In billy.pilgrim's honor, a spot at the top.

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

I was always struck by the irony of a southern progressive, a good old boy that adored Jimmy Carter.

He will be missed.

What happened to billy?
People are crazy and times are strange. I'm locked in tight, I'm out of range.
I used to care, but, things have changed.

He was apparently in poorer health than we knew.

He passed last April. We didn't find out until later.

Sort of glad he didn't have to experience yesterday, he would've been mortified.

Yeah, I thought the same thing....meant to post here yesterday that he's probably glad he didn't have to see the way this turned out.

Damn damn damn! I guess I should be glad for him, as well. Funny, I just read Slaughter House Five again, after almost 50 years. I would say, "So it goes." but it doesn't seem right, in this moment.
