Lotsa Luck 2016

I heartily agree with John Oliver's cleverly raucous "goodbye to 2016" rant - Fuck YOU 2016. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQ6WPo-oW5Q

But I wish to add a personal note:  "AND the horse you rode to town".  Because 2016 has been one of the shittiest years of my life for a number of reasons.  Of course, none of it is my fault.  Everyone should revere and idolize me, believe everything that spews from my pie-hole, no matter how outrageous, scary, and damaging to millions of people, no matter how many times I change my story... oh, wait, that's an excerpt I hacked from Trump's inauguration speech (thanks for changing teams, finally, Julian Assange!  Stay with what works - trashing whoever is in power in the hopes that one day the rape charges will be dropped and you can't be extradited for trial).  Which brings me to the one bright spot we have left this year - and alas, it's only for a day or two - Trump isn't president YET.  For now, we still have Obama, a space where life seems reasonable, fair, hopeful and clear.  Let us raise a final glass to this intelligent, passionate, caring man - and to Michelle as well (please oh please change your mind about 2020!).  I have to think 2017 will be better, because it simply has to be from my perspective, but it won't be because of Donald Trump.  (Can't bear to put the title with the name yet, "President Donald Trump" OMG this embarrassing, pussy-grabbing twitter twit will soon be anointed Leader of the Free World.)  I can only hope that as Washington is transformed into Clown Town, billionaires greedily engage in raping and pillaging our economy to line their greasy pockets, and Republicans run roughshod over environmental laws and human rights... oh crap.  Well at least we have the three weeks.
