Will Rudy and Trump Share a Cell?

There’s this very funny moment in the great movie Get Shorty, when Chili Palmer’s dimwit assistant tells Chili (played by John Travolta) he’s only sleeping nights in a recliner because he’s read somewhere that most people die while they are sleeping in their beds.

Now hold that thought in mind while I talk about an article sent to me yesterday by my eagle-eyed sister the lawyer, about Rudy Giuliani finally being served a subpoena to appear in an Arizona court to answer charges about his role in yet another stupid scheme to send some fake electors to D.C. to overturn the Electoral College count on January 6th 2021.

The subpoena team, which has been trying to locate Rudy and serve him with the demand that he appear in court on May 21st, finally caught up with him and served him at an 80th birthday bash in Palm Springs. The party had just about ended but some of the guests were still around at the home of a GOP finagler named Caroline Wren and one of the guests broke down in tears.

But what caught my attention was a gift registry on Amazon which listed such items as lamps, a comforter and a home sleeper chair which converts into a bed.

Now don’t these gifts read like the kinds of things that someone needs who will soon be looking for a new place to live?
