And God said, “Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.” And behold ! It appeared at Donald's command

OK, let's call it unreasonable to demand sex tests before athletes can join a woman's/girl's team. How about giving athletes the right to demand a sex test? If coach doesn't believe you, you can demand a test.

I just read something and came across a word I thought I knew, but it was used with an unusual meaning. So, I looked it up. I could be wrong. Nope. The writer (bless 'is heart!) misused it.

Somebody: "What's your Jewish friend's opinion about Gaza?" Somebody else: "What's your Arab friend's opinion about Gaza?" Me: Opinions? Nobody has opinions. Either you're a genocidal racist or you're not.

Just watched a show on Netflix (no more names) with a character so cute I just wanna call her up and dance with her. I know; I know; it's fiction. I know.

Mirrors are everywhere. I sit here in front of my computer screen, dark before I turn it on. It reflects my nearly naked body glistening with sweat. Is that all there is to that image? ...

No, of course not. You can’t help but fill in the rest of it. You don’t know, but your imagination tells you whether I’m male or female. Am I a 20-year-old here to report on a just-completed sexual adventure? Or perhaps I’m an octogenarian coping with a heat wave.

Look, I'm anti-war. I went to jail instead of Vietnam. So, I'm not saying the Pope is wrong. But let's stop acting like this is not the first time in history a Pope has opposed a war.

Just had this whole long conversation with my 30-something offspring. It was all via text messages. Nobody can see me sitting here crying and laughing.

In less than two years, Hitler occupied 9 countries: Poland (1939), Denmark (1940), Norway (1940), Belgium (1940), the Netherlands (1940), Luxembourg (1940), France (1940), Yugoslavia (1941), and Greece (1941). What's next after Venezuela as we gear up for World War III?

Welp, The FIFA Peace Prize winner just ended another war, this one almost before it began. Why fight a war when you can just walk in and take over? Makes me think the same kind of thing could be done in the United States if enough people had the will. Law? What law? There is no law but power.

So, here's a suggestion for the reporters on 60 minutes. Take your facts to Congress. Do you have enough evidence to impeach? Don't self-censor because there is little hope. If a little is all we have, then we go with that.

The current President is moving toward an un-declared war with Venezuela. Our objections are valid, but not new. In 1950, President Truman led us into a "UN police action" which cost more than 35,000 American lives. The history of armed conflict without Congressional approval starts there.

Shooting of National Guard troops in Washington, DC Sad. I do not endorse such activity. But what did they expect? And how do you think we're going to overthrow Trump's dictatorship? With or without a violent revolution, as long as Trump is with us, there will be blood.

What if we asked masked ICE agents for their documents? If they don't identify themselves, are they undocumented? Maybe they should be detained/arrested as possible illegal immigrants.

"If a man builds 1000 bridges and sucks 1 dick, no one calls him a bridge builder -- they call him a cocksucker." ~~Vince Boudreau (played by Woody Harrelson) So, what if a man ends 8 wars?

Tuesday, the House votes on release of Epstein files. How about Wednesday, we start on Impeachment. Sure, the Senate has a track record of not convicting on sufficient evidence of high crimes and misdemeanors, but don't you think they'd find a way to get him for "blowing Bubba"
