Politics - yuk!

There's a new sheriff in town. Little Town has been buzzing since the resignation of the last sheriff. Nothing like politics to stir up a community.

So I'm jamming to "Photograph" by Def Leppard and working on a title run for an unplatted subdivision in a neighboring county. I'd like to be an ostrich and just stick my head in the ground when it comes to politics. But I reckon that is part of the reason why our nation is as screwed up as it currently is. Too many people with their heads in the sand....or maybe up their butts.

I should've been born 150 years ago when the policy was if they are guilty, hang 'em. And what happened to the barter system? You know, I'll trade you two blankets, a jug of moonshine and a tin of sugar for a dozen eggs and a goat. Wishful thinking - I can wish in one hand and $H%* in the other and see which hand fills up quicker.

It's time to head to the river, breathe some fresh air and be thankful for what I have and not worry about what I don't have. This plan always works better when accompanied by some cold beer and a good book. And I will NOT let the thought of politics ruin the moment for me.
