Who could that be at Trump’s side? It must be his faithful work wife/gal Friday/secretary/companion/girlfriend Natalie Harp.

Dollywoodwind
Okay, so that’s a brass band playing the 9 to 5 theme in this video from tastewar. The “woodwind” pun was just too good to resist.
I’ve never seen 9 to 5. Planet Money has the backstory on how the organization, the song and the movie, came to be.
My curiosity is piqued from seeing that Sterling Hayden is in the movie. I’m further surprised that Hayden was only 70 when he died.
Another surprise was learning that Gina Bacon of ‘Big Planet Noise’ and ‘Someday Matinee’ on WFMU worked for Dolly Parton, who she affectionately addressed as “Boss Lady.” Gina’s been busy since Dolly’s passing, dealing with matters within Parton’s organization.
Now She’s Our Problem Too
It seems that Natalie Harp isn’t just someone for Melania to worry about. Trump’s cute little girlfriend now wields so much influence that she was his only advisor last Friday, when he decided to ban CNN, MSNOW and Politico.

ADding Up
Along the 1-mile walk to Bismo’s place is an ADU house. Over a period of months I watched its progress, from groundbreaking in the yard next to a house, to its completion. Is it for elderly parents of the homeowners? The adult children of the homeowners? Is it a rental?
I have no reason to build an ADU in my backyard, but I’ve been contemplating having significant work done to my house. To the extent that I may want to consider hiring an architect, rather than looking for a general contractor.
Late Night Agents of SHIELD
Stephen Colbert, no longer a late night show host, has bequeathed his Captain America shield to Jimmy Kimmel. But don’t believe the claim that the artifact was first on display at the Marvel Comics offices in 1960. For one thing, in 1960 Marvel wasn’t Marvel, it was Atlas Comics.*
