Dude.

I notice you’ve been unusually thoughtful and sober-minded of late.

Holiday blahs? I hope nothing more serious.

Hope too that your almost charming, yet slightly grating, insouciance returns post-haste.

Somehow you make me think of the old joke—I want to attribute it to President Coolidge, but that can’t be right, can it?—about the woman who approached someone who was known to be droll, and said. “So I hear you’re quite the comedian. Say something funny.”

“Pleased to meet you,” he replied.

Aww, your concern is sweet. I think perhaps you've somehow only picked up on my serious posts. I'd say it's about 50/50 these days, which I think is probably my historical average.

Love that Coolidge quote, hilarious!

Happy New Year too. One year closer to *that* magnificent perp walk out of the White House, after which we can start steam cleaning the stink out of the curtains and replacing all the stolen artwork and office supplies.


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.
