it's hard to say

You ready for this “It’s Saturday?” I’m going to go at seat belt speed folks, so hang on (i.e. it’s going to look like a 103 mph fast ball by Cub’s ace reliever Aroldis Chapman). ItchieBitchie says—Just slow down erv, slow down. Some of you folks might say--Well, woo hoo!  And some of you might think that this “It’s Saturday” is no more than some more political snake oil (i.e. God knows we have heard enough of that). Regardless, buckle up folks!

I read in the paper sooooo it must be right—Much of what we think and do depends on how much money we have. Now that is a high-speed statement “right off the bat.”   Maybe we would rather not think of that.  But flip the pancake; I know many folks (i.e. many are you guys) that handle your wealth pretty good. But, I do think money does affect us if we like it or not.  Such is life. 

I read in the paper sooo it must be right--Hilary's "Hillblazers" have bundled together at least $137 million from folks in the securities and investment sector and more who work in other areas of finance and commercial banking (i.e. is that called a special interest group?). JoeBlow says-- It's hard to say why they would give sooooo much money. You think they want dibs on anything? Were you born in the barn JoeBlow? OhShucks says--There might be a fox in the chicken coup!  Do you really think they care about JoeTheSchmuck of rural MO who gave nutten to their campaign; come on folks, don't be soooo naive! OneSmartPerson says--Money in politics is the root of all that is bad (i.e. that is this person's opinion). Do you folks know that George Washington didn't want to be president.  Folks had to encourage him.  How thinks have changed.  Such is life.

Many think Donnie and Hilary have big heads and smirky similes.  I saw this kid going into Hy-Vee the other day and asked him if I could take his picture.  It just made me laugh. I asked him if he was a Trump supporter—you bet, he said.  I didn’t know if he was a supporter or making fun of him (i.e. this kid was maybe 12 years old). What a hoot! Such is life. 

SusieQ says—I always thought there was a lot of fake in this world and I am almost certain that it is true (i.e. if I like it or not).  Many folks will do almost anything fakey to help themselves accomplish something for their gain.  If you don’t believe me, ask DuaneTheWorm a.k.a. the phony of all phonies. Bingo! I read in the paper soooo it must be right—Politicians use their bullhorns to fire up the activists (i.e. who the paper said--many are disturbed people). Saturday question—How do folks become disturbed people? AverageJoe says—It’s hard to say.

I recently told a couple of folks that they have class.  Some folks have class and other don’t (i.e. most of you folks do; good hearts). The opposite of class is course, flamboyant, glitzy, flashy, grotesque, or vulgar. Some think that “non class” fits both of the candidates for President (i.e. I realize that some of you don’t agree).  LuckieEddie says--They might be misfits (i.e. or great politicians) but one of them is going to be President.  What is going on here folks?  Suck it up cupcake, it’s going to happen.  In a perfect world this wouldn’t happen. And we don’t live in a perfect world.  WorldClassLarry says—Co’on folks, accept the fact that neither one of them have a lot of class (i.e. at least many think that). AverageJoe says--That really depends who is doing the evaluation. Many feel we have a mess. Such is life.

I read in the paper soooo it must be right that Walmart is slowing down on U.S. store openings.  They are going to spend their time and effort in bolstering their online presence.  No surprise. The market is changing folks.  Probably we will/are going to see major changes in churches (i.e. that’s probably a no brainier folks).  A friend and I were talking about how we would suggest some churches might thing about changing.  Smaller churches, especially small rural churches will close as time passes because of lack of money and lack of folks. It’s happening and will continue.  Ok, here is what we think some churches should do—they don’t have a speaking pastor but simulcast or delay broadcast (i.e. sign up with a church who has a good speaking pastor). The local service would be done by the local pastor or lay person but the talk would be by a speaking pastor. In the digital world today, it can be done with great clarity and effectiveness.  Many of the large churches are doing it already (i.e. they call them different campuses).  Also, not all pastors are good, dynamic speaking pastors. Then each church hires a dynamic carrying pastor/lay person to take care of the folks with their personal needs (i.e. one who is very good with people). The real small churches could even hire a part time pastor but still have a quality service each Sunday. Hey folks, I saw the Sunday night football half time show; they showed all the Sunday afternoon high lights in about 30 seconds.  Folks want excitement and fast excitement. The same-o same-o isn’t going to cut the mustard folks. Boring doesn’t seem to work very well.  BUT folks, probably many churches will just close up (i.e. would rather shut the doors than change). There is a season for everything. BUT listen folks, for those who like it the old way, there are plenty of those churches tooo; at least for now. Such is life.

