In my town here in WA it’s the deer. One of the things they never show you in the “cute animals” pix is the poop. My yard is covered in deer poop, and now it’s gonna be on main street too (not my photo but it’s from a couple of days ago).

I can still hear Ned Beatty’s character on Homicide saying, “Detective Munch.”

This (from the Wikipedia article on the character) is just staggering:

The character of Munch has appeared in a total of ten series on five networks since the character’s debut in 1993. Apart from Homicide and SVU , however, Belzer’s performances as Munch were guest appearances or crossovers rather than regular or recurring appearances. With Munch’s retirement in the character’s 22nd season on television, he was a regular character on U.S television longer than Marshal Matt Dillon ( Gunsmoke ) and Frasier Crane ( Cheers and Frasier ), both of whom were on television for 20 seasons. Munch’s return to help his friends in the SVU seventeenth-season episode “Fashionable Crimes” marks the 23rd season that the character has appeared on television in any capacity.

P.T.? We have friends on the canal -near Brinnon- that deal with herds of elk roaming their street.

Yep, Port Townsend.

Hmm. It almost looks like Texas. Including the deer scat. Suburban neighborhood and a pretty sizable herd that comes by once a week or so to hang out and fertilize.

Cancel cable if you want to hit Fox News where it hurts. I did ten years ago.If you want cable, ask your cable provider to drop Fox from your bundle. Or find one who does.

[“Trump is likely to address his call for a $2 trillion infrastructure investment (it’s always infrastructure week) in the fourth phase of the coronavirus relief package, which he [tweeted about this morning”].

Complete with total robot workforce.

We killed the TV portion of our provider. We do need the router for the net but that is it. Net only. I get fairly limited stuff on Hulu for TV viewing.

Or Jerry Falwell Jr, who has made such a spectacular model of Covid-19 transmission at Liberty U.

Even Upchuck Toad announced that they were going to “dip in and out” of the presser to give viewers the relevant parts.

Mayhaps MSNBC is finally catching on to Trump’s reelection ploy.

Maybe Trump will bring out one of those crackpots who hawks cold coins? Or some reverse-mortgage con-man to tell all the old folks that they should cash in their houses now before they all die? Those two industries are kind of the go-to for right-wing scam artists, aren’t they?

I can envision Trump being attacked by the goat overlords (except these ones are only about a month old, tops).

I want to hear the 300,000 cases part of the Rally.

That will be the number he has to deal with by Fri. And all that go with those 300,000.
