Happy
Continuation of Democracy Day!
Let's celebrate this anniversary every day so we never
forget.
-------------------
You know that massive traffic jam in Virginia where
people were trapped in their cars on the highway for
24 hours or more in the middle of a raging snowstorm?
I've read more than one comment that went
along
the lines
of "Too bad for anyone that was in an electric vehicle."
Responses from EV fans have been along the lines of "My
EV kept me warm and I still had 70% of power left to
drive
home."
My response to the fossil-fuelies was "Yes, batteries
may run down eventually but the carbon monoxide from
your cars engine will help you sleep better."
-------------------
While I'm on the subject of electric heat...
Did you know that no UL approved space heater in the
U.S. can draw more than 1500 watts? No matter how big
or how
small
it is.
This is a limitation of the way the typical U.S. homes
is wired for electricity. So if one space heater at
the
Big Box is bigger than the other, it's for marketing
purposes.

1/6 Committee: "Hey, Hannity. We have this text
we want to talk to you about."
Hannity: "Nuts ta yer text!"
1/6: "Two words... Chris Cuomo."
Hannity: "I'll be right there."
-------------------
Why is Melania selling her hat for a quarter mill when
Trump's treacherous, ultra-wealthy base would gladly
hock themselves into oblivion for a chance to buy her
underpants, especially if they're still wet, gooey or
betray an obvious skid mark or two.
------------------
NFL: "Well, crap! California's overwhelmed with
Covid and they might just have to cancel the Super Bowl
over public health concerns. We need to find a state
and stadium pronto that doesn't give a shit about the
virus or how many people die."
ATT Stadium, Dallas: "Hold my beer."
-------------------
Hey, here's a bit of an embarrassing twist...
I may not have had omicron after all. My friends from
the Xmas party, whom we suspected had contracted the
virus, were able to get a test from their doctor and
they came up negative. I'm currently trying to track
down
an antigen test but so far without luck (It's Texas,
okay.). Be that as it may, all symptoms have passed
of what I
now
suspect
to
have
been a case of allergic rhinitis.
So wash your hands , wear your masks, and lock yourself
in a bank vault for the next two years.
