It’s slow and go on the eastbound 78 police activity on the shoulder east of Sycamore and lookie-loos making conditions worse than usual. Police activity on the shoulder maybe an accident or drunk driver making things worse than usual for drivers struggling to survive. Maybe an injury accident or drunk driver with a rap sheet and suspended license - struggling with two jobs and children needing a parent at home. A rap sheet and suspended license and pretty soon you lose one job and children needing a parent at home have a home no longer. Soon you lose one job to a robot named Joseph for the Patron Saint of workers who have a home no longer, and those who die in the arms of Jesus. | Named patron saint of workers in 1955, Joseph now a soldier in another war because he died in the arms of Jesus, May 1st is now the “Feast of St. Joseph the Worker”. Joseph now a soldier in the cold war, used to lure faithful workers from May Day, the communist feast of workers since 1904 - a feast that threatened to eat the rich. To pull faithful workers from May Day, Pope Pius XII doubled-down with patrons to derail the feast that threatened to eat the rich and put the workers in the driver’s seat. Pope Pius doubled-down with rich patrons, now drivers drink between jobs they hate, police activity on the shoulder threatens making everything worse than usual. Dick Eiden March, 2019 |
