Thoughts on the Day

  • I woke from a bad dream this morning.  I had been elected to Congress and it was my first day.
    • I couldn’t convince them that I was up to date on my shots, and I got another yellow fever inoculation.
    • I spent hours arguing with a white-haired woman that it was wrong to let the U.N. designate who could and who couldn’t come to the U.S. as a refugee.  She ended the conversation by saying “I guess we can’t be friends now”.
    • The radio kept playing “Mama Was A Hitman” by Tim Wilson.  It seemed appropriate.
  • $35 for a pair of sneakers for a six-year-old boy is not a “sale”.  It’s gentle robbery.
  • As I look around my home after a week of taking care of Irish Woman and keeping the wheels on, I have a sudden urge to hire a housecleaner.
  • While I was making coffee this morning, it sounded like an air assault brigade was attacking the golf course.  Between news choppers, blimps, police helicopters, and small planes pulling banners, my airspace is officially full.
    • Some of these pilots need to check their altimeters.  I swear one guy looked like he was going to land in the field behind the house.
