I am a broken man. The world has become so hopeless that I desperately reach out in any direction to find somebody or something to admire. Lately I have been admiring the farmer-protests in Europe. Do you think these even get reported in the state-affiliated news programs in Europe?
It is not impossible that the protests could lead to a slight decrease in environmental regulations. Then, once the furor has died down, and Jean-Jacques Rosseaus's General Will has supposedly been heeded by the great democracy of Europe, the European Union desk jockeys will go back to creating more and more regulations.

Q.t.Pi got a cholla in her mouth on a bike ride. She let me cradle her against my body, and put the hemostat into her mouth and extract the Bad Stuff. She didn't even squeal, although she did squirm. Perhaps she is taking a more professional attitude to cholla. In a couple days I will leave cholla country, and Good Riddance to it.
