First of all, may I just say what a wonderful opportunity it is for me to be included in the inverted chasm. For the past two minutes, this has been a lifetime goal of mine that I am very happy to say was achieved.
I want to pay tribute to something that has shaped my life considerably. Something that has always been a constant. Ever since the time I was 10 years old this has been right there for me. Whenever other constants in my life have faltered, this one has been right there by my side. I have always been able to count on my lovable, story-telling pal, Wishbone.
Sadly, a tragedy has occurred. Sunday morning, I went to the TV at 11 am, just like always to escape the problems of the day and drown my sorrows in a nice episode of wishbone. I was anxious in anticipation for what episode would come today. Well, Wishbone was gone. He wasn’t there today. He had been replaced by some jerk who was talking about the economy and how we went wrong. This I found to be extremely ironic. Some jerk who destroyed everything that was good and consistent is wondering where we went wrong?
But, as usually is the case, this story has a happy ending. Thankfully, Wishbone is still shown Tuesday-Friday at 1:30. There is still hope for humanity! Luckily, we can all still “shake a leg”, “wag another tale” and “sniff out an adventure”.
Speaking of adventure, have any of you seen the movie “Journey to the Center of the Earth” with Brendan Fraser. I have to admit, I am a fan of movies where there is no killing people, so I liked this one. Nevertheless, if you took any science classes beyond the sixth grade, this movie will be absolute LUDACRIS. I thought it was awesome that people could walk on thin ground and not have it break, but when a diamond fell on it, it shattered. Also, there is a scene where the young boy in the story must cross a magnetic field on a bridge of rocks that are suspended in midair. Somehow, this kid is able to generate enough force to push certain (not all) rocks forward to get where he wants to go. Despite that it is a pretty good show.
Have you ever just had the urge to scream? I think most of us have. Sometimes, no matter what you do, things go wrong. I have found the ideal antidote for this problem. When this happens to me, I just go up to some unsuspecting person and say “STRESS STRESS PANIC PANIC” in an extremely desperate voice. They will look at you like you have lost it (and who are you kidding, you have) and its pretty funny. Guaranteed to brighten your day.
I just love catchy songs. At the moment, I am listening to Nena and her 80’s hit 99 red balloons in German. Yeah, I mean, its about total nuclear destruction, but still, this is one of those you just cant help but crank up loud in your car. Same goes for Hanson and mmmbop.
Well, I better wrap this up. I am sure that no one is reading at this point. If I could leave you with one valid point, it would be to recognize how wonderful the people around you are. Tell them you love them more often, even if you want to throw them out of a window sometimes.
