It feels strange to be a “blogger” who is also observing a pretty airtight news blackout. It is kinda like being a movie critic who has sworn off movies. Today for instance. You, dear reader, will have to fill in my gross ignorance of current events. As a starting point, here are some items that I have a vague awareness of.
– There is a Gov’s race in Virginia that Republicans are pouring billions into and people are saying is “consequential.” Our guy is lackluster Clintonite, Terry McAuliffe. My Virginia- based sister tells my that the Republican candidate is winning the sign battle by a lot. But “signs don’t vote.” That’s something I kept telling myself when Trump signs seemed to outnumber Clinton signs by a ten to 1 margin.
– Now is the time we complain about “Daylight Savings Time.” And for good reason apparently. Daylight savings time is terrible. Here is my suggestion. We spearhead a multi-state “End Daylight Savings Time” compact. When four contiguous east coast states join, it goes into effect.
You’re welcome.
