stupidity!

Rural medical center (in Georgia) suspended from vaccination program after inoculating school district staff. Give me a break! Trying to get kids back to school, while protecting teachers, bus drivers and other staff, is exactly what school districts should be doing. If they have vaccines, give them out. We should be giving out vaccines to all who want them, whenever available. Trying to adhere to rigid guidelines will only result in fewer people getting vaccines, resulting in the discarding of precious vaccines, and less protection for everyone. Of course we should be giving first priority to healthcare workers, and any other essential public service employees, such as policeman, fireman, etc. first, but when they're not around to receive shots, or refuse shots, then give them to anyone willing to take them. What I would have objected to is the medical center trying to capitalize on the pandemic to make a profit, from giving vaccines to people far down the list of recipients, but ...
