Phnom Penh, Cambodia
Oh my goodness, y’all!
You’d think what with the Dems winning the senate and Trump’s Capitol insurrectionist riot and Trump’s second impeachment that Ye Olde Blogge would be all over that! And, I guess we should’ve, but I found it all a bit overwhelming to be honest.
When I got up and saw the riots on the TV, like most people, I was just glued to the screen. I couldn’t quite quit for about 24 hours or so. My emotions have been everywhere ranging from anger to sadness and amusement to anguish since then.
And, then there was this verdammten series on the racism in our deep culture that I couldn’t quite finish writing and couldn’t quite postpone, too.
Anywho, the second installment is posted having withstood a test of technological fire and I should have the third done soon.
Then, it is on to the extended season of schadenfreude that will characterize the post-Trump glory days.
Huzzah!

The Chinese people are somewhat indifferent. The ones in the know are either shocked like we are or are happy because they know it weakens America. If you look at all of Trump’s business deals, you know he gets taken every time. Every. Time. Sometimes, he is even taken by himself. When he owned casinos in Atlantic City. He had three. Two small and one large. He couldn’t figure out why they didn’t make money — he was in competition for himself! By building his large casino (he had to have one of the biggest) and not removing the two smaller ones (he had to have the most), he simply divided the pie into smaller pieces instead of increasing the size of the pie! Christ, our opponents are going to eat our lunch!
Huzzah!

Quebec City is one of my most favorite places in Canada, and if we ever move back to North America, it is one of the places that I will advocate for. Ma Femme made me promise that if Trump won, I’d take Canadian citizenship. That was 18 months ago. I figured, there’s no way Trump will win, so I did. Ha ha, eh?
Huzzah!

I understand that N. Korea is beginning to advertise for Americans to retire there. They’ve got some cheap housing and low cost of living! I’m sure you’ll fit right in and it will be much better than living here for the next two years.
Huzzah!
