Saturday March 14, 1998 was kind of an important day. Julianne Moore was hosting Saturday Night Live, with musical guests, Backstreet Boys.

They still haven't revealed where the Legionnaire's Disease is coming from. We have been told it could be any of nearly 200 cooling towers in the area, and they expect it to take weeks to determine which one or more of those vents leeched the bacteria into the air. So, that's kinda interesting.

In better news, allegedly, they shored up the building that was supposed to collapse. It took a team of firefighters, architects and construction people to come in for a solid 24 hours, and... it's fixed!

Great. Now do the trump admnistration.

Seriously, all that king's horses and all that king's men are not interested in fixing the country again.

But I have been thinking about what's going to happen when trump tries to call off the midterm elections. Somebody has to state that these people have no authority. Like when they try to make whatever claims, there needs to be at least one person in charge, but better, a group of people to state that these actions carry no weight.

That would force a question as to who is really in charge, and would set up a court case.

It's a little bit like that story that's been going around the internet for several months about the shady store in Utah that stole $200K in Legos from a guy and tried to pretend it never happened, and the streamer "randomdan" who took it upon himself to find out what happened.

If you're not familiar with this story, it's been a real whirlwind, where the store owners claimed that they did nothing wrong, then went on to accuse randomdan of everything, primarily because he was making a filmed documentary about the whole case.

Turns out, the police were in on it all, too! More than anything, it really mirrors trump's America, where all the courts are ignoring all the evidence in order to get the result they want.

But persistence pays off. And that's what we have to have. This is going to be an ongoing issue, and we better start thinking about what's going to happen, because Election Day is just 117 days from now. And, if they don't get derailed, the 2028 Presidential Election will be in 852 days.

I'll try not to be so political, just as soon as I can.
