Goddam dropbox f'd up their "public" options so now I have to do it the old fashioned way. I don't want to. It's a commemorative Dinner plate with Trump's photo. On the back it says "Plate May Poison Food"

  
  
Mouse over to see back of plate...

Really ?

Thanks for the white liberal guilt excuse that would explain me away.

You forget where I'm from.  There's a whole boatload of my hs classmates that feel much the same as I do.  And a few who don't, but most of them do.  If the OC is a backwater, then you're a hic, too.

Oh wait, you've managed to sweep all those OCR's* under the rug and taken the county over and made it a better place.

* orange county republicans ...


Edit:  oh, wait, it was a backwater back then ... cows in the field by the jr hs.  and can you imagine no traffic lights on PCH between the Highlands and the other side of Emerald Bay in Laguna ?  And no buildings in between other than The Shake Shack and the trailer park at El Morro.  I rode the Greyhound down PCH back and forth to Laguna, we didn't have any city buses back then.  Ya, it was a backwater ...  til the easterners arrived ...

ooh, ooh ... I just remembered when Nixon stayed a few days down in the Shores at his brother's place (whose kid went to Corona, the wife dated him in hs) when he was running for prez in the summer of 68.  I had my first run in with the Secret Service at 15 when they stopped me walking back from the Cove up the hill on the way home.  They asked me what I was doing around "here".  I said "I live here, who the fuck are you ?".

So maybe we weren't really a backwater back then ...

must be the meds ... but it was fun to go down memory lane and remind me of where I came from and how it shaped my mind and many others.  I bet you think we burned crosses down at the cove at night instead of driftwood and old tires.

Ever been to Derplahoma?

Pennsylvania is pretty strange, too.  Beer by the case only for starters and only at authorized distributors,  Single bottles can be purchased over the counter in bars to take home.  Or it used to be that way, been awhile.

Ever been to Derplahoma?

Yes, but they and the Lone Star State are the only two in the union with stranger liquor laws than us Hoosiers.

Trust me, there's a lot of drinkin' goin' on in the Beehive State.

I'm married to one.  Mormons do not or are not supposed to drink alcohol.

Next ...

Don't know much about Mormons, hm?

Sorry the base is not what you think it is.  You're right we don't want to boot them.  We just want the system fixed and enforced.  And we are tired of waiting.  Obama promised to get it done in his first year.  Looking back, it was the last thing he wanted to do.  He just delighted in planting all these Constitutional problems to go off like bombs after he was out of office.  He invested in causing future litigation as a means to slow down the processes, weaken Congress with the cause of social justice as the justification.  He did nothing at the border other than open it up and run guns to Mexico.  What a guy.

The only thing holding back our cooperation is build the wall.   and you'll get whiplash from watching how fast the discussion changes to getting things fixed.  Its been that way for decades.  But rather than engage us, its been demonizing by the deliberate conflation of opposition to illegal immigration with all immigration and xenophobia, etc.  

Or do you really want to fix the system ?  or let things go like they are and just sorta kinda do work arounds and just let it happen so you can feel good and let the best intentions be all that matters.  There's a whole bunch of people who think that is the case.
