Mocha-momma and I met with our bible study group tonight, and of course the talk turned around at one point to the political ads. It's getting to the point of insanity.
Hi, I'm kingdavid and I approved this ad: my opponent is a total scumbag who will destroy the lives of you and your family and they have their heads rammed up where the sun don't shine. So vote for me.
I actually came up with this idea a few weeks ago while commenting on one of Little Cicero's posts. I'm mad as hell, and I'm not gonna take it anymore. I'm a news and blog junkie; but man I'm finding it harder and harder to stomach all the crap that's going on in the world. You do notice that most of my posts lean to the zanier side of life. There are enough bloggers out there who report on all of the serious stuff; but sometimes you just need a break.
Life isn't going to cease to exist whether the democratics, republicans, or an independant wins the 5th congressional district seat in MN, or Georgia, or Rhode Island. We sucked it up and survived through Clinton and Gore; we'll do it again if we have to. In the meantime, we all just need to catch our breath, make some attitude adjustments, look at some of the good going on in your individual lives, and take the advice of good old Sgt. Hulka in Stripes: Lighten Up Francis.
Therefore, as the only king that I know of in the MOB, I'm declaring November to be Nonsense-itivity Month. Yes, battle the leftists and their ideology with all your might; but also take time to see all the humor and nonsense that reality holds on a daily basis. Watch "Willie Wonka" this month; he knew that wise men needed a little nonsense in their lives now and then.
A careless song, with a little nonsense in it now and then, does not mis-become a monarch. - Horace (Horatio) Walpole, 4th Earl of Orford, Letter to Sir Horace Mann
If a little nonsense is good enough for the 4th Earl of Orford, it should be good enough for anybody.
