There’s Craziness In The Air/ Sarah Palin/ President Clinton
Hey! The world is getting crazier and crazier! Don’t you feel it in the air? Don’t you sense it every time you turn on the tube? Much of it, of course, has to do with economics. When gas prices went up they took with them a lot of comfortable routines.
“This is what we like to do on Friday night”. Forget it!
“I really enjoy my trip to Starbucks every morning”. But now I’m going to Burger King! Yuk!
“My nest egg was in my house”. Gone!
“My retirement fund was with Lehman Brothers”. Where is it now?
I just feel a certain restlessness in the air. And then I saw something on television about a gathering of the rich, famous and powerful in New York City this weekend. Sarah Palin the naughty librarian is going to be there with her family. The French President is going to be there with his attractive wife.
Former President Clinton was on Letterman. So he’s in New York too. And he had some nice things to say about Ms Palin! I bet he would like to share them with her in person. But he said not a word about his party’s candidate for president! Chris Rock was next up and sat in a chair still warm from contact with presidential power. And he happily criticized Clinton.
New York City!! A nice place to take photos in the coming days! I had to laugh when I read that the media guys were not going to cover Palin because she is trying to control them in Alaska. That is such a joke. If it moves and makes news they will cover it.
I just wish I was there. Maybe I will get on the train tomorrow in downtown Richmond and head on up the track. But I can’t sleep outdoors and hotel rooms are going to be hard to find. I wish my sister still lived there. Darn! Anybody from NYC want to put me up? It could help you fill up your tank for a month or so!
Changing the subject. Here are my first attempts to photograph lightening. Not so great right? It would be really cool to get a photo looking straight up into the cloud!
Or maybe not.
I’m feeling the craziness too.

Since I’m not going to make it up to NYC here’s a photographer who is already there and taking some cool photos of the place. I discovered him today thru Entrecard.
