My excuses:
Although I don’t get paid, I really want to accept Cuba back into a position of dialogue and trade. Celebrate with a Kool and the Gang song, or:

Caveat: My wife Lucia penciled a sketch of my portrait last night. I looked like a cross between a leprechaun [my view] and a little devil [hers].
Nixon and Obama are the closest things to benevolent dictators you’re ever gonna get [see, Public Trust doctrines].
Men that build to the sky and tear up the ground [See Bad Company’s “Rock and Roll Fantasy”].
If you don’t have individual rights, you’ll still retain your inclusion as a citizen of the state to the state’s rights under the U.S. Constitution.
I think it was 2016 politics. My uncle Ron would have said, “You made the right choice John.”
between this and that, I choose you.

I was thinking of something specific, but Lucia made me choose her “livestream.”
Reference: Ozzy Osbourne’s “I Just Want You”
See also, “You might not like what you find there Taylor.” Dr. Zaius to Taylor regarding remnants in the “forbidden zone”, “Planet of the Apes”(1968).
There’s a correlation here: Gerald Ford, Donald Rumsfeld, George W. Bush, Condoleeza Rice, the hippocratic oath: “DO NO HARM”.
The conservative priest told me in confession making out with women was wrong and to stop doing it. How was I to know where the line was between mutual pleasure and abuse [using women to satisfy my lust]? Weren’t we all searching for “love” back then. It was in many a song. A lover once told me, “You always want what you can’t have.” Stanford.
Legend:
Donald Rumsfeld: Solitaire
Ford: Keeping it cool and out of the spotlight
Rice: Piano
W: Painting, stingray motocross
For instance, as opposed to Trump [Make America Great Again; “Until we find out what in the hell is going on?”]
ancillary: Did Nixon query so?

CHAD, County Sheriff of San Bernardino Co. gets my virtual vote. Although Protestants have personality, Catholics seem to be more DOGE-LIKE. Charity is more rampant at #PepperdineCaruso. Furious indignation. Italian-Americans are equals. CHAD is RAD. Post-commentary by John Rubens: subtext: Although Protestants have personality, Catholics seem to be more DOGE-LIKE.

Maybe subconsciously, @KennyPolcari helped me make these posts. Re: Lawyers, Insurance, currency. #LennonMcCartney “I want money.” LENNON: Look you son-of-an American. PAUL: Too bad the Americans never understood John.
