Since Spring is almost here (it’s been tempting us a day at a time), let’s try something lighter (and shorter) this time.

Like…..aren’t you almost filled up to here with the political wars? Barack has been to town (Indy) and Hillary is not far behind. Last week, the Indianapolis Star’s cartoonist, Gary Varvel, posed one of his “Caption This” games, showing a drawing of Hillary answering the phone at 3:00 A.M. (that’s the latest gotcha question: “Who would you want to answer the phone at 3 o’clock in the morning?”, (presumably about some terrorist plot). Readers were supposed to fill in Hillary’s answer. Here’s mine. She says: “No, Bill, I don’t believe you are being held by a female Obama terrorist. Y’all git home!”

Have you buried all your New Year’s Resolutions by now? I finally gave myself permission to delve into that nice hunk of blue cheese that arrived for Christmas. You know the way many products have a warning notice on how soon to eat things? Well, this hunk had a printed notice: “Use by April, 3008.” Do you realize how long a time that is? A thousand years from now. Now that’s a real guarantee!

Something I just realized: Younger people don’t say “You’re welcome” anymore. They say, “No problem.” Pretty close to the same thought, but it’s the modern way. Try it sometime on a young person, like a young waitress (pardon me, a “server”) who has done a special favor for you.

Have those Hollywood and TV script writers ended their strike yet? I haven’t heard. If not, how much would it cost to pay them to stay on strike for another year?

Do you remember that news story a few weeks ago about the vandals who destroyed somebody’s Christmas decorations? And the only way the owner could identify them was their car had a license with “In God We Trust”? It seems that designation would no longer narrow down the suspects. There are so many of them now.

Further thought: I wonder what would happen if everybody with a license saying “In God We Trust” showed up for church this Sunday.
