Yes, I know. 
I said that you should expect a big finish…

Crackers in the hand.
Revolution. Gone.
Big, Big Finish…

Well, guess what?  I got nuthin’.
I really thought somethin’ was going to come to me but… nope.

So, I thought about telling you about  the other night when I went out for a few beers in Delray Beach, Florida at a great little watering hole called The Ugly Mug…

Where I was introduced to a helluva nice guy.  An overly muscular personal trainer, who was wearing one of those gym shirts, just in case you were wondering how he’d gotten that way.  This black gentleman was introduced to me as D-Train…

So, I thought of saying, “Hey…  I’m from Brooklyn”.
As, I’m pretty sure the D-Train goes through Brooklyn.

But then I thought, “Oh…  I bet his name is Dave or Daryl and he’s a TRAINer.” So, instead I said, “D-Train?  I hope someday white people can have cool names like that.”

What can I say, I was on a roll.  I had just told the joke about the Rabbi and the Catholic Priest.  So even if D-Train didn’t throw me into the third rail, I’m probably getting hit by lighting the next time that I get too close to a church or maybe a synagogue, or for that matter, a Cinnabon.

I don’t know why…  I just thought they sounded similar.  Synagogue, Cinnabon – whatever.  I guess I’m not making matters any better. The lightining thing seems inevitable.

Anyway, I got nuthin…

I was going to come up with some sort of a highly inspired blog entry about the end of one year and the begining of the next.  Maybe all the great things that we should be looking forward to in 2012.  Maybe I was going to talk a little bit about our broken political system, and how tired I am of hearing Democrats bashing the Republicans, and the Republicans bashing the Democrats, when in actuallity – they both need to be bashed.

Maybe I was going to touch upon our country’s pending financial crisis, which I believe is continuing to loom closer and closer every day, as our government continues to spend money that we don’t have.

Example:  I love how Obama extended the Bush Tax Cuts.  Everyone knows that we can’t afford the Bush Tax Cuts.  In fact, the whole Democrat platform is based on the fact that we can’t afford such things.  So a Democrat President extends them???   Don’t you hate when people do the popular thing, instead of doing what’s right.  It must be an election year.  But it’s absolutely exemplary of what’s wrong with our government.  It’s always about getting elected or re-elected.  It’s NEVER about doing the right thing for everyone.

But I’m not going to talk about that…  🙂

Nope.

At the end of the day, I’m just happy that the holidays are over.  Barnsley went back to England to visit his family.  And I’m going to spend a few quite days back on the island…

Of course, I’ll probably have to head over to Jost and  Occupy Foxy’s on Old Year’s Night…

Other than that, I’m taking it easy and keeping my comments to myself.
After all – Nothing Changes on New Year’s Day.

Peace
