living in interesting times

the democratic convention this week has been a purty stark contrast to all the doom, gloom, and pissed-off white people last week --- the speeches last night rocked the house

biden: "we are america, second to none, and we own the finish line."

bloomberg: "together, let's elect a sane, competent person."

obama: "that’s why anyone who threatens our values, whether fascists or communists or jihadists or homegrown demagogues, will always fail in the end."

finished wills' henry adams and the making of america, on a friend's recommendation --- was underwhelmed, but got a different overview of the first quarter of the nineteenth century


this little unit blooms twice a year --- love it -- gonna have four blossoms this time, six if i'm very lucky,
