So, when this is all over, say middle of next week-ish, with whom would you like to spend a day?

Lots of people we've come to know, respect, like, admire, even envy. Politicians, activists, reporters, candidates, pundits, gadflies, raconteurs, bon vivants, doctors, clergy, generals, colonels, and privates. Anybody.

If you could, with whom would you want to spend a day?

Just like all other days of our past 40 years, doing nothing extraordinary - sighing with relief as we lay in our hammock on a nice sunny afternoon.

Every time he comes up for air I'd nail the air in front of his face with fart scented spray,and when it was over lace his towel with fiberglass so he would itch for days afterwards..lol

Passionate citizens doing in their way what we all do - pay attention and contribute in whatever way we can.

I'd take Donnie boy for 4 more if it would get me another day.

This has been a tough 4 yrs but remember what matters.

on the other side of the country. I'm in Santa Fe, NM, he's in Fairfax, VA, in a PhD program in astronomy at George Mason University. I last saw him a bit over a year ago, last October, when he came to visit for about five days. It wasn't long enough, and now with the pandemic it really wasn't long enough.

He's my only son now (my other son, his younger brother, died a bit over three years ago) and he's very precious to me. At this point I have no idea when I might see him again.

So yeah, my son is the person with whom I'd like to spend a day.

How about a day with Trump?!

I'd bring a digital recorder and have it on the entire time I was with him. Then I'd transcribe it verbatim and publish it. The unending word salad of whining, bitching and moaning would be epic!

Just kidding, of course. I'd actually like to spend the day with my wife and/or son.

and pop him each time he lied.......

I've dreamed of having that all-powerful ability many times for him and the Turtle.

And make him eat gruel as payback for the immigrant kids he's horribly hurt.

Just listening in on his congratulatory phone calls would be a blast......

Joe and Kamala will be far too busy for an old fool like me.

Better than that would be a day with my wife who I lost last year.......

Or my best ever outside of family friend who I also lost last year.......

Or my second best outside of family friend who I lost this year.......
