Fret not, there are cheeseburgers!

Yes, there is plenty to worry about......look around, you may have as many as 3 out of 6 of your current neighbors thinking about voting for Trump. Or, you have my sympathies, you may live in surroundings that have even more. My condolences.

Anyway, I'm here to suggest this is the end of times (in the biblical/cultish sense), and there is nothing we can do.  Yes, yes, you're correct: we can moblize, get the dems out to vote, convince Trump supporters they need some psych counselling, etc, but beyond that, there is little we can do. I the American people are going to go ape shit nuts, there is nothing we can offer in the way of paths to sanity. It's too far gone.  Sayonara.

What we can do, in our waning days, is have a decent cheeseburger.




So anyway, if your LDL is less than 120, have at it. Wait.....my attorney just called, forget that number. Believe what you want, but pay attention to any chest tightness, sweating, someone sitting on your chest, feelings of doom, etc. Don't call me, call 911. 

Cheers,
Mike

  1. Thankful (I think), I live in a community in which the covenants prohibit yard signs so I don't know who is voting from Trump. On the other hand, I don't know who I can trust to grill a good cheeseburger.

    1. Never eat one made by somebody with a slim waist. Clearly they can't be trusted.

  2. Damn, those look wonderful. I don't know a good cheeseburger place. I did have a lot of bacon last week. I'm worried.

    1. Ah, don't worry about bacon. Enough statins and you're fine.

  4. Not even a cheeseburger can cure living in a red state.

  7. I saw an article the other day and thought of you, Mike. There's a little town in Canada-Cape Breton, I think-that needs people to come and help it prosper. If you settle there, they will give you two acres to live on. I might go. If you smell cheeseburgers on the grill, stop on by.

    1. That made most of the major newspapers down here, too. Hell, I'll go, as long as I don't have to work and be the same retired slug as I am here.

  8. I have a friend who says he's thinking of moving to Canada if Trump wins. But lots of people make that threat and never follow through on it.

    1. I'd guess if Trump wins the Canadians are going to require a visa from us, and they'll be hard to get.
