Stories from the week of November 12, 2021

Not for nothin:    This week I learned that Fox mega star Greg Gutfeld (of The Five) came out in an interview that all drugs, including heroin, should be legal.

At Grover’s I asked a long-term buddy of mine for his email address.  My very conservative friend is working on it.  I want Greg to know, he is Not alone.

Just Fun:   Going to the grocery store near my Better Half’s home on Tuesday, I was wearing my ‘French Shirt,’ as she does not like the jarring impact of Legalize Heroin shirt.  Outside an employee asked, “Pourquoi legaliser le cannabis?”  We ended in a 7-minute chat en français…His mother tongue was French.  That was just fun and had me smiling the rest of the evening.
