By pulling up my Foxfire I was finally able to check my e-mail and send some out. Today my Internet and Internet Explorer are back to(ab)normal. Blame it on politics!
I did get out to vote this afternoon. I won't say who I voted for as my ballet is a "secret ballet." As I filled in the little boxes I noticed that close to half the seats had no competition-no one was running in opposition of the present incumbents. There are NO WOMAN candidates running against the "Good Old Boys." A few women who did try to run locally, were put down very fast and a little bit on the prejudices side. I know this for a fact because I saw it. Sometimes KY. is a little backward about moving forward.
I am glad to see some of the Rats getting voted out of office, However, if you don't keep a lid on the garbage can...the Rats will be back. It is hard to eradicate all the vermin. There may be a few that hide in the walls and like all undesirable Rats...they will multiply. Politicians no longer serve the people...they serve themselves. It's all about money and power. I am glad it is over...for now
***
ONLY IN GOD IS MY SOUL AT REST;
FROM HIM COMES MY SALVATION
HE ONLY IS MY ROCK AND
MY SALVATION, MY STRONGHOLD;
I SHALL NOT BE DISTURBED AT ALL.
****
Psalm 61: 1-3
****
We could not lead a pleasant life
And t'would be finished soon
If peas were eaten with a knife
And gravy with the spoon
Eat slowly: only men in rags
And gluttons old in sin
Make themselves for carpet bags
And tumble victuals in.
