They Don’t Care

Today, at least in this area, people don’t die, they pass. At first, I didn’t like that phrase. I thought: why doesn’t one just say, they died, because that’s what they did. But after mulling it over, I changed my mind. After all, isn’t death a time when one passes from this life into the next? Still, no matter what we call the last trip…I’m sure it makes no difference to the dearly departed.

Beauty

Beauty is what you’re used to.

It’s Everywhere

Incompetence stalks the land!

The Gift of a Loan

Whenever I lend money to my family or friends, in my mind’s eye, I see it as a gift. Then if I get paid back, I’m pleasantly surprised. But if I don’t since I saw it as a gift, I never become embittered or angry, for to lose their friendship over a few dollars seems foolish to me.

An Eye Opener

We close our eyes when we sneeze.

A Hard Left

Why is it that many people who demand their constitutional right to free speech are outraged when others exercise theirs and express the opposite view? Perhaps these hypocrites should be given, in addition to their rights, a hard left.

Almost Impossible

It is almost impossible to be good at something you don’t like to do.

The Nuts

          In the last presidential election, ACORN, a liberal community activist group, registered 1.3 million new voters, of which almost a third were rejected, in too many cases because they were fraudulent. Obviously, this was very embarrassing to the Obama campaign. In addition, ACORN’s workers were caught on tape, giving advice on how to get a government loan to run a house of ill repute, using underage prostitutes, from El Salvador.

          Now ACORN is trying to blame Fox News, the right wing, and anyone else that doesn’t agree with or support them for their wrong doings. Quite frankly, until I first heard about ACORN, a year or so ago, I always assumed that acorns were nuts. However, it’s nice to know that I’m still right…on both accounts!
