Recently, radio commentator Rush Limbaugh said that cutting taxes to US president Obama is like the Holy Cross to (Count) Dracula. US recovery hinges on providing tax cuts to create employment helping lift poverty. Former president Bush wanted to cut taxes for rich business owners.
This Photo was taken on a short trip to Washington, D.C. Walking around our Nation's Capitol Downtown area, I came across this man very much in concentration on counting his change. Hopefully he has enough...

This was our New Year lunch and Jodi's birthday lunch (though only the solar calendar, so it didn't really count!).
Just a portrait this time.
And a cool song;
"You think the birds are pretty
and you sleep eight hours a night.
And I'm fog, out of the city,
and still you stake it all.
And trains stop for you and so do the boys,
when you run your fingers through your hair.
But resistance is futile.
And I am gonna drink your blood.
And I am gonna drink your blood.
And I am gonna drink your blood.
And I am gonna drink your blood.

Yesterday I attended the funeral for the Mother of a very old friend. We have grown apart, but I care about her. When I learned her Mother had passed I knew I had to go. I was a little nervous about who I might see. In particular the boy above, my first lover. I was thrown out of the house over him. Estranged from my own Mother for 3 years while I lived with him. Turned out she was right about him, but I had to find out for myself. He was possessive, jealous, and had an explosive temper. He didn't like to work, and he loved to smoke dope, but he had some good qualities too, like most people. He loved nature and hiking, and appreciated my creative nature. we had some great adventures together. After 30 years I certainly hold him no ill will. Anyhow I'd heard he got married, had 2 daughters, and it seemed had got his shit together. I guess he did for awhile, but apparently it didn't hold. I was surprised not to see him at the funeral, and found out indirectly that his wife divorced him about 3 years ago, and he is now living on the streets of Baltimore. That blindsided me. It also made me take stock of my good fortune. I too am a self destructive person with addictive tendencies. I could easily have fallen through the cracks but...
I have an amazing man that taught me unconditional love is possible.
I have an amazing Mother in Law and deceased Father in Law that that also taught me this.
I have a beautiful safe home, even if we don't own much of it.
I have kick ass friends that prop me up when I need it, and are always there for me.
I have the possibility of an art career which is my dream.
I have good health.
The list goes on, but for now these are the main things.
I cannot express how grateful I am, it is beyond words.
Lastly, Thank You to those of you here that have supported and encouraged me. It is so appreciated.
May you find your way Buzz. This is for you.
This is also for you Steve. Thank you for my life!

