  1. Don't look now, but both of you are pundits, 2 members of the punditocracy that I'm paying attention to. Don't pretend you're not, just because you may not hew the line of certain other pundits doesn't mean you're not one. (I, personally, am a member of the pundocracy, but that's because I tell more than my fair share of puns... can't help it; blame my father, a notorious and yet much loved pun maven... but I digress), And another thing; you say that Biden NEEDS progressive voters or we're doomed, DOOMED! To FOUR MORE MORE YEARS of Cadet Bone Spurs!! Not so, grasshoppers; the way things are going now, what with the pandemic and all, I think an empty cigarette pack could beat Don the Con. Personally, I think if Bernie's ideas were so popular, he would've scored more votes in the primaries... and have you noticed: he didn't! So, by by Senator BS! PS- I still like you guys even if I don't agree with you. -L. PPS- We're doing book picks? How could I have forgotten my book pick? "GLOBAL CRISIS by Geoffrey Parker; subtitle: War, Climate Change & Catastrophe in the 17th Century" (a real barn burner)... also: THE DOG OF THE SOUTH, by Charles Portis, who so recently passed on. This book is a very fine shaggy dog story AND has no connection to my previous pick but hey: sometimes you just have to back off from too much news about reality and all its fetid bottom-of-the-shoe crud. Shaggy Dog Story (for them what doesn't know): a long, rambling story or joke, typically one that is amusing only because it is absurdly inconsequential or pointless.
