Back to Tucson

Posted by David Hardy · 15 January 2018 10:27 AM

Back from DC. I lived there for ten years, but had forgotten what the horrific weather was like. And how unpredictable it is.

Wednesday: forecast was for a high of 42 tomorrow.

Thursday: I fly in after 5 PM, and the temp is 62.

Friday: high about 70, and I'm sweating in a suit because humidity must be 100%. Literally, I saw masses of fog rising up from the Potomac, and I'd never seen that before.

Friday night: a cold front, highs from here on in the high 30s, but a biting 18 mph wind. I really needed an overcoat.

An interesting tale: On Friday I was filmed for the Jesse Ventura show. On the way back, I was driven by an Uber driver who was an immigrant from Morocco. He talked of Donald Trump. He worships Donald Trump. He told me that his other job was for the Trump hotel in DC, and that they pay even dishwashers $20/hour. He'd worked for other hotels, and none of them pays like that. And he gets great health insurance with Aenta, for free. He got so enthusiastic about it that he showed me his Aetna card to prove it. He said Trump was a great man who would lead the greatest country on earth.

I just wonder--where can we find more immigrants like my driver? I'd let them in 10,000 at a time.
