The Strangest Thing

The strangest thing happened this morning. I woke up, America had elected a black President and everything was OK. I saw people going to work, people walking down the street in a normal walking fashion. There was no fighting, no murderous rampages, no apocalypse. Weird.

Look people, it is like this. In football, sometimes when things aren't working and the offense is not clicking, you need to make a change. You need to restructure so you can succeed. Sometimes you just need to change your quarterback. It's not always permanent, but it is sometimes necessary.

We'll be OK. We'll definitely be better off. Obama is no savior, but he is a good man that will get some things accomplished. Bear in mine though, he is just a politician like the rest of them. Some of the stuff he does will piss us off and some will be great. I don't see how there is anyone who can say we will not be better off than we have been for the last 8 years. Bush screwed us all and more importantly he screwed up our country. He will go down in history, I think, as the worst President we have every had. Way to go Bushy...this is your legacy.

The Pope is Gone! The Pope is Gone!

I am not Catholic, nor am I a big Pope fan. I personally don't get all the hub-bub. Is he magical? Can he turn water into wine? Any healing powers there at all? I suppose he could teach a man to fish, but so could I.

No, I did not make any attempts to go see the Pope or his fancy, "you gotta ride on the small bus," car. I was at home with the rest of my non-Catholic clan. To make him feel better though, if George Bush were in town, I would have attempted to actually get further away.
