May God comfort the grieving families of those tragically lost today in Uvalde. May our country persevere until we can replace our corrupt, dementia-ridden President with a leader who truly cares for all Americans. May God help us all until that day finally arrives. .

Neo - Thanks for the great article on the Anarcho-Fascists' comms/riot strategy yesterday at 1:59 P.M. And to think there has *STILL* not been a major federal prosecution of any "Antifa" rioter/terrorist, while the 1/6 demonstrators languish in solitary for trespass and unlawful entry charges. Our modern-day FBI has NO interest in going after the leftist terrorists.

Dr.J - So glad to hear of Mrs.J's positive news. But so sorry to learn of your hearing issues. For someone with such a love of music as you it must be especially difficult to face. Wishing you all the best.

Narciso - Happy Birthday ! Congrats to Dr. J and the "new" Mrs. Dr. J. Amen to Kev's 1:47 P.M. from yesterday.

Momto2 - Thank you for the update on MissM. Can't even begin to say how glad I am that the diagnosis is dehydration, and not stroke. The long term implications are sooo much better with dehydration. Prayers for her speedy recovery.

Question for the JOM ladies . . . Has Kamala dyed her hair black, changed her hairstyle, and trimmed/reshaped her eyebrows since her failure debate performance? Looks that way to me, but I'm just a guy, so what do I know?

Cory Booker asking about same-s*x relationships, and giblet (GBLT) rights now. Sounds kinda appropriate, doesn't it? NTTAWWT

I hope that Sen. Whack-job Hirono's question to ACB re "Have you ever been accused of se*ual harassment?" isn't setting-up a post-hearing allegation meant to destroy her nomination, a la Justice Kavanaugh's accuser.

Oops. Tag line should be: "What are you hiding, Joe?" or maybe "What are ya hiden, Biden."

Hi Melinda - Been great to see you back lately. Really enjoy the stories you've been linking, especially the expose (ex-po-say?) on BLM's origins from the other day. Thanks for all of them.

I would love to see Pres. Trump run an ad that asks Joe Biden the "court packing question"... Then follow it with the tag line "What are hiding, Joe?" Turn it into a cultural and social media tag line. .

Narciso - Glad to hear that. Thanks to Porchlight, Jane, JM Hanes and Dave(in MA) for the nice words. I have *really* missed you all. Great to see Soylent, PD in Detroit, Tom R., buford gooch, and BeenThereDoneThat all dropping in to visit and comment, too.

Hiya Narciso - Been mostly gone for a long time. How have you and the family been doing?

My only big wish . . . That Mike Pence would have finally said that the questions (Breonna Taylor, not leaving office?) with all due respect were trivializations that did *not* address the most-pressing issues of concern to the nation. Then just ask and answer his own question.

Kev - Late in coming, but heartfelt . . . Sorry I missed you (Sat. morning ?) re your answer to the Marichal/Roseboro question. Thank you very much for the details you provided. I was sincerely interested, and your reply answered all my questions.

Most never forgave Marichal. What did you hear that Roseboro did that was unforgivable? We never heard what Giants fans thought justified Marichal splitting Roseboro's head open with a bat. I've always wondered what you saw/heard from your side.

[Bob Gibson] Was not afraid to move batters off the plate. Good hitter too. A truly great pitcher. Posted by: Captain Hate | October 03, 2020 at 07:06 AM Was not afraid to throw fastballs right at a batter's head. There, FIFY. Hated him in his classic confrontations with my beloved Dodgers back in the day. (No country for Dodgers fans either back then) [h/t KevlarKid] - hi!

That's great. Nigh night.

shove every remaining undecided normal person into Trump's loving arms. It's already happening. Posted by: Porchlight | October 02, 2020 at 02:16 AM I'm guessing there will be more than a million lefties going online by Friday afternoon to express their hope that Pres. Trump gets a fatal case - thereby driving the last of the undecided muddled ones into Pres. Trump's camp even faster. Hi Porch ! Hope all is well with you and the rest of the 'lights. Agree with you re Jacques Pepin . . . he is a treasure, the very best.

Miss Marple - Belated Happy Birthday wishes to one of JOM's best and nicest. Sorry I missed it - hope you had a great b'day.

clarice- VBM = Vote By Mail ?

rse - Apologies for the delay, but I wanted to extend my condolences to you and your family. May your father's peaceful passing and your cherished memories be a comfort to you in this time of sorrow. May God bless you all.

OL, Buckeye and MissM . . . Thanks !

Been away for the past 14 months, and I have truly missed being part of the JOM family conversation. Hope that all is well with everyone, and that y'all are safely distanced from the latest "protestors" working with those Panty-fa types, trying to destroy America. Hard to stomach listening to Joey "Plugs" Biden's latest screed against Pres. Trump - no criticism of rioting and violence, or failed political leadership. Not even a call for people to come together to call for peace. Just blaming everything on Pres. Trump, and calling for more national "dialogues" and democrat hearings, of course. Take care, and be safe out there (h/t Steven Bochco's HSB and Michael Conrad).

Matt - I am so sorry to hear of your troubles. May God grant you the strength to deal with all that you're facing.
