If only I had some clever way of conveying that I'm an FDR Democrat living in Huntsville, Alabama. It's almost as confusing as photographing a rodeo on Friday and singing Mozart's "Requiem" on Sunday. Tenor or Bass. I can sing either one but I can't read music. You can ask me an air traffic control question but you'll probably regret it. But wait! There's more! P.S Please, no tipping. The retirement check you send me is enough. Thank you.

On this Labor Day, remember the unions who pushed for 8 hour work days and weekends off in the first place. Those used to not be a thing! #photography #Flickr #FlickrFriday Photography is Art. I'm firmly convinced of that. Here are some amazing photos from Nikon's 2019 Small World Microscope competition that blew me away. First, the cross-section of a tulip bud by Andrei Savitsky: Next, the exquisite fluorescent photo of a turtle embryo which took fi #politics #publicpolicy #InflationReductionAct #CHIPSAct #PaulKrugman #JoeBiden #Georgia -- There's even a term for it.

ICYMI, you can't make this stuff up. P.S. The reason the Right hates Rachel? Because she's so good at her job. Ditto for Krugman, AOC, Pelosi, Hillary and anybody else they latch on to (Mueller, Fauci, , Garland, etc.). They hate anybody that is effective at pointing out th #photography #sunrise #Huntsville The Truth Hurts
If you live in #Alabama , you need to read this. If you don't want to be like Alabama ( #Mississippi , #Georgia , #TheSouth ) you should read it too. The truth hurts. I'm a #Democrat , and it hurts me too. A lot. History You Don't Want to Repeat
While I'm in the mood today, here's a reminder that seems pertinent: Don't try to persuade stupid people with reason. (If you don't know that Bonhoeffer was a German priest executed by Hitler...Wikipedia is your friend.) I remember when the Republicans tarred and feathered Dan Rather too. Now, look how that turned out. The man is a national treasure.
