"thank God", or some other nonsense. Sanders was never going to win over the coalition, that was obvious to those of us who continued to respect and admire the current POTUS. We knew all along that Hillary was his natural successor.

By the way, I'm watching my President boarding Air Force One, on his way to NY to tape a show with Jimmy Fallon tonight.

I can get online from time to time. This is really good news and I was thinking about just how amazing this is given the facts you pointed out.

I like to check in when I can get online, I get out into some seriously remote places so a little familiarity with DU is helpful to keep from getting too far out there mentally. Glad the primaries have nearly finished and now I guess we have wait until July or a certain someone gives up the ghost, whichever comes first.

Sometimes I can get NPR so I can at least tell what some of the topics of the day are. Guess some decided to take a stroll through a geyser basin and got swallowed up by it the other day in the near-by national park... anything I have to say about that would quickly decline to a nasty rant so I'll not go there

I read the new rules coming up so I'm good with those, it will be a nice change.

Catch ya later, I have to get some stuff done and get back out into the wild.

One thing I can get readily is FM signal in my work vehicle, even twenty-some miles past the end of the paved road, so I listen to the news most days. And this is great news!
