Monday. Today is going to be a rain day. A big storm is heading our way. Really Big. In the southern US there will be high winds. For us up here in Central PA, they're predicting rain. Hopefully we'll get buckets. As I've said before, my lawn is brown and that normally happens in July and August.
I also work today. I worked yesterday. Flooring was slow. Our Garden department is still busy, so was our paint department, but the rest of the store was slow. Sadly, we were the only store in the district that was making plan. This is the curse of Jack Welch, who decided corporate profit came before everything else. No one realized how badly he was breaking the system. I don't doubt that at some point the world's economy will collapse thanks to Jack's approach to greed. This is going to be a terrible case of live and learn, that's if we learn anything.
Tomorrow morning I'm heading down to the Lebanon VA for a CAT scan. At one point in my life I used to smoke. Well, I quit that habit a long time ago, however, foolishly I never marked down the year I quit; I think it was around 17 years ago. Anyway, medically, they like to do CAT scans on your lungs yearly for at least 15 years after you quit to insure nothing's happening. Since I can't remember the actual year, my doctor recommends I have one this year, and next year, just to be on the safe side. Honestly, with all of the cardio I do, I think my lungs must be in pretty good shape.
And, of course, tomorrow is T Day. I understand the Orange Anus will be arriving there today. His girl Eileen will be presiding for the present. There are a lot of calls for her to recuse herself. That's probably not going to happen. She's going to end up humiliating herself again. This is part of her role in playing the loyalist. She will lower her head for the executioners blade again... and again... and again.
According to Newsweek, only 50% of Americans hare happy for the indictments. Who makes up that dissenting 50%? Well, Republicans make up about 30%, and the other % is composed of independents, and non-thinkers, and foreign agents (I just made that up, foreign agents probably only represent about 12%). Why such a high % opposing the indictments? Well, for one thing I believe the "Shut up, We're in Charge" party realizes the hammer is really going to come down hard this time. Whereas Clinton was helped when they impeached him for peccadillo, this is far, far worse. And the indictments haven't stopped. There are more on the way. How will they effect that 50%? In ways they cannot even begin to comprehend. They will still vote, but not nearly in the numbers they will need to win seats in the House and Senate. Not that they will vote against the Republican party. Nope, they're just going to sit out an election or two... or possibly 3. Trump will continue to break the party apart. Don't hold your breath expecting him to change anytime soon.
