   I’m skeptical about the Huntingdon England part

   Here’s to another year of goofs on infinite repeat!

   Actually it was a test on the report readers. Turns out the test itself didn’t exist, but the report writers were testing the readers to see if they called BS.

   When I was living in Vietnam, you could put your trash out whenever you wanted. There was no official trash removal service, but several unofficial brigades would happily cart it away (push carts). One day I put my trash in a used plastic mattress bag. The trash person looked at the pile, then dumped out all the trash on the ground and kept the bag. A few hours later the pile had been scoured through by others and there was nothing left.

   Kind of a subtle type humor. I’ll explain. Dinkle (the bald guy) did not like the fact that there was a crack in the wall. Normally, one might expect him to “solve” this situation by just moving the chair, which would not actually fix the crack, but work in a kind of lazy-man-fix-type of humorous way. Bolling takes that expectation and supplants it with Dinkle murdering some guy and putting him in the way of the crack. Now the crack is obscured, but not in the way you expected. And to think that there is a person who thinks a cadaver is less of a visual disturbance than a little crack seems pretty absurd, upsetting the norm. Hilarious!

   Look up the Qosh Tepa Canal project. Good for Afghans, bad for Uzbeks.

   I was really looking forward to not seeing this clown in cartoons and articles for the first time in ten years. Now have to wait until 2029.

    To your point about American’s being stupid. I saw many clips of voters saying “I am voting for Trump because of his Christian values.” The reason that Trump won is that people live in bubbles of misinformation that defy any shred of reality.
