THE LIGHTER SIDE

God bless America, and how’s everybody?

■ San Francisco delayed its plans to rename schools named after Washington and Lincoln over their racial insensitivity. Meanwhile, Coca-Cola, founded by an ex-Confederate colonel, just ordered workers to act less white. America hasn’t lost all its marbles, but there’s definitely a hole in the bag.

■ President Biden framed the COVID Relief Bill as a way to help bail out shut-down businesses. Some were selectively spared. It’s my belief the Comedy Store in Hollywood would have remained open every night during the past 11 months if Mitzi had only named it the Grocery Store.

■ The Weather Channel reported that Texas weather is gradually returning to normal, with rising temperatures. Last week opened up a lot of eyes in Texas. It turns out Ted Cruz does understand having to take your family across the border to escape intolerable living conditions.
