The 2020 election is shaping up to be quite the crap-show. In Pennsylvania between the courts and election officials, officials are not allowed to reject mailed in ballots over signature problems[1] and judges are required to accept and count ballots through the Friday after election, regardless of the postmark.[2] Also in Pennsylvania, the court kicked the Green Party off the ballot on a technical foul, refusing the party an opportunity to correct the error.[3] For the record the Green Party cost Al Gore Florida and the Presidency in 2000.
In Michigan, ballots postmarked the day before the election must be counted for the next two weeks after the election which really complicates certifying the results.[4]
Democrats have been publicly and loudly vowing their intentions to thoroughly litigate the results of the 2020 election if it goes against them. These are just the opening shots. Lawgivers in other blue states are making noises about further shenanigans and movement of the election goal posts.
The 2020 election stands to make the 2000 election look like a cake walk.
With all that in mind, there is a better than even chance, at least some part of this election will end up in with the Supreme Court. Probably on an emergency hearing basis.
I don't think there is any way we should go into election day one justice light on the high court. What do you think?

So... It turns out one can load the bingo card into a spreadsheet. That's good as I don't have to tote around one more piece of paper to lose track of and I can check it whenever I open the computer, even on the road at a truck stop. However it is bad because it would be possible to manipulate the data and call bingo in five draws should one so inclined choose to be stunningly obvious in their cheatin'.
So, under the heading of keeping everything above board, here's the card I started out with. https://drive.google.com/file/d/18sSvj9ZCAM54kKllJqu4Va72cUYohZpX/view?usp=sharing

National Cherries Jubilee Day
National Cherries Jubilee Day on September 24 celebrates a very unique dessert that deserves more love! Cherries jubilee is a dish that involves cherries and liqueur, usually a brandy or Kirschwasser. Originally, the cherries were simply poached in a sugary syrup and served with warm brandy, which was set on fire for a dramatic presentation as it was served to guests. Modern recipes serve the cherries with ice cream, but the fire has remained a key part of this dish. Cherries jubilee was first served at one of the jubilee celebrations of Queen Victoria and the popularity for the dessert skyrocketed during her reign. It was considered a highly fashionable dessert to offer one’s guests. The dessert made a comeback in the 1950s and 1960s, and now this classic dessert has earned itself a new brand of retro prestige. For National Cherries Jubilee Day on September 24, we invite you to join us in indulging in this most dramatic of desserts.
NATIONAL CHERRIES JUBILEE DAY ACTIVITIES
Order yourself some cherries jubilee
A number of restaurants have started to offer this classic dessert again, now that cherries jubilee has transitioned from a popular dish of the 1950s to a retro-fabulous dessert in modern times. Check around your local restaurants and find a place that serves cherries jubilee near you. On September 24, make a point to visit that restaurant and try out cherries jubilee for yourself. Even better, bring a friend and share the experience. Just don't invite anyone with a fear of fire!
Make cherries jubilee at home
Recipes do vary, but you can find any number of easy recipes online to try out your first homemade cherries jubilee. Pick up some fresh cherries and pit them, or skip the prep work and snag a bag of frozen cherries. Simmer your cherries in some water, add sugar, and when the water thickens up into a syrupy sauce, you're ready to stir in your liqueur and serve. Use an ice cream of your choice (vanilla is the classic option here), and don't forget the fire! A stick lighter will protect your hands from flare-ups, and be sure to let the flames burn out before digging in.
Host your own jubilee
A jubilee is a fancy party, usually where everyone wears big hats. Jubilees are traditionally hosted to celebrate the 25th or 50th anniversary of something, like a queen's reign, a business inception, or a wedding. But National Cherries Jubilee Day gives you all the excuse you need to throw your own jubilee. Send out some invitations, pick up some swanky classical tunes, and encourage your guests to show up in powdered wigs. And of course, be sure to serve cherries jubilee for dessert.
WHY WE LOVE NATIONAL CHERRIES JUBILEE DAY
It has cherries
Cherries are one of America's favorite berries, and we have hundreds of cherry-themed dishes to prove it. But unlike the cherry pie, cherry salad, cherry-cranberry jelly, cherried pork, and dozens of other desserts, starters, and even main courses that incorporate this very beloved berry, cherries jubilee has some royal history behind it. As one of the desserts served at the jubilees of Queen Victoria in the late 1800s, cherries jubilee not only delivers on the cherries, but it does so with regal dignity and royal style.
It has fire
Did we mention cherries jubilee is served on fire? This classic dessert is served a flambé, which means that the dish is literally set alight when it hits the table. Though dramatic and impressive, this fire doesn't really affect the taste of the dessert. After the cherries are poached in syrup, they are mixed with alcohol, traditionally brandy or the modern substitution of Kirschwasser liqueur. When the dish is set on fire, this alcohol burns so quickly that the flames flare up and burn out without damaging the cherries at all. The end result is a warmer, more caramelized cherry concoction that still has some of that liqueur flavor left over.
Also, ice cream
Though Queen Victoria never served her cherries jubilee dessert with ice cream, modern technology has made ice cream so easily accessible that we really couldn't help adding ice cream into the mix. Vanilla ice cream is typically served with cherries jubilee, but some daring restaurants have branched out, offering up new versions of this sweet treat. Cherries jubilee with cherry ice cream delivers an all-out cherry blast, and for chocolate-cherry lovers there are versions with chocolate ice cream. There's even a version with pistachio!

