Wascally Wabbits......

Okay! I don’t really know what happened. I tho’t I’d lost that post (Wonks & Wabbits) entirely. It disappeared into the ether and was gone and I couldn’t find it. I never tho’t to look at the darn blog itself. Makes me wonder what happens to all the really, really dumb things I write that I purposely delete. Are all those idiot tho’ts floating around in space just waiting to post themselves somewhere?
Prob’ly no more than I deserve for thinking all those uncharitable tho’ts about my betters. Nah!!!!...... Can’t be!
So this’s my ‘good’ week........I’ve made it to the club twice......a little swim, a little sun on my bald pate, a little steam to clear my sinus....I’ll go again later this morning and to see the big C doc this afternoon. My eyebrows are disappearing even as I type. The character on ‘Desperate Housewives’ who was undergoing Chemo lost her hair but not her ‘brows.....prob’ly not too many people noticed that ‘cept the for real Chemo fellow travellers.....ah well, Cancer is getting a lot of media attention at the moment and that’s a good thing....more attention means more money for research and more research equals (hopefully) more cures.......and I’m for that.
Now on to more mundane things. Sarkozy (?) I’m sure that’s misspelled, is visiting the new world. That’s what old-world Europe used to call us. Anyway, he seems to be here to kiss and make up. I think that’s a good thing. Long, long ago I tho’t that was the best part of a relationship. The more quarrels you had.....etcetera, etcetera..........anyway, I think that as ‘Shrub’ nears the end of his lease agreement with the White House that he knows he needs to ‘kiss and make up’ with all those he snubbed at the beginning of the dance......Wascals can’t help themselves, y’know. Bred in the bone and all, as Granny used to say. A tiger can’t change his stripes and all that. Altho’ I doubt that any tiger ever wanted to change his stripes and I futher doubt that any politician ever wanted to actually be honest. I think that WW’s view honesty as an inherent disadvantage. I think that what most of view as a moral lapse, WW’s see as a God-given talent.
Lamont Cranston, as the Shadow, had the ability to ‘cloud men’s minds’.....so too, the WW’s are seemingly born with the ability to obfuscate and deceive.
Humpty Dumpty said and I quote, “When I use a word, it means just what I choose it to mean - neither more nor less. and Bill Clinton said, “It all depends on what you mean by the word ‘is’.....”
