Hanksy Halloween!
We didn’t get an end-of-summer show from the Back of the Station Wagon, but Tom Hanks is here now to DJ his way with a Happy Halloween special from Boss Radio 66!
CrAZy State
After my father’s death five years ago, I gave serious consideration to paying my siblings to buy our parents’ retirement home in Arizona. I am very glad I decided against it. First, the pandemic would have made it extremely difficult to look after the property, and now there is the insanity of AZ political candidates who deny the legitimacy of the 2020 election in favor of Joe Biden. Mark Finchem is either seriously self-deluded or he’s flat-out lying with a straight face.
Rep Pushback
Jim McGovern is my representative in the United States House. Although I am loath to embed a Tweet, especially now that Twitter is under control of the crazy rich guy from South Africa, McGovern has something to say to Marjorie Taylor Greene.
YOU called for Nancy Pelosi to be executed, @RepMTG.
YOU said she should be hung for treason.
And now that someone listened, you're making Paul Pelosi's attack about YOU.
This is what Republicans stand for, America. It’s sick. https://t.co/Nrfbcj4eXI

Postwar Candydates
The first Halloween after VJ Day. Nancy Pelosi was 5, Bernie Sanders was 4, and Mitch McConnell was 3. So don’t call them Boomers! I can imagine Mitch, Alabama-born and raised, wearing one of those spook costumes when he was a kid. Joe Biden? Halloween, 1945, he was three weeks away from turning 3.
