As we sit here in Australia with our jaws on the floor, the quote of the week from The Donald ran something like this...
“When I learned that being shallow was clever, that was very deep for me.” Quite the philosopher, or then again... Fortunately the cosmos is resilient enough to handle this gift from America. I just hope the collateral damage (to humans in great need of help) will be minimal.

Thanks Michael. Always nice to know about “the competition.” Of course, they get the Big Bucks. But we get the glory. Or something. Great to be on the Planet. Hope you are enjoying The Donald.
