If .........

Stability. Safety. Synergy.

1. If the U.S. presidential election were to be moved to this Friday 19 July 2024, voters will go for it because they know which party they will vote for. They’ve always known. They knew last week, last month, last year or after 6 January 2021 when the current president was officially confirmed.

2. If the U.S. presidential election were to be moved to this Friday 19 July, guess-work companies (polls) will go out of business.

3. If the U.S. presidential election were to be moved to this Friday 19 July, it will upset plans by former plantation states like Georgia to make voting difficult for some voters.

4. If the U.S. presidential election were to be moved to this Friday 19 July, the ‘Genius’ Georgia GOP co-conspirators in the State of Georgia v. Donald John Trump indictment, will be sucked out of the House and Senate.

Dream on. I’m not dreaming. It’s called a scenario. Honestly though, look at it this way. Voting is like baking. A cake is ready to eat as soon as it comes out of the oven. Sorry. It must cool down first. Coating it with coconut flakes, chocolate, fresh cream or pseudo cream or fruit on top is window dressing. It is still a cake.

Americans have baked the cake they will serve on 5 November 2024. They don’t care about guess-work polls, debates and opinions of experts who live in glass houses.

Elections And Political Bullies

-

Forget democracy.   It should be called political bullying. We are watching it in the prelude to the Canadian election on the 19 th of October, 2015.   Americans have also started their political bullying for the looming presidential election next year. So many trees wasted on books about democracy.   Some countries have big budgets for invading other countries ‘ to defend democracy’ but it is seldom practised in campaigning for elections.   Calling opponents names and printing flyers attacking each other is behaviour that will not be tolerated in kindergarten, but it is all legal, in campaigning.   It is irritating and such a let-down to the whole notion of democracy.   Grown-up men and women behaving like Grade One kids. It is also misleading because many voters believe it is real hatred.   Don’t let that fool you.   These politicians play golf together, attend the same dinner parties, eat and drink at the same social events, share jokes and cut deals in parliament.   They

Comfort Food As Regret Food

Chicken curry. Comfort food is good for the soul, which usually bleeds in winter from icy roads, bad drivers that want to annihilate pedestrians, frozen fingers and toes that take a sabbatical.   What happened to my toes?   I thought I was wearing special socks for boots? We therefore have a right to comfort food which throws doctors’ orders out of the window and has no loyalty to calories.   No calculator on the table, thanks very much.   Piece of bread 5 calories, half a banana 10 calories, sugar-free cheesecake 2,000 calories.   Ah! Ah!  We only live once. Naw!   Comfort food is old school food with its compulsory second helping.   It involves licking fingers and giving a big sigh, about the good life, which is shelter, food, love and debt.   The problem is the zip.   The jeans remind you that comfort food can also be called you will regret food .   Home sweet home is even sweeter in winter after surviving blowing snow and bumper to bumper traffic. What is more welcoming th

No Air Miles

I don’t have Air Miles.   I’m considering putting that on a T-Shirt because I cannot go to the drugstore (chemist) or coffee shop without the cashier asking me if I have air miles. We waited for about two minutes the other day, while this guy looked for his Air Miles card in his overweight wallet.   For what?   For a few points. I don’t have air miles because Mathematics is a foreign language.   I was never good in numbers. That is why I squashed the idea of being an investment banker very early in life.   I understand you can invest in cornfields before the soil is turned up or pork bellies even before a baby pig is born. That is how I view air miles, investing in tomorrow or the unknown.   I’m the dumb one.   Some people understand this air miles’ thing so well, I overheard one customer saying: I can even convert my points into cash. Points and air miles are the same thing in Canada and the U.S.   Drugstores or clothing stores even give you a card to collect point
