Donald Trump to everyone’s surprise has won the presidential election.  Hillary was more qualified, acted like an adult, and won the popular vote but Trump said what a lot of city whites secretly said in their hearts and rednecks openly believed.

My wife and a lot of liberals are outraged,   She keeps questioning me why I am not upset.  I think it’s because I’ve never been close to power or thought I could influence it.  I voted for Hillary and that was the most I could do.

Another reason is that Bob Marley is on my Pandora shuffle.  I’m getting in the mood for Jamaica on Brooke’s birthday cruise.  You can’t listen to Bob Marley without thinking about Rastafarianism.  Rastas believe that the world is going to end so you should do things to make life more pleasant like love, eat, and dance as much as you can.   Marijuana adds enhances these acts.

I don’t smoke weed and I’m not about to start.  I like the idea of not getting upset about macro problems.  The day after the election unpopular candidate is a macro problem.  If and when it trickles down to the people at my level is the time to get upset.

I’ve listened to the new Prairie Home Companion and they’ve kept a lot of the sketches.  Obviously no more news from Lake Woebegone and adventures of Guy Noir but all the actors except Garrison are there.

Chris will probably change the show but it sounds like he will take his time.  I won’t be able to hear bout the little town that time forgot but I still will be reminded about the soothing effects of ketchup.
