Ya think it's easy?

“More kids, less cant. More can, less can’t. What’s not to like?”

Last year was a clinic for the Cautious, but preening Ci came off very badly, compared to compassionate Cs. Whether the impetus is the virus, the response to it or the riots, Cs and Ds are on the move – away from every pernicious Ci influence.

Housing is about kids and dogs. Every noun in that sentence will do better, going forward, because of 2020’s hysterical Ci overreach. Everyone wants to believe in his own peculiar genius, but good news, most often, comes from the other guy’s mistakes. Rejoice and be glad in it.
