“We’re going to need more sage!”

most of you may have seen this — but laughter is the best medicine

Even though I hoped Biden would win, I was stunned at the closeness of the race. I was stumped.

Half of the country had behaved in a way that really did not make sense to me. But there it was. I was hoping someone could explain what happened. I think the term for my thinking is “cognitive dissonance.” 

I am usually pretty good at putting myself in someone else’s shoes — here, I was damned if I could understand the perspective of millions of people. 

I found it – and it put a little damper on my joyous celebration. The New York Times came to the rescue. Thank you, Frank Bruni.

Well, take note Twin Cities. This snowstorm is something that has never happened this early in the season in 140+ years of record, and likely won’t again in our lifetime. I’m stunned how little the high sun angle and warm ground has done to curb totals. You win Mother Nature.

This is long, but if you need inspiration to keep fighting, you might watch the whole thing
