Chilly morning, despite the weather forecast. They don’t seem to get it right most days. And of course my well laid fire went out last night and it took quite awhile to get some flames going this morning. The repair guy is supposed to be here between 9 and 11 to look at the heater. Hopefully it will be a simple fix and I can then turn the thermostat to the temperature I like and forget the hassle of the wood stove. On a positive note; having a wood stove is certainly a plus when the heater stops working.
Again, the news is interesting. Here’s a good headline…
"We are looking at a $100 million entry fee."MICHAEL TONER, chairman of the Federal Election Commission, on the presidential race.
One hundred million dollars. That’s per candidate, not the total. That’s also the publicly recorded amount of money and not any money that slips in under the radar. And I suppose you thought that they were elected because they were smart, talented, “the man (or woman) for the job”, great patriots, etc, etc. Obviously, none of that applies. Only money and lots of it. The presidency is for sale and has been for quite awhile. But, denial is an All-American trait; so we pretend that money isn’t that important to the final selection of our leader.
