Inside the Mind

Hee, hee, hee. . .

Ok, I admit the Bar-O-Meter, the official publication of the Wichita Bar Journal isn't exactly the funny papers, but lawyers can have a sense of humor, too. Check out the recent quote:
The President's Column
By Stephen Ariagno
I fear change, and I’m not talking about the kind of change we find in our pockets. Although I do feel compelled to start this off by saying that I’m a little creeped out by the new nickel. For decades Thomas Jefferson’s presence on the nickel has kept a respectful and professional distance in keeping with the manner in which he held his high office. His profile was strong and centered. On the new nickel, it appears as though Jefferson has rushed up on his photographer just before his picture has been taken. He is so close now I can almost feel his breath on my neck. Upon seeing a nickel, I now have an irresistible desire to move just a little bit further down on a couch. Suffice it to say that Jefferson’s portrait on the nickel invades my personal space. Whereas before, Jefferson was the kind of guy you would watch from a distance in a parade, he is now the kind of guy who would stand right next to you in an empty elevator. Creepy.

If you want to read the rest of this very funny article, you can find it here.

I'm hoping to have time this weekend to add a few things to my lovely blog, but that still doesn't mean I'll necessarily write more often. . . here's to a happy Friday!
