Well, it's Friday, and there's news to throw away. Not only are all of Asheboro's "right people" sobbing in their watered-down beer (FNB traded as low as 45 CENTS/share today), but (in the wake of the Sleazely administration's "reform") the Mental Health Association of North Carolina has gone belly-up (regular readers will remember that I've blogged about the Mental Health Association before).
Meanwhile, after my lovely experience as a grunt-doc in Hillary's village, and the ensuing almost twelve-year-old professional nightmare (although I am humbled & honored to still be standing - and Googlable - as Greensboro's best example of why no one should believe John Robinson or Ed Cone - or blog) . . . an ordeal that neither Slick Willie nor Lady Macbeth nor any of their do-gooding minions/sycophants cared anything about stopping or fixing (of course there was that uber-distracting problem with the First-Hound-Dog's zipper), we-the-People get to watch Bill's daughter play American princess on the Hudson this weekend.
Rumor has it that the gluten-free cake alone will cost over $11,000.
Of course, in the wake of Obamacare (the current First Lady and her First-daughter are currently enjoying their umpteenth vacation in Spain - reserving 30 rooms in a five-star hotel), $11,000 won't buy very many jacked-up insurance policies for the children thrown off their parents' policies, so I suppose we lowly plebes shouldn't quibble.
It's really our fault that we didn't understand, you know. It wasn't all for THE children. It was all for THEIR children. A mere typo.
It's like I said at Joe's earlier this week. Sometimes I think that way back in 1998, I fell down and hit my head and have been in a coma . . . dreaming this CRAP up.
I'm sorry people. I know I'm supposed to be all bunnies and sunflowers for Chelsea. Her life, while privileged, has most certainly not been easy sandwiched between the only two ego-monsters on the planet who could put John & Lizzie Edwards to shame. But I just cannot dredge up the fuzzies or the yellow out of the muck & mire I fell into . . . once upon a time . . . a long ago and not-so-far-away . . . when I did my part for my village - at the urging of her Mom and Dad.
Evening Update: While I'm at it, let me just say that I'm swearing off the Andy & Opie re-runs for good. But on the bright side, the best comment I've seen in a long while was left on WXII's story:
So. "Good things are coming", and happy days are here again. I would say more, but I think I just saw a pig fly by my window and I have to go check it out.
I think I'll go hunt some lipstick in case they catch the pig;)
