Quote from Washington Times editorial board "[Radical liberals] don't realize that, when they express contempt for the man who holds the country's highest office, they reveal their contempt for the Americans who put him there."

Uh no...we definitely realize it.

Finished my Waxwing. The 757 cast on stitches transformed into the triangular edging. It was actually a quick project. Rowan Felted Tweed is a long time favorite, consequently there are always balls and scraps in my stash.

I don't know, maybe it's because I'm a big Carl Sagan fan but I'm super dismayed out how many people these days seem to think that Nuclear Weapons are fine. And not, you know, a completely insane way for us all to live.

My secret vice.
