It's Hard to Believe

 It's hard to believe there are millions of morons in the United States, yet observations prove it's a fact.

Simply Explained

 There is only way to describe the last election: Dishonesty. If the count was honest, there would be no argument. If politicians were honest, there would be no discussion. If people were honest, all would demand a investigation to arrive at an honest count. If the media was honest, there would be countless reports on the dishonesty, and how there needs to be accountability. 

Even the least important of poll workers allowed themselves to become minions for the vast dishonesty of those willing to forego all integrity to change an election. That says much about our society, and the rot of deceit by the government. We've become a nation of fools, and the foolishness is destructive.

. “Honesty is the first chapter of the book wisdom.”

― Thomas Jefferson

Irritating Internet

 At one time, much of the information on the internet was text. Videos were avoided, since the bandwidth could have a steep price. Then, "unlimited data" appeared, which let people abuse the data to extremes. This led to bloat, which led to way too much popping up all over a page, and finally: Too much information is in videos, data is again getting pricey, and people like me are forced to wade through the garbage to find the kernel of truth...at a price I find too high. 

Bleh!

Heinous Crime

 I can't think of any better word to describe the effort to sway an election by illegal means. The outcome is never for good, since the odious act of stealing the will of an individual is a crime only perpetrated by the most evil, and the outcome can lead to more terrible crimes. The punishment should be the harshest allowed by law, and the law should isolate society from those involved as long as they live.

Portent?

 A family of Eastern Bluebirds stays in the yard. The number varies, but it appears after the breeding season, the youngsters are chased away, and only one pair claims the yard. This has changed in the last few days.

Eastern Bluebirds stay year round in my area. In fact, they stay year round as far as the northern Mid-West, with those above that area moving south, or to the southwest. That, from past observations, didn't change the amount in my yard this time of the year, until this year.

I counted 21 Eastern Bluebirds on the power line this morning. That's a huge number, which made me do some research. Since my research only confirmed my past observations, this anomaly must mean some severe weather event forced large numbers to my area. Whether it's an isolated event, or a portent of a severe Winter is to be seen. Regardless, I have a feeling it's a rare occurrence, and a treat for the Winter. They're beautiful, and fun to watch.
