WHERE TO START?

Maybe here:  Somewhere in the fabulous 60's, I marched with Dr. King down Commonwealth Avenue through Kenmore Square to Columbus Avenue.  Not sure what happened next but am very clear about doing it even to the point of knowing what jacket I wore since it was cold.  Pretty clear this has jogged my mind because today is MLK day. I am also very mindful about what is and what is not leadership/being a role model.  Just saw Obama on the David Letterman new Netflix show.  If you want to see what a leader looks like (even forgetting what he says and whether you agree with him) check out the show. Obama led and was nuanced and had BIG ideas about what we are as a people.  POTUS not so much--very SAD. Just sayin'.

Here goes:
--"A person , a dog, and 100 chickens die in a fire".  A direct quote from the Globe featured in a small story.  A dog and chickens sharing the lead with a human.  OMG.  At least, once every edition, we are treated to what seems to be an important story about animals while they send no reporters farther then route 128 to cover happenings in the bigger world.
--Do not know where this is from:  POTUS plays whack-a-mole not chess.  Right on target.
--Anybody see Jake Tapper and that creep Miller go at it?  Miller scares me.
--When did the word "bombogenesis" come from and who invented it.  The Weather Channel folks virtually pee in their pants at the prospect of yet another disastrous storm.  Unseemly.
--I believe Dick Durbin and not that twerp Cotton from Arkansas.  Cotton is a rigid "I wanna be President" type who apparently has some smarts and is vitriolic in his desire to return to the good old days, get rid of those "other" immigrants, and undo Health care.
--Saw a quote from a Norwegian something like this:  We have universal health care and free college, Mr. President, why would I come to America?
(Sneaking this in:  Happy Birthday to anyone out there about to celebrate their 70th)
--Do you know that the USA has more Ethiopian doctors than Ethiopia?  Maybe the next time you are in an ER and dying, you should ask where the MD is from.  You should definitely ask the maintenance staff because I am almost 100% sure they are immigrants--legal or otherwise. Also means it is not a good idea to get sick in Ethiopia.
--BTW, if you are not a Native American, you and your ancestors are immigrants--legal or otherwise.
--But, but, they were not from shit hole countries and they did not look different and they spoke the right language. My ancestors were from shit hole countries, did look different, and wrongly spoke Yiddish.
--Puerto Rico is still a mess and its post hurricane treatment by POTUS was majorly different that the post hurricane treatment of Houston. It is an island, ya know.
--His Haiti comments just happened on the 8th anniversary of the devastating earthquake.
--Great and, yet again, a depressing article in the NY Times about the National Park in Utah being reduced in size to exactly the size recommended by uranium mining companies.  Another coincidence.
--And the members of Congress who let this shit go on and say nary a word need to move on.  Pretty pathetic that I find Romney a welcome sight.
--Ten months to the mid-terms.
