(But always while Alone—Don’t want people to think I AM THAT much Certifiable)
Point is, and I have written on this before…
Point is, I am a Cock-Eyed Optimist.
No one, No Event, No personal Tragedy, No Spilt Booze Will Ever Rob Me of My Naïve Optimism.
(OK, Spilt Booze just Might Make Me Waiver—For a Moment)
But other Than Spilt Booze, Never Gonna Happen. Never gonna lose my optimism
And for that resilient resilience, I am grateful.

Here is the Lame FaceFuk Post which was the Geneses of this TT&H post.
I drop it in only for full-disclosure / transparency purposes.

“You used to think that it was so easy
You used to say that it was so easy
But you’re tryin’, you’re tryin’ now
Another year and then you’ll be happy
Just one more year and then you’ll be happy
But you’re cryin’, you’re cryin’ now.”

And Thanks to Gerry
P.S., “And then he’ll settle down, in some quiet little town
And forget about everything.”
Yep. Did that. Doing that. Livin’ The Dream Right Here in Commerce, America. Who says ‘You can Never Go Home Again?” I call ‘Bullshit’ on That Sentiment.

Gentle Readers,
Realizing full-well that I have been on my ‘Soapbox’ of late, and I may have come across as somewhat ‘Preachy,’ but please understand:
I am NOT trying to tell ANYONE how to live their life.
I am merely communicating how I choose to live mine.
For me: It is a ‘Survival Thing.’
And if, by some Disturbance in the Ether, just one person ‘Gets’ me.
That is just gravy—and worth my efforts.
Cheers Y’all!
–Lance

I drop this in for levity.
Because, as is my wont, I always try to end a post with a bit of humor.
This clip is not at all germane, but actually…
If you explore my archives and read about my relationships with women, it kinda is…

I posted this on 26 January, but I don’t think ‘it took.’ So here it is again.
Yep. SPAM
Recycled
Will Write Some New, Original Shit Real Soon.
Promise.
(Hey! I still have that bridge for sale–20 percent off–Today Only.)
I am rather proud (There is that ‘Vanity’ Thang again—Rearing its ugly head) of me for the construction of this one. But It was sincere and it was ‘heartfelt.’
There is a plethora of Upbeat, Happy, and Positive Stolen Content. —Take a look.
My Good Friends, Yes, times are severely Fukked Right Now. We all know this, but, if we lose our optimism, positivity, and hope, and give in to Nattering Nabobs of Negativity, (CNN, I’m staring/glaring at YOU!)
Then We become Part of The Problem, and not The Solution.
Keep the Faith Friends. Stay Positive, Optimistic, and Joyous. Life is a Gift, no Matter The Current State of Fukked-Up we find The Times to be. Things will Get Better. They Always Do.
(I missed my ‘Calling!’ I should have been a preacher! Joke, By the Way,)

Credit to Spiro Agnew For The ‘Nattering Nabobs’ quote. I endeavor to always Give Credit Where Credit is due—Speaking of, I have maxed out two of my five credit cards. I may need to win the lottery soon—just to maintain my luxurious, glamorous lifestyle.
And here is The Genesis: (You really did not think Spiro had The Smarts to come up with this on his own, did you?)
“The term was used by William Safire in a speech written for United States Vice President Spiro Agnew in 1970, which received heavy media coverage. Agnew, increasingly identified with his attacks on critics of the Nixon administration, described these opponents as “nattering nabobs of negativism”.”

“Just a generic observation on Social Media in General and Writing in Particular:
And for Ref: During the Vietnam War, and leading up to his resignation, President Richard Nixon preceded many public comments with the line, “Let me make one thing perfectly clear.”
So, Humour me for a moment, if you will. Let me be perfectly clear before I get too drunk to write this.
I have often said that I mainly write for my own edification.
And This is Paralyzed Fact/Truth.
But what I never say/verbalize enough is how much I appreciate & Respect My Readers.
A writer needs readers to get him to work on the next writing project.
(Simple Yin and Yang—Tits for Tats—Validations)
Not to blow my own horn too much (In spite of my façade and massaged image, I am a humble, shy man)
But here is some bona-fide truth:
(I work really hard at not posting garbage. I respect anyone and everyone who takes the time to read my ‘work.’ I endeavor to post quality content—lots of variety—lots of shit I search out and steal from the Internet—Yet I always credit the Original Poster whenever possible.)
Back to my point: Because I know that our finite time is not a thing to be squandered.
I know I ain’t Shakespeare, but (and trust me on this) I do put a lot of time, thought, and effort into my attempt to enrich your lives, Gentle Readers.
