Foolishness

Yeah, it's pretty much official . . . . I'm writing to myself!  Well, I do have a couple of folks stop by from time to time, but you know, that's okay I suppose.  After all, I can screw up my spelling, grammar, punctuation and even tell stories without concern of being corrected, questioned or even doubted.  Wow! I just became "my hero", able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive and over time perhaps I can convince myself that is the "real me"!  Wait, that tall building thing needs to change.  Jumping high is pretty cool, but I wanna be able to fly!  And why settle for just being fast as a bullet?  No, no, no, I want bullets and rockets and grenades and bombs and any other body piercing matter to bounce off of me, but no capes, no tights!  This may take some adjusting.  Anyone watch the TV series, "The Greatest American Hero"?  William Katt played the title role and he had some problems with his new found powers.  Oh well, it's hot, really hot outside so why not stay inside, use my imagination and be silly?  There's just not enough "silly" in the world today!  Oh wait, there is plenty of silly, ridiculous, outrageous and disgusting, but not from a comedic stance.  We have elected officials acting like spoiled babies and paying no attention to the fact they are suppose to be representing the voters who gave them their job.  And this is certainly not a partisan issue, both sides of politics are heavily involved.

Sorry for my political outburst!  It disturbs me when greed is so prevalent and we, the citizens are taken for fools.  Our country could not have survived all of these years if our decision makers had always been so self-serving!  Oh, it upsets me and I could write volumes, but politics and religion are subjects I was taught to never discuss.  Some might agree with me, others would definitely not agree with me and nothing would be accomplished.  If one is going to tear something down and rebuild it, be certain it is better than before.  I don't even know what that means! 

I'm thinkin' I'll publish this post, get it out of the way and start anew.  However, if ANYONE would like to comment, even to question my sanity or why I would submit a post such as this, please feel free to jump in.

Have a safe week and stay cool!

'Til next time - I'm outta here,
