Word of the Day

Wow. When people cared.

Today’s campaigns are brutal. Surprised we don’t just get into a ring and punch it out. Sure would get us a younger crowd but with more brain injuries.

Anyone can be President nowadays.

I quit paypal. Is there an address I can send the check?

Are you still at the address:
1313 Mockingbird Lane?

Are there T-shirts and bumper stickers available for this campaign?

The Munsters moved out in 1966. :grin:
Send the cash to MFP Security Services Inc.
1784 Bullshut Lane
Nortonville Ca. 94565
No cash no T-shirts.

Meh, political winners often play to demagoguery, and demagoguery by nature doesn’t necessarily require one to be “smart.” Take MFP, for example, he isn’t necessarily the smartest water hole president. He just cleverly manipulated the rest of the critter citizenry to believe he’s in control of it.

He stood his ground :cat2: when challenged by The Gang :raccoon:of :raccoon: :raccoon:Three and ran them off, beating the ground at their feet like a maniac. Probably my favorite Weeds & Water video.

  • What he considered the most admirable of human virtues:  Courage
  • What he said was his best quality:  Curiosity
  • What he said was his worst quality:  Irritability - impatience with the boring or mediocre

Yeah, but MFP wasn’t exactly “SMART” for doing any of that. In one on one fights between Cats and Racoons, the racoons almost always win, let alone 5 on 1. They’re not even in the same weight class, and they’re using different tiered weapons too. MFP got lucky that @Antonius:raccoon: squad was chill and just messing around.

We need an intelligent person with exceptional insight and the proven discipline to maintain a broad and balanced perspective.

Must find humanity interesting and worthy of respect all the way down.

Presidential enhancements:

  • Is alive in their voice and makes you want to hear more.

  • Speaks plainly and answers questions directly.

  • Thinks well on their feet and relishes challenge.

  • Pauses to reflect and goes on.

  • And humor.

‘Hero’ enhancement:

  • A robust physicality.

If everyone did just this, life would be so much better.

PS: a great way to teach kids this is my personal favorite kids book of all time (If Everybody Did: Stover, Jo Ann: 9780890844878: Amazon.com: Books)

MONEY
Not form me. I paid my property tax bill today via check and used an old forever stamp. They wanted over $50.00 to pay via credit card plus they want a “donation” for families at risk. Since I have a 50% exemption (fee reduction) for a 100%Veterans disability I will just donate what I want to the MFP for President and the critter water and snack funds at the Weeds & Water. California wants tips and donations for everything these days.
