FUBAR
Today's word is FUBAR.
Definition: Fucked up beyond all recognition.
As in "This election cycle is FUBAR".
Electile Dysfunction
The inability to become aroused over any of the choices for President put forth by either party during an election year. If the condition lasts more than six weeks, you're screwed.
Also the title of a new book by Alan Dershowitz, which I have no interest in reading. I just like the title.
Trump Circle
Whatever else you may think of him, Donald Trump has fine instincts when it comes to real estate development.
A Different Kind Of "Game Of Thrones" Returns Next Sunday
"The Circus" resumes next Sunday, just in time for the Conventions.
Knowing When
After the Primary debates ceased to be fun anymore and I suspended my political campaign, I've been getting more and more excited about the upcoming NFL season.
Outside of rooting for my fellow Penn State alum Christian Hackenberg to get drafted by a decent team tonight, I care as much about the NFL Draft as I do about fantasy football. Which is zero.
With the almost-certainty of Jimmy Garoppolo playing quarterback for the New England Patriots while Tom Brady serves his four game regular season suspension, I can't wait for the new season to start.
NFL training camps will open in about ninety days, just after the Republican convention in Cleveland. TB12 will only have played his first couple of regular season games and we will have a good idea of whether or not this will be the "Fuck You" season that Patriots fans had hoped for last year, one that ends with another Super Bowl victory.
And not long after Brady returns from his suspension, we will finally know whether the next President of the United States will be Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump.
As it was for me during the late 1960s, I am once again blessed to live in interesting times.
