Winter seems to have hit our area hard and suddenly. Holy shit it was only 93 degrees today, so a blizzard was a distinct possibility. Not that this would keep me away from my weekend Links duty, one of the funnest things to do.

Speaking of fun, there’s birthdays to celebrate including a guy who was admittedly a bit bugs; one of the most fun of the bluesmen; a guy who was admittedly a bit bats; an absolutely brilliant cartoonist and auteur; the once and former dimmest bulb in Congress, a difficult feat; and a guy whose best role ever was in The Big Chill.

Now news.

 

A few more Californians and it’s done.

 

Definitely not antisemitic.

 

Tough negotiator.

 

Rich people with lawyers and nothing to do. Hijinx ensue.

 

“It’s no big deal. Really!”

 

I really have hope when I see politicians working so hard to destroy any shreds of respect for government.

 

Old Guy Music is a guaranteed hate for you kids, but kinda encapsulates how I’m feeling. Great playing, with a sheep singing lead.
