Retired, 2X cancer survivor. 7 plus years in remission. All typos are intentional. Deal with it. You know who you are. I call my wife, wifey. Only on social media. Among other things, I refer to the motherfucker as Florida fats. I rarely use his name.

I had tariffs explained to me by a magat earlier today. He said that when tariffs start that prices will drop because China will pay the tariffs. I tried to explain to him using a $20 item that a 20% tariff will add $4 to the cost of the item. His reply was that China will pay it.

Prediction for election day: Democrats will have the biggest victory ever, not only in the House but also in the Senate. There will be lawsuits, and some will reach the Supreme Court. Republicans will lose most, if not all. January 6 was a warm-up for this. Democracy will prevail.

We voted Friday, and while at the check-in, I handed over my license. The person looked at it, scanned it, then asked me what my birth date was. I said it is on the license. He asked me again. Same reply. The third time he asked, I told him. They didn't ask wifey. WTF? Voted blue.

With that logic, let's rename all these state. Not a full list.

Trump should immediately change his name to "The Epstein Files" since his name is in them over 38,000 times.

It's been 10 plus years that he's been trying to make America great. He's been in office six of those 10 years. When will you magats realize he has failed at his main goal?

After last week. It was last week, right? Has anyone heard from Mitch McConnell. Where have you gone, Mitch McConnell? Our nation turns its lonely eyes to you. What's that you say, Elaine Chow? Has the turtle left and gone away?

They just used the "F" word on the local news here in Southern Delaware; no, not that one, they were talking about the foliage in New England.

I saw this meme and thought, at my first job out of college, I made $3.94/hour, yet I was able to move out on my own, pay rent and still have fun with some money left over.

I have an old-school Republican. He hates Florida fats and claims to have never voted for him. This is a text he sent me yesterday: "Trump is in deep trouble... ever MAGA supporters aren't happy." I'm sure he meant even, not ever.

NJ Lieutenant Governor Dale Caldwell resigned yesterday, following an independent ethics investigation that found he violated state harassment and workplace policies. Why do Democrats always do the right thing and resign but Republicans don't?

The sea was angry that day, my friends—like an old man trying to send back soup in a deli!" Pre-storm, Rehoboth Beach, DE. At least half the beach is gone. I'll try to get there tomorrow when the storm actually arrives.

We took a ride to Rehoboth Beach this morning to check out the waves. The Nor'easter is coming our way. The video does not do it justice.

I just figured out how to handle the high cost of gas, magat style. Last week, I spent $64.00 filling an almost empty tank. Today, I spent only $33.00 filling up the same tank, which was only half empty. See how it works, magat style? The price of gas dropped almost 50%.

I sometimes watch The Andy Griffith Show reruns; a guy in a red Mustang pulls into the gas station and orders $3.00 worth of super. Ahhhhh, the good old days. BTW, that is about nine gallons in 1967. Now it won't even buy a gallon.

Prediction: If, when Dems take back the House and the Senate by the biggest landslides in history, it will be a bumpy road to January 6. Reps will contest every vote that they didn't get. If you think Jan 6, 2021, was bad, Jan 6, 2027, will make it look like a walk in the park

The guy who lives in my neighborhood just walked past my house. I had to do a double take because I thought it was Mitch McConnell. I got up to get a better look and realized he was walking by, not rolling by. It wasn't Mitch but he does look like him.

Gas prices aren't going to come down for a long time. I have questions for you: As a result, are you driving less? Do you think gas prices will drop to pre-Iranian war prices? If so, when?

Yesterday I paid $64.00 for 14.5 gallons of gas; seven months ago, I paid around $40.00 for the same amount of gas. How much will I pay in about 10 days?

A few weeks after 9/11, a friend and I took a train from Connecticut to NYC to take a look at the area around the WTC; these are some of the pictures I took before I was told not to take pictures because it was a crime scene.
