Can’t claim to have ever been a Deadhead, but I liked a lot of their early work, and I certainly understand why fans loved the Grateful Dead. Bob Weir has died. He had a band called ratdog. A long time ago, somebody from a law firm contacted me, asking if I would sell the domain name dograt that, obviously, I didn’t do.

The Adams Family
Yesterday, I was once again confirmed to be free of cancer. Scott Adams, two years younger than myself, hasn’t been so fortunate. He is nearing the end of his life from cancer.
In what feels like a sort of online farewell tour, Scott had some of his fans on today’s streaming video. They express their appreciation of Adams and their admiration for Trump and his regime.
OK Gone?
This was SIXTEEN YEARS AGO?? This blog is almost twenty so, yeah, that must be right. Is OK Go still going, I wonder?
Downtime
When you’re alone and Trump is making you angry
You can always take some downtime
When you’ve got worries, all the pieces and lack of hurry
Seems to help, I know, downtime
Just get yourself jigsaw puzzled
Linger on the pieces so your thoughts are muzzled
How can you lose?
So take some downtime
Things will be great when you’re in downtime
No finer place for sure, downtime
Jigsaw puzzles are waiting for you
Just hang around and don’t let your problems surround you
There are jigsaw puzzles waiting for you
Maybe you know where some little pieces go to
Where they belong
Downtime
Downtime

ICEnce to Kill
It was so easy to predict what happened today in Minneapolis. An ICE agent, with unknown training and experience, has shot and killed a civilian. The president approves of this action.
The ICE agent who shot the woman should be arrested and charged with second degree murder. Outgoing Minnesota governor Walz should call out the National Guard to confront and detain all ICE agents.
I’ll say it again. Trump’s goal is to create enough civil unrest to declare martial law and call off the midterm elections.
