I saw a T Shirt on Facebook last night and I will admit I entertained the idea a little. It said
"Vote for Bob Ross".
For those of you with no clue who Bob Ross is, Mr. Ross is a man who painted on the local cable network PBS channel 16 it was here. I am not sure if he was ever really famous, but this man had a style about him.
What caught your attention (well honestly after the giant afro thing on his head) was phrases like
"Let's give this tree a friend, like I always say everyone needs a friend"
and
"The secret to doing anything is believing that you can do it. Anything that you believe you can do strong enough, you can do. Anything. As long as you believe."
He seems to have the concept of Washington asnd government down pretty well
"That's a crooked tree. We'll send him to Washington."
"Oooh, if you have never been to Alaska, go there while it is still wild. My favorite uncle asked me if I wanted to go there, Uncle Sam. He said if you don't go, you're going to jail. That is how Uncle Sam asks you."
So, aside from the fact that the guy's dead, (and really not sure that would matter to our government some days...) imagine a world where we aren't constantly looking for the next war, where our country believes in itself again, and where "We don't make mistakes, we just have happy accidents."
(stepping off of soap box now)
So, who are you guys on today?
