ONE MORE TIME!

(Perry Como voice-over)

“Oh, there’s no place like home for the holidays,
For the holidays there’s no place like sweet home!

Now and then I put on the TV to hear the news and weather or an opinion from a talking head. Not being a TV fan I do watch it on occasions, not that I’m a snob but that there is so little worth watching. There is FOX News and MSNBC, but they both have their drawbacks and inconsistencies. I get turned off every time Al Sharpton (Tiana Brawley) shows up or (Combat Zone) Brian Williams as insincere as possibly anyone could be. Shaun Hannity and Tucker Carlson are both shrills without content but the constant babble of their bias support is not much to see or listen to.

But through the discourse of the House Impeachment hearings, I have a new TV enemy to hate until perhaps January 2, 2020. Hopefully, by that time the Post Office will finally end their insidious commercials that go:

“Oh, there’s no place like home for the holidays,
For the holidays there’s no place like sweet home!

Three and four times an hour this little ditty comes on, unexpectedly and above all, annoyingly.

Want to keep the cost of the postage stamp down?
STOP THE DAMNED COMMERCIALS!

“Oh, there’s no place like home for the holidays,
For the holidays there’s no place like sweet home!

SEE THAT? THEY JUST SLIPPED IN ANOTHER!

I sit in my easy chair, reclined to a 45 degree level for the intake of snacks and drinks or meals, when suddenly-
“Oh, there’s no place like home for the holidays,
For the holidays there’s no place like sweet home!

Watching postal people who I think are actors complete their appointed rounds in fantasy situations, does not convince me of “Home sweet home.”

If God wanted me to hear Perry Como every five minutes he would at least give me a choice of one of his songs.

“Oh, there’s no place like home for the holidays,
For the holidays there’s no place like sweet home!

It’s impossible, oh how impossible!
