[High Praise! to According to Hoyt]
_______________
The Titanic of the blue state might have crashed, and yep, the Europeans (bless their hearts) are floating atop the grand piano and acting all superior.
But we are Americans, fergadssake. The grand piano isn’t good enough, and those d*mn bureaucrats provided too few lifeboats.
Which is why, in the time left, a few of us are building a paddle boat out of the deck chairs, the bandstand, the chimney stack and the dining room chandelier.
Come on and lend a hand, or at least get out of the way.
We’re Americans. We’ll survive this. And what’s more, we’ll do it big and splashy. American style.
Rumors of our demise are greatly exaggerated.

Love it. Hold the thought. The biggest threat to our kids future is the government itself, and they know it. Some of them even think that’s a reasonable risk if that’s what it takes to stop all this nasty freedom stuff. The only question is what are we going to have to go through to get them to go away.
The Europeans stood on the deck in their fur coats and pearls, refusing to get into the life boats because they were told the ship would never sink…and they believed it.
The Americans followed Molly Brown all the way to the deck of the Carpathia.
I wish I was as optimistic. Seems like an awful lot of Americans are willing to wait around for someone to do something and then try to squeeze in on the keyboard.
From your mouth to “gad’s” ear.
For any who missed it, a day or so ago Ms Hoyt began what she says “might” be a free novel to be published in parts on each Friday.
