You've Got to Hide Your Head Away

How can I/we/you/they take anything seriously anymore? I mean, really! When such ridiculous things continue to occur in This Crazy Country Of America like THIS, and then THIS and, of course THIS ONE, my first impression used to be outrage and/or that nifty feeling of my hair "standing up on the back of the neck" in a blasting freak-out. But not at the moment.

I'm exhausted with the pettiness of politics; the Huge Egos of celebrities; the incessant roar of "Socialism" whenever a Democrat stands-up for Social Security, assisting the elderly, War Veterans, and The Poors. In addition, although I believe Prez Obama deliberately placed those so-called "Entitlements" on the Budget Chopping Block (despite the overwhelming support to safeguard those programs by those of us who voted for him) to show that he is willing to "cross the aisle" to "get things done" knowing the GOP won't agree to the other half of the story (such as TAXING THE RICH), I'm left with a dizzying desire to flee to the nearest beach with non-polluted waters to feel the sand beneath my feet and say Eff This, I Want The Oblivion Of My Past to waft over me once more.

Yep. Ignorance CAN be bliss. At least for a day or two.

And, my friends and foes, that is precisely what I intend to do right now. Enjoy a few days of providing a respite from High Blood Pressure Due To Anger & Frustration. With North Korea's madness looming over South Korea from a kid who has powerfully Expensive Lethal Toys, I think most of us may need a few days off to gain strength to face the unfortunate truth that, if not today or tomorrow, or next week, next month, the chances of Yet Another War In The World is nigh.

Therefore, enjoy a cup of tea or a Triple Latte, chased with the drug/alcohol of your choice (if you are so inclined) to Imagine A World Without Strife.

Right. I know. Dream on, Shauna. Actually, I like my dreams. No one ever gets hurt.

Pollyanna is signing-off now.

See you tomorrow!