It is absolutely stunning these miserable excuses for military men are endorsing a man that cannot string together more then three coherent sentences in row. And that's with the aid of a teleprompter. They are endorsing a man who, at best, is toeing the line of a political party the actively supports the people trying to undermine everything from freedom of speech they disagree with to any support for any police anyware, all the way up to the destroying any chance of a fair election. At worse he is a puppet of those who are materially and financially supporting the terrorists looting and burning our cities.
A man that is so out of it, he actually got it right when he called his own ticket "The Harris Biden Ticket." He got it right because the odds of him actually finishing this term are slim and none.
And those are just Biden's good points.
Clearly the President's policies of cutting the waste from military spending is cutting into their stock options and golden parachutes.
Who names these critters? The same people that name prescription drugs? How do you even say that?

Most, if not all, Scientific animal names are in Latin and follow some sort of pattern.
Prescription drug names on the other hand, make zero sense. Working in a Pharmacy I'm convinced the companies throw scrabble tiles at a wall and use whatever sticks.

***** Texas Saturday Breakfast *****
Ob Boy Boy-o, Show us the Tacos! Saturday Breakfast In Place time! Bring out the Drones! The NewTexas Happy Taco Stands, in conjunction with the NewTexas Incendiary Corporation, has approximately 1 trillion of the fastest, lightest drones you have ever seen. This fleet is specially designed to deliver tacos to every man, woman, child, whatever, in Texas, all 2,383,526,000,000 of you.
Today's special breakfast will Saturday Black Bean & Cheese con Huevos Breakfast Tacos [COVID-19 Week XXVII Edition]! We have given the Head Smoker at The Big Tex Happy Taco Stands of NewTexas the weekend off and have been up all night with cast-iron skillets numbering in the millions refrying black beans that we simmered all day long yesterday in our patented super-secret process. All night, we smashed them and fried them in lard for an up-scale mess of refried goodness. We simply smear them on a hot, homemade, Texas-sized flour tortilla, top it with some fancy Oaxaca Jack and pile on the organic, hand-picked, farm-fresh Texas Grade AA Eggs, scrambled to perfection. Yumm! Remember, a whole egg in every taco!®
Today's Special Salsa is Salsa Roja - the universal Texas salsa! This is so simple, it is virtually Pico that is cooked down. Nothing to it really - ripe red Roma tomatoes, white onion, serrano, cilantro, and salt. The taco is hermetically-sealed in a Stay-Warm® pouch that is wrapped in the same ol' aluminum foil we are all so familiar with for our breakfast taco. We are trying to keep it real, peeps. For your beverage accompaniment, a packet of Sanka, Tang and a Lipton Tea bag will be included with every delivery as well as salt and pepper and a napkin. Yes, it is different, but it works and you do not even have to leave your residence. Woo! And, watch out for the drones! Start your day off the right way; munch out and go back to sleep. You know you want to!®
Stay Safe Texas. Stay Well.
