The times...they just keep on changing -- DUH! (no fooling!)  

Get with it! Yeah, right? How exactly is one expected to "understand and change to fit with what is now happening and accepted in the culture..." when it's tough enough these daze we find ourselves in...no matter what zip code, time zone you are at this very moment (many of which have already expired since you began reading this post😟)..to simply keep track of what exactly what time it is. Even in this age of so-called smart watches, is it now...to be precise, is it "...25 or 6 to 4...?" And even if you card to look, glance at your watch at such a "witching hour" -- "does anyone...really care?" As in "Chicago" time, borrowing lyrics from two different albums, the words and ideas conveyed just as relevant today as they were in the late 60's to early 70's...

Sooner and Later: As in no sooner had I came up with an answer to the question of how, what I would do with the extra day tacked on to February, that I was told to leap forward, to lose an hour of sleep, in order to gain an hour of sunlight. Only to be followed, with only five days to prep this year, for one we are, at least according to William Shakespeare and others who mark this day, to be a bit leery as in "Beware the ides of March" -- not only if your name is Julius Caesar, and even when you think you are among friends and others whose votes you thought you could count on..."don't worry, we've got your back..."

Feel like a fool? Then you're among good company, at least on this particular day, set aside for such a purpose. But yet another day to keep an eye out, stay vigilant. The sum total of which, as in collectively, can be...

So...taxing, Ide say: Co-incidence you say? I say conspiracy. I mean what are the chances that a day, at least in the time zones covering the U.S.A. from east (EDT) to west (HAST)...allowing the latter to get their so-called "returns" as in "Render under Caesar" which can also be interpreted loosely, as "give the man his due" -- that this day would land smack dab, once again in the middle of the month, almost exactly (depending on how you "post marked") a month after he got what he...didn't see coming. Whereas for me...

"I'm nobody's fool" Well, perhaps for just one hour on this one day per every (fourth?) year. Other -wise, there's just...

No time...like the present. Now, back to the future, and another "time stamped" post.

  "King David, where art Thou?" Here and Now: When I need and you most...for a quote, a tip, let alone a quip... Clever crafted commentary: At his best, in his field, "In my humble opinion..."  "Coming to you tonight..." Each and every night, assuming we welcomed him with his partner, known in our home, as simply "Chet" when we referred to him on his own, but more formally when paired with "David" as the "Huntley-Brinkley" reporting team... Distinctly Brinkley: who got called on whenever things around here, US, were on the brink... "Sow, David..." It's how I heard it, and still remember it, as he was asked to comment, well into the eve of what was casted to be his final telecast of this type, on the eve of a second coming...of the Clintons, their return to the White House...a second (merry) go round... "For the love of Mike!" While he was not shy of the microphone, having gotten used to one on his desk ...
