JAN10

Starting with the morning......Obama was on with Geroge Stephanopolis...to me the highlight of the speech, was not economic insights, not about ending the war, but that the FIRST DOG, will come from a SHELTER and not a breeder. Getting dogs from shelters and not breeders has been espoused by the PREsident Elect....and jus tmight be brought to light to the entire country. HE IS NOT BUYING a dog, but rescuing one.
What a wonderful message... Hopefully this will put a stop to some of the millions of dogs ending up in the gas chamber.
Yesterday, with dire warnings of ice and snow, we expected no customers at all, and no income for the day.... How happy weeere we to be crowded, with customers and we had a relatively good day of buying and selling....Not that this would interest any of my readers, but possibly, this is a reflection of the total economy changing for the better....the highlight, which gave me a chuckle, was a man, who came in early, mumbled inhoherently, ran upstairs,..on his way down, I asked him if he needed help. He mumbled something ...and ran out...got into his car, and smashed into my new truck...which proceeded to destroy his car... he speed away, dented and more confushed. Nothing happened to my truck at all. This was the third time that he visited us in one week.....and wonder why he graced our store...only to ruin his car?
Here is a poem that I wrote late last night.....it still has to be worked on, but want to post it before I forget....


embryo to ashes
and everything inbetween
can be seen
as part of the master plan
not only Dna
maps out the entire trip
conception to cremation
but powers
we cannot fathom
instructions from phantoms
we make into gods
cloud our senses
building invisible fences
to separate people
to divide great nations
put words into the mouth of spirits
who claim to rule the world
with a menu of rights and wrongs
fog our collective brain
from really seeking the truth

we stake our claim to the world
with mystical interpretations
and illogical representations
ridiculous misconceptions
Science is placed on the back burner
while legend burns on the stove of insanity
and mans vanity
and mans ignorance
and mans superstition
and mans pride
can snuff out a millions souls
before admitting
there can be another way
To view the world
and appease the gods and spirits

Destiny prearranged
by minds deranged
by belief systems based on fantasy
corrupts and perverts reality
making the world not much different
than the world presented
in a three dimensional cartoon
comedy horror show
ending when the PIG says
"that's all folks"
and is shot to death
