1.) There have been nights I am so anxiously terrified Trump might win that I can’t sleep at all. This is one of them.

2.) So many social networks become He-Man characters with the addition of a single letter “o”. Tumblor. Grindor. Etc.

4.) I like Norse mythology because the most heroic thing to do is to delay the end of days, kick that can down another generation again & again.

5.) The Nobel Peace Prize is even more important when it is awarded to people who tried to make peace but were undermined. We must keep trying.

6.) Somewhere, Joe The Plumber is hovering toward Ken Bone in a cloak and a scythe, looking to ferry him home to the Momentary Fame Afterlife.
