My Oldman knew right away if I wasn’t telling the truth. He would say you can’t bullshit a bullshitter.
You can have the deepest faith and be the kindest person, but if you lack integrity…
…it’s a wash. It doesn’t count.
You can lie to everyone else. You can take the liberty of bullshitting everyone else, but you can’t lie or bullshit yourself.
The truth is always faster.
Today is Johnny Mercer Day. “Skylark” is a tune of his that I am partial to. Though he helped Henry Mancini with “Moonriver” and that is the night-night song that I sing to Hazel.
Someday it might be the song we dance to at her wedding. Many years from now if you ever read this daughter!
Today is Monday, Monday and a rainy day at that. Makes me think of Mama Cass and Karen Carpenter. Two people that never got in an argument over a sandwich.
I’m here all week. Please tip your waitress and the bartender on your way out.
