The Poles… 1/12
No, this isn’t about our friends with an ending of ski or sky. Today we are looking at plus and minus. You know… white and black, positive and negative, democratic and republican, pears or peaches. This is about opposites.

This all came about this AM when I was trying to put on my socks and couldn’t tell my right from my left. When it comes to your gloves there is no problem; the thumbs are always on the wrong side. The same holds for the labeling of "one size fits all." Well, maybe not.

Somethings we really get it wrong, very wrong, like when hooking up your car battery and putting the positive on the negative. My eye lids are still puckered. The same holds true with talking politics in a crowd. We all feel that we have the only possible answer to world peace and all the other people are full of hot air...or something that come out of the wrong end of a male cow.
It’s taken 6 years for George W to realize that he and the boys do not have the answers. Now, the gang on the other side are all full of smiles pointing fingers saying, " We told you so!" but that’s all they have are we told you so’s.

No one has come to grips with the situation…. not within the last 1500 years. King Richard II got his butt kick now it’s George’s turn. Somehow we must relearn not to put the positive car battery cable on a negative ground. Stay turn for the next blog’s enlightenment and we’ll point fingers in the right direction.

Today’s wisdom,
"Once a job has been fouled up,
anything done to improve it makes it worse."
Mark Twain
