19. It's a righteous rant you have there.

At 77, not looking forward to three more years of this insane shit. Remember when we were foolish enough to think it couldn't get any worse than Nixon/Agnew?

Fighting depression, arthritis, and an extremely tight budget, the GOP is not helping my retirement and mood. That's not how politics is supposed to work. I'm finding some peace in music, my flower garden and repairing anything that's broken for friends and family.

Thank you for your service in 'Nam..... I barely missed being drafted by virtue of the lottery in '69 but many of my class of '65 classmates were not so lucky. I hope the VA is treating you OK.

Love your story about your grandson. Just got to witness my granddaughter's HS graduation with great joy but I worry about what her future will hold, even with her excellent grades.

Peace!........
