Cleaning House, Fan-dumb rules...

Part 1: from the Rules Committee (the ones who have been meeting, outside our awareness, in the so-called "'off season", in a secret location, so as to avoid any "undo controversy") 

Rules in Revue: may as well review the few remaining rules and those that may have been changed up, since you last started, then got distracted from following through on this perennial favorite past-time...when you lost your so-called "firm resolve" to either firm up (see "mere images" from 12/28, if you need to get re-motivated)...or clean-up, around this place..."before you bring, track in any new 💩, can you at least wipe your feet...?" Covers a lot of ground already, on behalf of those already inhabiting, and those who might, on occasions of obligation, come into our homes from places far and wide (from, as in reverse order, "from over the river, through the woods, across the tracks....") 

First rule: When it comes to cleaning in and around our homes...whether you start in the basement, garage, or closet...anyplace where the "stuff" of Goerge Carlin's skit might be stuffed..."If you haven't used it for..." Yeah, it's all about time and place, both of which we find it rather short supply as the year...winds...down...This, in sharp contrast to "out there, on the gridiron..." where things are just getting started, as in bowl games and such, leading up to what, at least in the American version, is frequently titled "The Granddaddy" of them all...which has become a subject not only of great debate, as to "who's the best"...who got here with the assistance of some so-called 'homie' refs...but also has become "Super" commercialized -- about the latter there's little debate but those who come up with the HUGE amounts of dollars, forget the sense, to "sponsor" as in what's being compressed into even smaller space (picture within picture within...) Which, if it's done right, as in  "after further review...upon closer inspection..." Getting the parallel play here, for those "sports fans!" in and around the house...leads to, after such commercials featuring "well played my friend" (State Farm, and others who are..."always here to lend a hand, as in clean-up a mess...even on behalf of "Farmers") -- only stipulation, is that you pay your "premium" (see the connections...anything new around here...?) But back at home, after a thorough cleaning,..

Before: "Throw the bums out...the whole lot of them...got no use for them anymore...#%@* !!!" Which was well, after we had welcomed them into our house with open arms, represented by an open-ended contract and almost open pocketbook from the owners of this fan-chise...Whereas, if the fan base is eroded due to these "perennial losers...stinking up this place..." get them shipped out...

"This house is...clean!" Which, after the short medium said this, went large, led us, the viewing audience, even in anticipation ("Poltergeist") and the local sports fans around my home town, as in a comeback regarding yet another quotation, from another new head of household, not knowing the home turf (if you haven't watched the first Poltergeist, 1982, you'll not get the 'underlying meaning here') or watched just the trailer of the second, "They're back!" you won't fully appreciate what us local loyalists have endured, for way more than the time and space the movies tried to convey. For we, whether it's time to clean house or "get your house in order!" -- the ones that actually do the heavy lifting (as in emptying our drawers, our wallets), lead us to the in-exorable conclusion, how we meet and greet the new "head honcho!" the owner has sought out, lured into our home-town...

"Easier said than dumb"

Un-ruley: rule#2 is "the following"...next, after some sponsor-shippers..."we'll be right back..." (talk about false advertising!)
