Politics Made Simple

author unknown

I was talking to a friend 's little girl, and she said she wanted to be President some day.

Both of her parents, liberal Democrats, were standing there, so I asked her, 'If you were to be the President, what is the first thing you would do?'

She replied, 'I'd give food and houses to all the homeless people.'

'Wow - what a worthy goal.' I told her, 'You don't have to wait until you're President to do that. You can come over to my house and mow, pull weeds, and sweep my sidewalks and driveway, and I'll pay you $50.

Then I'll take you over to the grocery store where the homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him the $50 to use toward food or a new house.'

She thought that over for a few seconds 'cause she's only 6. And while her Mom glared at me, she looked me straight in the eye and asked,

'Why doesn't the homeless guy come over and do the work, and you can just pay him the $50?'

And I said, 'Welcome to the Republican Party.'
Her folks still aren't talking to me but even little children understand.

Baseball Craziness

Sometimes baseball fans can get a little crazy. Today the Chicago Cubs played the Milwaukee Brewers in Milwaukee. A friend of mine from college and myself were driving back to campus from Brookfield, WI, and the next thing know, we hear some crazy driver honking at us. We look over and the occupants of their car are wildly waving Brewers hats and and waving at us. Now, my friend's car has the spare tire on back of the car, and she has a Cubs covering for it, not to mention several Cubs window clings. I suppose that the people in the other car thought that we were going from the game, like they were...
Oh well. It made for some great laughs.

Oh yeah, and the Cubs beat the Brewers 7-3 anyway, so I don't know what their big deal was. Fun times!

The Output of My Random Mind

There are times that I feel as if my mind will never produce anything productive or worth saying (This is one of those times). There are many circumstances where I feel as if my contributing to a conversation won't be anything but a sudden roadblock in the fluidity of a discussion. I am more of the type that stands (or sits) back, listens, and absorbs what is being said. I gain much valuable - and interesting - information this way.

Once in a while I feel an odd iota of inspiration and I add a bit of flavor to the conversation...usually way off topic. My mind runs in many different directions, and I'm lucky if I can stay on topic for an entire paragraph - or conversation for that matter. Oftentimes, I find that I have a very interesting story to tell, but by the time everybody else has stopped talking long enough to listen, I have forgotten what exactly I was going to say...actually that happens more often than not. Just ask any of my friends from high school. I'd start off by saying "Guess what?" and when I went on to tell the rest, I'd end up with "I forget" (Which one person in particular found quite hilarious).

Once again, I am finding that whenever I have something I want to say, when it's all said there's not really a point, so I guess I'll just end here. :)
