    That dad’s father probably said the same thing to him. Do most fathers want their sons to follow in their footsteps?

    OK. I just noticed that the boy is only thinking those words. He’s not saying them out loud. Some things should probably not be said out loud.

    My father once said to me, “One day all this will be yours.” I thought, “I want my own stuff, not your old junk.”

    If you know the rules, you know how to make them work in your favor and/or get around them.

    Thanks for the Del Shannon blast from the past, and 45’s. You’re older than the hills.

    ……..“broken”…….Witness the corruption of the golden rule, by the reeps. …..he who holds the gold, and the reins to power…..And a whole lotta other rules and bits of wisdom spoken of by the Nazarene, whom they profess to worship.Most of the other stuff regarding morality in the good book, too.

    “When free unions and collective bargaining are forbidden, freedom is lost.”.

    Ronald Reagan1980

    He and subsequent bought and paid for reeps+Wall Street+vulture capitalists with big $$$ have engaged in non-stop union-busting ever since.Unions cut into profits that could otherwise be stashed in tax-avoidance havens around the world.

    And the timeless cycle of rebellion and self-realization goes on. So, how come my career paralleled my dad’s so closely? I’m glad it’s Friday. Otherwise I couldn’t face all the implications.

    I’m announcing the formation of the Frog Blog Caption Improvement Society (a subdivision of the increasingly irrelevant TDL (Teresa Defense League)).

    Re: PEEL POTATOES WITH A CRANK

    The better caption would be: PEEL POTATOES WITH A CRANK WEARING A BOWTIE

    Who’s with me on this? Marg? Crazy Hooter? Larry the Spinning Head? Geriatric Canis Lupis? Tokyo Bunny? The Chevron Avenger? Mr. Burrit (a/k/a nighthawks)? Bueller? Bueller?

    P.S. to Tee: Don’t mention it. In fact, I’ll say it for you.

    ♥YES, WE FEEL THE LOVE♥

    Hold the horses of the potato crank peeler man, rotifer and ottod! Weren’t you BOTH accused of being Teresa at one time? Or is that oxcart? oxmate? (Something like that.)

    Of course you think that kind of thinking is a good idea… YOU ARE TERESA.
