History, hiking, camping, and kayaking. During this long cold winter, please keep your thoughts with the people of Ukraine. And a supportive email to your Congress person couldn't hurt.

He is an idiot. So are we.

Do we even remember that Iran had a democracy in the 1950's and we and the British toppled it? We installed the Shah, because he gave us easier access to their oil. How'd that work out?

We are idiots.

Absolutely dead on! WTF does our Constitution even mean anymore?

At least he's got his shirt on. I wonder if he sleeps in blue jeans?

Ukraine is building up it's own defense industry, with help from Europe. They WILL win. Putin is going down. Trump can offer him asylum at Mar-A-Lago.

Honestly, his act has gotten old. Just a tired old clown show.

I like to go with criminal. It's organized crime.

I do think Trump will try. The recent SCOTUS ruling that Trump can't impose tariffs by Executive Order gives me hope. An EO to take over elections is way crazier than tariffs. I think SCOTUS will rule against Trump on elections, but at what point does Trump just defy SCOTUS?

It might unlock it in Trump's head. The Constitution says otherwise. Hopefully SCOTUS will get this right.

Nice kettle pond along the Ice Age Trail. There are lots of these in the Kettle Moraine. This one is right in the middle of the city of West Bend, Wisconsin. Got in about 4 miles today.

Same here. Why would anyone want to waste their time? Like watching a drunk puking into a toilet bowl at the bar.

One of my favorite rest stops when I'm out hiking. I'll call this video 'On Frozen Pond.' Could be the trailer for a sequel to 'On Golden Pond'? No? ;-)

I think social media algorithms have been major drivers of our growing social divide over the past 20 years. And I have recently been wondering...why can't we just make the algorithms illegal?

Very well put! Hopefully Iowa grain farmers will remember what happened to their foreign markets when they vote in November.

Brewers hats? Is my beloved state of Wisconsin trying to take the title 'Birthplace of Stupid Men' away from Florida? :-/

One part of this is true...somebody got out of the mental institution.
