I’ve been hunkered down under my desk, fingers laced over my head, for about a week now. I have no way of knowing what’s going on with the National Emergency, no radio, no phone. I’m scratching this out on a scrap of paper using my fingernail and the accumulated schmutz…
There they go again…those crazy, Earth-hugging Democrats proposing whack-a-doodle environmental legislation, forcing us into using only renewable energy, stopping the pollution of the water we drink and the air we breathe and embracing the scientific data on climate change by drastically reducing our contributions to it.

They all contain a homophonic of ‘wall’, which, in and of itself, is as relevant, helpful or effective as the idea that a nineteen hundred or twenty-two hundred…
