The beginning of our Years Of Lead?

 I got my practice in last night although I was quite tired. It went OK, and it's about time I move forward to the next couple of pages in the book. 

On the radio there's all kinds of news. Muskie the Muskrat has finished his purchase of Twitter, which I swore off of years ago when it became forever associated with that dangerous idiot Trump. Now that the Muskrat owns it, it will probably become the present-day Der Sturmer, the Nazi newspaper, distributed all over the Reich, that even the Nazis thought got too extreme at times. I say this because of course Orange Twitler will be allowed back on. In the same way that advertisers jumped to get on the Hitler bandwagon, I'm sure Twitter won't lose advertisers either. 

Also, apparently Amazon lost something like 20% of its stock value in one day. Gee, that's a big surprise, given they seem to be making it harder and harder - if possible at all - to use. I personally feel like it was a fad that was fun for a while, but I'm bored with it now. 

We've also had an assassin try to kill Nancy Pelosi, who fortunately was away from her house, and attacked her husband, Paul Pelosi who got injured but fortunately not killed. He, and political figures in general, are going to need some heavy-duty security from now on. Apparently Nancy's security detail was with her, in Washington, and there was no one guarding her family. They'll have to think in terms of a new world, one full of terrorists and assassins.

The once and future cornet

 The reason I dug the Connstellation out and replaced the errant screw and put in new water key corks is that last week I'd gone by Park...
