In case you missed it, former presidential candidate, a Trump lap boy and least popular governor in America continued his bully pulpit, this last time while holding a snack which, as we can all plainly see, he clearly does not need to feed himself with.

Have anyone ever seen anyone guard their nachos as fiercely as Christie?
Does it remind you of this TV classic? Nacho Man Commercial - 1990's https://youtu.be/JiEk1zew0UE

National Lighthouse Day recognizes efforts to preserve lighthouses as important historical symbols in America by
paying tribute to lighthouses from sea to shining sea.

Today is National Lighthouse Day, a good time for trivia about the 400-plus maritime markers. Their purpose in today's digital age remains the same as when a rudimentary beacon went up in Massachusetts in 1673 keeping ships from running aground.

Establishing a federal system of lighthouses was one of the earliest acts of the first gathering of Congress, passed on Aug. 7, 1789. To commemorate, they're on vacation.

Time To Act Now

TIME WAITS FOR NO ONE

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.
