The soul has greater need of the ideal than the real for it is by the real that we exist, it is by the ideal that we live

Letters

Dear Mr. President:

For future reference:

Mentioning Charlie Crist and hoses in the same sentence...not a good idea.

Thanks
Me


"...Everyone needs to grab a hose and that's what Charlie Crist is doing here today."
Barack Obama

At least he doesn't tell lies.

The rats! The rats!

Interesting how they always start to jump off the sinking ship. Those wily rats.

Parties galore this week at work for those who are moving on to other ventures, or none at all. Some are changing jobs some are retiring. I hope I'm none of those.

I got another memo yesterday which brought home the message that though things are still in limbo no one will accurately know their status until July 1, the beginning of the fiscal year. That's when they'll let us know if they have chosen to afford us or not. I feel so secure right now. (ahem)

I wish my friends in Oklahoma would respond to my email. I think the weather yesterday was away from where they live, but living in that hellhole (to borrow a phrase) where tornadoes spring up like weeds anything is possible.

The stimulus package is morphing again. Now it's the house vs the senate. let's hope something resembling common sense gets back in there. I laugh at a lot of the conservatives comments on the internet about how this stimulus package is just spending and won't do a thing. And not one of them uttered a word when Bush spent hundreds of billions of dollars bankrupting us on a war for oil and not terrorism. Not one word. And they suddenly have no memory of any of it. All they can see is a black guy spending money they think is all for other black guys. Let's ask the black guys in New Orleans how much they get.

As for me,I'd be happy to sit here for a while and ride this thing out. I can perfect some skills, learn a few new ones I hope, and put a little in the bank. Not to mention making foundations for the plans I have.

Here's hoping I get to do exactly that.

And here's a little pick me up for Wednesday...God! is it really only Wednesday?




Jay Mohr is just one of those guys you want to like. I don't know if he's likeable, but I want him to be. I like his wife too, but she should stop with the restalin in the lips, she was totally cute to begin with. Not as cute as her husband, but cute.