ItchieBitchie says--Some folks never get rehabbed; they are what they are and always will be what they are!  Ouchy ouchy! But there are folks that do change.  I have changed some, I think.  I have relearned once again that I’m not the general manager of the universe. That thinking of not needing to control, has lessened the stress in my life (i.e. it’s quite glaring). SusieQ says—Good idea swervinervin, the greater your need to control, the more stressed you’re going to be in life.

I went to get some milk at our local store.  The UNI football game was on the radio in the store.  I asked the clerk what the score was—She said--I have no idea; I’m not interested (i.e. I could care less).  Others are really interested in sports but I’m not. I might be interested in something else that they are not interested in. Interesting now isn’t it.  Now that is interesting folks.  Think through that folks. Just because we think it’s important, others might not. And they might be right. Huh, interesting. Crazy! Such is life.

2 + 2 = 5?  It’s hard to say but I have always been told to be around good folks who are positive (i.e. my Mom, Anna, told me that).  Most of you folks are just that (i.e. all but one of you, ha ha).  I have been soooo fortunate to be around such good folks like you guys (i.e. good folks can make you look “oh soooo good”). Thanksamillion folks! GeorgeTheCrook says—Negative folks are a real drag; don’t spend tooo much time around them.  WarrenFromOmaha says--A rule of grammar: double negatives are a no-no.

It's sooo interesting that folks enjoy "total fiction." They know it's make believe. They enjoy "suspending their disbelief" to maybe a point that they think it is almost realty. A great diversion of the mind. Folks want political candidates to talk about the issues.  You know why they can’t? ‘cause they can’t get elected talking about the issues and what it takes to solve the issues.  Examples:  The Social Security is going to be broke they say in 2031.  Soooo if a candidate suggests that we might have to lessen the benefits 35% and tax the working folks maybe another 25%, the voters won’t vote for them especially if their opponent says they will increase benefits.  You get it.  Our national debt is crazy.  Let’s face it folks, if candidates say they are going to cut entitlements by 35% and increase taxes 35% and their opponent says they plan to give more entitlements, (i.e. free from Santa Claus). They don’t have a change to get elected by discussing the possibilities of correcting the problems.  Suspending their disbelieve!!!! 

erv’s money back guarantee—Everything will change. Absolutely! No question.  Most probably will not like the change but it will happen (i.e. there is a season for everything). You can take that to the bank. That is as good as gold.  No question. It will happen. Maybe not like many would like, but it will happen. That is a guarantee by erv. History proves that folks. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure that out (e.g. you can't have negative spending forever).  Bingo!

Ok folks, some of you think I’m way out of whack.  I could be! BUT we who live in America that is a democratic form of government.  I like it.  The government is the people for the people (i.e. what the majority wants we get).  I like that tooooo. BUT think through that folks. Who is the majority and does the majority change? Is the majority always right?  Trick or treat; give us something good to eat!

Have a FUN day my friends unless you have other plans, (-:

MyFriendJean says—Some of us are like wheels, only useful when pushed and very easily upset. 

P.S. Remember when I talked about a friend who tells me that I should always talk to him before talking to women as I don't seem to say the right words?  If Trump would have hired him for advice, Trump might have been a lot better off.  I asked my friend what he would have said to him. He said--Keep your mouth shut! That's seems pretty simple!

Hey folks, I try to treat and talk to gals the same as guys. Aren’t I suppose tooo?  It appears my friend thinks I’m missing something. Am I? I like women; yes, I do.  Actually, they are a lot prettier than my golf buddies.  I don’t want you gals to get an acrimonious idea of me (i.e. do I need to be politically correct when I talk to you gals?).  If Hilary gets elected are the Russians going to talk to her different than to Donnie if he gets elected?  I don’t know; it's hard to say. Obviously, I don’t know what I’m talking about sooooo I think I just better take the advice of my friend—Keep my mouth shut!  Saturday question--Ladies, how do you want me to talk to you? I have to admit, I'm confused. Or can you have it both ways? Do you want it both ways? Soooo when I play pickleball, am I suppose to play different and talk different to ladies and men? How about in business? Totally confused; I'm sorry folks.  I better call my friend the way it looks. He knows how to handle women; obviously I don't! I'm sorry to say and admit, I don't have a clue what's going on!  Such is life.
