Yes, we are having thunder and lightning here. Plus a little rain...Mostly frozen since it's 27 degrees (-3 C). It's rare to have thunder and lightning in the Winter but it seems to be happening more often now. It happened at least once last year. It used to happen about every ten years.
But forget about the strange weather. Today's big story is The State Of The Union speech tonight. Well, really what you're gonna see tonight is the rough draft of the SOTU. Dopey Donny will Tweet the real thing afterward, after my friend Sean (Sean Hannity, not my other friend, Sean Connery) tells him what he should have said.
Wait---I need to apologize. Calling Mr. Trump "Dopey Donny" is pretty disrespectful to him and his many tens of followers. So let me amend that to President Dopey Donny.
Even though Dopey Donny is what we call him around the West Wing. And the East Wing. And Mar-A-Lago. And the Trump Tower. And...Well, everywhere else. But it's far too friendly, informal and honest for a distinguished honorable journal like this. So once again, I'm sorry. I hope Dopey Donny and his supporter forgive me.
That's all I have for today. You can get back to your big SOTU Party preparations now.

I heard that Nancy Pelosi's reactions made it worth watching.

Yes, Dopey Donny for sure. His address tonight was pleasant and better than others.

@celticeagle It just makes me feel good when his own Party turning on him is made public.

I heard that he mentioned that the Senate is mean and unfair to him. I kind of like that.

I am just looking forward to the disapproval of the Dems. The rebuttal should be good.

I agree. The words I really wanted to use wouldn't be allowed here.

His best tactic is to spread his problems around, hoping he will not be caught

I am glad our weather has gone back up into the 70s my sinuses were suffering. I am not watching any speech I have felt bad enough all day and just want my warm and cosy bed.

I didn't watch it either. It's just too much.
I'm glad your weather is getting back to normal.

@JWMILLER We went up to 48 today. That felt really warm but I wish we had 60.

I couldn't either. The commentary is on now and I'm not even watching it. It's kind of the adult version of hiding under the bed until the monster goes away. Except this time, the monster is real.

@FayeHazel I'm the same. I was really hoping the speech would have to be canceled because of arrests and impeachments and when that didn't happen, I got really discouraged.

I've done the tRUMP thing a lot...I'm not even sure why I stopped doing it.
I am looking forward to her, too...I'm also dying to know who, if anyone, is going to get up and walk out of the speech.

@xander6464 The rain is suppose to keep coming for a few more days. Roads and schools are closing due to flooding.

I love storms...But I like them a little warmer than this. Not that I'm complaining because I never do that.

@Irishlasskicker I would like to see what it's like to complain but it's just not in my nature.
