I'm Having One Of Those Days

I am 54 years old and I have so many unanswered questions! 

I still haven't found out who let the Dogs Out...where's the beef...how to get to Sesame Street... why Dora doesn't just use Google Maps... Why do all flavors of fruit loops taste exactly the same, or how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop......why eggs are packaged in a flimsy paper carton, but batteries are secured in plastic that's tough as nails, yet light bulbs too are in a flimsy carton... 

Ever buy scissors? You need scissors to cut into the packaging of scissors... I still don't understand why there is Braille on drive up ATM's or why "abbreviated" is such a long word; or why is there a D in 'fridge' but not in refrigerator... why lemon juice is made with artificial flavor yet dish-washing liquid is made with real lemons... why they sterilize the needle for lethal injections... and, why do you have to "put your two cents in" but it's only a "penny for your thoughts" where's that extra penny going... why do The Alphabet Song and Twinkle Twinkle Little Star have the same tune... why did you just try to sing those two previous songs... and just what is Victoria's secret? ....and what would you do for a Klondike bar and you know as soon as you bite into it it falls apart...and Why do we drive on Parkways and park on Driveways?

Joe, number one your wife will tell you what you need to know. Number two, be thankful for the Faith and Trust in God that you are Blessed with. Everything else is just humor...

I appreciate the humor (still chuckling) at the tag lines of some very creative people. In real life (I agree with 9:10) our faith is what keeps us going. We are on the cusp of a new era which is going to be a struggle. My hope and prayer will be that the hard core progressive left "sees the light" and grows to understand conservatism, the pluses of productivity, and the benefits of unity among ethnic groups. We need to secure our borders and strengthen our military to be global peacekeepers; we need to be productive and regain industrial might to stabilize the global economy; we need to protect our most precious asset - the constitution - on which our nation was founded and all of the rights associated; we need to lead with concrete and meaningful ideas toward climate and natural resources; and we need to show the world we can all get along by reaching out to our diversity in America.
