A Few Things

First of all, I want to wish everyone a merry Christmas. And also a peaceful, prosperous and happy New Year. If you are of a praying nature, please offer a prayer for our country. If you are not of a praying nature, you might give it a try. It can't hurt and you may be surprised at the comfort it can bring. We are at a great crossroads and have an opportunity for resurrection. A resurrection our country badly needs.

Secondly, I know that I haven't been writing much lately. A few small problems make it difficult for me to type. Hopefully I'm on the way back.

And finally, I have a Christmas present for you. I have written new lyrics to an old song. With apologies to Roger Whitaker, this is to the tune of "The Last Farewell".

There’s a truck that sits all loaded at the White House,

Tomorrow to old Georgetown it goes.

From his land full of sycophants and servants

To our land where one uses his own dough.

No magnificent free vacations.

No longer will the traffic clear the way.

For he has screwed us all and harmed our own great country,

More deeply than the spoken word can tell.

His silence would be great.

More welcome than the spoken word can tell.

There’s a wicked war ablazin’ in the Mideast.

But mind you all he is not to blame.

It might be Bush or Trump or Hillary.

But naught was ever done bad in his name.

He claims he knows more than the generals.

But real problems went unsolved.

For he has screwed us all and harmed our own great country,

More deeply than the spoken word can tell.

His silence would be great.

More welcome than the spoken word can tell.
