Thursday Motes To Talk About

A sad Good-Bye: Clarence Williams III, who broke new ground as “hippie” Detective Linc Hayes on “The Mod Squad” from 1968 to 1973, has died after a battle with colon cancer. He was 81. I really remember his performance in Miami Vice as “Poppa Legba”. He also spent a lot of time behind the camera. He will be missed.

Ninth grade bully: If you don’t like what they say, call them really nasty names. Former ESPN commenter Keith Olbermann went apoplectic upon learning of U.S. District Judge Roger T. Benitez’s ruling against California’s “assault weapons” ban. The former sports talker took to Twitter to identify Benitez as a “death-worshiping, fascist” and point out that the word “own” doesn’t appear in the 2nd Amendment. Hey Keith, a BS in communication doesn’t make you an expert in anything. While the word “own” does not appear in the 2nd Amendment, the words “the right of the people to keep and bear” do. As do the words “shall not be infringed”. SDASTFU.

This weekend’s Chicago count; 55 shot, 5 dead.

Better yet, just move: Democrats should aid illegal migrants by taking the “radical” step of ending filibuster protections for political minorities in the United States, according to Jorge Ramos, the Mexican-born, pro-migration, Spanish-language TV anchor. Ramos’s employer, Univision, would gain viewers and advertising revenue if more Spanish-speaking migrants were imported into Americans’ homeland. The 60-vote rule in the 100-member Senate helps 330 million Americans preserve their rights by forcing compromises from powerful majorities in Congress. Hey Jorgy, why don’t you help fix the other places, like Mexico. There must be a reason you want to stay here.

I sat in a bar next to a trans-gender, bi-racial, poly-sexual, vegan, who had just been vaccinated. How did I know? They spent 28 minutes telling me-us-we. Whatever.

Just thinking out loud: If there was “no fraud” in the election, why doesn’t Uncle Joe DEMAND a total recount. Then he can laugh at all the people that say there was. He could stand there and laugh and laugh and laugh.

Gas in Honolulu, 6/9/21. Up, about $.04/gal in 8 days. At this rate we’ll hit $6.50/gal. by the end of the year.

How’s your day going?
