CAT Tracks for January 17, 2017
"WHAT'D I MISS?" |
One of the songs from 'Hamilton'...
...sung by Thomas Jefferson when he returned to America and was chosen by George Washington as the nation's first Secretary of State...
...having been in France during the revolution.
Well, it certainly should come as no surprise that I would use music to introduce a CAT Tracks "catch-up" edition containing the "For Subscribers Only" posts that I sent out by e-mail while my local Internet provider was down.
So, again, without further ado...
From: Ron Newell
I think CAT Tracks has been "Trumped"...
...or else hacked by his Russian friends.
Woke up this morning...
...to a dead local Internet connection.
Then tried to use my back-up iPhone hotspot...
...which allows me to send and receive e-mail, access to Yahoo! and YouTube, but not other websites.
All I can figure is that I offended The Donald with my recent posts and he's shutting me down.
After I post this, which may well be my last, I think I'll see if I can access Twitter...
...'twould be the final proof, the smoking gun as they say...
...if I get access, but can only receive, not send.
Well, shut my mouth!!!
The end of CAT Tracks days is near? Here???
From: "Ron Newell"
Okay, I tried Twitter...
... no access, no "smoking gun".
But...
I'm still leaning toward the "Trumped" theory for not being able to access the CAT Tracks website.
The Donald probably shut me down on Twitter too, figuring that his pearls of wisdom would fall on deaf ears.
Well, he's certainly right about that...
...both literally and figuratively!
So, until we meet again...
...or not.
Byeeeeeeeeeee...
From: Ron Newell
I'm sorry, I can't help myself...
...'tis my catty nature!
When I saw the headline/read the story below...
...my reaction was: "But, of course!"
I mean...
...why does one go to the circus? For the elephants, the clowns, the jugglers, et al.
But...
...who's gonna pay money to go see such acts, when you can sit at home in front of your television every damn day/night and watch the Republicans, The Donald, and Kellyanne Conway!
So...
Ladies and gentlemen gather 'round and witness the biggest and baddest circus you have ever seen...
...beginning (officially, and you've gotta admit that the previews have been a hoot)...
...at high noon on January 20th!
Don't forget the peanuts, popcorn, and Cracker Jacks...
...the latter referring to the snack food, not the old white male billionaires who will serve as the ringmasters/department secretaries!!!
