Bluntness

I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

Shame, Shame, Shame

 Holy Crap!  Am I running late today, or what?  Blame it on the great sleeping weather we had last night!  Even at this late hour our outside temp has barely cracked the 60 (F) mark.  We have a slight breeze and much sunshine.  I do believe the time has come to start prepping for autumn.

Yesterday was a good day, though not because Xerox dropped the ball on my new printer, and they really did drop the ball.  

My laptop, my TV, and my Xbox Series X?  They're all connected to the router upstairs.  No problem.  The new printer was connecting, so I started a chat with a Xerox tech who was going by the name Janice, though, going by the dropped words and bad punctuation I suspected she(?) was not an American Janice, or a British Janice, or even a Canadian Janice.  When Janice failed to come up with a solution, she (?) suggested escalating my issue by putting in a ticket for another team to respond.  She asked for, and I gave her, a specific time for them to call.   Well, that never happened.  I do believe one of the big problems with people nowadays is that they desperately feel that someone else needs to solve their problems, that puts the blame on someone else.  Not me.  When I signed up for T-Mobile internet, I got the big router which is up stairs, and a smaller one that I can locate downstairs if I need it.  So, I looked at this little router.  Lo and behold, it has 2 ethernet jacks.  Wow, I can connect my printer to the router with an ethernet cable.  It needs a Cat 5, I have a Cat 6 on hand, because I'm a nerdy, geeky guy.  Serious, 5 minutes later my printer is connected to the internet and I'm printing off the first 13 chapter of The Body in 4/4 Time. If Xerox asks me to review their support they will get a nicely worded reality check.  

And then yesterday this also happened.


This is a landslide win by a Democrat in a very red, Trump Orange Anus district.  Oh, and Susie Collins from Maine is super concerned because she was loudly booed at a ribbon cutting ceremony.  "Shame, Shame, Shame," the crowd chided her and all the while Susie kept on smiling.  That woman will never understand how badly she has sold out her constituents just to be a member of the Republican Party.

And Orangie had a 3 + hour televised cabinet meeting yesterday during which his sycophantic cabinet members constantly debased themselves in order to kiss his ass.  Rolling Stone listed the details of how these sniveling losers groveled before him.  I began to read the article and then stopped, unable to stomach what Rolling Stone called phony praise.

Also, the Secretary of Transportation said the administration is going to take over Union Station.  I'm betting that's because when Just Dancing Vance was booed so badly, even called Couch Fucker, when he walked through it the other day.  That's how this administration works, in case you haven't figure that out by now.
