"I don't approve of that, either"

Everyone with the hook-ups this summer. Everyone with the crazy relationships and the wearing and the cuddling and the zoo and the mixing. It's been more than a little insane. Of the two most notable, one of them's like Randy Johnson pitching in the minors. Which one am I talking about, I'm not sure anymore. But they've both been tipping the richter scale of tang lately so more power to 'em. And apparently, social security's hotter to some more than others. The Hugh Poland show with special guest stars Siskel & Ebert (two thumbs up) was in full force this morning. It's become less of an experience and more of a carnival sideshow to sit back, enjoy, and occasionally pity. We're spectators, not participants. We forfeited that right when none of us ever objected to HP and the PowerWind Hooter-Tooters bustin' out the three minute instrumental solos. All that's missing is a little witty banter from La Bamba in the horn section to cap off this variety show of song and dance. Maybe they could get Lou the Jew and his daughter Sue to write them some clever one-liners. I've pretty much given up on trying to take it seriously. Sorry. But it's all in good fun. These aren't bad people, just really funny to watch. As for the relationships, knock yourselves out, all of you. Give yourself a couple of stories to be able to talk about in couple's therapy when your marriage with that person (or another one) is falling apart. Naw, ya'll are fine.
