Smack and dab…the state of purple  

What you get… as in equal amounts of red and blue…a whole other hue. And what the "Blues" may experience, in the rise of dread, or red, as it is written by their accountants. As one of the Big Three, that has gone from a double dose of blue to that of deep purple. While it sounds like a political statement to say "you can keep your doctor", if you're a salaried worker for GM it remains true if they take Aetna. Which, depending on your palate, their plans come in a panoply of purple. 😒

One of the reasons... for us here being in a state of confusion: while open season for deer, has already begun for bow hunters at least, open enrollment in our state starts on the day you are also reminded to turn your clocks back, a few days ahead of the deadline, for turning in your final vote (which, if it's late, my teacher tells me I can still get partial credit😌)

The perks of purple... as it came to be scene in this morning's local..."A runway bride!" My own caption to how the one that came to "fix the damn roads!" is now, perhaps even better captioned..."paving the way to her political future" as in breaking ground (while our state is losing it) as part of a 152 million "investment"...in an air base😳. Going to need the deepest purple you can find in the box, . No wonder they call this a "battleground state " Or, saving the best for last...a former Guv here, after promising "You'll be blown away" blew out of town just about as fast as you can say "duel citizenship" (turns out it was just a whirlwind rumor, as while born across the river border, she became naturalized here) whereas this one, leaving us in a lurch (what would you call being number 43/44 in economy and education?) is expanding her horizons while, in the present tense, positioned herself (“perfectly poised “) ..smack dab in the middle of the camera…The actual scene shows her...shoveling a shovel full of dirt, giving rise…

A close contender… “hitting pay dirt while coming out squeaky clean” - nice try but yes what us political satirists call an unnecessary redundancy.

"Wait just a damn minute!" The after-election effects. Color me, whatever crayon aligns with cynical.

What’s your (out)take, on this fake…?   “My turn, to ask the questions…Mr. Hogan…” ( so said the ring announcer) - just after aka “The Hulk” announced his own arrival…”I’ve got more answers than you’ve got questions…but go ahead and try me…I made Ozzy look more like Harriet…showed up all the so-called showmen…I’ll call them all out, then throw them out, of the ring, by their...bling!" “Which brings me to the first question, I’ve been wresting with…about this whole ring thing” “Easy trapeze Announcer…man! “It’s where we professionals meet to square things up, settle the whole who’s got the best hair and in my rare case, macho mustachio!” Speaking of rare…if you ever find yourself on top, Hulk’s only rule…try not to drool, grosses me out more than that old lady picking her nose in the nose bleed section…wouldn’t want to run into her in a dark alley if you get my mid-drift…!”  “ Ok try this one on for size, settle the controversy that’s been whirling around the World Wide Web, Fe...
