Studpidity

When stupid just does not cut it.... Yes, I am hereby adding this term to my mental dictionary. Studpidity refers to the type of stupidity that breeds. Much like the mucus that is slowly invading my lungs now (Santa, I want pneumonia for Christmas), studpinity has overtaken our televisions (yes, I am talking about you, Glen Beck - you are not a thinker!)and is swallowing whole our nation. Case in point: the CEOs that don't understand basic finance but collect $40M, Harvard MBAs that don't understand anything substantive - like running our nation or a baseball team, college students that despite a pretty decent education refuse to think critically, and the idealistic who are morphing quickly into do-nothing cynics. Studpinity is a hella fine word.

Will Wonders Never Cease

I have been struggling with a mucus attack of late. I have gross stuff coming out of all of my face holes. It majorly sucks. I think my head has decided to bog itself down in the literal morass of our current administration. My head is a metaphor for our struggling economy and embarrassing foreign policy. The painful cough that won't go away and hurts whenever it rears its ugly head? That is our military actions in Afghanistan and Iraq. The sniffles in my nose? That is our market sloughing off into nothing and infecting our neighbors. I blow away the value of our dollar with every sneeze. The drip drip into my ears? That is bipartisan bickering over a solution. Unlike the country, my cold is getting better and will likely pass in the next couple of days. I simply need to continue to flush my system with tons of water.... hmm.... I won't go there.
