Welcome to Buster's Blog

Irregular commentary on whatever's on my mind -- politics, sports, current events, and life in general. After twenty years of writing business and community newsletters, fifteen years of fantasy baseball newsletters, and two years of email "columns", this is, I suppose, the inevitable result: the awful conceit that someone might actually care to read what I have to say. Posts may be added often, rarely, or never again. As always, my mood and motivation are unpredictable.

Donald Corleone. Or Don Trump. Whichever.


"I can be presidential," said Donald Trump recently.  "But I gotta knock off two people first.  Then I gotta get 'unpresidential' against Hillary."

"Then I'll act presidential.  I'll be so presidential, the most presidential!  It'll be unbelievable, OK?  Huge!  The best!  Believe me, people will love me being presidential."

Right.

The "knocking off" phrase put me in mind of The Godfather saga:

"Believe me, Kay, the family business will be completely legitimate in two years.  But first I gotta whack Tessio, Barzini, and Moe Greene."
