Curly, Moe, Larry and Captain Queeg

Luckily, we now have filmed evidence of Trump and the White House staff preparing for the Comey firing.

Really, it's pretty much a Three Stooges operation at the White House:

"Rosenstein made me do it, because Comey was atrocious to Hillary."

"Sessions told me that Comey had to go."

"Rosenstein drafted a memo, but it was the Presidents final decision"

and finally,

"I decided to fire him a long time ago. No matter what anyone said. He got two scoops of ice cream and the orders are two scoops for the President elected only as the result of massive voter fraud, and only one scoop for everyone else, and especially Comey"

Our country is the laughingstock of the world.

You Have to Hand it to Putin.

Vladimir Putin is having a hall of fame year. No one else was able to take a bunch of Red Bull fueled hackers and nudge the world into panic. The French shut him down there last Sunday, but the dividends he's receiving from the United States will fill his coffers for decades to come. Putin not only controls Russia, and keeps the former Soviet client states on a short leash, he now effectively controls Syria with the bonus that no one else in their right mind wants to have anything to do there. The US is now in full crisis mode after the Comey firing. You can be sure that Comey will be back testifying before Congress. The message today from the Republicans is "Hey, it's no big deal. Nobody liked Comey. You should thank us. It's all about the election. Just because you won doesn't change the fact you lost." I can see in my mind Vlad having a cigar and a good laugh with his senior minions. All this turmoil and it cost them less than a single new tank...

The Friendship Blog

I've been blog AWOL for over a week and it's mostly Brad Herran's fault for coming to visit. Sure I asked him, and he came, so I guess it's really my fault. When two friends are at fault together, it becomes a good. Brad and I were roommates in college and best friends. The first year, 1972-73, we were in adjoining rooms in Bury Hall . I shared a room with Jim "The Missing" Link and Brad sharing with Greg "The Horniest Preacher on Earth" Givili. I was a junior and he was a freshman, and I did exactly what I was supposed to do: I corrupted him from his mid-west sensibilities into a full blown reprobate. The next year we shared "The Dungeon." The Dungeon was the last room on a dead-end hall with no escape except by the central stairwell. We adorned the room appropriately. Bunk beds broken down to make two singles. Window glass painted with blue tempera paint, casting a black-light like glow across the room, and making it hard for C...

About Being an Oregonian

Gasoline sets Oregonians apart from most all other Americans. The reason is simple: This woman is a wanton lawbreaker. For those of you that don't know, pumping your own gas in Oregon isn't generally allowed. There are exceptions, of course, but every year someone moves to Oregon and starts bellyaching about how awful it is that you can't pump your own gas. Today in a guest opinion piece in The Oregonian Murr Brewster explains this and the soul of Oregonians, better than I can. Enjoy! BY MURR BREWSTER Guest columnist Brian K. Pinaire (" Just let us pump our own gas, already ," July 16) would really like to fill his own gas tank. Somehow, this feels like freedom to him. Perhaps I have a few more seconds than he to spend in quiet contemplation while I listen to my car radio, but I have a different take. People think this is a matter of choice, and that the choice to pump one's own gas has been taken off the table. Actually, everywhere self-service h...
