Whatever Works
Monthly Archives: April 2014
Thanks to Fox News, Easter has survived to fight another day. Whew.
Here comes Peter Cotton Tail
Hoppin’ down the bunny trail
Hippity hoppity Easter’s on its way.
Bringing every girl and boy
Baskets full of Easter joy
Things to make your Easter bright and gay.
There’ll be jelly beans for Bobby. Colored eggs for sister Sue.
There’s an orchid for your Mommy, and an Easter basket too!
Uh-oh, they’re on the march . . .
Be afraid, be very afraid.
Of course
Not only did I miss this, but it’s apparently been an annual tradition just like the War on Christmas.
I have a few things I like to bring out for an annual viewing too. Like this:

Doocy knows that blame must be placed – on you-know-who
Of course they went there. The very next day.
From the couch of the stupid, Elizabeth Hasselback lamented that ““ you have our soldiers not being able to arm themselves . . . if they do have a weapon, they are to register it within five days of purchase. . . then that must be stored away in these lockers so that it cannot be carried on their person, therefore leaving them vulnerable.”
Doocy then pointed to the current Democratic president by quoting a conservative blogger: “Gateway Pundit, which is a way right-leaning blog, what they write this morning is, ‘The Obama administration is responsible for this mass shooting. They witnessed this before, they didn’t learn a thing. Gun-free zones are death zones. It is time to stand up to the lunacy.’”
Agreed.

The fashion cure? Beats cod liver oil
So, you got a wee Vitamin D deficiency ma’am? No problem at all – just step over here and we’ve got a little fluorescent blanket and we’ll wrap it up inside this little bunting kind of blanket. Good. Now, we’ll fit on these special shades – made just for very recent arrivals like you – because when we turn on those lights . . . .
This is Grace Elizabeth who joined us early Saturday morning. We’ll call her Ellie.
