Rik and His Goldfish

What a story…

this is the kind of whopper you tell when you REALLY need to explain why you couldn’t do something you SWORE on your Mother’s ( who is NOT DEAD ) grave that you would do.

Enjoy

An I.B. Political Moment

I have friends

who volunteer in Political Places.

They’ve been at this for years.

Today they both called me from opposite sides of the country and said the same thing.

” This election thing isn’t going well. People are angry. They saying they’re not going to vote. I’ve been doing this for over  X number of years and I’ve never heard things like this before. “

” What. ” I asked ” Nobody has ever  threatened to boycott  an election? “

” No…the anger… “

See, all of this carrying on is being spun as ” passion ” and ” conviction ” for the candidates and I tossed that word out there but both these people disagreed on that word.

Anger.

That’s the word they used

because that is what they’re hearing.

It’s 5:07

and

I am

Officially Worried.
