I woke up and as I had my morning coffee, I realized that everything is about to change. No matter how I vote, no matter what I say, something evil has invaded our nation, and our lives are never going to be the same.

I have been confused by the hostility of family and friends. I look at people I have known all my life--so hate-filled that they agree with opinions they would never express as their own. I think that I may well have entered the Twilight Zone.

You can't justify this insanity. We have become a nation that has lost its collective mind!

• If a man pretends to be a woman, you are required to pretend with him.

• Somehow it’s un-American for the census to count how many Americans are in America.

• Russians influencing our elections are bad, but illegals voting in our elections are good.

• It was cool for Joe Biden to "blackmail" the President of Ukraine, but it’s an impeachable offense if Donald Trump inquires about it.

• People who have never owned slaves should pay slavery reparations to people who have never been slaves.

• People who have never been to college should pay the debts of college students who took out huge loans for their degrees.

• Immigrants with tuberculosis and polio are welcome, but you’d better be able to prove your dog is vaccinated.

• Irish doctors and German engineers who want to immigrate to the US must go through a rigorous vetting process, but any illiterate gang-bangers who jump the southern fence are welcome.

• $5 billion for border security is too expensive, but $1.5 trillion for “free” health care is not.

• If you cheat to get into college you go to prison, but if you cheat to get into the country you go to college for free.

• People who say there is no such thing as gender are demanding a female President.

• We see other countries going Socialist and collapsing, but it seems like a great plan to us.

• Some people are held responsible for things that happened before they were born, and other people are not held responsible for what they are doing right now.

• Criminals are caught-and-released to hurt more people, but stopping them is bad because it's a violation of THEIR rights.

• And pointing out all this hypocrisy somehow makes us "racists"?!

Nothing makes sense anymore, no values, no morals, no civility and people are dying of a Chinese virus, but it racist to refer to it as Chinese even though it began in China.

We are clearly living in an upside down world where right is wrong and wrong is right, where moral is immoral and immoral is moral, where good is evil and evil is good, where killing murderers is wrong, but killing innocent babies is right.

Wake up America, the great unsinkable ship Titanic America has hit an iceberg, is taking on water, and is sinking fast. The choice is yours to make. What will it be? Time is short, make your choice wisely!

Feel free to copy and paste. I did.

Time for our government to wake up you either work with and for America or get the hell out .. we're tired of paying taxes and you incredibly selfish people don't give a damn for the people you work for... you should all be ashamed of yourself !!!!

"In June 1932, in the Oklahoma Panhandle, a eleven-year-old boy named Thomas Crain walked six miles alone across open drought-cracked prairie to bury his mother. She had been the last.

His father had died in 1930 of dust pneumonia. His sister in 1931, starvation. His mother in 1932, grief. He had, that morning, wrapped her body in the family quilt because the ground was too hard to dig a proper grave and he was too small to dig one anyway. He was walking to the nearest neighbor — the Henderson farm, six miles east — to ask for help.

He had walked three miles when he saw it, standing on a low rise beside the road.

A coyote. Adult male. Approximately forty pounds. But pure white. Not grey. Not tan. White. Pink nose. Pale blue eyes.

Albino coyotes occur at an estimated rate of one in one million. No albino coyote had been documented in Oklahoma in any living farmer's memory.

The coyote did not run. It sat down. It watched Thomas Crain walk past.

Thomas Crain later told the story, in a 1976 oral-history interview recorded when he was fifty-five, that he had stopped walking. He had sat down in the dirt beside the road. He had said out loud to the white coyote: 'I don't have anybody. I have six miles left. I can't do it.'

The coyote had stood up. It had walked approximately thirty feet ahead on the road. It had sat down again. Waiting.

Thomas Crain had stood up. He had walked. The coyote had walked thirty feet ahead. It had sat down. It had waited. For three miles. For the remaining two hours of the walk to the Henderson farm.

At the sight of the farmhouse, the coyote had turned and trotted back the way they had come. Thomas Crain watched it disappear into the heat shimmer.

The Hendersons took him in. They raised him alongside their own six children. He lived to be eighty-two. He became a soil conservation officer for the USDA — one of the men who, after the Dust Bowl, helped rebuild the grasslands that the drought had destroyed.

He never saw the white coyote again. He told his grandchildren, always: 'An animal walked me home when no person could. I have spent my life trying to walk other things home.'"

Never has someone been more right than Geno. The way the NCAA runs the women’s tournament is shameful.

One of the more unforgettable sequences in NCAA tournament history:
