Morning Peeps,
CHECKING TODAY'S NAZI METER
Joe Conason on rising Nazism in GOP...
Trump may be the most reliable ally of the far right in Israel, but he is a growing danger to American Jews.
Sinister because the MAGA movement that Trump has spawned is crawling with neo-Nazis, white nationalists and antisemites who are already primed to spread hatred of Jews and other forms of racism.

COURTS REAFFIRM ACCEPTABLE STANDARDS
ON this date in 1998 - After consulting w/ his attorneys Bun Man and Mr. P, Pres Clinton videotaped his grand jury statement concerning the Monica Lewinsky case which was made public on this date.
A new legal definition for sex was produced wherein a male had to be thinking of only the woman he was with during the entire sex act for it to be considered sex.
This was later struck down by appellate court as an unreasonable and unachievable standard.

IMO, I agree, I think US citizens have just gone underground...
Threat of violence tends to do that to peeps
THE PARTY OF THE PROUD UNWILLING LED BY THE PROUD UNKNOWING
But it was comical to watch the foibles of Lt Tragg; the shock of DA Burger; the digging of Paul Burke; and the cunning of Raymond Burr.
But what got us to come back was the lovely Della Street played by Barbara Hale who was tired of doing B grade war movies.
Loved that show...
2/2
ON this date in 1957 - "Perry Mason", the television series, made its debut on CBS-TV.
The show was on for 9 years. Bun Man, Mr. Purple and I would religiously watch this series for all 9 years.
The show's formula was always the same.

RETURN TO ME...Hurry Home, Hurry Home, Hurry Home to me
ON this date in 2014...Bun, P and I sitting in and watching one of our fave movies Return To Me...
Rat Pack soundtrack and great love story...
One of the greatest lines..."Don't shave your legs, hairy legs are your only link to reality..."
Bowser: Don't you feel it growing, day by day, people getting ready for the news, some are happy, some are sad, oh, we got to let the music play
Cuddles: What the people need is a way to make 'em smile, it ain't so hard to do if you know how, gotta get a message, get it on through, oh now mama, don't you ask me why
Chorus: Whoa listen to the music, whoa listen to the music, whoa listen to the music, all the time
(Homage to Doobie Brothers)
Paraphrasing Robert A. Heinlein...
DEBTORS IN A DEBTORS' WORLD
I would respectfully add one thing here.
IMO, we should not refer to T returning to the WH as a presidency; it will be a dictatorship.
MARKETING TO MAGAts...
We've reached the point where double confirmation is the norm.
Morning Peeps,
About yesterday...
Apparently, I was supposed to be working for another 'Joe' yesterday, and I didn't remember that I was until after I was finished my hour-long bike ride. So, after saying WTF, I went home, showered, and then scurried on to work. I did work an hour over so I could help out a little more.
Sheesh, I thought I was over work crises.
“Human sacrifice! Dogs and cats living together! Mass hysteria!”
GHOSTBUSTERS will help us out
Nope, Nope, not going to the Everglades...

ON THE EVE OF #CATURDAY
So, what's up with your lame-ass kitty?
Cats that fetch are more common than you might think. New study finds 41% of felines retrieve

Doing well, going on a bike ride this AM and then the Mikster and I are doing a garden tour to give us more ideas on our xeriscaping...
