There are worse goals in life than making things seem "a little less disgusting and a bit more bearable" than they otherwise might me.<br /><br />@Wahoo- I'm so old, I can actually remember when the Nobel Prize meant something. Now, not so much.<br /><br />@Fred Ciampi- Happy, sober, <i>and</i> prosperous seems like a lot to ask for, but I'll keep my fingers crossed! And if I send you some Mason jars, can you fill them from that still?<br /><br />@pdwalker- Granted I've had plenty of material to work with. Sure wish that I didn't...<br /><br />@Bobo the Hobo- "Sane" is kind of a relative term (grin).<br /><br />@Sally Jo- Thanks for the nice words!<br /><br />@Rod- 2015 sometimes dragged and sometimes flew by. I'm not sure if that's a function of increasing age, increasing media saturation, or both.<br /><br />@Mike aka Proof- It's a dirty job, but someone's got to do it.<br /><br />@Doug- Thanks!<br /><br />@Shelly- I don't doubt that 2016 is going to be our wildest year yet under this president. I recommend dramamine, airsick bags, and cheap liquor.<br /><br />@NVRick- That's a good and serious question and I'll do my best to give an honest answer. Currently, I don't plan to continue <i>Hope n' Change</i> in its current form when a new President takes office - although you can bet your ass I'll cover the day Barry leaves our White House!<br /><br />I'm an older man than I was 8 years ago, and I've put a lot of things on hold while fighting this fight. I'd like to take things down a notch and pursue some other projects which will be easier on my blood pressure.<br /><br />That being said, I won't suddenly disappear. For one thing, all of YOU mean too much to me for that to happen. Perhaps I'll just post HnC material sporadically on Facebook, or do a weekly post here, or maybe come up with some other idea entirely. Let's see what 2016 throws our way and we can all find out the future of <i>Hope n' Change</i> together!Stilton Jarlsberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14503164551782304564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8993108951931633758.post-3945744663431855502016-01-01T16:40:05.330-06:002016-01-01T16:40:05.330-06:00Stilt, I have one nagging concern: If Dear Leader ...Stilt, I have one nagging concern: If Dear Leader actually leaves the White House voluntarily, what are your plans for 'Hope 'n Change'? Will there be a new title, depending on who wins the election? Or will you consider your work completed?<br />I, along with others I am certain, hope there is no change (see what I did there?) in your efforts to bring attention to the failures and deceits of whoever earns it in the next 4/8 years.<br />Oh, by the way.
