THE POLITICS OF TODAY ARE DRIVING ME CRAZY. I DON'T THINK I HAVE EVER BEEN AS INVESTED IN THESE THINGS BEFORE IN MY LIFE. MAYBE I JUST HAVE MORE TIME TO TUNE IN NOW. THE NEWS PAPERS AND THE TV HAVE NO GOOD NEWS ANYMORE. THEY KEEP TOSSING OUT THE WORD "BILLION"......LIKE IT IS NO BIG DEAL. IT IS A DIFFICULT NUMBER TO COMPREHEND. ONE ADVERTISING AGENCY I SAW DID A GOOD JOB OF PUTTING THAT FIGURE INTO SOME PERSPECTIVE.
A. A BILLION SECONDS AGO IT WAS 1959.
B. A BILLION MINUTES AGO JESUS WAS ALIVE.
C. A BILLION HOURS AGO OUR ANCESTORS WERE LIVING IN THE STONE AGE.
D. A BILLION DAYS AGO NO ONE WALKED ON THE EARTH ON TWO FEET.
E. A BILLION DOLLARS AGO WAS ONLY 8 HOURS AND 20 MINUTES, AT THE RATE OUR GOVERNMENT IS SPENDING. (THIS BEING WRITTEN IN SEPT OF 2012). WHAT WILL CHANGE? WHAT IS AHEAD FOR AMERICA? AND NO ONE IS SUPPOSE TO BE STRESSED? HELLO?
TODAY WE ARE BREATHLESSLY AWAITING THE LETTER THAT TELLS RICHIE B. WHERE HE WILL BE GOING ON A MISSION. I AM ALSO WAITING FOR DARREN TO ARRIVE WITH LILLIE AND MACY WHO ARE SPENDING THE WEEKEND WITH ME WHILE THEY GO TO DISNEY LAND..........
