Artificial irrelevance

Rick Henderson: I'm a Westerner by choice, Southerner by birth. Political writer/reporter/editor for 30+ years. Another decade in hospitality industry. Started a local chapter of a global music festival. Moved with my amazing spouse to the Southwest for peace of mind. I'm the world's okayest ukulele player (as the saying goes), friend of domesticated animals, and ordered liberty. MAGA-free since 2015.
