Rough night last night-- I picked up something respiratory with a low-grade fever, hopefully not Ohio's first coronavirus case, and I'm going to go take it easy.
I'll try to get to comment approval a few times throughout the day but doubt if I'll be doing any more blog posts, so please don't expect anything on tips.
UPDATE: Yeah, great-granddaddy of all Type A flu bugs. Was actually semi-out of it last night-- kept waking up fixated and frustrated on an unresolvable legal point which, now, of course, I can't remember for the life of me because it was all in my head. Aside from a racking cough making the ribs and diaphragm sore as hell, I am mud-headed, dizzy and weak as a kitten, so if anybody wants to take a poke at me, now's a pretty good time.
Anyway, just got back from urgent care and the pharmacy and getting ready to go curl up in the easy chair. I'm taking today off and we'll see about tomorrow. I may just say screw it and start a long weekend of rest, recuperation and just plain laziness, milking this for all it's worth and scamming the family to wait on me.

Report: Pelosi Security Points Gun at Trump Supporters From New Jersey Rooftop [More]I pass this on because it is interesting, and outrageous if true. I do urge caution before just deciding it is and would like to see more substantiation first, including if a police report has been made.

The majority of Super Tuesday states, where 2020 Democrats presidential primary candidates are vying for delegates, have had their electorates rapidly changed by mass immigration to the United States over a relatively short period of time.

LAPD Has No Excuse for Not Arresting DA’s Husband for Brandishing ~ VIDEO
Consider if you pulled a gun on people outside your door who weren’t trying to break in or otherwise threaten you. You would already have been arrested and arraigned. And you know what? You’d deserve to be. You don’t pull a gun on someone unless you’re ready to use it, and if you do, you’d better make damn sure the threat is real. [More]I guess I misjudged the readership on this one and am frankly surprised by how many are siding with the anti-gun DA, saying their state laws allow them to open the door and escalate a situation by pulling a gun on people who are not trying to break in or otherwise threaten them, and that the DA, who is a top and connected lawyer advised by other top lawyers on just what to say to the media to sway public opinion, has made the only case they need to hear.
