Bitter Train Plan to Make America Great

Maybe you haven't noticed, but this is an election year. That means that everyone has an idea about how to fix all the problems that our country has.

But here's one that I bet you haven't considered.

In my administrative law class, I asked my students to research jobs at different government agencies and then to fill out an asignment with what they found out.

One outstanding student responded that the government agency that she'd like to work for is....not the FBI, not the Justice Department. No she wants to work for Glam Fairy as a make up artist.

There it is. The answer we've all been waiting for. Check this out Mitt and Barack....we need a government agency devoted to make up artistry. Talk about America the Beautiful---here it is.

Now, here's the big question. Who would be the head of this agency and what would their title be? Obviously Fairy Godmother would be fitting, but what personage is qualified for this job?

If you're old like me, you might suggest Tammy Faye Baker and I think that's a reasonable suggestion. But, all the candidates are trying to be hip and young so I'd suggest Snooky.

Any other suggestions?

P.S. This scenario again raises the issue "I went to law school for this?"

Don't Be Crabby

How did it happen that we went an entire month without blogging? Are you still with us? Wow, we were seriously MIA.

Somehow, this little purchase went undocumented:

The tag says that it is "genuine faux wood."

It was so worth it.
