Yes, decades ago when touch-screen technology was new, I thought it was wasn’t for me because the first few times I tried to use on-screen keyboards, fat-fingering syndrome took over. I would clumsily hit several surrounding letters or numbers instead of just the one I wanted. it made me think that it was really made for people who have small, dainty fingertips, and meh, besides, it was probably just a passing fancy, a fad, and even though it wouldn’t last very long, I didn’t need it anyway. I could just put down the electronics and instead pick up a piece of 8.5x11 paper, put it in the Smith-Corona typewriter and hack away at the physical keys to my heart’s content. less

There were quite a few people out there, but no one was speaking. It was as though we were all seeking solitude so we could gather our thoughts in an attempt to process the enormity of what occurred the day before. All I kept wondering was how could such a devastating thing happen on a cloudless day with a bright blue sky - one of the most exquisite days of the year. less

The bad blood between us started when I was taking a up grade course at a community collage. The wanna be vampire got butt hurt because I started getting better marks than him in math class. So he started flying around town spreading false rumors about me. After I heard what he was doing I started following him around town well chanting vampire vampire vampire. After a few minutes he would turn around and glare at me and I would say - bite me vampire. Then he would turn around and keep walking and I would follow him and do the vampire chant until he turned around and I would say bite me vampire. After about 5X he turned around and put his fists up so I made a fist and pumped up the vain in my forearm - pointed to it and said - B Positive vampire come and get some. I didn't really have B Positive blood I just wanted him to attack me but thought it would be fair to let him know that he better... less

And he added that it was a deep ugly search and the agents left everything they touched in far different condition than it was when they started. I don't think they searched Barron's room because it wasn't one of the 3 rooms that the search warrant gave permission to search. And I think it is strange that he didn't mention it a mouth ago when he said the FBI search his wife's room. So I think he is just trying to discredit the search. Anyway if they did search his room it is likely that they found a couple nudie magazines in between the box spring and the mattresses because he is a 16 year old boy. That's were I kept my nudie mags when I was a teen but back then the only nudes were in National Geographic magazines. Cheers! less

For instance, we went out to dinner with an elderly relative who later that evening remarked that there were no condiments on the table, why wasn’t there an option for unsweetened ice tea in addition to sweetened, the air conditioning made the food cold. I asked, “Why didn’t you say anything about those things at the time?” The answer was, “Oh, I never do that, I don’t want to bother anyone. Maybe they were busy.” (Grrrrrrr.)

I don't think they should be pardoned or deserve an apology but Trump does. Maybe one of his pardons will be something like this - I pardon you and apologise for them cleaning up the poop you smeared on the walls of the Capital. You Sir are an artist and your art should of been left on the wall so that people will always remember the glorious day Jan. 6th. Cheers!
