Only if I tell my better half Wednesday morning “Honey, I’m thinking about becoming a pro-choice Democrat.”
So since I’m figuratively in a creative mood, let me bring up Wednesday, literally speaking of course (do I have this backwards?). So I was at my favorite Deccatur fast food restaurant tonight and made the following order: Two Chick fil A sandwiches, a char-broiled chicken club, one large and medium fries, and a southwest salad with spicy dressing to go. The total? $19.84 (although someone may have screwed the order up and the exact total may be different). Anyway I asked the server if he knew the significance of the amount. He seemed confused and asked if my question had something to do with Chick-fil-A. “No”, I said. “It’s the title of a famous book. You know, one you read in high school.” Still looking confused, I told him that one of his supervisors would know. He smiled and agreed with my assessment of the managers and then, I drove home hoping he would remember to ask.
So what does this have to do with tomorrow? I wonder how many kids today are like totally clueless about such 1960 literary markers as, “Oh wow man, the total is 1984! Like aren’t you glad we re-elected Obama instead of that Nazi George Bush?”
Looking forward as always to “Its literally Wednesday…”

Maybe we should all take up J_T’s offer to meet at Trackside soon. He still owes me a beer. This weekend would be fun but, alas, I am out of town.
