Chicago 2020

Millie Tarry popped a balloon
But it popped a little too soon
The sudden noise
Upset some boys
Who were blowing up The Tribune

Wish I could see more about this on the news, Rico. Everything seems to focus on politics. Thanks for bringing attention to this! Hugs, Carolyn

Trump exists to be Number 1 in the daily news, so don't expect to see peace nor integrity any time soon! Aloha! Rico

Good one. Lotsa news today on the chicago looters. My husband is so anxious hearing this stuff, I think he is gonna pop more of his Xanex.

Hope not, Andrea. Xanax is awful. I'm not seeing as much news coverage of the Chicago looting as you are.
