Greetings from Tyler,
To hear the media tell it, we’re all in grave danger. Trump however goes on and on, telling us not to worry about an Iranian attack. They’re destroyed. I don’t know why they keep putting on such a brave face. Maybe because they know the media is buying it. Iran has been a sore spot longer than we can remember, and they’ve been calling us something I won’t dare to repeat. But they never saw Donald Trump coming. Neither did we.
The war in Iran goes on, but Trump says not much longer. He’s calling the shots and I believe him. They’re down to their second or third string for Ayatollah. Nobody wants to emerge as Iran’s new leader. For obvious reasons.
I still don’t like Zelensky. Ever since I saw that he was with a comedy troupe with who-knows-whose legs in the air. He should have known better. But the war goes on, and I don’t think that relations are getting any better. Putin may be an oligarch, but Zelensky…
The lines around airports are bad and getting worse. I wouldn’t mind if they disbanded the TSA altogether. I’ve not told this story before, but Dad and I traveled to Australia in the winter before he died. Winter over here means Summer in Australia. They searched us thoroughly before we were allowed to board the airplane. I was mad. But the TSA is blind. Especially now that they got these X-ray machines. I know there’s a way to go to the shorter line, but there wasn’t then, and I resent it. Not only that, but the TSA agents were mostly foreigners. GRRRR.
All of a sudden, with the advent of Donald Trump (he flies private and has never been groped) we’re talking about expansion. The power is out in Cuba. We’re talking about taking over Greenland, and who wouldn’t want to be part of our glorious country? I marvel at how we’ve been blessed.
Weather has turned great here, and you people up North don’t have long to wait. I talked to a friend and the weather is great in Vancouver. But they’re not happy with their leadership. Me? I’m happy.
Mark
