Today’s Thoughts
It
was overcast this morning but by noon it was much clearer. Weird.
I
have been disappointed with this Congress for quite some time. I hope yesterday’s
antics in the hallway and in a Senate Hearing will be the final wake-up call
for all the members of this Congress. It is 2023 and this type of behavior has
no place in our government. I don’t accept they are frazzled from their hard
work. Just do your job.
Enjoy

Americans pronounce the word 'been' like the word 'bin.' The North-Central
U.S., however, typically pronounces the word 'been' like the name 'Ben.'
Random Trivia…

The
Polish army adopted a bear named Wojtek during WWII and gave it the official
rank of private so that it could be transported around from place to place with
them, carrying their equipment and helping to boost morale. Following a few
years spent alongside humans, Wojtek grew to love indulging in certain
beverages, enjoying wrestling, and partaking in smoke-related activities.
In
fact, the army loved Wojtek so much that he was eventually promoted to
corporal.
