LETTER TO THE EDITOR: The times they are a-changin’
Published 11:38 am Friday, June 21, 2024
I heard-tell that there WAS a a day when Men were Men, Women were Women (no offence intended) and the Earth was spinning steadily on only one axis. Something changed and PUBLIC bathrooms host whomever, just like private bathrooms do, and Mother Earth is spinning out of control on a wobbly axis these days. Change IS a basic law of the Universe, but WHO could have seen this coming?
I, personally , hold a few ‘out there’ positions and opinions and beliefs…everyone I have met so far does too. I, however, DO NOT try to FOISTER them upon others who disagree; I DO NOT assume illegitimate powers that the Founding Fathers did not intend to bestow; I DO NOT stumble around getting lost seemingly in a haze and my last name is NOT BIDEN.
Sooo, to change back to a more sensible time, to restore a semblance of order, to re-capture the respect lost over only 3 1/2 years; to cast out the infidels; to NOT have to witness MY tax dollars being spent to buy votes from those who hold radical ideas regarding Who, What, Where, When and Why we are to become moving ‘forward’ and to be able to get a good night’s rest again,GNRA,…we must put our differences aside , stop hating the man himself and re-jigger this thing in November…before it is TOO late.
Historians have observed that throughout the eons of man’s existence on this tiny planet one singular event can change the course of history. Oddly (?) enough weapons that caused death were usually involved. The death of an Archbishop (WWI), the merry massacre of the Romanoff family (solidifying communism forever?), and, most profoundly perhaps, the death of Beatle John that altered the course of Pop Music up until the rise of Taylor Swift.
I have learned just recently that I too should avoid the company of Bimbo Porn Queens or I may become a FELON! I also got a lesson in the meaning of Attorney-Client secrecy…or the lack thereof. Now I will NOT get all doped up and illegally by a gun, lie about it, go to a courtroom and exit with my MOMMY as a triple Felon whose Da Da no longer has his back (we’ll see about that one real soon). I will nevermore trust ANYONE over 30 unless there is ‘Hush Money’ involved.
I sincerely hope that I will not see another brilliant piece written by Mike Reagan about what is wrong with the world…and I trust that someday we will substitute the world HOPE where we always seem to be using the word HATE.
