What the????????

It's Monday - blogger self imposed deadline.

What to blog, what to blog.

Voter ID? Solution in search of a problem. It's bullshit. You show an ID to register already. You sign the registration form. When you vote, you sign the rolls. If there were fraud, you'd expect there to be a record of signatures on rolls, not matching registration forms. Until someone shows widespread signature mismatch as evidence of people voting as not themselves, voter ID is bullshit. Total bullshit. The sad thing is, is that they know this.

Post split dating? I've found the phrase "So, how long since you've been divorced?" has replaced the college equivalence of "What's your major?" It's the question that will always get asked. Of course 6 years sounds a lot better than "Um, I'm undeclared."

NFL Free agency? Ted Thompson finally signed a big name this weekend. Julius Peppers. I think it's a decent signing. It'll also get the hyperbolic pinhead fans to quiet down until at least the draft. He'll be a situational guy, and TT did much better than the Broncos in getting talent for his money. $30 million for DeMarcus Ware? Glad I'm not a Bronco fan. Elway's going to fail again to buy a Super Bowl.

Baseball? Spring training, and opening day approaches. Really? Holy shit, I JUST am able to see my grass poking through the tundra.

Missing airline? Holy shit! No, really holy shit. Nobody knows anything. Terrorists with fake passports? Well, actually no. Most likely not. Bomb and it exploded over sea? Again, probably not. Now it's the pilots went rogue, depressurized cabin killing everyone? I don't even know what to say.

No more True Detective, but I came into this weekend, not missing the show. Weird.

In other words, I got nothing.
