MAYBE THE PRESIDENT ELECT IS SPEAKING IN TONGUES. DID YOU EVER THINK OF THAT?
It has occurred to me the oncoming President speaks a language with which I am not familiar. He says things I cannot either understand, or believe that he meant to say. (i.e., the 27,000 or so lies in the first term, or Greenland, or Panama, or Gulf of Mexico things). What I am getting to is I think he must mean to say something other than what actually comes out of his mouth. It’s probably a disease. You could look it up in the Diagnostic Manual. I found a potential cure for this on Social Media, It is called “Op Talk”. (The best way to read this posting is to read it aloud from this point on.) Instead of speaking the way you normally do, add the syllable “op” after each consonant and pronounce the vowels. What this will do is slow you down and make you think a bit and maybe sane or intelligent words will come out of your mouth – instead of “I’m sitting on top of this big powerful battery, and the boat’s going down. Do I get electrocuted? You know what? Honestly, nobody’s ever asked me that question.” If he had had to say “I’mop sop-i-top-top-I-nop-gop o-nop top-o-pop o-fop top-hop-i-sop bop-o-a-top…” By the time he got as far as the boat he might have stopped to think about what the H E Double Hockey Sticks it was he was saying. …C’mon, do you think if he had said, I won-a-nop-top Hog-e-gop-sop-e-top-hop fop-o-rop Dop-e-fop-e-nop-sop-e…” that he ever would have suggested him for Secretary of Defense?…I think not. That is probably as much as the reader can take in at this moment – so we’ll leave you with two thoughts and sign off:
- “RIGHT SPEECH: No lying, no abusive speech, no divisive speech, no idle chatter” -This is the Third Step in the Eight Step Buddhist ‘Noble Path.’ (Of course Mr. Top-rop-umop-pop is not a Buddhist – he is something else.
- “Thou shall not bear false witness against thy neighbor!” -The 9th Commandment: But who reads these things anymore, what with all that is going on?
Goodbye, and a “Hello” to Bill, wherever you are.
