Two Turkeys and The Don

Oh man, I can NOT believe it's already November!! Where has the rest of the year gone?? Especially the summer! That flew by in the blink of an eye, didn't it! Before we know it the Holidays will be upon us. Did you notice that Thanksgiving is on the 23rd this year? We thought that was pretty early, seeing as there's 30 days in November, but then we realized there are 5 Thursdays in November this year. Thanksgiving is always on the 4th Thursday. I always thought it was the LAST Thursday of the month, never thinking about the odd year when there are more than 4 of 'em in the month. I know, I'm blabbering on about something completely unimportant and not at all interesting, but what else does one do at midnight when tired and sleep cannot be found? LOL

Okay, so on to the semi-interesting stuff. *wink* Yesterday John Kerry aplogized for his so-called "poorly stated joke" saying,

"I sincerely regret that my words were misinterpreted to wrongly imply anything negative about those in uniform, and I personally apologize to any service member, family member or American who was offended"

Yeah, ummm ... way too little way too late, John ol' boy! Apology not accepted!

Now, on to the big man himself, "The Donald". It seems his American flag at his Florida estate is causing quite a flap. He has been cited by Palm Beach for hoisting the large American flag onto an 80-foot pole outside his Mar-a-Lago estate and club.

Town officials say Trump has violated zoning codes with a flagpole taller than 42 feet. They also said he didn't get a building permit, didn't get permission from the landmarks board and violated his club's agreement with the town.

Trump has until Nov. 27 to apply for approval or face a December code enforcement hearing that could result in fines of $250 a day.

Yeah, like that $250 bucks a day is actually gonna hurt! He responded in a letter, saying permits are not necessary to put up an American flag.

He also wrote that "anyone who objects should not hold a public office"

Right on, Donald!!!
