This up and down weather is playing havoc with my sinuses. 37 one day, 18 two days later. My nose is dripping like a tap. I've reacted this way for over 40 years. My father suffered greatly with bronchitis, which was the reason we moved to Deniliquin in 1956. Atmosphere much drier there.

BREAKING: Donald Trump's takeover of the Kennedy Center implodes in humiliating fashion as droves of talented celebrities abandon the legendary performing arts center in protest. Trump is radioactive with the people he wants to impress most... Actress Issa Rae announced on Instagram in a brief statement that she is cancelling her "An Evening With Issa Rae" event slated for next month. Tickets will be refunded. "Unfortunately, due to what I believe to be an infringement on the values of an institution that has faithfully celebrated artists of all backgrounds through all mediums, I’ve decided to cancel my appearance at this venue," she wrote. Trump made himself chairman of the center on Wednesday. Earlier this week he removed Biden appointees from the board and rammed in unqualified cronies including Second Lady Usha Vance and White House Chief of staff Susie Wiles. Mega-successful television producer and writer Shonda Rhimes — the woman behind hit shows like Grey's Anatomy, Bridgerton, and Scandal among others — resigned as treasurer of the center's board yesterday. She posted a quote from JFK on her Instagram: "If art is to nourish the roots of our culture, society must set the artist free to follow his vision wherever it takes him." Legendary soprano Renée Fleming resigned as artistic advisor to the center and while she avoided naming Trump, she praised David M. Rubenstein — the center's former chairman who was ousted. Singer and songwriter Ben Folds stepped down from his role as advisor to the National Symphony Orchestra, which the Kennedy Center oversees. "Given developments at the Kennedy Center, effective today I am resigning as artistic adviser to the N.S.O. Mostly, and above all, I will miss the musicians of our nation’s symphony orchestra — just the best!" Folds wrote on Instagram. Adam Weiner of the band Low Cut Connie has also canceled an appearance at the center next month. "Upon learning that this institution that has run nonpartisan for 54 years is now chaired by President Trump himself and his regime, I decided I will not perform there," he wrote on social media, adding that friends and fans were going to be "directly negatively affected by this administration’s policies and messaging." This is the kind of rejection that infuriates Donald Trump more than anything. He has long wanted to be accepted by America's cultural elites. Instead, they see him for the cruel, fascist, incompetent failure he truly is.

And the suckers will swallow it hook line and sinker. However, things are tanking a bit for him. Lots of Tesla orders cancelled and Tesla shares nosediving. A question was asked on Facebook, what would you like to get rid of to help the economy? Every second comment was Tesla cars. Trump also rated highly. Soon he won't be able to give them away. A German car hire firm has dumped all EV's and gone back to ICE.

(Slight diversion: I have the same problem texting. I've changed to using voice to text. I mentioned it at the Shed, and a mate got Siri to type the text then read it back to check she got it right before sending. That may help you.)

Trump has ordered DOGE to audit the IRS

Under capitalism, man exploits man. Under socialism, it's the exact opposite.

They'd have a tough time trying to satisfy you.

A guy went for a holiday on a pig farm. For breakfast, they had eggs and bacon. For lunch it was ham sandwiches. In the evening, they had pork chops or roast pork. The guy said to the farmer, "This tea tastes strange." The farmer said, "Yes, we use bore water." The guy said, "Gee, you don't waste much of the pig, do you?"

Both of them belong in GITMO.

GON. You are always sprouting what a wonderful fellow the orange buffoon is. Here is a summary of his his achievements so far.

Let them all catch ebola. That will teach them.

Got my schedule for the hospital visit to fix my pacemaker problem. Check-in at 10:30 am next Friday, overnight stay, and no driving for two weeks.

You are riding the same old hobby horse like your complaints about AEC. Complain complain complain. You must be a bitter miserable person to know. Lighten up a bit.

There is currently a global boycott of Tesla vehicles, US voters are calling the Senate and House switchboards hammering lawmakers with 2,000 calls a minute, Trump's polling numbers are dramatically falling.

One of Australia's first commercial wind farms has been earmarked for decommissioning after its owners ruled out replacing aging turbines due to cost. The Codrington Wind Farm opened near Port Fairy in south-west Victoria in July 2001, marking a new frontier in renewable energy in Australia. The site was deemed "close to perfect" due to its strong prevailing winds off the Southern Ocean when Premier Steve Bracks opened what was at the time Australia's largest wind farm.

While Elon Musk seizes control of federal agencies and illegally cuts funding to essential services like food aid and cancer research, Trump quietly rewards him with nearly half a BILLION in taxpayer money for armored Cyber Trucks. This isn't a government; it's a heist.

When we did away with 1c and 2c coins, the odd cents remained on the price of most things. On a grocery lists, they evened themselves out to within five cents. When you got to the total, the amount was rounded up or down. A total of $xx.47 became $xx.45, and $xx.48 becane $xx.50. Over a trolley of groceries, the win or loss was no more than 3c, and over a period of time the wins and losses cancelled each other out. I haven't paid cash at a register for more than 20 years. Ahhh, fantastic plastic. I don't have a bank ap to pay by waving the phone.
