ODD is me!!

Wait - I thought that was Russia?

We have to be careful with Carney. He doesn't speak in sound bites, he is honest and he thinks. So when he speaks he includes the spectrum of possibility and his thought process.

Coffee, straight out of my nose.

They don’t call it Sanibel and Captiva for nothing.

Mile High Club informs Corey Lewandowski he must now philander commercial.

Watch how they vote this week.

I’m noticing the distraction seems to be working.

Adding the LT is not essential but it does tick off 2 servings of veg for me.

The bears are after your groceries so if you keep things tidy, it’s usually okay. No guarantees, of course. I once startled a cougar who decided not to eat me - you never know.
