Not Expansion Team

My home town Tennessee Titans are an established NFL franchise. They are NOT the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the 1970's. Billy Cannon and George Blanda brought championships to the Titan's predecessors, the Houston Oilers. I am sure the Titans current ownership wants to put on a great show with all the pageantry surrounding football games. I only wish that Amy knew something about winning football. The Titans will soon have a magnificent new stadium to lose most of their games in, but the best Anthem singers and halftime shows in the League will brighten the occasion. 

Dutch Dogs Entertain

If you have never encountered a Keeshond, you are really missing out. These "Barge Dogs" have been called the "laughing clowns" of the canine world. They are versatile from agility trials to therapy dogs; this breed really stands out. I am a rescuer of this fine line of companions. I have helped liberate and place over seventy-five of these glorious pups through the years, and been smitten with the more than half dozen that joined our menagerie over the decades. If you want a dauntless protector, invest in a Doberman, but if you want hours of unforgettable entertainment, find yourself a Kee!

Tailored Straight Jacket

I am not a psychiatrist or psychologist, but in my humble opinion, Marjorie Taylor Greene is a lunatic. One fact of which I am certain is that the Georgia US Representative hates Jews who support Israel (which is the majority of Jewish Americans). Trump is right to drop his support of this conspiracy theorist. I hope a sane MAGA Trumpster defeats this albatross who has attached herself to the neck of the GOP. 

Peace Through Relocation

I am a Jew in Tennessee. If I were in New York City right now with the ascension of a Jew-hater to the mayoralty, I would leave. I might make aliyah, but I certainly would not remain in the city. There are places within America that are still Jew-friendly, at least at the moment. So an urgent flight to Israel might not be necessary yet. 

Long National Nightmare

The longest ever government shutdown has ended, not with a bang but with a whimper. In the dreaded event, exactly nobody died from lack of Federal services. Some had pay delayed, which will be made up. It was not great to lose continuity of government in certain areas, but the nation survived it. 

Some Venezuela Intelligence

The folks the United States Navy are rubbing out around Venezuela are NOT innocent fisherman, but transporters of deadly narcotics. Apparently, the United Kingdom disapproves of America being proactive in the "War on Drugs" and has stopped intelligence sharing concerning it. Since I want Americans to stop dying from Fentanyl and other drugs, the British can go screw themselves. 

The Shutdown Ends

Is it just a coincidence the United States Senate finally voted to end the government shutdown after the election? It is almost as if the DemocRATS maintained their unified stance only to win votes. It has always been DemocRATS that in past shutdowns had pushed to reopen government while Republicans were the recalcitrant ones. Oh, how the worm turned when an election was at stake.
