It's President's Day and I found it to be a slow posting day.
About 60% of the United States has a deadly weather event happening in real time. There is a major winter storm that spreads across the country that has the potential to shut power off to 150 million Americans.
We still have a global pandemic. The coronavirus pandemic has killed over 500,000 Americans and there's no sign of the pandemic ending. Even with the vaccines being rolled out, folks are being either delayed to get them or having reservations about the outcome.
The President of the United States, Joe Biden returns from Camp David to head to the White House. He spent the Valentine's Day weekend with his family at the resort in Maryland.
The president declared a natural disaster in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and Louisiana.
I am pretty much bored right now.
What is there to cover on this holiday?

| The peaceful transfer of power. Then president George W. Bush introduces Barack Obama with his father, George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter. |
I mean we do honor the 45 men who had the opportunity to be the President of the United States.
From George Washington to Joe Biden, 45 men had an opportunity to live at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
The President of the United States is the biggest job for one person. Many who held the title had dealt with issues where a decision could impact the world.
