The art is by Sheila Squillante, and it’s perfect. I’m humbled. The only other time a magazine has commissioned original art to accompany my work was for "Rainbow Dogs," the companion to this piece. I’ve been trying to reunite the stories for 18 years. Came close this time.

Congratulations to @bond_jamy and fellow finalist @butcallmebetsy.

Former President Trump on wind energy: “Darling, let's watch the President's State of the Union speech tonight. I'm sorry, we won't be able to do it. The wind isn't blowing, darling. We have no electricity. We have no electricity, darling. We won't be able to watch tonight, but perhaps sometime during the week it will be blowing and we'll be able to get our television on.”
