For the ones who were here last night, who refused to accept the news about Biden
claiming that they were waiting for their text message (and hurling insults at those of us who posted the news from different sources), a friendly advice: life is not a rigid road where there is only one way to do things. You have to be able to flex and to bend as the wind blows and as the road turns. Insisting that you will not accept facts just because you have not been notified by an assigned source, you will end up behind, disappointed and bitter. And, yes, last night there were bitter posts about "where is my text message..)

Life in general and politics are composed of compromises. Unless you are going to live in a cabin in Montana being self sufficient, learn to shrug the "waiting for what was promised." At least, learn to shrug the small stuff.

:hi:

1. I got the word directly from ginbarn this morning
I trust ginbarn.

And no, I didn't get my text message, either. But I did see a bunch of Secret Service vehicles descending on the Biden estate hours before the official announcment.
