Surveys show Americans are populist class warriors, except when they aren’t.
I don’t hate rich people. I don’t like the ones that don’t use their fortune for mankind. You cant take all that money with you when you die, you might as well spend it on a good cause.
So no appointments for me. I am still working on getting rid of this blasted cold. How dare my immune system not defend me. Im going to have a talk with my body about this. This will not due. Heal body heal!

I wish they would do a documentary about how Producers got started in the movie making...
Wow!

Valley Metro not Fare
New meeting about changing bus fare again. It should go down not up. Want to know why? Buses do not run on time, scary drivers employed, threat of constant stoppage of work due to bus riders unions contract expired….
Overall, you’re lucky I frequent your services. If I had a car, I would not take the bus.
