From a "Nothing" Burger to a Mighty Mo

-





If you are not familiar with the Washington, DC area during the 1960's, you probably never heard of the The Mighty Mo, a double burger with a slice of pickle and a secret sauce.  It was the big hit of the Hot Shoppes restaurants and it was Delicious, with a capital D!

I haven't thought about those delicious burgers in years, but today my thoughts went from a "nothing" burger to the big ole Mighty Mo.  A burger that was a few years ahead of the Big Mac with a sauce that reminded me of Russian dressing but was called a "Secret Sauce."

To be honest, I had never heard of a "nothing" burger until recently when 45's surrogates and supporters used that term regarding the Russians and the Trump campaign.  Yesterday, July 11, 2017 that all changed with DTJr.'s  release of the emails about his meeting with a Russian government lawyer who wanted to give him dirt on Hillary.  Suddenly, Democrats were walking around with a gleeful twinkle in their eye.  It was a good day to be a Democrat.  Of course, 45's base are screaming NYET, NYET, NYET! 

For me, I won't start dancing until the man is impeached.  Until that time, I will dream of that day when everyone who ever said it was a "nothing" burger when dismissing 45 and the Russian connection will be stuffing their faces with Big Macs and Whoppers.  Better yet, make it a big platter of CROW, heavy on the Russian dressing!

COMING TO AMERICA

    Jakelin Maquin Seven Years Old   Felipe Alonzo Eight Years Old   I cannot stop thinking about these two children from Guatemala, seven-year-old Jakelin Caal and eight-year-old Felipe Gómez Alonzo,  who died in Customs and Border Protection custody.   I am sickened by the horrors of the Trump administration and their cavalier  attitude toward the loss of these children.  GOP Congressman, Peter King had this to say:  "These are the only two children that have died, certainly in recent memory ... considering what does happen in housing projects ... I think ICE has an excellent record." An excellent record would be no DEATHS, you moron!  So the two children are simply statistics, is that what you are saying Mr. King?  Do you think DHS should be given a pat on the back for only having two children die while the children were in the custody of our country?  The children had names.  They were...

Barefoot and Pregnant

The far right of the conservative movement is working very hard to turn back the clock.  Those good ole boys want to keep their women barefoot and pregnant, with their foot firmly planted on the necks of all women.   White men are feeling the pain, their confidence eroded and their manhood in question.  Can you believe a black man actually became president of these here United States?  Thank God, the Russians put a stop to putting that bitch in the White House.  For too long, white men whether privileged or not have been getting by, by the skin of their teeth.  Let's be clear,  women and people of color have had to perform at a much higher level than a white man.  Women have been trying to prove their worth for centuries.   Because of this imbalance, white men became sloppy, self-indulgent  and relied on their feeling of entitlement to get by.   But then they found a hero who could make it all better, change the landscape, take...

Letter to a Founding Board Member

-
Dear Founding Board Member: I knew from my very first board meeting that everyone walked on egg shells around you.  And when you spoke it was not necessarily with authority, but with an unkind smug attitude.  I think the word I'm looking for is strident.  You could be making the most inane statement, but somehow it would sound challenging and strident.   It was only after joining the board that I received comments from members of the community that you were one hell of a bitch.  Even other board members conceded that you were impossible to work with, but I just kept going like the Energizer bunny.  For six years, I kept "gunny sacking" all your pettiness; Silas Marner pecuniary, hatefulness and stonewalling of any new, modern ideas.  Keep in mind that it wasn't just you that was the problem.  You had your accomplices:  the passive-aggressive board members who talked incessantly about you behind your back, but left it to me to confront ...
