Trump(et) Tower
Greetings and salutations from the sand, sun and surf of Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard and the sunny, windy, blue skied, spring like island of Nantucket! Great to be with you and yours on this glorious Sunday afternoon, the Twenty-Eighth Day of February, 2016. Truly a day made for the Annual Hyannis Marathon being run as these words are being created upon your electronic receiver. Sure, it’s not the Boston Marathon, but it’s sure screaming spring today, by gosh, by golly, followed by them, those lazy, hazy days of summer to come… So pack a backpack, kiss your job goodbye and head on out to the island of Nantucket! One does not need money on that island right? “Bueller? Anyone? Bueller…?” (credit the classic 1986 film, “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off”, starring Mathew Broderick, Mia Sara, Alan Ruck and many other fine actors who no longer work, or create gems like this one, because Hollywood has turned into an abomination..).
In running a marathon, the body, mind and soul are tested to their limits. Therein lies the rub. Breaking through the ‘wall’ so as to reach illumination is the goal; many finding the task too long/arduous to attempt, let alone conquer or achieve. Sheer will is tough to beat, for it is always the works of one or two men (or women!), that change the course of human history. Watching the runners whiz by on Ocean a few moments ago, with the wind at their collective back, thoughts of the political marathon going on in America today remind me that training, perseverance, guts, attitude, luck, skill, talent and strength of character are all part of the ‘winning’ equation…, or are they?
“They do love me in Nebraska, that I can tell you! And that Rubio character over here, hey ohhh! Holy crap! What a clown ‘dis guy! ‘Dis guy… (Donald’s head shaking sadly side to side with that hilarious New York look of complete disgust, down play and dismay), with the make up and everything, enough already with make up with a trof, just caking it on like Martha Stewart, did I say that? I’m sorry Martha, you never wear makeup, you are a natural beauty, unlike our new pal Marco, who should just answer Polo when a reporter asks him a question. And the constant habit of nervously drinking the bottled water? What are you a camel? Oh, and before I forget, don’t forget to tip your waitresses folks, I’m serious, they work for less than $2 an hour, so tip ‘em! Capiche? Yeah, back to ‘dat light weight Marco Rubio, he’s a cupcake and quite frankly he scares me. Nothin’ for nothin’ but I’m not even sure if he’s really Hispanic, I say blood tests on Monday, who’s with me? OK, we’re all going back to may place, this is ridiculous! Oh, and one more ‘thing, he’s gonna lose his home state of Florida, because after all, they love me there too! I mean come on! Really? What’s not to love? I ask you this in the most highest form of sincerity??”
