Anita Bryant used to say "A day without orange juice is like a day without sunshine". And the Florida orange juice people loved the former Miss Oklahoma right up until she put her foot in it over her comments about gays, to wit: "If homosexuality were the normal way, God would have made Adam and Bruce". But I digress.
I'm certainly not as popular as that daily glass of orange juice. And sunshine isn't exactly a term I'd see being applied to me. Heck, I don't even post every day. After 2 posts regarding my caption contest, Wednesday and Saturday, and one post highlighting the week's best editorial cartoons on Sunday I really only write two posts a week on Monday and Thursday. But even at two posts a week of original material I find the old noggin's sometimes runnin' on empty, bereft (oooo...big word!) of ideas to share with you.
And such is the case today. For the life of me I just can't come up with something that would hold your attention and maybe get a chuckle or two. And I certainly wouldn't insult you, my loyal readers, by sloughing (another big word!) off and writing a stupid post about not being able to come up with a post. No matter how difficult it is coming up with these comedic chef d'oeuvres (sacre bleu, a big word in another language!) I'd never lower myself to doing something sleazy like that.
And if I ever did, I hope you won't do to me what some people did to Anita Bryant. You might say she got her just desserts...
Comments
I feel your pain. It does seem that occasionally the one that I consider a poor excuse for a post is better received than the ones that I think are great. In a pinch any subject will have to sufice.
I run for the bus, dear
While riding I think of us, dear
I say a little prayer for you
At work, I just take time
And all through my coffee break-time
I say a little prayer for you

Hatred is never benign. Anita Bryant might have thought that she was merely expressing her personal opinion and a religious or political viewpoint, but the bottom line is, comments like that make it possible for Tracy Morgan to advocate violence against a child for being gay. And Tracy Morgan's comments create an environment where sticking a knife into a gay kid is nothing more than a joke.
I'm not okay with that. With any of that, actually.
And you do more than any glass of OJ. Woops, that could be misconstrued. I mean orange juice OJ, not the "other" OJ.

I've been gone "up north" however, not as "north" as ye. I just barely heard about the UNfunny Tracy Morgan gay act. Woops, THAT could also be misconstrued.
