Saturday Evening Post--with Apologies to Norman Rockwell.

LFAQ of THE DAY:

If you assassinate a mock candidate, will people get that it was a joke?

REAL HEADLINE MASQUERADING AS ONION-ESQUE (SHALLOT-LIKE) HEADLINE:

Verizon charging users for “excessive use of their unlimited service.”

RATING STATUS OF THE DAY:

My highest praise: one thumb up.

SOCIO-POLITICAL OBSERVATION OF THE DAY:

Complacency and passivity are the great American luxuries.

CARTOON WITHOUT ILLUSTRATION OF THE DAY:

DELIGHTFULLY MEANINGLESS SENTENCE OF THE DAY:

He was always just one degree of separation from being off topic.

TRAGI-COMIC MOMENT OF THE DAY:

Getting what I thought was a look from an attractive woman and then realizing she was blind.

MUSICAL REFLECTION OF THE DAY:

People sing all the good stuff out of themselves. What remains afterwards is just rubbish.

(This was conjectured in a rather bleak and uncharacteristically cynical mood and does not necessarily reflect my true feelings on the subject. But I sort of liked the way it sounded. )

POST REFLECTION CORRECTIVE OF THE DAY:

As a corrective to the uncharacteristic negativity expressed above, I have decided to travel north today to witness the glory of autumn; the cynicism-dissolving, soul-stirring spectacle of nature resplendent in her dying.

CONFESSION OF THE DAY:

I just can't imagine my blog without me.

SUGGESTED TITLE OF THE DAY:

Same Street, Different City.

RANDOM SINGLE SENTENCE PORTRAIT OF THE DAY:
