Where did all the Macintosh apples go?
MacIntosh, nice and crisp, sweet, good tasting apple. Used to be most common in supermarkets. Something happened and now all the markets have are apples with weird names. And the weird name apples are mealy, not much crisp to them, not very sweet. A low speed apple. Bring back the MacIntoshes.
Gloves, color there of
Now that Fall is upon us and it's getting cold, I see Trump wearing gloves to keep his hands warm. Only Trump wears black leather gloves, that make his hands nearly invisible. Trump uses his hands while speaking, gestures and the like. Except we cannot see the hand gestures. I recommend that Trump get himself a lighter colored pair. Nice tan deerskin gloves like I wear for skiing and for driving.

Are there any never-Biden democrats??
There ought to be. It's obvious to anyone that Biden is too old, too frail, and too confused to make a good president. His spoken plans, green new deal, ending fossil fuels, another national wide lockdown, more free stuff, terrible tax hikes. spell economic catastrophe. If he dies in office, or gets booted via 25th amendment, Kamala Harris, the ultimate far lefty becomes president.
Surely there are some democrats who fear this enough to withhold a Biden vote, or even, gulp, vote for Trump. Could there be as many as 1%? Or even 5%?

Postmark? What Postmark?
All this talk about ballots postmarked by election day make me wonder. And a court case about ballots that come in without a date. I get a lot of mail. Some of it doesn't have a post mark at all. Some of it has a post mark, but no date. The ones that went thru a Pitney Bowes postage meter have a date in the postmark. How does one make sure his ballot gets a postmark with a date?
The date in the Pitney Bowes postmark is the date the company processed that batch of bulk mail. Want to bet that mail doesn't get to the real post office for a day or two after the company processed it? Or more?
A lotta trashing of political opponents happening
Scanning down my Facebook feed I get a Yuge number of political ads. Most of which explain why the opponent is a no-good-nick. OK, and I read them, but I figure the charges are over rated, if not down right false. Nobody is running ads of the "If elected I will do this and that and the other thing to make your lives better." It is easier to believe campaign promises. As it is, if we elect any of these turkeys we have no idea what they might do in office. Sad.
