the week the world stood still

Don't bet me started on the Green New Deal or oil prices right now.  What I see happening is price gouging during a true emergency.  Like we haven't already had a few in the past year!  I believe in the power of natural energy which must, of course, include gas to some degree.  I'm just ready to build an igloo and ride it out.  Wait, I already have one.  

I see more activity down here what with all the neighbors.  Searching for a change of address option I found that it costs 60 bucks to do that.  WTH?  Me and the guy at the car shop had a nice long discussion about socialism v communism.  He was born in Vietnam and his family left because his grandfather was executed for being a lawyer.  You seriously cannot make that shit up.  We discussed the war and how both of us believed that was a big wrong thing.  I brought up Iraq and the lives affected from that big one. Desert Storm.  I don't remember the year but one of my coworkers served there.  Being a soldier in those conditions is tough.  Sometimes it seems that evil will prevail.

But I have hope.  I know from what my Mama taught me and spring is right around the corner, complete with Easter ham and deviled eggs.  

Be safe ~ and blessed ^j^
