Normally, I love snow. But these days, I have to do so much effing driving that I could do without the snow.

Plus, I no longer own a snow shovel. It broke a couple of years ago and I have not replaced it. It’s simply not on my radar except when I’m inside, staring out at the snow.

And what happened to all those little kids from days gone by who might shout out on a snowy day: “Hey, lady! Can we shovel your sidewalk for $40?!”

ME: “Yes! Yes, you can!!” (My sidewalk is over a block long….)

Anyway.

I gotta scoot soon, and before I leave, I still have some files to look over for the TV Pilot project — and just FYI: the Pilot script has to be completed by January 20th. If you don’t have your calendar handy, that’s twelve days away.

You might say that all this scrambling now is my fault, since I stepped away from the project for 6 months…. but we’re not going there right now.

Yesterday was a fantastic “news” day. Except for the fires, of course, but you know. Once they said the Getty Mansion was on fire — and the Getty Mansion was notorious for underground tunnels used for sex-trafficking women and children. You know, then you have to step back and wonder what is really going on. Even though it is horrible.

That aside, though, wow. What a day.

Here’s this from Mike King’s Anti-NY Times:

“Trump’s Epic Press Conference Performance

Commander Trump put on quite a show at the Mar a Lago “Winter White House”— and “the Editorial Board” at The Anti-New York Times is pleased to report, with a very high level of certainty, that this truly was him this time. The age was right, the height seemed right, the speaking style, the mannerisms, the quintessentially spontaneous Trumpian rambling etc. The Boss is back and he’s fixin’ to hit the ground running and hard.

Exactly as the headline says, Trump seemed “emboldened” on so many fronts — from reclaiming the Panama Canal, annexing Greenland, merging Canada into the United States, ending the “wars” in the Ukraine and the Middle East, Biden-bashing, exploding our level of energy production, killing the wind energy scam, bringing down grocery prices, ushering in the “Golden Age,” punishing migrants, sealing the border, threatening NATO, meting out justice to various Deep Staters and more. The Commander was on an absolute roll and, surprisingly (or rather, not so surprisingly if one understands the Q operation at work), the inquisitive reporters present (central casting types?) all seemed respectful and on point with their questions — thus further enhancing Trump’s stature as we approach the long-awaited end of “Term 2” (the “dash”) and the concurrent starts of the Storm and the Golden Age.
