It's a beautiful day! And so the first domino has fallen. I thought of you as soon as I heard about him being 'INDICATED' (as tRump said on (no)truth social) and looked forward to your writing this morning. Cheers Greg!
With tRump, things always have their own trajectory, deflections, insults, with long legs and full of foolish surprises. As Helen said, “INDICATED.” It’s a fun combination for coffee with you, Greg. ☕️ Oh yeah, I’ll share this one too!
Huzzah Greg, I kept opening your November ‘01 column while reading this exceptional piece as well. Enjoying a great flashback experience is always appreciated. As I recall your words seemed hauntingly familiar, leading us to this Fabulous Fucking day!
After reading one of my favorite books “The Shamans Apprentice” years ago, your guest is amazing, thanks! I’m so, looking forward to today’s Prevail, and tonight’s 5-8!! Enjoy your spring break, we all need and deserve one after the past 6+ years, Slainte!!

Perfect time, Greg Olear, to talk about our climate. Seriously. Looking forward to listening to what Mark Plotkin has to say. I'm hopeful his prospects for Mother Earth are positive.
Today is also the day I will finish reading "Empress." So NOT looking forward to turning over those remaining pages. More about that maybe later!

Someone, somewhere, yesterday, wrote that even though Trump brought it on himself, that it was a "terrible day for America." Naturally, my opinion differed. The "terrible days for America" were the years that Trump played president, and then walked around free after his crime spree. Yesterday was a GOOD day for America. It showed that although our justice system is slow as mud on a level surface, it still works. I wish Mr. Trump many more happy indictments to come!
Am I crazy when I say that if weather people, employed by the almost 400 local news outlets across the country, had started mentioning "climate change" 15-20 years ago during their weather segments, we'd be in a much different place regarding how climate change is viewed by a lot of people? Americans need repetition to remember anything, and although weather is different than climate, I think if we'd all heard things like, "hurricanes are much stronger and frequent this year, due to what most scientists believe is our changing climate," or "Los Angeles snowed under? You can thank climate change for that," climate change might have been something we just ASSUMED was the culprit in our crazy weather changes by now, and we'd be doing more about it. But no. Even last night when weather persons were predicting massive thunderstorms today here in Chicago and a high of 70, with tomorrow's weather being a low of 36 and a high of 42 with snow showers, no mention was made of it. It's just "...this crazy Chicago weather! Back to you, Kitty!" And then on to the Cubs Opening Day and more SPORTS! Makes me crazy!
It has been 6 years of depression and hate for Resident Donald Chernobyl and one heart attack. I truly want him to not have my oxygen. Fraud Supreme , Commander In Thief. Racist. Rapist.
I missed the show last night because I forgot it was on, but I saw it today! Great mini-finale for spring break. I've lately discovered, "The Americans," the Russian spy TV show and really can't get enough of it. I think I blew it off when it was on because Keri Russell was "Felicity," and save me from that dreck, but WOW -- now, she just shoots people in the head, whenever! I like WHEN it's taking place, the casting, storylines, etc. "Jericho," which I also tried recently, just wasn't doing it for me, so I switched over to this one. But I'll eventually get back to "Jericho," if for no other reason than Beth Grant, who is a character actor I have loved since "Donnie Darko." "Sometimes I doubt your commitment to Sparkle Motion!" HA!
Loved this. My daughter is really into mushrooms’ ability to work on mental issues. I have a friend who is an integrative medicine doctor who I am sending this to. So someone posted something you wrote 3 years ago about Trump. It blew my mind so I am posting the link here so that others can read it. Happy Spring Break!
On the Access Hollywood video, Trump boasted that as a celebrity he could grab women by the pussy. In at least one case, the pussy had teeth.

I also made the "indicated" typo this week. OTOH, I'm not the one being indicated. : )
🤣
Stormy weather is always on the horizon, so bring it on for some national cleansing.. Spring cleaning a good time to rid ourselves of the chaff
There's stormy weather, and then there's Stormy Daniels. Who knew?

I hope you liked the ending!
My preferred ending would be Bohemond does not die; rather that he returns to Anna and together they take the purple, living...happily ever after!

Chef’s kiss Greg …” Trump’s serial abuse of women extends to Mother Earth.”
So very glad for Americans today.

Amen, Steve. We said much the same on the show last night.
You're right about the weathermen. Little things could have made a huge difference...
