Well, it's about here folks

Wednesday was my 65th birthday. That was the magic number. I retire next Wednesday. A lifetime of work finally done. I get to do what I want now. And that very well may include moving to California. And yes, I already know. Those people are crazy. Batshit crazy. But that's where the family is, and that's where they will be staying. So it's either go there or see them a couple times a year. And family is everything. So it's off to California we go.


I was going to write today about how great this country is finally doing. How the eight years of nightmare are over and it's morning in America again. How ludicrous our fake internet doc was yesterday telling us how Republican policies are always bad for America, or something to that effect. I only skim his bloviating gaseous excretions and remember seeing that phrase, but to find it and quote it exactly would mean actually reading that scatology and frankly I couldn't bear to do that.


And I don't need to tell you any of this anyway. You all see it. All of America sees it. Economy booming. Jobs jobs jobs. Wage growth. Record levels of low unemployment for blacks and Hispanics. We haven't seen anything like this since Ronald Reagan woke up America some 35 years ago. And the democrat/communists are still telling lies about that, telling us how terrible all that prosperity actually was. Same as they are today. But you know, if that's all you got.....


But what the hell. I'm in a pretty good mood today. I'm finishing up a job that pretty much sucked. Working for the gubbment. When I took this job I didn't expect much, and I've never been disappointed. Lousy pay, lousy management, low expectations and the goal is to spend as much taxpayer money as humanly possible. But I stuck it out. At my age your options begin to fade so I was pretty much stuck. But in a few days, it's all over.


For me retirement from this lousy job is much like what our country is experiencing. Years of darkness, gloom, lies, leadership that cares little about us. Politics rule the day. We had a president for eight years who never had the best interest of our country in mind. Terrible leadership, terrible policies, bad ideas motivated by bad ideology. Same in my job.


But now, there's a light at the end of the tunnel. America has a President who loves this country. And is doing everything he promised. Everything we elected him to do. And starting next week I don't have to suffer the indignities of a job that sucks and all that entails. There's a light at the end of that tunnel for me.


So, good times ahead. For you, for America and for me. Even if I end up in California. I'll be with my family and get to enjoy my four year old grandson.


And I want to add this. My grandson's parents are liberals. No doubt about it. They don't like our President. But they sent pictures of my grandson at his preschool fourth of July parade. And they were all wearing red white and blue. And waving the American flag. And singing patriotic songs. And they sent pictures of the fourth of July party they went to with all their liberal friends. Flags everywhere. Red white and blue everywhere. So there's hope. They still love this country. We may disagree on a lot, but not that. And I suspect there's a lot more of them than the commie America hating godless lefties that are making all the noise and making us think that's who they all are. It's not. They're not all partisan hacks like our fake internet doctor friend. So maybe we'll all just get along as Rodney King once said.


So, I'll still be writing blogs here, whether I'm here or in California as long as Kevin allows me to. And next week, no more alarm clock. How about that?
