I realize I feel terrible. I realize that’s coloring how I post. So if you wanna just pass this on by without reading it, I won’t be offended, but I do have a gripe. I’m trying not to be affected by these commercials for animals that are out in the cold where they show me animals being snowed on or animals out in the heat with flies, crawling all over them And I wonder did I need to see that or did they need to just rescue those animals and tell me what kind of conditions they were found in because it’s just disgusting that they were used in a guilt campaign because what else is it? I know I’m supposed to send money because it’s the holiday and my plate is full and I’m surrounded by love and happiness and family and food and these poor animals don’t know where their next meal is coming from. I’ve been in rescue a long time. Sympathy adoptions don’t last. Let him throw a blanket over the cold ones let them shoo the flies and rescue the ones that are out in the heat, but I don’t need to see it before they do. Some of the ones I rescued were in homes and being treated pretty badly one cat in particular. OK, that’s it. I feel better.

Morning Gutter Gang. No walking this morning for yours truly. Our afternoon thunder showers have started just a little early today. Oh well, maybe later.
But I have something to share this morning to mark a birthday of a great talent that was lost far too soon. Robin Williams would've been 75 years old today; he passed just about 12 years ago. There are so many TV and movie clips and stand up appearances to share, how about this short one. Another short one? (That's what she said)
No intro, just have a laugh or smile and enjoy
Hey hockey fans -
Legendary Hall of Famer Gordie Howe is the only person to play professional hockey in six different decades. Nicknamed "Mr. Hockey, "Gordie Howe is the only player in hockey history to appear in professional games across six different decades: the 1940s, 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s. Howe first began his career with the Detroit Red Wings in 1946. After briefly retiring in 1971, Howe returned to play alongside his sons in the World Hockey Association before finishing his NHL career with the Hartford Whalers. In 1997, at age 69, he signed a one-day contract with the Detroit Vipers, becoming the only person to play professional hockey in six separate decades.
And the heat goes on— Good morning to all.

I have often opined that the birth of the United States did not really happen on July 4, 1776. It happened during 1787 and 1788 with the drafting and ratification of the United States Constitution. That was when our country built its foundation.
Interestingly, two of the greatest thinkers and writers of the time were outside of the United States during the Constitutional Convention. John Adams and Thomas Jefferson had been dispatched to England and France, respectively, to try to pacify the world’s two greatest powers. Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay took advantage of the situation to try to advance their plan for a strong federal government. Little did they know the opposition to their plan was widespread.
——
For political reasons, Hamilton met with the Virginia delegation ahead of time and had their young governor, Edmund Randolph, propose what became known as the Virginia Plan. ...
