Can We Talk About Anything Else?
So tired of the endless arguing and one dose of bad news after another.
“I wish they’d pass a law that says he can’t tweet on Saturday or Sunday,” said a working slob at one of the job sites. “We gotta’ get aggravated by something new every damn day? Can’t we get one day a week off? He tweets five straight hateful things and then goes golfing.”
I laughed.
“Yeah, Let’s talk about something else,” I said.
“Not baseball!” He said. “You’re a Yankees fan and I’m an Orioles fan. That’s not lining up as good news either.”
“How about the weather?” I tried.
“It was 70 on Tuesday and 30 today. I’m not thrilled with that either.”
He was wearing a Roger Waters concert shirt. I’m a Waters fan, but missed the show.
“How was it?” I asked.
“Awesome. Man, he hates Trump.”
“No!” I said. “We’re talking about something else!”
“Right! You seeing any shows?” He asked.
“Bruce!” I called out.
“What’s new?” He said, with a laugh.
“He’s on Broadway. I’m going next weekend. Got lucky. Should be a great show.”
“You know who he’s going to bash, don’t you?” My buddy asked.
“Nope,” I said. “I have no idea who you’re talking about.”
He laughed.
“That was a great talk,” he said.
“Yeah. I feel better already.”
I like the no tweet rule.
You think we could get just one day off?
Probably not.
