Corpse Flower In Bloom For 36 Hours

The

Conventions

 are finally over.

It is time now to sit by

and watch the

Candidates

say the nastiest things they can about each other.

Usually,

it starts off slow.

Where the

Candidates

talk about the issues

and what their plan is to fix the problems facing our

Nation.

Then,

just around the time the first

Presidential Debate

rolls around,

the

Candidate

who is behind in the

Polls

will have some dirt on the other

Candidate

and come out firing away with both barrels.

Hoping this will jump start their campaign again.

*****

If you were not moved by the speech that

Khizr Khan

gave about his son,

Army Captain Humayun Khan,

who lost his life fighting for the

United States

in

Iraq

a decade ago,

you do not have a heart or soul.

*****

I could talk about 

Donald Trump's

reaction to the

Democratic NationalConvention,

but I feel there is a more pressing story needed to be told.

"New York enjoys rare phenomenon of a Corpse Flower in bloom."
By James Rogers for FoxNews.com
"Famous for its highly pungent odor, which has been compared to the smell of rotting meat, the Amorphopallus Titanum, or corpse flower, has a highly unpredictable bloom cycle. Native to Sumatra in Indonesia, a specimen of the flower first bloomed in the Western Hemisphere at the New York Botanical Garden in 1937. A second specimen bloomed at the site in 1939. The flower, which uses its stench to attract pollinators that feed on dead animals, has been carefully nurtured by Botanical Garden staff for almost a decade."

Wow,

a plant that smells like rooting flesh!

Well,

we missed it.

"Here's looking at, but not smelling, you kid."

Now wasn't that a story worth reading?

Better then the rotting smell we are going to get from the two

Presidential Candidates

later this year when they start using

Smear Campaigns

against each other.

This is,

Justin Bieber Turned Down $5M Dollars To Show Up At The Republican National Convention.

I Like Him More And More All The Time.

Jim Hauenstein,

And,

"Here's looking at you kid." - Humphrey Bogart -

That is my story and I am sticking to it!
