I was correct. in A small but passable life.

Continuing with the Updike.

Paused enough yesterday to note:

32 degrees here, 71 degrees there, at 2:42pm.

And about the same today.

And I was correct in my word choice awhile back. On Southpark the writers seem fond of the moniker of “Dumbass” for the president elect.

A new twist to the ongoing shitstorm. Apparently the search for a “celebrity” to make a career killing appearance at the inaugural ball is getting desperate. So far the maybes are Kid Rock, Ted Nugent and Garth Brooks.

Somehow it is satisfying to know that this is going to get so much worse and there is no chance anything good will be happening for a very long time. A perverse satisfaction knowing that the republicans will be toast along with everyone else.

The republican game plan of ending all government social programs and benefits and privatizing all government business is well on its way to fruition.

But so far everything looks the same outside this window.
