The Beginning....

The Beginning....
When William Least Heat-Moon toured the country many years ago, his steed, if you will, was a van that he named Ghost Dancing. His journey of America was 13,000 miles. His book is Blue Highways, A Journey Into America. My steed will be a Subaru WRX (traded for an XV Crosstrek). My travels will be, what in the past were called, the blue highways of Virginia. Years ago, maps showed secondary roads in blue. Yes, the ones less traveled.

John Oliver Tells Trump He Should Drop Out!!!!!

OK, I'll admit it, I'm a fan of John Oliver. In fact, I use so many of his videos maybe I should rename my blog. He does a great job in bringing us information that we need and doing in in a humorous manner. John Oliver for president?

What a Great Country. In What Other Country Could We Have This???????

Statues of Trump were erected? in several cities around our great country. Here's what the NYC Parks Department said....

The most surprising government agency to lampoon Donald Trump this week? The New York City Parks Department.
The department issued a short response after an arts group called Indecline hoisted a life-size, naked Trump statue in Union Square park Thursday.
    "NYC Parks stands firmly against any unpermitted erection in city parks, no matter how small," said Sam Biederman, a parks spokesman.

    Are We in the US Ready for a Nekid First Lady........?

    Nekid snaps of Melania Trump are popping up. If interested, take a look here and here. Also, I learned a new word today. A commenter to our local newspaper, used the word sybarite when making a post about Trump.

    My mom always said that we should never make fun of how a person looks. She said they had no choice and that they were born that way.

    Yes, I agree with my mom and always try to remember her advice. However, I  think if you have yourself photographed and put the image out there for us all to see, well, that changes things.

    Speaking from the guys' standpoint, there seems to be a wide range when it comes to what we think is appealing. Some of us like short women, some tall, some redheads, some blondes, some skinny, some more Rubenesque, and so on.

    Now, Melania doesn't seem all that cool to me. She seems....hmmm.....fake and a tad sleazy? She also seems to have gone under the knife. Another aspect for me would be, what kind of person would marry Donald Trump? 

    As a not-so-good analogy, I guess it could be asked, if you wanted a car for the long term, a car you had to drive daily, would you pick a high-performance Ferrari or something less flashy and more reliable? 

    For a day at the track, the Ferrari would be great, you know, rev it to the throttle cut off, torture the brakes, toss it through the corners, drive it like you stole it.....but, to drive daily to work, pick up groceries, pay for the maintenanceand so on? Maybe, not so great.

    I, for one, am not ready for the Trumps.

    Anyway, enough of this....
