ADD

poor georgie’s almanack:
 
George:  Why can’t I finish anything today? 
 
Do you think it's ADD?
 
Susan:  Nope, I think it's AGE.

Thinking of you today.
Found a wine for all our seasons and all our reasons.

First

poor georgie's almanack:

.First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist
Then they came for the Socialists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist
Then they came for the trade unionists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist
Then they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew
Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me

This entire quote by Protestant pastor Martin Niemöller (14 January 1892 – 6 March 1984) can be found on the internet.

poor georgie’s almanack:

Will we go back to minor miners?

poor georgie’s almanack:

By 62-36 vote, Iowa House approved 2-yr-olds’ use of real guns.

Will sending kids back to the mines be next?
