Sea } - { 1958 } a classic Ernest Hemingway tale of an old
timer cuban fisherman with a lust for the simple life.
Seldom in need of anything more fancy than a simple cup
of Java and a bowl of soup with crusty week old bread.
With a never say die attitude about going out to score
a really big fish.A record Marlin,if life allows.With thick strong
hands and weathered wooden boat with single sail,and
the stars to guide his journey he goes about trying to land a
big fish.Because it may take more than a day.
Compare that to - The Old Man and the Presidency - { 2022 }
Where all the guy has to do is not act too nutty.Isn't reguired to
explain his actions or even answer the Press,as his former better
{ Donald Trump } did on a regular basis.On the Lawn outside
the White House.In plain sight.No wardrobe necessary or - Top Gun -
aviator sunglasses.Just a dark blue suit and ever-present Red Tie.
Feeling glad for the opportunity to express his duties and what
he hopes to accomomplish.Compared to this frail,shell of a current
Potus,who couldn't land a guppy in a guppy aquarium with the bestest
widdle kiddie guppy net around.Maybe one sold around the corner from
Saks Fifth Avenue on 5th avenue.But that'd be Dreamin'. I don't think
even an aging old cuban fisherman wants to rely on dat.
The Old Man : " Do not blame the hand,it is not the hands fault "
" I don't think so -- there are too many tricks "
Talking to himself alone on an old wooden boat as he goes about
his fishing.

 
Which should naturally beg the question.I wonder if Old Slow
Joe's inner personality { Alter Id competing with his Super Ego }
every once in a while signals for Joe to just Shut the Hell up
already.Yer causing Brain Freeze.The other cells are gettin'
sick of it.They need a vacation.From You ... Mister High and Mighty
Dr.Potus with the shades.And the brittle walk.Even yer dandruff has
about had it.I dread to think what yer dentures mite chatter if given
a chance.Proilly a much deserved ... :
Hullabaloo
