Mr. Keillor has given so many happy images of the mind in his career.  A thinking man in the reflective years of his life, it must be rough on his brain to see this act in our Presidency. He wrestles rationally with images to somehow find his way in the face of "this wildly ignorant man" and the knowledge that many fellow Americans actually buy the act. I am not in any way near as smart or as talented as Garrison yet his words tell me that I share the same pain. I am not alone. Thank you.

I look forward to the dirt and grime and pleasures of working with my hands while enjoying the natural world and will smile and laugh freely as this idiot does a free form tap dance 24/7 on what I have left of my intelligence. 

Where is Will Rogers? I need a rope trick and a friend who says the truth with a smile.
