-Caveat Lector-
I'll have to extend my metaphor into a 'fleet', where the flagship pretty
much leads and the rest of the ships, boats, watercraft in this political
regatta just follow along ... in this sense, no, we're not all on the same
vessel, but theoretically heading toward the same port of call ... once the
tempest hits, it's pretty much each vessel that must find it's own way to
calmer waters ... the 'someone' is indefinite; when it's a matter of sail
or sink, sailorliness can be found in the most unlikely of persons. This
would apply to Y2K survivalists, e.g. As a matter of fact, where are
Abbott & Costello ("What's on first ...") ?
What's struck me in the last week is the sheer power the president has at
the same time when the House of Congress is preparing the political yardarm
or plank, led by a fellow who has an outstanding warrant for a similar but
perhaps lesser offense, who's fought to replace another fellow about to go
on walkabout. Then there's Lott ... listened to him today; didn't
understand a word he said ...
It's as though the sea anchor has been let out and everyone's just gonna
ride out the storm, checking the knots and wind direction every so often
.. I agree with Billio: it's like a fiction with a random plot ...
There was a movie some years back in which the main portion of the cast
would travel through time just to witness disasters -- as if on a tour.
Can't remember the name. It's like that: just hanging around to see what
the next plot twist will be, which disaster is next on the intinerary.
