Re:Cat owners and Christmas trees. From the cat's perspective.

All year long, you play with me with shiny, dangly things. All year. Then at the end of the year, you bring in this huge green tree filled with shiny, dangly things, but now I can't play with them?!?!?!

When you receive good customer service, please take the time to fill out a survey

and tell the company that you received good service. Your fellow working man/woman's compensation is based, at least in part, on customer surveys.

Don't take these surveys for granted.

Trust the Process. The Democratic presidential primary process that is.

The four Democratic presidential nominees in this century have all been outstanding people. The ones that didn't win the presidency was due to voting chicanery in Florida, homophobia, 9/11, Russian interference, and good old fashion racism, but we should take heart that the nominating process itself produced stellar candidates for the job.

And it will do so again in 2020. We're the majority party. We're the smart party. We nominate good candidates because of who we are.

Trust the process.

Has anyone seen the new season of "Daredevil" on Netflix?

Man, there are some real parallels between Kingpin and Trump. In sum, Trump and Kingpin share the same idea of what the role of the FBI should be.

Gifts in the song "Twelve days of Christmas" are highly impractical and probably illegal

A partridge in a pear tree,
Two turtle doves,
Three french hens,
Four calling birds,
Five gold rings,
Six geese a-laying
Seven swans a-swimming,
Eight maids a-milking,
Nine ladies dancing,
Ten lords a-leaping,
Eleven pipers piping,
Twelve drummers drumming.


First, there are 23 birds in all. Where are you supposed to house all of this fowl? Next, you have 50 people either milking, dancing, leaping, piping, and drumming. Again, what are you going to do with all of these people.

Your neighbors are going to call the authorities with all of those birds and people running about in your home. Well, at least the five golden rings have some value.

Chris Hayes' "Why is this Happening?" podcast is must listen for Liberals. Must listen.

Just listened to his podcast on Medicare for All. It was perhaps the best, most substantive discussion on healthcare that I've ever heard from a mainstream journalist and his guest.
