This has to be the best attack, terrorists are getting so creative.

N’DJAMENA, CHAD

TARGET: No casualties; attacker arrested after opening fire at entrance of US Embassy

A man from Chad drove by some police officers and shot them with a BB gun. It drew little local or regional attention

Two-story ceilings are perhaps the dumbest thing mankind has invented. Impossible to clean and a waste of heating/cooling? I can't lose!

Two-stories are a pain. Who wants to climb stairs (other than to the basement with the pool table and man-cave).

I just built the big (custom designed by me) rambler.

Chicago Trib with a nice little human interest story from small town America:

Rural Wisconsin voters await economic revival in a part of now pro-Trump America

They voted for Trump for an array of reasons, and the list of grievances they hope he now corrects is long and exacting: stagnant wages, the cost of health care, a hard-to-define feeling that things are not getting better, at least not for people like them.

"If you ask anybody here, we'll all tell you the same thing: We're tired of living like this," said Mark Berns, leaning through the service window in the small-engine repair shop that he can barely keep open anymore.

Berns watched Trump's first days in office half-hopeful, half-frightened. He bemoaned what he described as Trump's quantity-over-quality, "sign, sign, sign" approach to governing.

"I just hope we get the jobs back and the economy on its feet, so everybody can get a decent job and make a decent living, and have that chance at the American dream that's gone away over the past eight or 10 years. I'm still optimistic," he said, sighing. "I hope I'm not wrong."

Across town, Robbo Coleman leaned over the bar he tends and described a similar political about-face. He held up an ink pen, wrapped in plastic stamped "Made in China."

"I don't see why we can't make pens in Prairie du Chien or in Louisville, Kentucky, or in Alabama or wherever," said Coleman.

Coleman doesn't love Trump's moves to build a wall or ban certain immigrants, but he's frustrated that other politicians stopped listening to working people like him.

"We've got to give him some time," he said. "He's not Houdini."

Farmer Bernard "Tinker" Moravits is also willing to wait and see.

Change is what he looked to Obama for and now expects from Trump. The price of milk and agricultural goods has plummeted, and it's getting harder to keep things running. He wants the president to reduce red tape and renegotiate trade deals to benefit American farmers.

He has several choice words for Trump's move to build "his stupid wall." Moravits employs Hispanic workers who have been with him 15 years. He trusts them to do a dirty, difficult job that he says white people aren't willing to do.

But unlike many transfixed by Trump's presidency, Moravits doesn't stay up-to-the-minute on the news.

"The play-by-play don't mean bull****," he said. "It's like watching the Super Bowl. What counts is how it ends."

Moravits isn't sure Trump is going to "Make America Great Again" for farmers. But he feels he had to take the gamble.

He laughed, then shrugged and pantomimed rolling the dice.

So we now know that one of the motives behind this POTUS is to make a lot of money being POTUS and FLOTUS. As if we didn't already know that.

At least we know that every public service will have profit motives behind it. Oh, yea, we knew that, too.

Good lord, the greed.
