I wasn't going to blog will I was on my Class Reunion Odyssey, but I ran across some content on the Internet that I just couldn't resist. I hope you'll bear with me. Later today I'll continue my FB posts about my Class reunion.

BEARDS

"Growing a beard can free up time. Experts tabulated that the average clean-shaven man spends the equivalent of about 140 days of his life shaving." Hints from Heloise, Omaha World Herald, 5/13. I'm able to use all that extra time blogging.

CRIMINAL MINDS

"JETBLUE passenger who blew nose into blanket faces $10,500 fine." Drudge Report, 5/13.

THERE IS NO PLACE LIKE AUSTRALIA

"Mice 'raining' from sky as 'biblical plague' sweeps Australia." Drudge Report, 5/13

LIKE FLORIDA

"Florida woman, 28, allegedly dressed a student at Miami HS to promote Instagram account." Fox News, 5/13

LIKE OKLAHOMA

"Oklahoma Gov. Stitt hosts barbeque beside PETA billboard slamming him for declaring 'meat week.'" Fox News, 5/13

LIKE NEBRASKA

"Animal guts spilled on a stretch of Interstate 80 in Omaha creating dangerous driving conditions THU evening." Omaha World Herald, 5/14. This could be part of our governor's efforts to promote meat.

COVID

"Schools ditching student mask requirement." Drudge Report, 5/13

"You often hear the argument, “Biden wears a mask to set an example.” Okay, an example for whom? Which Americans are going to start acting recklessly if they see Biden in an Oval Office meeting without his mask? Who is the anti-masker out there who’s going to change his mind because Biden keeps wearing his mask, five months after getting his second shot?" Jim Geraghty, National Review Online, 5/13

"MSNBC reportedly sought paid attendees for 'Vaccinating America' town hall special featuring Dr. Anthony Fauci." Fox News, 5/13

POLITICAL POTPOURRI

"Biden proposes $2 trillion bill to study what's causing inflation rates to rise." Babylon Bee

"In hard-hitting press conference, press demands to know Biden's favorite Disney princess." Babylon Bee

"It is not a lie that countless votes were tallied in November 2020 that should not have been. It is not a lie that many norms were abandoned as laws were amended in haste, sacrificed on a flimsy altar of COVID urgency. It is not a lie that this gives rise to proper skepticism about the reliability of the result in several states. Judges in state courts were never going to find provable, demonstrable evidence of countable illegal votes that would flip states, but the U.S. Supreme Court punted the opportunity to examine the constitutional basis for finding fault with the totals." Mark Davis, Townhall, 5/13

LANGUAGE & THE LEFT

"One of the reasons I rejected the Left, long ago, was that they were always telling you how to talk. They were always saying what you could say and not say. They were language cops. The American rebel in me says: Get stuffed." Jay Nordlinger, NRO, 5/13
