UPDATE ON BLOGGING.... I've made the difficult decision to go dark on my two blog sites (Theater Colorado and Pensees). Theater Colorado will remain active for now, but there will be no new content after 12/31/2020. This is due to several factors, not the least of which is that there is very little live theater to cover at this time. The foreseeable future is very cloudy for live theater. I'd like to think it will go back to "normal" sometime soon, but the reality is that a significant number of small theaters may not survive the Covid 19 pandemic. "Normal" is not coming back. There will be a New and Different Normal." As for "Pensees,", I had expectations that I could grow an audience over time. Sadly, that is just not happening. I've had posts that draw 30-40 views, but those are rare. The reality is that most of my posts are only getting views in the teens or twenties. Getting traction is difficult, and I'm not sure there...
PENSEE #7 Trump's worst nightmare has arrived. The New York Times brings Trump's tax scam to the party . It's a late September surprise that could tip some voters into Biden's camp. Of course, the White House is squealing about more "fake news." That's a pretty lame response if you ask me. If it's fake news, he needs to back up that claim with proof that the Times has either made up a story (unlikely) or has made a huge journalist blunder (possible but not likely). So here's my beef with Trump today: 1. Don't tell me it's fake news unless you can prove it . 2. It's a privilege to be an American. Taxes are how we support that privilege. Pay your fair share. You're lucky to be an American. Tax cheaters are nothing but free loaders who want the benefits of being an American without paying for those benefits. 3. I paid more tax than the President. You probably did too. So did the majority of his base. ...
PENSEE #8 Nobody is going to mistake Eric Trump for a "stable genius." His reaction to the New York Times report on Donald's tax issues is a good example of why he should just shut up. “They’ve been writing that article for three months and they wanted it to drop the morning before the debate!” he said. “These are disgusting people!” So here's the problem, Eric. If you don't like focusing on taxes just before the debate, Donald had a 100% opportunity to pick a better time for the bad news. At any point in the last 4 years, he could have disclosed this information himself. But no. I noticed that in his self righteous disgust, he didn't say that the NYT got it wrong. So let's focus on the real issues here: 1. Who does Donald owe more than $400M to? 2. These loans are not for the Trump businesses. They're personal loans to DJT. How does he plan to repay them? 3. Are any of these loans from foreign sources? ...
