Dick Allen has died

https://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/white-sox/ct-chicago-white-sox-dick-allen-died-20201207-zyhngctlgjdq5mzhuq37wnrpmq-story.html

A very underrated player who dealt with racism on an unbelievable level. He used to wear a batting helmet in the outfield for fear of being hit with thrown objects. As a hitter he hit titanic shots.

RIP Mr. Allen. You deserved better.

Excellent Idea LOL

I just read this. "Every time I find an empty box in the freezer or refrigerator I'm wrapping it up and putting it under the tree."

It's worth noting

the Orange Shitweasel, and his fecal leaking zombies, have resorted to the “Dochstosslegende” card. The replay of the “stab in the back” propaganda pushed by German rightists, and eventually the Nazis, after WW1.

Shit then. Shit now.

His spreading of the Trump Plague shut down the wing nut AZ legislature for a week.

Your carpet bombing of the COVIDIOTs with the virus prevents the Reich Wing from meeting.

Many thanks.

I think it can be said, that person who plants seedlings for trees, under whose shade, they will

sit, is a vitally important person for health of a democracy.

What does it say then about a person who spends his time pouring salt into wells, dug long ago, from which we all drink. And future generations will need to survive?

Elevator Encounter

A person I usually have a greeting relationship with, wasn't wearing a mask. I asked what no mask? She just went into a rant about Biden and how it's all fake.

I just said tell it to the virus. My wife was just stunned at the gaping ignorance.

Based on luck, we'll probably get it before her.

The Difference

Because of COVID President Biden asks Americans to wear a mask for 100 days.

Trump says gather up with no masks.

After 9/11 Bush asks the people to go shopping.

The Reich Wing always seems to tap into that deep undercurrent of profound selfishness found in the "me first" American psyche.

If the Biden Administration doesn't prosecute Trump to the full extent of the law it

means silence means concurrence.

Screw that.

Ty Cobb Story

Back in the Ty Cobb days ballplayers not only shared rooms, but beds. One day Cobb's roommate showed up to the ballpark pretty well worked over. The manager asked him what happened.

The player responded that he was in bed when Cobb came in. Cobb proceeded to beat up his roommate. When the roommate asked Cobb why he did it, Cobb responded there was nothing he wasn't first in, including the first in bed.

Unfortunately the reality is there are no images of death

that will cause some Reich Wing governors to implement the necessary steps to mitigate the virus.

The dead can pile up in the streets and nothing will be done.

That is where we are, and have been.

If people are dead they died in freedom.

That is the mentality.
