just an average winter day in Decorah, Iowa
*via a HS friend of my wife. Decorah is noted for its eagles (and Norwegians, and Toppling Goliath beer)
I seek neither power nor fortune, but the eagles have spoken
I don't need no Secret Service, I got me a 6 pack of mf EAGLES
Alas, I cannot tell a lie, this is not *my* porch. I'm not sure if the Chosen of the Eagles wants his name revealed. In any case, for hot live Eagle-on-Eagle action, check out the Decorah EagleCam

explore.org/livecams/bald-…
Some people get bald eagles on their porch, I get cigarette-stealing squirrels and alcoholic possums
FACT: there is no such thing as eagle poop, it's called FREEDOM FERTILIZER. When you plant it with corn it grows into unicorns
Fitting pallbearers to carry a great American to his final rest #RIP

I am for hire, but only as a traveling companion to elderly dowagers
It's much like being on Bloomberg's social media team, but with more dignity
If you are a heiress or dowager 75+, I have immediate companionship bookings available for steamship travel to Europe and the Far East, starting at $2000* per day plus wardrobe allowance.

*tango, fox trot, and cha-cha lesson extra

So if Clint Eastwood and Kirk Douglas have gone for Bloomberg, Cher is for Biden, John Voight is for Trump, and Dick Van Dyke is for Bernie, who will get the Olivia de Havilland and Betty White endorsements
I don't have any official celebrity endorsements yet for #Burge2020, but my people are in talks with Jerry Lee Lewis and Little Richard
Just watch my campaign momentum once I get Phil Spector aboard the Burge Train

🇺🇸🇺🇸Winter Solstice🇺🇸🇺🇸
..occurs when the Earth's poles has its maximum tilt away from the Sun. This day is the shortest period of daylight and longest night of the year, when the Sun is at its lowest daily maximum elevation in the sky. At the pole, continuous darkness/twilight..
1) Since prehistory, this has been a significant time of year in many cultures, and marked by festivals and rituals as the symbolic death/rebirth of the Sun. The seasonal significance of is the reversal of the gradual lengthening of nights and shortening of days..
2) The solstice was a special moment in the annual cycle for some cultures even during neolithic times. These events guided activities, like mating of animals, sowing of crops, and monitoring of reserves of food. Many cultural mythologies and traditions are derived from this...

I wrote a book called Goliath about the war between monopoly power and democratic movements in the 20th century. The final version arrived in the mail so here's a picture of it. It's really fun and you should pre-order it. simonandschuster.com/books/Goliath/…
My experience writing a book is that it's a lot more fun to have written a book than to write one.
I wrote it because I was working in Congress during the financial crisis and I slowly realized we were facing not just a technical problem with banks but a political crisis. And I was totally confused, as were all my friends. I usually look to history when I'm confused.

Biggest cheer during @iowademocrats chair @troymprice's opening remarks came after he predicted #Iowa Ds will "send @joniernst into an early retirement." #IASen #HallofFame
Sen @CoryBooker is 1st candidate to speak at #HallofFame event. (19 candidates will each have 5 minutes)
"We are being tested. This is a moral moment in America, and we must meet this test. I'm running for president because we can't take 4 more years of Donald Trump." #iacaucus
But @CoryBooker isn't just running to beat Donald Trump. That's the floor, not the ceiling. We can't just run on what we are against. Democrats need to tell people what we are for. "Every American needs health care, and make no mistake, abortion is health care." #iacaucus

Birthday Poem
1/5
Ten years ago, the whitepaper's released
Is Satoshi still out there, alive or deceased?

Many lost money with the fall of MtGox
Trust me says 'Jesus', we need bigger blocks!

Suits in New York said it's miners that 'voted'
With SW2X our objections were #noted
2/5
 Shaolinfry released code, let us stand up and fight
The power of nodes would soon come to light

Samson made hats and others they bought them
This was one way the community fought 'em

Nodes were updated, articles written
Luke-jr fought hard, that was a given
3/5
 The1Brand7 wrote a wonderful piece
'bout money and nodes and value increase

Segwit went live, free from its captor
The price soared high off community rapture

Twenty, no six... does the price really matter?
Be it low or high (I prefer the latter)

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

National politics correspondent for Newsweek, Nina Burleigh, with a fun find on a TV above the bar at the Trump Hotel DC bit.ly/2E37QRR
Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full
