It's Saturday, November 1, 2008 up in heaven and the Saints are living it up: It's ALL SAINTS DAY! Yep, I can see them now discussing, even arguing politics, baseball, who's number one in the BCS ratings? Can't you see St. Paul and St. Omar Hussein Quater battling over Barack's background! Wait a minute: THERE ARE NO ARAB SAINTS OR ARE THERE?
But my favorite saint and he must be a Democrat, is St. Francis of Assisi, who loved animals, you know like me and Tony LaRussa. Fran used to go up and down the street picking up worms on the sidewalk and taking them to safe havens. Well that would make him a knee jerk environmental freak according to the likes of "W", you know the guy who is presently President of the US! You know, the guy who doesn't read newspapers, but does read his bible every night, when he goes to sleep at 10 PM, waiting earnestly for Laura to come to bed, after she sneeks her fifth smoke of the day! Yep, thats him!
Well, here's to you St. Francis! You are my favorite but coming up on the outside is the great St. Anthony (My uncle's name and several of my uncles are Tonys) My confirmation name is Tony! Just yesterday when I was heading for physical therapy I could not find my wallet. Immediately, I had a talk with Tony and within two minutes I found the doggon thing (Sarah talk) in my jacket, right under my left tit (Sarah talk). There it was and oh boy, was I happy. Within this black leather wallet (purchased at Nordstroms (Sarah talk) was some of the most important papers any great American would want to possess: SOCIAL SECURITY CARD. (Yes, we've had those things since 1933 when those socialists, the Democrats under the leadership of FDR (genuflect to St. FDR), passed the law that guaranteed us old folk would have some income, which we would put away for a cold rainy day in St. Louis (I'm thinking Florida).
Oh, by the way the Republicans opposed this bill in Congress and continue to poke around for ways to privatize it these days. You no likie Social Security. Poll ten seniors and see what they say!
Oh yes, in that wallet were my Medicare and supplementary medical insurance cards. If I said this to a European (the hell with those Frenchies and NAZI's and piss on those Limmies!) they would say Ugh!
Ever here of guaranteed medical care if you're one of ours? In the USA, its called socialist medicine. Woooooooooooooo! Question: Did you accept the check from the good old USA for aid to your kid for college? It wasn't a whole lot but every little bit counts.
Guess what? Socialized education! Wooooooooooooooo! But those cards, those Medicare and AARP (I'm a dog lover) cards are a must when you enter the doctor's office! (AARP AARP!!!!). Driver's License you bet was in there! A Wehrenberg Pass for some movies, a must for this dude, a few credit cards and check cards. So thanks again St. Anthony for helping this old crud find something he's lost!
You are definitely in my prayers. Finally I really like this guy or girl (not sure) but for now we'll say, HE is an angel by the name of St. Michael the Archangel (meaning he's like an Archbishop as opposed to angel and bishop) Meaning: He's big! There is no greater prayer than the one to St. Michael, which I present each morning screwing up the words, like most singers do with the national anthem or Star Spangled Banner. (SIU Band)(Charlie at Blues and Rams games). St. Michael the Archangel I feel is always with me and I know he has saved me from many a car wreck, plane crash, accident ready to happen! He or she is just there for me and I know it! Even in bad times, he's there for me and I often wonder if the angels and archangels play each other, maybe five on five and if they would let that Islamic candidate for President in the game. (oh I forgot, he's Christian) But he's a terrorist, at least "I think so" claims Vougish Sarah! "You betcha I know the duties of the VP!"
Anyway its a great day for the Saints and tonight the McBride class of 1953 will gather at the Sheraton Hotel to celebrate our departure from High School and some great stories and lies will be forthcoming, you know just like the ones Johnny boy has been spouting. (He did learn from his ass kicking by Karl Rove, you know, Bush's Brain!
I've got to run to Walgreen's for some more PILLS. I think I'll run over to Blockbuster and pick up "Sicko" by that Socialist, Communist, Terrorist, horrible person Michael Moore.
I'm warming up for the big week next week which is always exciting for us poltico. Hey, Johnny Boy, my son told me there were lots and lots of people voting early in Maplewood the other day. He waited for over two hours and will receive the Christonian $5 reward, issued to all sons voting and they do vote Democrat, not Repub!
I think most of those in line were Demos too, so Kit Bond better get going, figuring out ways to challenge the Boards of Voting Commissioners around the state of MO. I will be out of the state on Tuesday, so I was able to vote on the second day we could absentee.
Of course MO, because of a Republican Yokel Legislature, does not have early voting, only Absentee Voting! In fact the Republicans prefer light voting in every election and sometimes they get their wish but not this year!
It's another great day in the neighborhood and here's to some of my favorite Demos like George Clooney, Harry Truman, Andrew Jackson,
Harry Reid (tough little boxer from Nevada and our majority leader), the great HHH, Susan Sarandon, Andy Williams, Teddy (we love ya!), Debbie Wasserman Schultz, oh baby, what talent! (not Jim Talent, Alban Barkley who married Mrs. Hadley right on Kingshiway and Waterman in the West End and was a great VP and my old pal from Army Days in Ft. Smith, Arkansas (Camp Chaffee), Charlie Hamilton from Central Catholic High School (now Assumption).
It's time to sign off for Saturday and today and tomorrow, FOOTBALL!
I've been wondering about some of those tailbacks in the spread: You think they might be ayrabs?
