So true...and THIS is why the RUM may be gone.
Didn't get anything accomplished on the novel this week. I blame these two.
After the
Fiction writing just can't hold a candle to this...seriously.
So without further adieu
The gist of the whole business being after Trump wined him and dined him (Comey) in private, his version of 69'ing him involved a strong suggestion...er...hope that Comey could see clear to dropping the whole Flynn investigation...to which Comey insisted
"I'm NOT that kind of an FBI guy"
(but thanks for the candlelit dinner)
and took his leave
and made notes of the entire sordid exchange
Just in case.
Feeling a bit sullied himself, after all...I bought you dinner, Trump regaled the twitterverse with
"You better hope I didn't tape last night"
Then being rebuffed...and tiny handed...and orange...he sacked the guy.
That is right...FIRED.
Pink Slipped.
Goodbye.
(...a Presidential: Put Out or WALK, if you will....)
So Comey took his notes and gave them to a friend
who had a friend
that conveniently worked for the NY Times.
But wait...there is more....
On Wednesday Comey wrote a memo detailing the entire bloody exchange.
On Thursday he testified UNDER OATH about what happened.
And on Thursday Donald Trump did not utter one tweet...which was kind of abnormal for him.
Maybe they shut the WH WIFI off...or duct-taped his tiny hands together???
By Friday he was back to blovinating and blustering
I've Clearly Won
And both sides are now demanding the release of all notes and any tapes if they exist.
Mueller and Counsel are preparing microscopes to go up asses.
(...this is gonna hurt...)
Trump has lawyered up.
Donnie has promised to testify under oath...
YES!!!!!
Because we know he has no trouble lying under oath...and if/when he does this time it will be the beginning of the end of Tinyhands McBigmouth.
Incidentally, while we were busy watching the show and eating our popcorn- the GOP has been trying to overturn Dodd-Frank and to pass the TRUMPCARE monstrosity.
"Don't pay any attention to those men behind the curtain"
I think we are going to need more popcorn.
but enough of that.
Chris' Certification arrived this week along with his card!
James found a nice Fox-Body Mustang to ease the sting of owning a Mini-Van
( He and Nicole's Date Night Car) and Aiden LOVES it.
A Car-Guy in the making...at 3 years old.
Nicole has been poolside as The Summer Pool Babe this season again...gainfully employed...and Emma finished up softball. Brenden's baseball season ends Tuesday.
Lennon up this coming week and getting the last minute details attended to here...and planning some " the whole family" time!
Can't wait!
North Patio Beach getting a serious workout this week...the weather has been PERFECT.
Which segways nicely into this weeks book
A NEW novel by Michael Crichton.
DRAGON TEETH
(...how the hell...he died in 2008???)
A true labor of love by his wife Sherri Crichton- who resurrected the written but never released manuscript...and published it...his name intact.
In my favorite format Historical Fiction.
A fictional tale interwoven with the true story of Marsh and Cope...two palaeontologists who had an extreme and sometimes violent decade long rivalry in the late 1800's.
A beyond the grave treat for Crichton fans in his inimitable "voice" (style)
Well worth the read.
Also saw Amazing Amazon...er...no.. no...Bodacious Broad....er...still no...Wonder Woman...that's it...this week.
Maybe she holds the answer to the Trump Problem. We just need a Lasso of Truth.
Back to Virtual Hawaii and a few things left that I want to see there before the end of this month...as well as finishing up my painting soon.
More anon!
