I've been warped by the rain,

  driven by the snow

I'm drunk and dirty don't ya know, and I'm still, willin'
And I was out on the road late at night
I'd seen my pretty Alice in every head light
Alice, Dallas Alice (Lowell George)

nobody had their finger of the pulse of America back in the day quite like Lowell George  and Little Feat....another character of the long dark night taken from us way too soon......but i myself have just extricated myself after 4 long days journeying the roads of the south.....through State parks and national Forests......up mountains, around lakes and so on........we rolled through Greenville, took a respite in the land of JR.......we stopped in Nashville for 48 hours of Mayhem and rounded it out with a Visit to Clemson......saw a hockey game, caught a Blues Traveler concert at the Ryman and ate and drank like a Pirate looks at 60.....

I am Happy to report that America is Alive and Well.........the economy is booming for hardworking Patriots that played by the rules...lowered their heads and endured a lot of BS the past 20 years.....the dark cloud has lifted........and MAGA Nation was out on the streets of Nashville taking a victory lap , enjoying the seasonably warm temps, drinking cold beeeer like oxygen and Loving Life in the USA.

That's not to say that our great nation does not have a long, hard fight in front of us......the truth is the left was smart enough to seize the education system 40 or 50 years ago.....and we have to deal with a lot of people that have been brainwashed by the liberal ideology that globalism/Socialism is better than Capitalism....that open borders and traveling Nomads are better than controlled immigration and protecting our sovereignty , and that by tearing down the top echelon of society you somehow raise the bottom rings of the ladder.........the demonrats own the teachers union and use them as a piggy bank.......they have been fighting hard for decades to eliminate the Catholics schools and now the Charter schools.....they despise choice.....they want one singular voice telling students from 1st grade to college that America isn't exceptional, that we were built by slaves and trans is normal and not a mental disorder...... that it's okay to defy Federal law to protect an illegal alien but don't you dare try to form a sanctuary city for the unborn fetus........and for the first time in our lifetime there was a glimmer of hope on the college campuses.......a beacon of free, honest, truthful speech.......and after he was murdered by a trans adjacent assassin,  i was shocked to learn that conspiracy theories immediately arose to accuse a tired old villian.........Israel.......are they simple enough to believe that everything  bad in the world is the fault of the jewish state or are they clever enough to spew this nonsense as a distraction to the vapid ?

The next two weeks will offer a glimpse into the future of America.........NY stands on the precipice of electing a Jew Hating, Moslem, Socialist as mayor.......Nj may chose another DEI empty suit without a plan or an idea.....even her own party has distanced itself from her lone position on energy costs.......she was admitted to the Naval Academy at a time when anyone with a pair of tits and a pulse was given a free pass.....and she was caught up in a cheating scandal and not permitted to march at Graduation..... and down in Virginia the party of tolerance is supporting an AG Candidate that wants to put a bullet into his opponents head and the head of his children.....and their candidate for Governor can't bring herself to condemn these words......so yes, there is a lot of work ahead of us......

silly side note....the liberal left media is losing their minds because DJT is building a new ballroom on the White House.....using his own $ and Corporate donations.....unfortunately they couldn't delete all the clips of CNN reporting with admiration and glee when Obama spent $200 million of taxpayer $$ to construct a basketball court at the same White House........selective outrage and hypocrisy rule the day.......but hey......at least we still have NASHVILLE.

2+3=BEEER

 And I been from Tucson to Tucumcari

Tehachapi to Tonapah
Driven every kind of rig that's ever been made
Driven the back roads so I wouldn't get weighed
And if you give me weed, whites and wine
And you show me a sign

I'll be willin', to be movin'
