"...Ground Control to Major Don...."

One might assume any discussion, even mention, of David Bowie would be out of place in a posting on a politically oriented blog site.

One would be mistaken.

Watch how I do this.

Courtesy of a very old fashioned and long lived comedy technique.

Donald Trump....and David Bowie.

One man...an eccentric; an often misunderstood celebrity whose contributions to the culture provoked, at the very least, considerable conversation, even disagreement and, at worst, passionate opinions on both sides of the love/hate line; a one of a kind artist whose presentation incited as much as inspired; a cultural phenomenon whose popularity mystified many, angered some, but inexplicably rallied hundreds of thousands; a unique individual, some say freak, some even say alien, whose name will be remembered and both revered and reviled long after the names and/or contributions of his generational peers have faded into dust.

Or, perhaps, stardust.

Even stardust of the ziggy variety.

Oh...

And the other man?

David Bowie.

See how I did that?

Wham.

Bam.

Thank you, David.

May God's love be with you.
