“Married me a wife, she’s been trouble all my life” – Grateful Dead

Looking at three straight weekends housebound with the Lovely Old Lady (LOL) as another storm targets Boston.  Clinical depression was passed on the first weekend, now beyond suicidal but don’t have either the mental concentration or physical strength ti pull it off.   Can’t find a glimmer of hope anywhere.  Furthur won’t even announce it’s Northeast Spring Tour dates.  Speaking of which on the band’s message boards a fan described winter as kind of like being on a broken roller coaster, with every pass, the park staff says, “We’re working on the problem.”

Seriously, why couldn’t I have been Ryan Seacrest or Randy Jackson?  No real talent or ability but a big paycheck.  Of course Randy has to sit next to the Cabbage Patch Doll that is Mariah Carey.  I know television adds ten pounds but Mariah really?  Any mirrors in your 50,000 square foot mansion?

Hey Oscar Pistorius every guy hates Valentine’s Day, but seriously?  Before you question his defense keep in mind South Africa not a big fan of women.  The country also has one of the highest rates of fatal domestic violence in the world.  Many of which go unpunished.  Nonetheless I won’t be locking myself in the bathroom at any point this weekend.

Not sure when both Congress and President became no show jobs with a big paycheck.   Name one accomplishment in the last four years.  Who cares?  Do you care? I don’t give a flying f…, Obamacare.   Wish they would all just man up and throw us all over the fiscal cliff.  That would put a stop to the constant chatter.    Hey when the going gets tough (and Winter gets long in Washington) go to Florida and play a few holes with Tiger Woods.  With Michele and the kids in Hawaii I wonder what they played at night? Go Fish or maybe Twister?  Heard Bill Clinton and Greg Norman were in charge of the 19th hole.   At least George W spent eight years screwing things up to a fare the well while Wall Street, Big Oil and Haliburton robbed both the American public and the US Treasury.

How about those Red Sox?  Three years ago I was writing John Henry was a moron.  Now Terry Francona agrees and he’s a genius.   At least the book provided GM, Boy Blunder Theo with an excuse (how about those Cubbies, still 100 years from a Championship but now stuck with Theo’s salary and incompetence).   But things are going to be different this year Red Sox Nation, ring any 86 year old bells?

I know not the greatest post, but given the length of the winter the push of every key is a major task.  Bad time of year to quit Red Bull, Poppy tea, and smokes.  I mean what the hell are the LOL and I going to do this weekend, talk to each other?

“When going through Hell, keep going”  Winston Churchill Winston never spent a winter in Boston.
