Running against World War II hero Dwight Eisenhower cannot have been easy. But Adlai Stevenson brought a certain elan to the task. In a 1952 Fresno speech, he said, “I have been thinking that I would make a proposition to my Republican friends … that if they will stop telling lies about the Democrats, we will stop telling the truth about them.” On another occasion, when a supporter approached him and declared, “You are every thinking man’s candidate,” he replied, “Thank you madam, but I require a majority.”

So I bought a trike today… Not the exact one I test rode a couple of weeks ago, it will be completely Atomic Orange and I opted to add an electric motor. Basically, it will be built for me and final assembly will be at The Bike Rack in St Charles. So imagine this trike in bright Atomic Orange, but with an electric motor instead of the single front chain-ring. It’ll make getting up hills a little easier for me. My left leg is the weak, flollopy one (TM Barbara Good), but on the test ride I was able to…

This set of morning movements looks tailor made for some of my stubborn post-stroke issues. 35 years ago I used to take a Tai Chi class (Wu style) and some of the forms and stances were similar. Link leads to Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/share/v/187DYYqMfX/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Now he’s reduced to grabbing his own Arc d’Drumpf, so he fired the nay-sayers. Reportedly, he asked the engineers if they could demolish the East Wing at night. So he settled for barriers. And fired the board with oversight on the project. Link: Trump fires federal arts board in charge of reviewing White House ballroom and ‘Arc de Trump’

We improvised as we didn’t have Greek yogurt. So, olive oil mayo, and threw in a wee can of black olives. Next time, would use a stick blender to cream half of the canned garbonzos, and maybe some tahini with the creamed beans too.

Trying amitryptiline for the persistent “burning tinglies” in my left arm, hands, and left side. I suspect the carpal tunnel is overlaid a bit with this CPSP on the left side, my doctor started me on a low dose. It may take a few months to dial in the lowest effective dose. At night I can neutralize it temporarily with electric massage, a tight cycling sleeve, and gloves so that I can sleep. Daytime, I wear long sleeves and avoid typing or touching textures. As soon as my bare arm touches my shirt on the side, or upholstery, fabrics, etc.,…

He also hates this photo, in which his labial goiter is prominent. The Russian mouthpiece defending him thinks Time’s editors must be perverts for picking it. Not hard to see why. The “small crown” is the M in Time?? NO KINGS! Link: ‘The worst of all time’: Trump rails against ‘super bad’ Time magazine cover
