SOMETHING ABOUT WILEY COYOTE THAT LOOKS VAGUELY FAMILIAR TO FANS OF THOSE OLD ROAD RUNNER CARTOONS. REMEMBER HOW HE WAS ALWAYS RUNNING OFF THOSE CLIFFS IN PURSUIT OF THE "ROAD RUNNER". GOING DOWN HAS A DEFINATE MEANING BACK THEN. AND THEN WE HAD THE "ROCKY" FILMS WHERE "GOING DOWN" TOOK ON YET ANOTHER MEANING. BUT TODAYS "HOOK-UP" GENERATION HAVE GIVEN "GOING DOWN" AN ENTIRELY NEW MEANING. NOW ALONG COMES BARACK OBAMA WHO IS UNWILLINGLY GIVING THOSE WELL KNOW TWO WORDS, YET ANOTHER DEFINATION. ONE THAT REMINDS ME OF THE EARLY ELEVATOR DAYS WHEN EACH HAD IT'S OWN ATTENDENT WHERE THEY WOULD SAY EITHER GOING UP OR GOING DOWN AS YOU ENTERED. ISN'T IT STRANGE THAT THE SAME TWO LITTLE WORDS TAKE ON DIFFERENT MEANINGS AS THE GENERATIONS CHANGE. ONE THING FOR SURE, BARACK OBAMA IS GOING DOWN, BUT SOMEHOW I SUSPECT HE HAS BEEN BEFORE, WHERE THE SUN DON'T SHINE---GET MY DRIFT! THANKS TO THE LOOKING SPOON FOR THIS IMAGE.

And he can't blame any of this on Bush either. Way too late for that.
Have a fabulous day. ☺
