Obstruction of justice is not yet a charge.
Lying will not help Trump.

‘I Was Right’: As Trump Watches Comey on TV, Anxiety Yields to Relief
President Trump exhibited default defiance as he watched part of James B. Comey’s testimony, during a day packed with meetings to keep him occupied and off Twitter."Mr. Comey is a wily bureaucratic infighter, a sometimes self-righteous official who wrote his notes with care so they would remain unclassified, and therefore eligible to be released to the public."

I don't know what you need out of the relationship.
I want a person I can trust with a durable power of attorney and a health care proxy.

Sooner is better. As soon as you can is best.

A Crack in an Antarctic Ice Shelf Is 8 Miles From Creating an Iceberg the Size of Delaware
A rapidly advancing crack in Antarctica’s fourth-largest ice shelf has scientists concerned about a full break."Ice shelves, which form through runoff from glaciers, float in water and provide structural support to the glaciers that rest on land. When an ice shelf collapses, the glaciers behind it can accelerate toward the ocean. Higher temperatures in the region are hastening the ice shelf’s retreat."
It looks dramatic.
The graphics are powerful.
The formation of this tabular berg is a relatively minor event.
The story that needs to be told is the collapse of the Antartic continental glaciation.
