    Judges Are Too Important… To Let Them Slide Into Office On Name Recognition Or Random Chance Alone

    January 23, 2010 - By ginny

    My friend Steve passed this link along via the group he created on Facebook, Cook County – Know Your Judicial Candidates. We’re in early voting now and the election for these judges is February 2nd, and typically, most people vote at random if they vote at all. Which is pretty terrifying, when you consider that in some way, most of the justices on the Supreme Court started out by either being appointed or elected locally. So let’s not leave this important decision totally to chance, shall we? Because they decided that corporations have First Amendment rights, and so can that…

    The Underoo Bomber’s Intended and Unintended Consequences

    December 29, 2009 - By ginny

    We’re all going to be flying in our underwear someday, thanks to one religious nutjob. Won’t it just be easier if we don Tyvek coveralls and gate-check our clothes and personal items, and maybe go commando while we’re at it? And why Detroit? Probably because of the large Muslim community there.

    Christmas Eve Musical Marathon

    December 19, 2009 - By ginny

    I thought we were doing too much music for Christmas Eve; turns out we’re doing EVEN MORE. And I get to sing as if I’m a lead tenor (and have the melody) on "Carol of the Kings." Via: Flickr Title: Christmas Eve Musical Marathon By: GinnyRED57 Originally uploaded: 19 Dec ’09, 5.59pm CST PST

  • Sorry About The Mess: Trump Wrecking World Economy

    Post: He’s nuts if he thinks manufacturers will move to the US; they like paying rock bottom non-union wages and they’ll pass the higher costs to American consumers. Lose-lose! What can possibly go wrong?

    Since he lives in his own bubble universe, I’m wondering how long his big donors, the few relatively sane conservatives in Congress, and his “IKEA cabinet” will hold out until the murmurs behind the scenes become screaming fights in the Oval Office.

    Spine of steel? Nope. Skull of rock.

    Maury Povich lie detector meme: It says here… Trump is as dumb as a box of rocks.

    Global economy rocked again as rates on imports to the US from dozens of trading partners rose further, with China hit by 104% tariffs

  • Now Listening: Joni Mitchell | Black Crow

    Joni Mitchell album cover Black Crow. A woman is superimposed over an empty road that leads into her silhouette.

    Text:

     

    ”Black Crow - There's a crow flying Black and ragged Tree to tree He's black as the highway that's leading me Now he's diving down To pick up on something shiny I feel like that black crow Flying In a blue sky I took the ferry to the highway Then I drove to a pontoon plane I took a plane to a taxi And a taxi to a train I've been traveling so long How'm I ever gonna know my home When I see it again I'm like a black crow flying In a blue blue sky In search of love and music My whole life has been Illumination Corruption And diving diving diving diving Diving down to pick up on every shiny thing Just like that black crow flying In a blue sky I looked at the morning After being up all night I looked at my haggard face in the bathroom light I looked out the window And I I saw that ragged soul take flight I saw a back crow flying In a blue sky Oh I'm like a black crow flying In a blue sky”

  • Living On Blue Island In Lake Illinois

    A local bike riding friend remarked today that he feels like he’s living on a blue island. I made sure he sees this.

     

    ”JB Pritzker trolled the president on Friday by claiming he planned to rename Lake Michigan as Lake Illinois and annex Green Bay.”
