Good morning and Happy Friday, News Viewers — I woke up with a song in my head, playing as clearly as if I had fallen to sleep with my ear pods in — I haven’t thought of this song for several centuries 🤩 but this morning, there it was, and I know why. 🎶”I’m gonna keep my sheep suit on ’til I’m sure that you’ve been shown that I’ve been trusted walkin’ these woods alone. . . ” 🎶
Harvey, Little Red Riding Hood might buy it, but grandma won’t — you’re better off in jail than anywhere near the Riding Hood Woods. . . .

Welcome to our free chat for Friday – I’d say there is plenty to talk about today and every day — I’ve been gone most of the week to D.C. and I’ll say this — driving from Ky to DC and back showed me that our country is looking a little on the shopworn decrepit side — YO, where did our amber waves and majestic purple mountains go? Let’s talk about it — whatcha got?
