Let me first say that I know virtually nothing about that new-agey whatever-whatever book that Oprah has been touting lately, but I am not one of those sissies who lets a complete lack of knowledge interfere with expressing a Strong Opinion. Let it further be mentioned that I take second place to nobody (well, almost nobody–Toi) in my admiration for Oprah. I mean, she’s like the Black Dolly Parton or something.
Anyhow, Oprah is not only touting the book, she’s giving classes about it, for heaven’s sake. I saw a minute or two of a show about it and it seems that this Eckhart dude likes for everybody to detach themselves from material things and live in the moment and all that, and far be it from me to say he’s not some kind of visionary, and Oprah too, for exposing the rest of us to it. I’m just thinking that maybe on the days that Oprah is helping to teach us to detach from material things that she might not want to wear those shoes with the red soles that cost about the same as the economy cars she gives away from time to time.
In other news, I believe that a hobo has put the “sucker” mark somewhere on my house, because just days after the Missionary Visit, the police have called with an offer I can’t refuse. I am now hosting several Needy Children at some kind of talent show or something. All I know is that I was invited to contribute to the Police Association, and a person in my position can not afford to anger the Police. They are sending a squad car or a SWAT team or some such around tomorrow to collect the money.
Maybe I’ll invite the missionaries back and we’ll make a party out of it.

I think the people that call and say they are wanting money for the “Police Whatever” give very little to the police. They keep like 80%. I always tell them I will just pay the individual cops off when they pull me over.
Comments like that last one are why I started my “Kathi D’s brother Bob” fan club!
Bob taught me nearly everything I know. That says a lot, doesn’t it?
You’re so good helping the needy children. I’m kind of thinking that maybe you could have a talent show and raise money for the needy chicks. They can’b cheap to raise. Why don’t the police help you out with that?
You do know that Christian Loubatain has as many people as she doesn’t making sure nobody talks naughty about his shoes, right? Did I even spell that right?!?
Uh-oh. I didn’t know that red sole shoe man had People.
I’m screwed.
You know, why must it always be about the needy children? The chickens have needs.
