My house is OK!

Folks, I know you've all been worried about #Irma and especially about my estate on St. Martin, Le Château des Palmiers. Well, you have nothing to worry about, because it's A-OK! And it's available starting at only $6000 per night. I'm also looking for a buyer. I've listed it at just $16.9 million! Believe me, that represents a very, very substantial discount. Formerly $28 million. Comes with 5 acres surrounded by an 8-foot wall. Also, here's a big hand for President Macron for visiting St. Martin. He loves to shake my hand. And 95% of St. Martin was leveled. But my house is OK. No problem there. Fabulous! And a big hand to the folks in my Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, Georgia, and South Carolina. All my people in the path of #Irma. Good going, you made it!

Carry On Brexit

The farce continues.

Chief champion of Brexit, Nigel Farage, very recently backed the German far-right AfD without a hint of irony. Suzanne Moore in the Guardian tells the bigger story.

Very recently tens of thousands of people in the UK marched to protest against Brexit.

Of course, if you're an EU citizen from one of the other 27 countries living and working in the UK, things are uncertain and uncomfortable.

“Everybody shrugs their shoulders and says ‘you’ll be all right, your husband’s British’. We’re fed up of hearing this. I don’t have a home to go back to. It’s not as if we’re teenagers going back to mum and dad, I’ve spent my whole adult life here. To tell us we have to be treated like criminals, have fingerprints, pass an English test, it’s insulting.

“This is an abuse of human rights and our family lives. Every day I am questioning do I want to remain in a country where the majority of British citizens are not speaking out for us?

“Why are they not on the street demonstrating? If this happened in France and there was such discrimination against British citizens, I would be out on the street.

Some of us have written letters, demonstrated, argued, donated to legal challenges etc. but there is more to be done. It's not over yet.

If Mrs May's government lasts into 2018 I'll be very surprised.

New book by #CrookedHillary came out today. Huge embarrassment! Already getting very bad reviews on the Amazon. A lot, a lot of reviews with one star. Because they don't allow zero stars! "This book deserves as many stars as Hillary has Presidential Election wins." #WINNING

September 11

Having a fabulous September 11, remembering the terrible, horrible time when George W. Bush was President. The World Trade Center came down during his reign. He was President, OK? Blame him, or don't blame him, but he was President. When you talk about George Bush, I mean, say what you want, the World Trade Center came down during his time. Not one Trump Airlines plane was hijacked, that day or EVER! Very, very safe. And now I'm keeping America safe. Have a good time, everybody. #NeverForget911 pic.twitter.com/erycJgj23r

Hail Farage!

The Guardian reports that Nigel Farage, former leader of UKIP and Brexit campaigner will address a far-right rally in Berlin on Friday.

The South East England MEP will appear at the Spandau Citadel in the west of the German capital to talk about “developments in the European Union, Brexit, direct democracy” and “how to make the impossible possible”, according to AfD MEP Beatrix von Storch, who is hosting the event.

A granddaughter of Hitler’s finance minister, Lutz von Krosigk, von Storch is a leading member of the anti-immigrant party, which has realistic aspirations to enter Germany’s parliament for the first time in federal elections on 24 September.

Godwin! See what I did there?

Farage speaks highly of that Nice Mr Putin:

In the run-up to Britain’s EU membership vote in June 2016, Farage said the then-US president, Barack Obama, had behaved “disgracefully” by warning on the economic consequences of a leave vote, and praised the Russian president, Vladimir Putin, who, he said, “maintained his silence throughout the whole campaign”.

And, of course, he didn't have a good word for those lily-livered liberals' next choice either:

Two months later Farage appeared at a rally with Donald Trump, where he stated: “I wouldn’t vote for Hillary Clinton if you paid me.”

Never mind, they way things are going in North Korea we might all be put out of our misery sooner rather than later.

Here's one. Putin, Farage and Trump walk into a bar. The barman says to Putin, "What can I get for you and your friends?" Putin looks the barman in the eye and replies, "I will have little water to toast great nation of Russia. I never met these two before. I don't know them from Adam." The barman replies, "Your vodka is on the house."

Everyone in #PuertoRico and especially #Florida, get out of there ASAP. Hurricane #Irma is coming. Category 6 storm & may go higher! Don't try to ride it out. Grab stocks, bonds, deeds, cash & evacuate! #MAGA

Thank you, @JPalomarez!

