I need a pour and three or four more, before I read all those Sunday Op-Eds. What the hell is Left to say, anyway. Right?
Wait One.
Back with three fingers of baby bourbon, “Basil Hayden.” Used that name as a posting nom de plume decades ago. And Autodidact as a “nom de guerre. “ All Hail the dial up BBS. I miss ’em.
And of course and par for…more regret reminiscing; it took me decades to figure that I misplayed my orphanage stay. I should have parlayed the experience/consequence of being a ward of the state into a full ride, “shame on you,” scholarship. But, by that time my anger made any acquiescence to personal betterment beyond the pale. I just wanted out and an “emancipated minor” I became. And that status…well, was just another damn State sponsored fiction.
Politics and government policy be personal to me.
Lovely word/play of words describing other words also used to describe the same notion. Glad you make and share.
That’s very nice of you to say and much appreciated. And thanks for taking the time.
