DON'T SWEAT THE BIG STUFF; it's virtue-signaling that really matters.
A LESSON FOR LIBERALS: How Intelligence Works. Obama made a hash of our intelligence services over the last 8 years; the question is whether or not Trump & Pence are enough Reagan-like to restore it over the next 4 to 8 years.

THE ZOMBIE VOTE IS BEING SUPPRESSED: 36,635 dead lose their right to vote in West Virginia. Apparently the Americans with Disabilities Act [ADA] doesn't apply to the 'living challenged'.
AMMO GRRRLL on Hollyweird's Crazy Christians.
ONLY GOVERNMENTS should be allowed to 'drop' rocks.

Kudos to Ms. Wu for acknowledging The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, but she really should have read it. If she had, she might recognize that (a) you don't 'drop rocks' from the moon (except perhaps on her own foot), and that (b) governments, not corporations, are the worst offenders in terms of 'dropping rocks'.
SPRING IS SPRINGING: This is the first (from Georgia) in my annual spring flowering marathon.


The view is from outside my 'office' window, looking down toward the property association pond. No buds in sight yet, but the trees along the east side of the house are just beginning to blossom, so these won't be too far behind. Look for the pond and hill beyond it to slowly disappear.
SEEN ON OUR LOCAL CHURCH: "Don't judge others just because they sin different than you."
NO. NEXT QUESTION: Is the American elite really elite?
LAST CARD (taken from this cartoon):

MAPPING WHAT YOU CAN'T SEE: the most accurate map of dark matter ever created.

It's really quite simple: what you can't see is where what you can see isn't.
A MOST DISHONEST TWEET: Sayeth Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-MO) on Twitter:
I’ve been on the Armed Services Com for 10 years. No call or meeting w/ Russian ambassador. Ever. Ambassadors call members of Foreign Rel Com.
When caught, McCaskill claimed that there was insufficient room in the 140-character limit to add 'one-on-one' (1-1) before the word 'call' in the tweet. Except that the tweet itself is 142 characters (count 'em).
