No Lame Duck for Me

I would rather watch paint dry than witness Obama spewing more of his vapid, platitudinous jargon written by  unelected young men with no political experience of their own, so I ignored last night's prime time speech dedicated to whitewashing the "state of the union" and which was broadcast on no less than 20 channels, common in any self-respecting dictatorship, and instead found a rerun of "Everybody Loves Raymond" that made me laugh instead of cringe, which is my usual reaction to Obama's pathetic attempts at being presidential.

How anyone still likes him is a mystery to me. But then, so many things are. One in particular is the piano, so I am off to my first lesson in 50 years. At least that should be interesting.
