I must admit I was totally tempted when it looked like I'd get a free donut, but I managed to resist.

I liked that he made fun of it in "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back."

"Good Will Hunting 2: It's Hunting Season."

Awhile back I turned a corner and there were some people wandering around in the middle of the street. I slowed and was in no danger of hitting them, but none of them seemed aware a car was nearby and eventually finished moseying across the road. Very bizarre.

Cell phones don't help.

Trump's in a catch22. If he's sober during a speech, it's "Trump is oddly low energy, he knows he can't win." If he's pumped, the angle is, "Trump rants and raves."

Wakes up in the middle of the night with a great idea.

"Hey, when reading the Teleprompter I could say "Nine one one," when it's clearly supposed to be read as "Nine eleven."

There was a case of horrific abuse involving a girl named Sylvia who was eventually murdered by her foster mom. The next door neighbor would hear the screaming regularly but told the court when there was a trial that it was "none of her affair."

Not only that, but people abandon their adult cats who have never known life outside a house and figure they can fend for themselves or don't care either way.

I adopted a stray pregnant cat and whatever she had encountered, she was very hostile and tried to escape several times. After she had kittens, she calmed down and is now a sweet lap cat.

I volunteered at a shelter. Someone saw a person put a kitten in a trash can and then drive off in the pouring rain.

They rescued him and when the story hit the local paper, we got about 22 calls wanting to adopt him. Happy ending at least.

I once heard there was an atheist teacher who complained her students were giving her a hard time.

What she meant was that they would say "bless you" if she sneezed.

I'm more concerned about the price of living. I did used to wonder about it and pretend it was happening as a kid. By myself, of course.

I read once that children in the concentration camps "played Selection." Anyone can be desensitized to horror.

I think he was a Nazi. In the movie "October Sky," Jake Gyllenhaal's character says he admires him but he's not his hero. A good thing, too. Of course, Hollywood side stepped the Nazi part.

There was an experiment where they gave a group of people a list of items and told them to rank them in the order they would be helpful if they were dropped into the wild and needed them.

One guy seemed to know what he was talking about, but they dismissed all his suggestions. It turned out that he was right. They then played the video of the whole thing which was a bit embarrassing.

They always have the tone of a parent assuring their toddler that there is not a man eating monster in the closet at night which immediately makes me suspicious.

I heard they had brothels and the one Hitler used to show visitors was also okay.

I didn't know the camps had gourmet ice cream, a cool carousel and lots of neat bookstores. Plus beaches.

The media likes to push the narrative that certain groups are deserting Trump, i.e. minorities, suburban women, etc. I'd be suspicious of their claims.
