Happy Happy Birthday Juanita Jo!!

Another year with so much to show

Another woman stepping up to the plate

That knows solutions just won’t wait

Headin’ to Richmond, it’s ripe for change

Greedy ole boy’s club needs a big rearrange

Standing up for equal rights for all

Fighting to make drug prices fall

Building a green future, one not burning oil

Demanding a living wage, for honest toil

Working so when you’ve paid for your crime

You still have a say, come election time

Thanks for battling a system based on greed

Toward one of science, logic and need

I’ve long admired your insight & dedication

In the past and into the future to education

Birthday girl, you’re needed right now down in RVA

To keep common sense from eroding away

To keep better broad band heading our way

So for our health care, we can afford to pay

So, fewer folks die from guns each day

And, for what we’d all really like to say

So, republican greed & corruption GOES AWAY

Thank you Juanita Jo, have a very Happy Birthday!

Clouds are thinning, no chance of rain

Another gorgeous day, hard to complain

Nice little breeze, not much leaf-fall yet

That day's coming, on that you can bet

Above average day on planet of shakes

But, California & Puerto Rico takes

Up much of list today,

Fault adjustments underway

5.5 quake, Pacific-Antarctic rift

Lava giving plates a shift

Rest of Rim, subduction the plan

Pretty good shake in Afghanistan

Hawaiian quakes, a new eruption?

Over a year, no new island construction

Clear skies, gibbous moon will be bright

Means only bright stars will be in sight

Should be lovely, get out, take a peak

Always good, Earth reality to seek

Happy Birthday and, thanks, Juanita Jo

🎂

If wise folks vote, to RVA you'll go

Keep up the good fight

Today on Earth
