I will be glad when election season is over

So that the number of "OMG SEND US MONEY" emails will drop.  Hopefully.

This "caravan" of "refugees" is a Democrat-funded stunt

In case you didn't know, the "caravan" of "refugees", also known as illegal aliens invading our country, just filed a lawsuit in Washington D.C.

So, this horde of the poor 'n starvin, fleeing their war-torn, er, socialist countries, is so poor and destitute that they can file lawsuits against the President of the USA for saying that they can't come in to this country illegally.

Yeah.  Totally legit.

This is such a blatant, obvious Democrat hit job that I actually wonder if it isn't being funded by the GOP in some fashion.  I mean, this caravan of violent thugs and hoodlums (with enough wimmin and chilluns for the media to take photos of for heart-tugging action) is only reminding Americans that the Left cares more about illegal aliens than they do about actual US citizens.  Especially since actual US citizens didn't vote for Hillary, which means they must be replaced by more complacent, obedient socialist brown people who do what they're told when their betters tell them to do it.  Not like those disobedient sister-scrogging, gun-humping, bible thumping, low-sloping-forehead Jesus Freaks in flyover country, amirite?

Yeah, this entire thing is pissing me off, and what makes me even more angry is the fact that this should have been dealt with decades ago.  Close the border.  No birthright citizenship.  ENFORCE THE DAMN LAWS.  But both the GOP and the DNC had incentives to keep the massive flood of illegal aliens going into this country, and now we're dealing with the after effects of decades of importing low-education, low-skill, socialist-indoctrinated criminals who flout our laws with impunity.

Trump got where he is by first hammering America's lack of action on the border.  If Democrats actually think that this caravan of violent invaders is going to help them next Tuesday, they need to stop smoking whatever drugs they're on.  America is fed up with being told that we have to accept MS-13 gang members running unchecked across our border or else we're raaaaaaaaaaacist.  Screw that, and screw every politician who aids and abets this flood of illegal aliens into our country.

Secure the border.  BUILD THE WALL.  And cut off all Federal Funds to illegal aliens.  You don't have to deport them, you just have to cut off their flow of our money and watch them go back home.

File this under "No shit!"

When kids stop smoking pot, their cognitive functions improve.

Marijuana, it seems, is not a performance-enhancing drug. That is, at least, not among young people, and not when the activity is learning.

A study published Tuesday in the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry finds that when adolescents stop using marijuana — even for just one week — their verbal learning and memory improve. The study contributes to growing evidence that marijuana use in adolescents is associated with reduced neurocognitive functioning.

How much money was spent on this study?  It's not like anyone who was forced to hang around the stoners in high school couldn't have told you this for much less.

Your appropriate Halloween post

And last but not least

I have to admit that I love this song.

OooOOOOOOooOOOoooo! Spooky!

Well, just $%^@#

Some gut bug got me two weeks ago.  Laid me up for a week.

Screwed my foot up last week.  Couldn't run.

Today it's a pinched nerve in my upper back.  Tried to work out just upper body stuff, and came home unable to turn my head. 

This getting old crap is starting to piss me off.

I hate buying presents

I never know what to get a person.  What if they already have what I give them?  What if it's just not what they want?

Is it just me, or is there anyone else out there who hates gift purchasing?

One of the worst parts about traveling

Is how it screws with your diet.

The Mrs. and I normally eat a very healthy diet.  Not much fast food, nothing fried, lots of fruit and veggies.

Well, most the time when I travel I can't eat like I do back home.  So my diet goes a little sideways.  I still eat as healthy as I can, but when you have ten minutes for lunch you typically don't get to sit down with a salad.  You have to grab and go.

So when I get back, and I start eating my normal foods again, my body goes into purge mode.  I've been releasing more gas than a cow farm around here.  My wife is contemplating having me sleep outside.  The dog is running from his spot on the couch giving me accusing looks, as if to say "Don't blame me for that, you gross bastard!"

Church this morning is going to be fun.  I think I might need a cork.