"Černín Palace is a large palatial, originally early Baroque building located in Prague 1, Hradčany, Loretánské náměstí (opposite Loreto). Since 1934, it has served as the seat of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of both the former Czechoslovakia and the Czech Republic. Together with the Černín Garden, the palace is protected as a cultural monument.
The palace was built by Austrian diplomat Count Humprecht Jan Černín from Chudenice after 1664 (where he also later moved his family collection here) - hence its name. It is one of the largest Baroque buildings in Prague. The building was destroyed during the War of the Austrian Succession in the 1840s, and again in 1757, when it was damaged by Prussian artillery. Thanks to this, the palace also went through a series of late Baroque reconstructions and additional reconstructions. It was also rebuilt by the Nazis during World War II.
From 1777, the palace no longer served its original purpose (in 1778, the important picture gallery of the Černín family was auctioned off) and was used for various other purposes, including as an infirmary with a pharmacy, a shelter for the poor, a tenement house, workshops, a barracks, and an art gallery.
Between 1928 and 1934, it was partially rebuilt under the direction of architect Pavel Janák. Between 1933 and 1939, the modern extension of the palace took place with the so-called Janák's extension, where the majority of the administrative departments of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic are still located.
The palace itself has a rather gloomy history from the point of view of modern Czech history, during the period of the so-called Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia from 1939 to 1945, the seat of the acting Reich Protector for Bohemia and Moravia was located here, on March 10, 1948, he died here under circumstances that are still not entirely clear former Minister of Foreign Affairs Jan Masaryk, who also had his apartment here; was found in the morning in what is now Jan Masaryk's courtyard.
In the early 1990s, a treaty was signed in the Czernin Palace to dissolve the Warsaw Pact.
Hradčany (German: Hradschin) is an urban district and cadastral territory of Prague with an area of 1.5 km², divided between city districts and at the same time the city districts of Prague 1 and Prague 6. A significant part of the district is occupied by Prague Castle, one of the most famous castles in Europe and, according to the Guinness Book of Records, the largest castle complex in the world. Hradčany was an independent town until 1784, when it became part of the united royal capital of Prague.
Hradčany includes the area of Prague Castle, the territory of the historic city around Hradčanské and Loretánské náměstí, Pohořelec, the area of Strahov Monastery and Nový Svět, as well as the area of the former Marian Walls forming an arc from the western edge of Letenská plain to the top of Petřín.
Prague 6 includes a strip of territory defined by tram lines in Dlabačov, Keplerova, Jelení, Mariánské hradby, Badeni, Milada Horáková, Patočkova and Myslbekova streets. The cadastral territory Hradčany is adjacent to Střešovice to the northwest, Dejvice to the north, Mala Strana to the east, Smíchov (a small strip of territory) to the south, and Břevnov to the southwest.
Prague (/ˈprɑːɡ/ PRAHG; Czech: Praha [ˈpraɦa]; German: Prag [pʁaːk]; Latin: Praga) is the capital and largest city of the Czech Republic and the historical capital of Bohemia. On the Vltava river, Prague is home to about 1.3 million people. The city has a temperate oceanic climate, with relatively warm summers and chilly winters.
Prague is a political, cultural, and economic hub of central Europe, with a rich history and Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque architectures. It was the capital of the Kingdom of Bohemia and residence of several Holy Roman Emperors, most notably Charles IV (r. 1346–1378) and Rudolf II (r. 1575–1611).
It was an important city to the Habsburg monarchy and Austro-Hungarian Empire. The city played major roles in the Bohemian and the Protestant Reformations, the Thirty Years' War and in 20th-century history as the capital of Czechoslovakia between the World Wars and the post-war Communist era.
Prague is home to a number of well-known cultural attractions, many of which survived the violence and destruction of 20th-century Europe. Main attractions include Prague Castle, Charles Bridge, Old Town Square with the Prague astronomical clock, the Jewish Quarter, Petřín hill and Vyšehrad. Since 1992, the historic center of Prague has been included in the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites.
The city has more than ten major museums, along with numerous theatres, galleries, cinemas, and other historical exhibits. An extensive modern public transportation system connects the city. It is home to a wide range of public and private schools, including Charles University in Prague, the oldest university in Central Europe.
Prague is classified as a "Alpha-" global city according to GaWC studies. In 2019, the city was ranked as 69th most livable city in the world by Mercer. In the same year, the PICSA Index ranked the city as 13th most livable city in the world. Its rich history makes it a popular tourist destination and as of 2017, the city receives more than 8.5 million international visitors annually. In 2017, Prague was listed as the fifth most visited European city after London, Paris, Rome, and Istanbul.
Bohemia (Latin Bohemia, German Böhmen, Polish Czechy) is a region in the west of the Czech Republic. Previously, as a kingdom, they were the center of the Czech Crown. The root of the word Czech probably corresponds to the meaning of man. The Latin equivalent of Bohemia, originally Boiohaemum (literally "land of Battles"), which over time also influenced the names in other languages, is derived from the Celtic tribe of the Boios, who lived in this area from the 4th to the 1st century BC Bohemia on it borders Germany in the west, Austria in the south, Moravia in the east and Poland in the north. Geographically, they are bounded from the north, west and south by a chain of mountains, the highest of which are the Krkonoše Mountains, in which the highest mountain of Bohemia, Sněžka, is also located. The most important rivers are the Elbe and the Vltava, with the fertile Polabean Plain extending around the Elbe. The capital and largest city of Bohemia is Prague, other important cities include, for example, Pilsen, Karlovy Vary, Kladno, Ústí nad Labem, Liberec, Hradec Králové, Pardubice and České Budějovice, Jihlava also lies partly on the historical territory of Bohemia." - info from Wikipedia.
