23. There's defintely a "lull" in Progressive Activity Support...

Dec 2015

Except for our hopes for Bernie Sanders being a beacon light in focusing discussion for future efforts after this 2016 Election whether he wins or not.

The PTB have managed to whip up the National Attention on "Terra, Terra!" once again. Hillary will keep us Safe with Bill's help and experience and Trump will "Kick Butt."

It's like a watching reply of an old movie you've enjoyed in the past. You are so familiar with the plot and the cast of characters but, it seems that each time you rewatch somehow you see things you didn't notice before. Maybe your taste in movies has changed. Maybe when you were young you focused on certain characters or parts of the plot that kept you fascinated. But, with each rewatch you begin to wonder what you found so interesting that kept you going back over and over. You begin to think that maybe it really wasn't such a good movie as you originally thought -- that the plot was faulty and some of the characters really weren't what you thought they were on first view.

Sometimes it can almost seem like PTSD.

Don't mind me.

Enjoy your Sweat and lets hope for better times ahead, someday.
