Skybluepink in the morning.......

It’s a luv’ly day for saying, “It’s a luv’ly day.”
This time change thing.......this daylight savings time..... this idiotic jumping back & forth on the clock......why do we do it? It might have made sense (maybe) at some time in the past but it strikes me as just plain dumb t’day......makes a body wonder just how many dumb things we do just becuz they've always been done.......I recall way back when I wuz just a lowly peon in the USAF, I was required to type a number of reports in duplicate & triplicate & occasionally more, copies going to God knows how many people who were then required to note & file & keep for a specified period of time before disposing.......one report in p’ticklar, I had to make a dozen or more copies....Now, this was a time before copiers were standard equipment in most places, so I had to use carbon paper & hit the keys of the typewriter really hard so that all the copies were legible.......didn’t work real well.....& as I was a somewhat less than competent typist, I did a lot of erasing....(it was also the age before white-out)....It was a struggle....
a losing struggle.....& one day I snapped & quit making that p’ticklar report.....I had no idea what I was gonna say when I got called on the carpet for not doing the report....didn’t matter to me at the moment...I just quit doing it......AND NOTHING HAPPENED!.......nobody noticed...the world didn’t end......& I didn’t have to stand there wondering which side of my face was gonna get slapped by the nameless bureaucracy.....I wondered then what would happen if everyone just stopped making reports that no one ever read.....I bet you’re wondering if there’s a point to all this.......Well, Obama kind'a stumbled & he's been taking heat so his supporters have been trying to hit back.....they don't have much to hit with except Bill.so they've been wondering who contributed how much to Bill Clintons library & what favors he might owe in response & I wuz wondering what average citizen actually gives a damn about Presidential libraries anyway.......
So.....in the Obama/Clinton thing.....who’s rubber & who’s glue?????............Justin Other Smith

I just read your blog...lovely! You are very eloquent!
I also read your profile and with your permission I will add your name to my prayer list. I believe it works. Both my husband and I are survivors.
I'm not on some religious quest I just happened on your site and was lead to ask...
