Magnolias and the Blues

The magnolia blossom is the epitome of feminine sweetness and beauty
Chinese Proverb

It's been a hell of week folks. The good, the bad and the ugly. The Democratic presidential nominee made history, his opponent who might have done better as a steel magnolia went down. And I cannot get excited because I wasn't and am not thrilled with either of them. But I will support Obama as he is the best hope we have to shine some light at the end of the dark tunnel we seem to be in. Gas went above $4.00 a gallon, more friends lost jobs this week and so it goes. Everyone is blaming everyone else and we are mired in apathy as a country. What can I say, I can't be sweet feminine and gentle about how we are responding to all of this, I want to kick some apathetic butt and take action.

I believe it's going to get better, we just need to dig in, take care of each other and look for the silver lining in all of this.

Santo Pecora, "Magnolia Blues":
