Once't upon a time…
"Apparently there is nothing that cannot happen today." Mark Twain
We do live in innarestin' times, don't we? I mean, we got ourselves a whole bunch of global warming…(if you don't believe that, what we got is some really hot weather)…I figure when Al Gore wudn't really able to take credit for inventing the internet is when he came up with the global warming thing…'n you got to admit, it worked for him….reports are that he's made over a hundred million dollars out of it to date…he's done better with global warming than his daddy did with tobacco 'n being a big-shot politico from Tennessee, Gore Sr. made a lot of money off the tobacco lobby….
Along with the weather, we got ourselves the most innarestin' political season in my lifetime…probably ain't seen one this obstreperous since 1860 'n according to the history books, that one didn't really end well….my good neighbor sez he's so disgusted with all of 'em that he don't know if he'll bother to vote at all…I reminded him that he needed to vote 'No' on all the tax increases that Gov. Moonbeam wants to lay on us…
'Course, Gov. Moonbeam is just being a Democrat (never met a tax they didn't like)…not sure why anyone would vote to raise their own taxes but if Moonbeam don't get to raise 'em, he'll just pull an Obama 'n levy fees, in which case, he'll be able to claim that he didn't raise taxes...
Guv'mint, y'just gotta love it…t'ain't like they ever do a better job with other peoples money…I don't expect any of us pay a lot of attention to a budget if we were spending other peoples money...
'Course, they don't want to tax us 'poor' people, they just want the rich people to pay their 'fair' share…'n it never seems to seep into their collective consciousness that rich people got enough money to hire really smart lawyers so that they never never have to pay their fair share…
'N the almost rich…well, they tend to pack up 'n move to a state that don't tax 'em so much…(think Arizona, Texas, Florida…actually, most of the sunbelt states... 'Course, they might as well move there since they already moved most of their business' there anyways…..
Obama says Gore didn't invent the internet…he claims the government (whoever that is or was) invented it…
I gotta say this about the internet…it is just plum' chockfull of news…all around the world…'course, you don't always know whether it's true or not 'n you can't verify it by what you see on television…or, for that matter, what you read in the newspapers…
Will Rogers, who claimed that he only knew what he read in the newspapers 'ud be in deep doo-doo today…
We got tsunamis 'n civil wars 'n individual acts of terrorism all around the world 'til it seems for sure that the inmates have taken over this asylum, this blue planet spinning in space….
Oceans are rising 'n mountains are falling 'n this old earth is spinning on it's axis 'n seems like whatever happens today is gonna be topped by something unimaginable that's gonna come down the pike tomorrow….
You just never know when it comes to buying green bananas so you might want to err on the side of caution....
"So when it's raining, have no regrets, it isn't raining rain, y'know, it's raining violets…"
