Some thought for a cloudy January Day

Have you been watching the impeachment fiasco? I say fiasco because that is the way it appears to me. The house spent weeks interviewing witnesses and gathering evidence and then after a month of sitting on the articles of impeachment, finally sent them to the Senate. Now they want the Senate to include other witnesses and documents for further evidence. Well, nope, you had weeks to do that, you ran the evidence gathering according to your rules, and now you want to run the Senate trial also. According to your rules.  Funny it didn't happen that way when Clinton was impeached. 
Speaking of Clinton, Hillary that is, she is opening her mouth on the current political scene. While she has much to say about Trump, seems her current fight is with Bernie. I don't care that much for Bernie, but so far he is ignoring Hillary, for the most part. He did say at one point that he don't understand why she is trying to "discuss" the 2016 election. She lost and that is that.  Although the House is trying their best to overcome that verdict. They have been trying ever since before Trump was sworn in. 
On to another subject. Well, kinda.  Also in the news is the upcoming trial of Harvey Weinstein. Now, I know I have been out of the movie loop for a number of years. But if I ever saw a movie that good ol' Harvey was involved in, I have no clue what it was. And I don't really care. Even when I was younger and attending a lot of movies, I really couldn't tell you who the director was. Even then, much less now. Seems some of these "Celebrities" have to get in trouble for some of us to know who they are.
Also, in the Hollywood genre, it seems that Debra Dugan (sp) is in trouble. She is the lady who was hired to do something with the Grammy's coming up. Guess she stepped on someones toes or something cause now she is out, just days before the Grammy's air on the tube. 
HO HUM.
Now to the Royals.  I don't understand why people are so enamored with them. Actually, we dismissed them sometime around 1776. I see no reason to change that. As for Harry and Megan, Harry has threatened the paparazzi with a law suit if they don't leave him alone.  good for him.  Hope he does. And I like to use a camera as much as most, but to invade the privacy of a family is just wrong.  
And finally, a few weeks ago my wife and I stayed a night in a Hotel. It was a pet friendly Hotel. OK we were assured that we would no be in a room that allowed pets.  OK.  However, while that seemed to be the case, when we went down the following morning to get a little breakfast before leaving for an appointment, s lady with her dog on a long leash was in the breakfast room getting her food while her dog climbed over the tables and chairs and sniffing every thing, then when we went to the elevator to go up to the room to get our bags, we had to avoid a dog puddle on the floor of the elevator and then when coming down to check out, had to go around a man with two dogs waiting to get on the elevator. Lest you think I dislike dogs, let me assure you that I do not. I was raised with dogs, and my wife and I had dogs most of our married life, up until just a few years ago. But they were out side dogs, and they didn't climb over furniture and pee on the floor when other people were.  We will stay at a different hotel the next time.
AND THAT'S THE THOUGHT OF THE DAY FROM THE DITCH BANK
