Oh Well. . .



THE ABSURD TIMES





Nothing more be said about Vegas.

And a wise man pointed out that all the fires in California make the North Korean Nukes seem much less ominous.





SPORTS? OR SPURTS?



It has been while that the insanity continued and it's pretty late to try to catch up now.  This begs the question: Why would anyone want to?



So, let's start with the National anthem.   It is nothing more than one long rhetorical question to which the only possible correct answer can be NO.  I don't see it now, some 250 odd years later. 



What about kneeling during it?  We really never really got that part, but it is supposedly a protest against racism, especially manifested by cops killing balck people who are unarmed and running away from them and then the cops saying in court "I feared for my life."  Not guilty.



Today, our Moron in Chief wants any NFL owner to bench any player who kneels during the anthem.  Now, the editor here would not play football, even though asked to.  He did teach other players how to throw a spiral and how to hit moving targets and all that, but being attacked by a bunch of angry thugs who outweighed him by about 100 pounds was not appealing to him.



So now, think about this: the defensive linemen are supposed to stop those angry morons until the quarterback throws the ball.   The quarterback is clearly the most vital member of the team as he calls plays, directs traffic, and actually has a three digit IQ.  Now, suppose three or four defensive linemen decide to kneel.  Is the quarterback going to be stupid enough to play?  In he does, how long will he last?  It just will not work.  And that is the end of the sports section.





Fake News



This is interesting.  He threatens NBC's license, but it doesn't have one.  The FCC gives licenses to individual TV and Radio stations that use the "Public Airwaves".  That's why Sirius, Fox, etc can send out whatever they want (so long as it is profitable.



Although the meeting took place long ago in Trump time, it was only last Wednesday that  he heard Tillerson call him a "Fucking Moron."  I imagine this means he doesn't listen?  Or that NBC should lose its "license"?



Never mind, during the meeting he wanted to increase the nuclear weapons by a great deal.  This should bother nobody, as a widespread nuclear war would end the hurricanes.  In fact, it should end everything.  "A consummation devoutly to be wished."



Obama as Key



This is important to think about.  Foreign leaders tell us that when faced with a decision, he asks them "What would Obama do?" and then does the opposite.  So, all we really have to do to straighten things out is to get him to believe that Obama wanted to do all the crazy things Trump has done and so on.  That way, he'd reverse policy.



His moves on Iran mean absolutely nothing.  Only Nitwityahoo is excited about him.  This name for the Israeli rime Minister has caused confusion.  So, a Yahoo is a character in Swift's Gulliver's Travels, Book 4.  There, the most developed life forms are horses and "human beings" live mainly in trees, throwing feces at whatever, and shouting 'YAHOO!"  (Hence their name.)  It seems also to be a favorite expression amongst fraternities in the United States during College football Season with consumption of alcohol.  "Nit wit" seems self-explanatory. 



Conclusion



As we think about it, there is little point in continuing.  Suffice to say that the Trump Presidency is muck like Trump University – except that we are all unwilling classmates in it.
