Two in one day....

Just a funny little item to relate. One of my favorite comic strips is Wiley's "Non Sequitor". Besides some very biting commentary on current events, there exists in the Non Sequitor world an ongoing story about Joe Pyle. Joe is a single Father raising two Daughters, Danae the oldest and Kate the youngest. Danae is wise for her age, often making remarks that are very adult and show an unique outlook on the world. In one strip Danae is complaining to her Pet Horse Lucy that her Dad is making her read the paper everyday. Joe asks "What did you learn from reading the paper?" Danae responds with "Adults lie alot and say a bunch of stuff that has no meaning whatsoever..." Joe puts his head in his hands, shaking it back and forth. His Daughter asks "Did I say something wrong?" Dad says "Unfortunately no." Why the build up? Danae often times reminds me of my StepDaughter Liv. Here in Middle Tennessee there are two candidates running for the Senate seat that Bill Frist is giving up; Harold Ford Jr. and Bob Corker. There are constant typical political ads...."he's a schmuck, no he's a schmuck", etc, etc. Liv states to me and Cat on night that she just doesn't get it. "It's the same people in the commercials, and in one they are on that person's side, and in the other they are saying bad things about them. I'm confused!!" Just thought I'd share the unique outlook of Politics from the 12 year old mind. Unfortunately she's right........no matter which way you slice it in politics, it's always the same old Crap.
