    Just got a text from a random number asking if I would vote for Trump if the election was today. It was supposedly from DB Research and a quick Google leads to Deutsche Bank Research. Interesting where that rabbit hole leads.

    Ah...never mind I jumped the gun. David Binder research is the company. I was a bit flustered that a German bank would be polling an American election so I got ahead of myself. Carry on.

    Key difference FAA employees are fed employees. (public school) Teachers aren't, they work for the local school districts, which are in part funded by fed $ (I.e. Fed Taxes), but also from state/local tax Rev and in some cases grant $.

    Faa is under DOT which is under the evil orange man.

    Heres the thing I worked in both elementary and high school. The worst times for this distancing is class changes and cafeteria. Then lockers rooms and some gym sports. I never cozied up to my teachers and never saw classmates do so either. Class rooms can be worked around and just stagger releasing kids to their next class. It may lengthen school time of shorten class time but not by much. As for lunch open up rooms close to cafeteria that they can send some students to with their trays. Sorry but for many teachers and staff it's more about any extra effort than fear.

    I immediately thought of that post, wishing I had the Trump meme you had posted for a follow up text. I doubt this was an actual person even though it said Hi, I'm so and so with DB research. I assume bot, but who knows. I followed up with "all day every day".

    I got it. I just didn't get a straight forward answer from you. Im going to assume that you are not loyal to any party or political thought. That's not an insult. That's just the only perception I can have because I don't know where you stand. Although if I were going to bet on it, you lean to the left and also, in a utopia, everyone is right. But we ain't in one.

    I wouldn't have felt bad, may have replied with a "Thought it was a bot, nothing personal. Thanks for removing me."

    Right now I'm trying to figure out whether the Do Not Call Registry is a scam to get your number out there or not. Every damned day it's a spoofed number. "Hi, this is Nancy. We've been trying to reach out to you about your vehicles extended warranty." Does no freaking good to block the number as they never use the same number twice or something.

    Wish there was actually clout behind some of these things that you could actually punish them for breaking it.

    FYI the group suing Gov Whitmer and MHSAA and Marching on Aug 29th I am a big part of, look for me at the protest on the 29th. I plan on playing a little flag football at the capital.

    I am 0-1 when taking Athletic Associations to court, wish us luck.

    When's the last time Little Rocketman was confirmed seen alive?

    Last report awhile ago was he was gravely ill with Covid and not expected to make it. Then I think at least one story broke he had died and his sister was taking over who is even more deranged. Now reports they are in a food crisis and taking families pet dogs for food.
