Trump's Fraud Line

We're supposed to have sunshine for the rest of the week.  That will be nice after all of the rain that we've had here in Central PA.  Daily highs are predicted to be in the mid 60s (F), with overnight lows in the deep 40s (F).  This will be nice.  I do have some yardwork that needs to be done.

Now that it's cooler outside, I'm planning on getting out the chainsaw again.  There are still branches which need to be cut down to size, and chipping to be done.  The cooler days and nights mean I'm not going to have a gnat problem to deal with; now there's a reason for wearing a long sleeved shirt.

Yesterday, much was accomplished:  cleaning, cleaning, cleaning.  Back when I was a child, I can remember when my mom did both fall and spring cleaning, so I guess this is my fall cleaning.  This is on top of my usual cleaning.  Great forests of Howie hair seem to grow overnight, so I am constantly sweeping them up and tossing them into the trash bin.

I'm back to playing Balder's Gate 3.  Kingdom Come, Deliverance was becoming tedious.  I will probably go back to it at some later point, but right now I need a game that's fast moving.

Here's another shot of my roses I snapped yesterday.

I see the Orange Anus set up some sort of fraud and tip line where whistleblowers can make a lot of money by reporting... fraud.  Knowing that he, himself, is a super fraudster, one can only surmise that this has more to do with voter fraud.  You know what I'm talking about, report your neighbor, make some coin.  This might actually work if he were more closer to be being borderline popular with the American voter, but he's not.  Like every other desperate scheme he's been trying, this will backfire terribly, especially since 99% of all the voter fraud discovered has been by Republicans.

And while this seems odd, we've gone.... what?  Two days without another October Surprise doing some serious bodily damage to the GOP.  We do have 2 weeks to go, so there's plenty of time for another shoe or two to drop.

Orangie also got heckled again last evening at one of his micro-rallies.  Does anybody know if there's some sort of TikTok challenge going on?  You know?  Like... who can create the biggest distraction/disturbance while Orangie's on stage talking about some other Republican man's ass?  Those stories have become part of his schtick.  If it gets him attention, he's going to ramble about it.  Or maybe he's decided that he's got the pussy grabber vote in the bag and now needs to focus on the ass grabber vote.

Reality Bite

Our afternoon high might hit 70(F) today.  That's not bad being that we're almost 2/3 of the way through October. The long the moderate temps hang around, the happier I am with my heating bill.  We have been known to have some very warm winters here in Central PA, where the daily high sits in the mid 40s (F).  During those years we barely get any snow, and while I like the white fluffy stuff, the free cardio I get from shoveling the stuff is not essential to my well being.

Retail was slow yesterday in that flooring sales were not going through the roof.  After 4:30, I was once again an aisle associate masquerading as a flooring specialist.  I had numerous questions from several customers, but none were interested in diving into the installation pool.  They may return.  The average person puts several months of thought into investing in an installation.  This doesn't mean that we don't get customers who are "spur of the  moment, we tend to have problems with them.  Buyers Remorse.  I dealt with one yesterday, a woman who was not satisfied with the installation dates offered by our installers.  We guarantee your flooring will be installed within 45 days or less, however not one single day worked for her.  She also repeated several times that she can go with someone else and have carpeting installed sooner.   This customer changed her mind and was looking for a way to cancel her install and get a refund... she mentioned that several times as well.  We're going to end up eating the cost of that carpet.

And what about Adam Hamilton from Kansas?  He's an ordained elder with the United Methodist Church and he's running for Senator.  Today Orangie's going to take his Satanic presence to Wichita to campaign against him.

I find this very amusing.  For decades Republicans claimed to be the anointed party of Family Values.  It was extremely rare for any Republican to say anything without repeating those those 2 words.  Family Values.  That was before they realized that their core values were more laser focused on selfishness and greed.  Thanks to Citizens United Republicans in Congress discovered that tax breaks for the rich and infamous bought them bigger campaign donations.  Those donations were essential for staying in power, so they damned values all to hell.  They found out that corruption was far more lucrative for them then providing Americans with a decent living wage. They trashed their ability to be compassionate and Democrats are now picking up that helm.

Hopefully there will be attendees at Orangie's small rally who will heckle him.  There were six hecklers at his rally yesterday.  He hates this.  You can see the glint of hatred in his beady, little eyes.  He finds this humiliating, which makes this is a good thing.  And he's not the only one getting heckled.  This bitter sassing is happening to so many of them, and it's pissing them off.  The simply cannot deal with the fact that Americans hare rejecting them en masse.  Reality is biting them in the ass big time.  They truly hate having to harvest the crops that they've sown.
