I am glad you are ready “The Grapes of Wrath.” I read it as a young child at my father’s insistence. He had lived through the dust bowl days, and had told me many frightening stories about it. I have since reread it a few times, always finding a deeper meaning in it. The movie made from the book is well worth watching, also. It stars Henry Fonda, who brings the book to life as few other actors of that era could have.

They built the "Alligator Alcatraz" detention center for two reasons, one as a troll and the other to distract from Trumps moronic obsession with re-opening the real Alcatraz which was never going to happen. It's probably irrelevant if it doesn't work. They can always throw more money at it later if it seems to matter to their public image.

"Just a quick jolt here. “I had a heard time waking this morning….” Well, no wonder after a three-day weekend and high heat and fireworks"

I am hearing you loud and clear

The next door neighbors directly N and S from me go into the AM hours, if fact they both

use fireworks all year around

It is very cool with me

One thing about the Natural Disaster clip was watching those within feet of the situation

wouldn't move away and would watch the happenings

Damn, maybe it is just me but I would be Running away from the scene

Good Stuff as always, Greg
