I think having land and not ruining it is the most beautiful art that anybody could ever want.
-------------Andy Warhol
I'm back! I'll pause for a moment while you say, "Who cares?" With that out of the way, now I'll address the other thing you're saying, "Where were you, Sir? And why were you gone so long? Two days feels like forever when you're not here. I was starting to have panic attacks, because, after the first day, it felt like the time you said you were going out for cigarettes and didn't come back for five years."
I had to go to Vegas. Because gambling is still illegal here in the Neon Fun Jungle and I needed to place some bets.
Like, what will die first, the stock market or President Musk's caddy, Donny What's His name? I put my faith in Natural Causes on that one. But what if Tiny Hands manages to beat the actuarial tables? Well, Wall Street has survived so many hard crashes that I'm not sure Little Donny can do it in. On the other same hand, the stock market has killed lots of people ((Google "Day Traders' Suicide Rate," if you don't believe me)), so I think it's going to win this fight. I say, "It's going to take more than an obese senile 78-year-old with one foot in the grave to kill the stock market," and I put my money where my mouth is. All ten dollars of it.
I also bet on Melania Tramp's first speech. Who will she plagiarise this time? "I Have A Dream" by MLK Jr. has really good odds but I went with, "We choose to go to the Moon," which was delivered by JFK on Wonderific Wednesday, September 12, 1962.
Because President Leon Musk wants to go to Mars. And Melba wants him to like her. Word on Pennslyvania Avenue is that she's planning on him being the next Mr. Tramp.
So that's the where, what and why of where I've been for the last two days.

@sallypup The really sad thing is they will probably suffer more than the idiots who voted for him.

If this week hasn't clearly shown you what will happen, you need glasses. The positivity we need will come in the form of a headline like this----Massive Heart Attack Kills Trump.

@xander6464 Karma will bite hard so I try not to wish bad things on others. It is ok to not like him or his policies, but it is also ok to hope for positivity in all this.

I keep forgetting that the key to prosperity lies in giving tax breaks to billionaires.

Minute by minute, it gets more interesting. Did you see the Tuberculosis outbreak in Kansas? Trump has a chance to kill even more people than he killed with COVID.

I keep dreading seeing some crazy headings in the papers each day but since I haven't I figure as long as my life is not threatened let Trump do his thing as President,

@RasmaSandra The Fed stuff is pretty well shut down for now- hope it starts soon cause hospitals and daycare centers and folks dependent on Meals on Wheels are be to crying otherwise.
