This latest lib movement is really dumb
Soon of statues we’ll have none
If we forget the past
The nation can’t last
History is a cultural desideratum

True Story:

My Nephew’s Wedding:

My nephew’s wedding was in Colorado, outside on a patio high up in the Rocky Mountains. It was a beautiful day with high fluffy clouds and a view of the mountains all around.

The Bride had a brother-in-law who was some sort of hippie priest, and although she didn’t really trust him to do the ceremony, asked him to “say a few words”.

He stood up and read “Desiderata”, but towards the end, he changed the words to:

“Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him (OR HER) to be”

At the pronunciation of the words “OF HER”, there was a deafening clap of Thunder, and a simultaneous single bolt of lightening that struck a mountaintop right behind the speaker.

The whole congregation breathed a collective sigh of relief as the hippie priest sat down and shut his mouth for the remainder of the ceremony, which went off without further interuption.

Word for the day haiku:

Ends justify means?
No! My desiderata
are truth and respect.

Desi's daring-do dealing with Lucy was a desideratum for great comedy & key to the longevity of the hit show…
