No Shoe Polish, Sherlock

You know when you just want to spout an expletive, but have to be careful you don't offend?  Well shoe polish is my expletive for today.

I've been lurking around the Yahoo and Twitter communities today and find I can't ignore the swine flu or Mel Gibson.

I just know that the media is desperate for the ultimate discovery of swine flu within the halls of Congress. 

Schools and businesses are being shut down.  People are masked and scrubbed raw.  It sort of makes one wonder just how long this can go on before everything shuts down.

After all, we are pandemic driven.

Then comes Mel Gibson with his version of the Octomom.  Hee-hee.  She's his new girlfriend!  Seriously!  I'm not the only one who saw the resemblance.  Which also leads me to wonder if Nancy Pelosi and the Octomom have the same plastic surgeon. 

Remember the character, Mr. Bill?  Well, 'ooo-nooo', lips, bulging eyes and frozen expression seems to be the common tie.

So...Shoe polish...SHOE POLISH...SHOE POLISH.  There's just no other way to shout right now.  After all, we need to be politically correct in all things.

That's another thing that drives me wild.  Why so much PC angst?  Certain people/groups can say whatever they wish. 

SHOE POLISH.  As in: "No shoe polish, Sherlock."

That's a wrap for now.
