Spin Dry

[stilltrucking]

Laundramat, washing my white shirt for the silent vigil today. News blasting on the TV. Watching the blame game. Shaking my head, a sweet little old lady sitting watching too. She sees me shaking my head and nods. I feel a little connection. Yes she sees it too. Then she says, The governor of Louisiana should be shot!” Then I recognized her, Madame Lafarge. Then my machine cycled to spin. Yes this one will be spun away too. Bush got a sign on his desk pointing south. "The buck stops there."

It seems to be working. Just how stupid is the american public.

P T Barnun was wrong, a lot more of one sucker born every minute. Man I had to bite my tongue. I almost said something to her but I figured silence was mor eloquent. But she saw the look on my face when she said that. Maybe she got the message.

What could I have said to her. Quote the queen of hearts? "Off with her head."
