Fractured fairy tales from a 50-something
I get the biggest kick out of their description: A non-partisan, non-profit grassroots taxpayer advocacy organization for Minnesota. “Non-partisan”? “Non-profit”? That’s like saying the Jewish Defence League is non-denominational. Or the Pope’s not a Catholic.
The Diva Drew and I were watching TV tonight and saw an oxymoron in a commercial – a cool-looking Buick. That’s like saying Dick Cheney has a soul. Or Bush has a brain. We’re talking Land of OZ here. On top of which, I hate SUVs. I’m a gearhead and a sporty car guy. BMWs, Ferraris, Lambos, Astons, Maseratis, Koenigsegg, Pagani. Even Allards, Deuse’s and Morgans, for god’s sakes. But Buick?
You know, it takes brass balls to put up with Minnesota winters. It’s like the relationship from hell. Every time you walk out the door you get slapped.
I found a note on my desk this morning. It said, “Next blog post – Bottom of the Barrel Baby Boomer”. Cool. Problem is, I have no idea what the brilliant thought was behind this post idea.
The best explanation I can think of is to listen to the Bob Wayne's Weblog theme song. Yes, that's right, I have a theme song (conveniently stolen from "What Do You Want From Life" by The Tubes). Enjoy and don't forget to tell me what you really think!Official Bob Wayne's Blog Theme Song
