Rep. Maxine Waters offers a perfect description of our clearly mentally unstable, morally bankrupt president.

"What we're all doing resisting this lowdown, dirty, no-good, filthy president of the United States of America," Waters said.

A huckster for a party led by a huckster. Makes sense.

Born in Israel. Moved to NYC then California. Became the "ShamWow" guy. Beat up a sex worker. Got sued by his assistant for allegedly stalking, abusing, and groping her. Now he's running for Congress in Texas.

Saw "Devil's Doorway". Surprisingly, for Hollywood, pessimistic story of Native American racism. The film bombed at the box office perhaps because of it's unflinching perspective. Director Anthony Mann & cinematographer John Alton are outstanding.

Hey Mike!
How much do you charge to haunt a house?
Cheaper than haunting Ward 10?

Lockhart was a political liberal and a lifelong ally of the LGBTQ+ community.
Lockhart liked rock music and listened to emerging rock bands. Bill Mumy said she took Angela Cartwright and him to the Whisky a Go Go to hang out with The Allman Brothers Band.

Pity the nation whose leaders are liars whose sages are silenced & whose bigots haunt the airwaves Pity the nation that praises conquerors and acclaims the bully as hero Pity the people who allow their freedoms to erode & their rights to be washed away My country tears of thee Sweet land of liberty

"Huck of Our Town Books in Jacksonville, Ill. what he's doing. He already made himself famous," the bookseller cat "that owns a business in downtown Jacksonville. While he serves no actual employee function such as stocking shelves or checking out customers, he does serve a purpose--his own.... "

During my bookselling sojourn I lived in or near several college towns.
The best by far was Champaign, Illinois.
So good Fightin' Illini!
