Lack Of Posting

     I haven't posted much this week -- current events leave me struggling to keep up with the craziness of it all, from a Russian-inspired peace plan for Ukraine that's surrender in all but name to the Department of Defense* deciding the Scouts are no longer okay† to pal around with, it's an unending string of preposterous stuff, most of it at the hands of comic-opera boobs; or it would be comedy, if it wasn't all too real and therefore only sad at best to tragic at worst.

     You don't need me to point it out and mocking it is pointless.

* Congress named it, Congress renamed it, and if it wants to be renamed again, Congress is the only part of the Federal government that can do so.  If it wants to go by a tougher-sounding nickname in social settings until then, that's fine, but no one is obliged to go along.
 
† Yes, let's see, an organization for young people that is devoted to the notions of community service, patriotism, preparedness, physical fitness, outdoors and camping skills, respect for established institutions and competent adults, why would any decent military organization want anything at all to do with that?  Scouts have had their controversies but their aim remains noble.
