Reminds me of the episode of M_A_S_H_ when Frank Burns got himself a Purple Heart because he got a “shell fragment” in his eye. It was a fragment of hard-boiled egg shell. :rolleyes: In the end Hawkeye wound up taking the medal away from Frank and giving it to a newborn Korean baby who had been wounded _in the womb_ of his mom before birth. That show could really get to ya. ---

I don’t know where to post this 2-week old story but [Trump needs to practice his teleprompter reading](https://youtu.be/DHXZLAFf67w?t=532). He lauds “the abolition of civil rights” as one of “our greatest strides”! ---
