At Random

I work on the tenth floor of a landmark building that exists in White Plains New York. I got to work and got on the elevator with an elderly gentleman who resembled a cross between Martin Short and Woody Allen. Something compelled me to say "hello, how are you?", this man is a complete stranger, I have never seen him in this building before. he replied "oh, I'm o.k. and how are you...?" "Surviving" I replied. He followed that by saying " I guess that's all you can do at this point. You know this country isn't what it should be. The Bush has single-handedly ruined this great country with his, his, mismanaging of everything. It's terrible, don't get me started. " I told him I agreed whole heartedly, and he left on his floor. That's where we are. A stranger's expression, in an elevator.
This country is great and I love it...we just need to grab hold of those boots straps real tight.
I watched a bit of the debate, and McCain keeps using "my friends" and "this guy" when he refers to Barak. I think McCain is a little robot too when he takes the microphone and waddles around the platform and tries to raise his arms up to make a point. O.k. that was mean, but he's not Presidential material.
There is a good time coming in this country. Just hold tight. Good things happen. Just at random.
It's a hot October day. Be well.
