It is hard as heck to look cool when a wave hits you so hard that you lose your hat, sunglasses, and trunks, flips you upside down and pushes you within five feet of the beach. I could live on a seafood diet. I am certain that in a former life I was a pirate.…

I had an odd dream last night. I dreamed that Republicans just gave up the border fight in Washington and we opened up our borders to everyone. Then I dreamed that Republicans threw up their hands and said that liberals could have their way and non citizens could now vote. Then I dreamed that in…
What we can be.

Five Sure Fire Ways To Win A Political Argument On Facebook.
