Electronics, Politics, Sports


Congratulate Fiorella. She finally learned how to view email posts she's sent. It was obvious how to do it in the old gmail, but took a lucky accident to discover how to do it in the new set up. On the other hand, she still doesn't know anything about texting and translating on her iPhone but the rudimentaries, and she still doesn't even know the rudimentaries about moving a picture from her iPhone to her blog, as you may have noticed.

Fiorella drove over to Starbucks yesterday morning because she needed to get out of the house and think things over. Also because coffee shops are historically where all political uprisings are promulgated, and she is determined to DO SOMETHING that will save the nation--or at least Texas. While she was waiting for her hot chocolate and chocolate-chip cookie (the traditional  fare of dangerous redicals), two women waiting for their own orders commented on her DUMP TRUMP badge. Anecdote led to anacdote, and she joined them at a table. Their names were Jennifer Pinkley and Suzanne Robinson, and they have been very active on the local scene.  WE SHALL OVERCOME!

Fio and Husband attended a Democratic rally yesterday evening and while Fiorella supports the cause, she wasn't comfortable with the process. She does not like to stand around in crowds of strange people shouting rhyming slogans like she's at a UT football game.
By the way, she doesn't like football games either. She considers sports to be a waste of time unless they are for fun and excercise instead of blood and money, and she isn't comfortable being part of what is basically a mindless mob scene unless she's running the show.
