American Digest - WHEN in the course of human Events, it becomes necessary....:
When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;
And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.
— YEATS
Say I'm weary,
Say I am old,
Say that health has missed me,
But add----
Peggy kissed me!

A Short History of Mass Shootings in Outline by Thomas Wictor - American Digest
A Short History of Mass Shootings in Outline by Thomas Wictor - American Digest: The Secret Service report on mass killings for 2016-17 noted that 64% had mental illness problems.[https://mentalillnesspolicy.org/wp-content/uploads/secret_service_64_attacks_MI.pdf] The Parkland shooter talked about voices telling him to do that. The shooter in Aurora had been recognized by his psychiatrist as schizophrenic and dangerous, but Colorado law, like many states precluded hospitalization until the chalk marks were around the bodies. See http://www.claytoncramer.com/scholarly/ColoradoMentalHealthReform-1.pdf. Patrick Purdy, who started the assault weapons panic in 1989, was diagnosed as paranoid schizophrenic after many convictions for felonies plea bargained down to misdemeanors by the DA who eventually wrote California’s AW ban. There are many other examples such as the Virginia Tech mass murder.

The Nuclear Option – Hot Swampy Heat: The Week Washington Officially Lost Its Collective Mind | Breitbart
The Nuclear Option – Hot Swampy Heat: The Week Washington Officially Lost Its Collective Mind | Breitbart: Again, this is why nobody trusts politics in America anymore. This is why people voted for�Donald Trump.
Mr. Trump�might be all these horrible things that people say about him. A loud, brutish, bullying narcissist. But at least he is NOT a Washington politician.
As for the charges against Michael Cohen,�Mr. Trump’s former lawyer claims�Mr. Trump�ordered him to pay a porn actress and a Playboy model for their silence. This, Mr. Cohen claims, is a violation of campaign finance. (Yeah, like Michael Cohen knows the first thing about campaign finance laws.)
And then�Mr. Trump�was not exactly forthcoming about it. Really?
Well, here is a NEWS FLASH: Donald J. Trump did pay a porn actress and a former Playboy model for their silence. And not a single person in all of America ever doubted that is exactly what happened from the first moment they heard about any of it.
And they don’t care! You know why?
Because at least�Donald Trump�still isn’t a dirty, self-dealing, dishonest Washington politician.

Curmudgeonly & Skeptical presents Boned Jello
Curmudgeonly & Skeptical presents Boned Jello:
You know that tingly little feeling you get when you really like someone?� That's common sense leaving your body.
I didn't make it to the gym today. That makes five years in a row.
I decided to stop calling the bathroom the “John” and renamed it the “Jim”. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.
Old age is coming at a really bad time.
When I was a child I thought “Nap Time” was a punishment.� Now, as a grownup, it feels like a small vacation.
The biggest lie I tell myself is..."I don't need to write that down, I'll remember it."
I don't have gray hair; I have "wisdom highlights"! I'm just very wise.
If God wanted me to touch my toes, He would've put them on my knees.
Last year I joined a support group for procrastinators. We haven't met yet.
Why do I have to press one for English when you're just going to transfer me to someone I can’t understand anyway?
Of course I talk to myself; sometimes I need expert advice.
At my age "Getting lucky" means walking into a room and remembering what I came in there for.
Actually I'm not complaining because I am a Senager. (Senior teenager) I have everything that I wanted as a teenager, only 60 years later. I don’t have to go to school or work. I get an allowance every month. I have my own pad. I don’t have a curfew. I have a driver’s license and my own car. The people I hang around with are not scared of getting pregnant. And I don’t have acne.
Life is great.
