4 years ago, I went to bed feeling good, tonight I won't allow it

Many of you probably did the same thing. Trump was ahead when you went to bed and in the morning biden was the winner.

I am getting that deja feeling all over again. It is interesting to watch the "called" races, particularly because no 2 networks have the same numbers which means the whole thing is just bullshit. 

By my guess the counters in the swing states will start stopping for the night in about an hour and 20 minutes and who knows what will happen then.

There is a cure for that happening again and that is to have the ballots counted, not tabulated, just counted, as in "we have 2,123,456 ballots cast in the election that remain to be tabulated". Then they can't say, "we found" 400,000 more ballots and our guy won. 

The mail in ballot situation is completely ridiculous and I would bet if California were to be forced to show up to vote the democrats would lose control of the state.

To wine or not to wine?

The local store is having a pretty good sale on sirloin tips starting tomorrow. That made me think of beef tips on noodles. I saw several recipes that involved a bit of red wine. Hmm..red wine imparts a unique flavor to a beef gravy but I get tired of that taste quickly. I'd probably make a small batch so that's not a problem.
What do you guys think, wine or no wine in the gravy?
