Quote of the day:

Never judge a country by its politicians.
—Alfred Hitchcock 

There was a manila envelope in the mail box.

What could it be, I thought to myself.

Perhaps a calendar?

I used to contribute to the World Wildlife Fund and they’d send me a calendar every year, which I’d hang up on my refrigerator or someplace similar. I really haven’t had a need for a calendar in many years because I do everything via my devices: Apple iMac, iPhone, iPad, etc. which all share the built-in Calendar app. So I’d often forget to turn the calendar page and find that the calendar was still showing May when it was already October.

It’s been a few years since I made a contribution to the WWF, but perhaps they were trying to get me to renew the acquaintance so to speak.

I ripped open the manila envelope and there to my wondering eyes should appear:

But that didn’t look like a WWF calendar. That looked like that asswipe Ronald Reagan.

Yuck!

Why would anybody be sending me a Reagan calendar? The stupidest president we’ve ever had. Well, until the current one, of course. The stupidest president of the twentieth century.

There was an accompanying letter From the Desk of Michael Reagan. Apparently it was from the Young America’s Foundation.

I couldn’t be bothered to read the damn thing as I didn’t want to barf, but I saw enough to glean that they wanted a $25 donation.

On a cold day in hell.

Meanwhile, what to do about the calendar?

Clearly I wasn’t going to hang it up.

But then I got to thinking, and you know me, sometimes ideas just pop into my head.

I could use a dart board.

Now all I need are some darts.