Javier Palomarez, thank you for your service! Believe me, I understand why you quit. I wish you hadn't, but I understand. Sometimes, with a multitude of issues going on, you don’t choose the right people. That's what happened when I chose Jeff Sessions. Big mistake! You can make a mistake in deals, and you work it out. When you're President, you make a mistake, there is nothing to work out. You know it's trouble. It could be big trouble. Trouble for lots of people, potentially. Picking Sessions was my biggest mistake. I had no idea he would recuse himself from the Russia investigation. Sessions should have never recused himself, and if he was going to recuse himself, he should have told me before he took the job, and I would have picked somebody else. And I had no idea he would cancel DACA. He did it behind my back. And he laughed about it. He thinks it's funny. It's not funny. Believe me, it's a big problem. For our fine young people. Our wonderful, wonderful dreamers. Our young illegals, thousands of people. And maybe a problem for our economy. Which Congress can fix. Which I'm counting on Congress to fix. Believe me, I do not favor punishing children, most of whom are now adults, for the actions of their parents. I'd love to fire Jeff Sessions, but my hands are tied. My hands are too big. And if I fired Sessions, it could blow up in my face. Because of the Russia thing. Javier, you did a terrific, terrific job at the National Diversity Coalition for Trump. I never forget my minority voters. Without the minority vote, I wouldn't have been elected. I never, never forget that. And I'll never forget your service. Good job!

Are you tired of typing things into your phone using a touchpad? Talking to the phone to write a text like some boomer? Swiping in words which never come out right like some preteen girl? Stuck between the freedom to charge your iphone anywhere and filing an insurance claim due to fire damage? Did your phone break when you tried to beat a small animal/insect to death?

You can still buy a blackberry. The Q10, Classic, Passport, Priv, and Keyone are all available and wonderful alternatives to anything else offered.

Here are the reasons why
1. Physical keyboard. Typing speed is faster and better. Don't have to deal with any of the shit of using a touch keyboard (although the physical keyboard does have touch functionalities for gestures on the priv).
2. You can kill literally anything with it. I threw it a fly and killed the fly, I threw it at a spider and killed a spider, I beat a bug to death against a wall and the phone still worked.
3. The interface is this fancy ass shit where you can swipe to the up-left/center/right to open preset applications
4. The hub for dealing with messages/emails is far superior than anything else that has ever existed.
5. Monthly patches to make sure everything stays working good forever
6. Passport/Classic/Q10 has a 1:1 ratio because they care about your experience.
7. You can flush it down the toilet, run over it with your truck, have it fall into snow, and drop it on concrete and there will be no problems at all. Minor scratches are character building.
8. When it does break its really easy to repair, no bs welded in battery.
9. They never break, you can have six or seven replacement phones because you want a new one and the old one still works fine.
10. BBOS is great and not android or apple.
11. Stock earbuds have these swappable heads with little loops on them and they actually stay in your ears really well.
12. Not bogged down by all the shitty apps you want but don't need (Unless on Priv or Keyone)
13. Lasted longer than Palm

You can still pick these up for pretty reasonable prices considering the quality you get out of them. If your main concern is an excellent phone that you can do email with, BB is best choice.

An Office Romance...

I'm usually not much of a writer, but by a strange and incredible turn of fate, I have a lot of time on my hands now.

Just the other day, my boss (a petite brunette with perky breasts and a great ass) called me in to her office, telling me she wanted to have a discussion. I knew what that meant, since she was always walking by my desk shaking that sweet ass in front of me. especially after the look of lust she gave me the day before when I slapped it as she walked by.

So finally, after three weeks, I was finally going to get a taste of of that hot bitch!

I went into her office, closed the door and drew the venetian blinds that looked out into the bullpen where us peons sat.

She looked up and said, "Please sit down. I hope you don't mind if I record our interaction." Sweet! Now she wants to make porn with me, I started getting quite sexually aroused as she started the webcam.

I said, "You look so hot today baby! I've been looking forward to this from the moment I met you, you sexy little ho!"

She replied, "I understand. It's was inevitable, almost from the day you started working here. And finally the moment has come."

I got up and started opening my pants. She slid back from her desk as I dropped my pants and began pulling down my underwear. "I've been wanting to get between those sexy legs so bad!" I said, starting to breathe heavily.

She stopped me by saying, "This isn't the right place for this."

I agreed, "Let's go into the ladies room so I can bend you over the sink, you sexy slut!"

My boss had other ideas. She said, "I've reserved a conference room for us, so put your pants back on and let's go."

That sexy bitch didn't have to ask twice! The image of her spread-eagled on the conference table was making me so hot!

We exited her office and walked down the hall toward the large conference room adjacent to the HR department. I checked my phone to make sure I had enough free space to video the "coming" encounter, just like she wanted.

We entered the conference room and I was surprised to see two burly security guards already there. I said, "Wow, honey! All three of us at once? You do love the cock, don't you?"

My boss paled a little. Obviously, all her blood was going to her loins, in expectation of the fun to come.

"We're just waiting on Leslie now," my boss said, referring to the head of HR. Today really was my lucky day! I was going to get to fuck both of those hot babes!

"Woo-hoo!" I exclaimed as Leslie walked in, looking sexier than ever. I started unbuttoning my shirt, when the security guards grabbed me and forced me into a chair at one end of the conference table and stood over me.

I said, "Ooh! bondage games! I love those! let's see those sweet pussies, girls!"

The women sat down at the other end of the table and then the meeting took a turn I never expected.

As I said, I have a lot of time on my hands now. Which is good, because both of those hot bitches are definitely going to call me soon!
