Dislike it intensely when people use the words “I had a conversation with”, “We will have conversations”
and the words “We have a “relationship” or “we have a good working relationship”
“We are having or plan to have conversations etc.”
All the years we participated in public service when people used those words it usually meant someone was going to get shafted [in a non-physical way of course] very badly.
In other words someone was going to “use someone” to get what they want.
What words can we use in your opinion can be said to mean the same as “conversation and relationship” without the negative connotation of those words????
Please let me know asap so I can substitute other, better, more positive words to replace conversation and relationship” in my vocabulary and ask others to do the same..
On the brighter side enjoyed good Chislic at Freeman Chislic Festival today. What a wonderful event!!!!
Also, briefly interrupted Congressman “Half Dusty” Johnson’s campaigning tactics twice today.
Had the opportunity to give him a hard time today about his bill to fast-track the CO2 pipelines while he and his staffer were lining people up for photo ops
[in a cordial way of course…….]
and then again questioned his votes to cut funding to public education and public broadcasting
[in a cordial way of course…….]
right after he got done serving beer at the Firemen’s Beer booth
at the Freeman Chislic festival today in Freeman.
Half Dusty truly has become a smooth false prophet, sad to say……………….
But don’t forget, Dusty claims that all of these cuts are just “integrity” cuts:

( and Woodstock adds: “Say, do you think that’s why Dusty is now running for governor, so he can hide from all of this?” ….. 🙂 )
Noem was just spotted at Scheels. I wonder if she and her Secret Service agents took up all of the seats on the Ferris wheel?
And Father Frank says to son Dusty… “How many times do I have to tell you that you should never borrow my prized Corvette for things like this fair without my prior approval?”…. #63’SplitWindowBaby! #LittleRedCorvette
