The Iranian TACO

Well temps are in the 40s (F) and we're going to end up somewhere in the mid 50s (F).  We're going to have mostly sunny skies, too, which is what I call a decent spring day.  Tomorrow we'll get warmer, but we'll also have a much greater chance of rain showers.  That's okay.  This is Spring.  We are in a transition period between the bitter cold of winter and the stanky hotness of summer.  This is a season we should enjoy.

Yesterday was productive.  Lots of little chores, the ones I am constantly putting off were scratched off the list of "things to do."  I'm pleased with that.  I got a decent ride in on the Isle of Corsica.  My trainer's happy.  If I get the strength workout done today, it will have been 5 consecutive days of working out. Last time the routines were broken up:  3 days on and 1 day off, 2 days on and 1 day off.  Honestly, 5 days in a row is easily doable. 

A retail workout is on the schedule for today.  I'm getting an increase in pay, though I don't know how much.  Last year they called me back two days before payday and gave me a little slip of paper indicating how much of a raise I was getting.  Rumor has it that these raises will not be processed until April, if that's the case, then every employee is working 13 months at the same rate of pay.  This wouldn't surprise me.  That would help cut back on the payroll expense for this fiscal year and expenses are a very high priority for corporate America.

Someone had a busy day yesterday.

I'm hearing that the Orange Anus would like to TACO us out the war with Iran that he started.  Some one should tell that idiot that wars don't end that simply.  Still, at the same time we are being told that American troops will soon be on Iranian soil, that's if they can make it through the troop carrying ships can make it through the Strait of Hormuz.  This is what happens when you put a dementiated old man in the White House.  

And in and desperate attempt to keep gas prices from going through the roof, oil sanctions have been dropped against some of Iran's oil.  Yep, nothing spells out stupidity like trying to buy the oil and gas from the country you're at war with.  Unfortunately, Iran seems to have the upper hand here.  It's not just stupidity, it glaring incompetence.  And people are growing more and more furious at Orangies fratboy drunk trying to run the Department of Defense from a pulpit.  Telling people they should be down on bended knees praying to God to help our troops?  Someone needs to tell Bourbon Breath that prayer has never, ever worked.

And did you hear about he FEMA director who rolled his car into a ditch and found himself teleported to a waffle house a few hours later.  This is also called driving blind drunk.
