7.

8.  Luvvie’s recommendations are gold.

9.  Because I think ease of access makes connection more likely, here are a few links:

@The Rachel Maddow Show reflects on the first 100 days of President Donald Trump’s second term in office. “It’s him absolutely blowing it. …it has been the proverbial comedy of errors,” Maddow says. #news #trump #politics #washington

28.  A little humor, a little commentary, a little news, a little education.

29.  It’s a grab bag with something for everyone I hope.

30.  Thirty down, ten to go.

31.  KICK IT INTO HIGH GEAR.

32.  Let’s round things out with some this or that.

33.  Spring or fall? Spring.

34.  Checkers or chess? Checkers.

35.  Vanilla or chocolate? Chocolate.

36.  Socks or slippers? It has to be socks and shoes these days which makes me feel ancient but my feet are happier.

37.  Hot fudge or caramel? Both. (My game, my rules.)

38.  Up or down, in or out, over or through?

39.  Up. In. Through.

40.  And with that vague little nugget we’ll close. Happy weekend, everybody.
