Folded Thought of the Day: It's a first-class ticket to a better understanding. Quite the bargain when you really take a close look at the numbers. No time left on the ticker. Got to make the big leap. It's a hobby of mine. A casual type of conversational, sit around the old table and kick a few back, last ditch effort. Wearing the convictions that have been firmly sewed into your sleeve. Taking an interest in the final outcome. Have you seen the latest window display? Quite the living beauty. The dye has been cast. The sign has been given. You've just got to take a moment to notice...to decide to take everything you thought you knew or believed or had a firm understanding of and throw it on the growing landfill. C'mon...it's all the rage. Potting the soil. Planting the seed of notion...of sealed grievances. You can watch it all unfold but it's not going to undermine the real possibility that we're all making a big thing out of nothing...out of a sudden comparison. Don't count this count this kid out yet. I've still got a few tricks up the sleeve...a few marked cards to deal out and an illusion or two to project on the side of the abandoned skyscraper in the middle of town. Arriving at just the right time. You find yourself caught up in an old newsreel. Walking away from a sudden appearance... an apparition. Countdowns often lead to nothing. And black and white are often not what they appear to be...not to mention what they claim. Who here has anything to gain from telling the truth? When so many possibilities present themselves...ripe for the picking...for the mildly ambitious among us. Where do you look when you are waiting for the outcome? I guess you set your sights on the spot where you think it's all going to go down. Well, you can miss quite a bit that way. - - - - - - - - - -
