Worth a look, traditionally a time for jokingly poking fun at each other.

A mate e-mailed me the ultimate conspiracy theory, which I dismissed. It was that Clinton would win the election, but be charged with an offence regarding the e-mail scandal, before taking office. This would open the way for Obama to step in, with the help of Congress, and remain President. I thought that was ridiculous, but this mate is a very smart man. Now I'm not so sure.

Follow the blog. A couple of interesting ones. A man wearing a balaclava is sitting at a table in Union square, selling bricks. Only in America. Also Women are flocking to the grave site of the leader of the American suffrage movement, who died in 1906, putting " I voted" stickers" on the gravestone. I don't think they voted for Trump.

Don't know if you know of Michael Moore. Not every ones cup of tea, but a brilliant man, in his own right. He predicted the result of this election, months ago. And predicted the reasons why. At the end of the following, there is a link to " Michael Moore in Trumpland". Worth viewing, for the entertainment value alone. Viewer warning, bad language [ but in context]. The way he works the crowd is pure gold. If MODS feel the need to move it, that's understandable. But please move it to the secret political dark corner. I know there are many here will get it, and enjoy it. I certainly did. So, [ drum roll, please]without further ado.....
