   Most donuts at donut shops cost easily more than a dollar.

   They’re on their homeymoon. We missed the wedding.

   Oh Scott, just imagine if Trumpy the indicted former president had showed up! What a scene that would have been!

   I pray that when the writers and actors strike is over SNL does a dream sequence with Trump at the “Republican” “Debates”.

   And yes, it needs the double quotes.

   This was an old joke my old Infantry Viet-Nam era Drill Sergeant used to hit us with.

   “Where you from, Private?”

   (in a squeaky voice) “Detriot, Drill Sergeant”

   (in a THOUROUGHLY disgusted voice) “Deee-troit? What part of Georgia is THAT in? Do push-ups, Private. Until I get tired.”

   Your answer is the one I always wanted to use, thanks for playing along!

   Ayup.

   Other workers Gary was concerned for:

   Fire wood gathers. Whale oil lamp sellers. Train conductors. Morse code telegraphers. Bell boys. Shoe shine boys. Door to door salesmen. Jukebox repairmen.

   It is time to move on, Gary. Your concern for these men and women is honorable but we need to retrain them, not protect a job whose day is passing. We have time to find a way to make sure that there are jobs open and available that they are qualified for.

   Not just ignore that the world changes, like it or not.

   I’m afraid it’s more wide-spread than that.

   Increase the number of Congressmen and Senators.

   The Constitution says 1:30,000 souls for the House. That was changed in 1912 and is now 1:768,353 or so. Individually we have virtually NO representation in Congress.

   Looking at an American population of just over 334 million we would have a House of about 11,150 members. This sounds like a huge, unwieldy number.

   With the technology available today we COULD and SHOULD return the House to its Constitutionally mandated size and still be able to function effectively.

   We should also move the US Capitol itself out of Washington DC and drop it somewhere like St. Louis or Kansas City, in the center of the nation. Build an erect an entirely new structure built specifically to accommodate a restored US House of Representatives.

   While we’re at it we may as well also increase (or discuss eliminating) the US Senate.

   And heck, let’s also grant statehood to Washington DC, Puerto Rico and the other US territories.

   Is this drastic enough for you?

    What bothers me is how goComics fails to do anything about his name.
