Well, I think I’m getting this blog setup to publish some of my ramblings and connect with y’all while we are sitting in our forts, probably drinking more than usual, and I’m not talking kool-aid. The missus and I did venture down to Sandy to get us some vittles today. It was really eerie driving off of the mountain and seeing very few cars coming up and going down except for, in typical fashion, some 4 wheel drive pickup asshole with Washington plates going by us at approximately 80 MPH based on my calculations. Anyhooo, once in “town” we proceeded to enter Safeway whereupon we went through our routines by first grabbing a handy wipe and sanitizing the handle on the cart and then making sure that no one was in six feet of us. When that poor 80 year old woman hobbled by us and the missus yelled at her to keep her social distance, I just cringed — JUST KIDDING, DEAR ( I made that up). Thank God they had some flour, because we haven’t seen any in stores for two weeks. Toilet paper still absentia. I’m going to check with tRump Enterprises and see when that tRump TP (“Excellent, Fantastic, Awesome for your rump wipe”) will be available. Hopefully, Amazon will be carrying it. Back to the flour, y’all know we are 70 somethings on fixed income, so until that check with Donny’s signature comes, we’ll have to be baking bread everyday, and being able to get flour was the highlight of our day.
So, yesterday I sent a little teaser to my friends about my upcoming blog and mentioned that I was cooking some Rancho Gordo beans and cornbread for our evening dining experience. Oh my god, can I say orgasmic. Domingo Rojos heirloom beans with a few aromatics and some other stuff I added (trade secret) and a yeasted corn bread. Bring on COVID-19, we’re eating some good shit every night. This was accompanied by a very nice Stave and Stone Merlot, recently gathered at the winery. Here you go, start salivating my comrades.
Now to the good stuff. Did you see that f…ing pillow guy at the “Daily Coronvirus (China Virus) Briefing” (political campaign TV rally)? What a tool.
Do y’all think Very Pathetic Mike Penis is a little annoyed at this guy having the stage to kiss tRumps ass more than he was able to? I also heard today that Donny now is saying that 240,000 Americans could die before this over and it’s going to be a “very, very painful two weeks”. Wait a minute, I thought he and his lemmings told us in February it was just a little flu and just like that it will be all gone. Oh well, what does that Dr. Fauci know anyway.
Well, I need to go pour myself another glass of wine and think about what I will do tomorrow. Oh, I know, same shit, different day. With that, my comrades, have a sweet dreamful evening and stay healthy. Ziggyman, over and out.

And now Kellyanne is saying COVID was “unanticipated” and Trump is handling it so well after being caught by surprise. Is that supposed to erase all the downplaying he did in Jan and Feb? It was only “unanticipated” because he ignored all the giant blinking red lights and staff alerting him about the virus.
Never mind that he fired the pandemic response team put in place to prepare for something like this. Gotta drain the swamp, I guess.

Totally agree. Had the “stable genius” and his top notch team listened to the experts in January we probably would not be in the situation we are currently experiencing.
