Tie dye clothing does not have to be hideous. Only hippy tie dye is.

The Japanese make traditional kimonos and other tie dye fabrics that are stunning.

Today my dog, Skinner, annouced her candidacy for President. Please tell the ladies of Ithaca. Also, Skinner is not a Repubican. She’s a Labrashepard.

Monopoly money at least has the advantage of not being devalued over the years. 50 years ago you could buy an entire railroad for $200.00. As far as I know that is still the going rate. 50 years ago gas was around 20 cents a gallon and today it is more than 20 times that amount.

Bernie,

I wanted the shirt, but I wasn’t about the give these people any of my money.

But in one sense, I failed as a reporter. I should have got in there and, if I could have managed to not spout off (unlikely with me), I could have gotten some better material.

Stand by for a report on a professor, though. When I post what he has said, it will not be believed.

I don’t know - Monopoly does teach a typically liberal “winner take all” view of capitalism.

But Matt, what about the Ithaca Gun t-shirt. Did you ask one of these ladies where you could get one? If so, the look on their faces must have been priceless.

Maybe the woman who would vote for a dog listens to Garrison Keillor on “A Prairie Home Companion”.

He never tires of telling listeners that he is a yellow dog Democrat, that is someone who would vote for a yellow dog before someone from another party.
