Hamberders & Covfefe

   The man responsible for coining the words hamberders and covfefe has given his State of the Union address. This after he shut down the government for 35 days because he didn't get $5.7 billion for his useless border wall. I don't get this brainless twit. He's been told that there are better ways to secure the southern border, but instead for listening to his advisers, he lets xenophobic right wing cunt Ann Coulter dictate immigration policy to him. What a fucking dipshit.
  This man is delusional. Trump thinks he knows more and has better intelligence than the FBI, CIA and NSA combined and refuses to listen to them regarding threats to America. And on the subject of intelligence and security clearances, Jared Kushner had more than 100 errors or omissions on his SF86 security clearance form. Why this motherfucker has any security clearance at all is beyond me. You can bet that there are foreign governments looking to exploit this dipshit.
  Trump has declared a national emergency in order to secure funds for his border wall. House Democrats have introduced a resolution in order to block Trump's stupid maneuver but Trump has vowed to veto the resolution should it pass. Here's a video of declaring just that while basically lying his fat ass off.

  This dipshit is nothing more than an orange haired wannabe dictator. He recently referred to the press as 'The enemy of the people.' Truth is, the only enemy of the people is him.

The Mundanity Continues

  The polar vortex that plagued the area from Tuesday through Thursday has finally passed. The temperature has gone from -50 degrees to a much more tolerable 45 degrees. Let's hope that the super cold weather is done for the rest of the season.

  The Towers of Holding are being manufactured and the books, GM screens and plug and play tokens for the Judge Dredd RPG have been printed. Hopefully I'll be getting those soon. I've contributed to a Dice Coins Kickstarter in order to get a 10 coin set. Here's a YouTube video showing couple of d20 dice coins someone else ordered.

The set I want will consist of the following dice coins; d3 Cerberus, d4 Wizard, d5 Castle, d6 Cleric, d8 Ranger, d10 Skeleton Dragon, Percentile Phoenix, d12 Barbarian, d20 Lich and a Weather vane coin. As the video shows, each coin has a bump on the bottom that allows you to spin it like a top. You then stop the coin spinning by placing your finger on the edge. The first fully visible number to the left of your finger is the result. The Weather vane coin has words on it describing different weather conditions.
  I filed my taxes yesterday. I'll be getting back about $883.00 which will be split into my Simple and Serve accounts for Gen Con. Speaking of Gen Con, my hotel reservation has been made. I lucked out this year in that my hotel is only two blocks from the convention center. It's funny, the years when I made it a point to have the hotel reservation day off, I'd get a time when I could log into the housing portal that was 5 to 7 hours after reservations went live. This year I didn't request the day off and my log in time was 12:27 pm. It should be noted that the housing portal goes live at 11:00 am CST. I set up my hotel reservation while I was on lunch at work.
  I've been trying to lower my a1c but I'm not sure I'm making any headway. I have a fasting blood draw coming up on Thursday. I'm not sure if my a1c is one of the things they'll be determining at that time. I've got to stop the late night eating. It's not helping matters.
