Nothing new around here as it is too early to tell what the day will offer. The adventure continues.

Today I need to check on my application for Social Security... I have to report an increase in income that just happened... a pleasant surprise.

Now the New York Times in promoting something you won't like...

The New York Times thinks its a good idea to cut Social Security entitlements (pensions) ... they forget.... that the current crisis is caused by $1 trillion a year for the war and a structural deficit caused by tax cuts for the rich.

He's definitely a one term president...
