Election 2012 – Call Me Trivial – Certain Things Swirl in the Brain (Flash 55)
Election 2012 – Call Me Trivial – Certain Things Swirl in the Brain
Dog on a fast car roof (hosed
through cage
at rest stop) does not speak
to me
of empathy,
nor does ganging tackle (with scissors)
of slightly-foppish blonde boy.
Guiding near-blind teacher into glass
door?
Ha ha. Ha
ha.
You think
I’m not
being fair?
But it’s all
in good fun.
Ha.
Sure.
********************************
Above my offering to the G-man – 55 words without title . ( And, yes, I know, I’m not being fair. And I’m sorry to offend- although these stories –all told of one specific candidate – do tend to stick in my brain. But, sure, boys will be boys. And, the dog – well – his name was Seamus – and hey, it can be darn hard to control a dog in a car on a long trip driving on fast highways, and I bet there are some countries people would like to tie on roofs.)
Have a great weekend.

That is what’s cool about freeness of speech and opinion. I enjoyed your ride of a 55.

Ha! You are undoubtedly right, Brian!
I hate to be negative but can’t expect everyone to be a news junkie. This was from a Washington Post article that was widely reported last spring. http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/mitt-romneys-prep-school-classmates-recall-pranks-but-also-troubling-incidents/2012/05/10/gIQA3WOKFU_story.html

Well done, k. I try to be impartial about personalities and stick to issues, which heaven knows is enough, but its very hard with people like this.

Yep. Me neither. Like I commented on another 55, we have to laugh, because otherwise, it is all too depressing.

… yes, all little boys are angels… Really, they really, really had to search for “something”. Binders of women are a good thing! 🙂 I think he seems like a great guy! (sorry everyone 🙂
