In a perfect world

"If you cannot be a poet, be the poem." -- David Carradine

In a perfect world …

• Everybody would fine true love.
• Husbands and wives would always agree on where to set the thermostat.
• Lewis Grizzard would still be around to make us laugh.
• We would sing “Amazing Grace” in church every Sunday. And somebody would always join.
• Children would do their homework without being told. And never complain about it.
• Everyone would have bumper stickers that read: “How’s My Driving?’’ There would be a toll-free phone number to call and report the idiots.
• We could walk around with smiles on our faces without people thinking we are up to something.
• We would have time to read every book we want to read.
• Low sodium and low fat would not be words in our vocabulary.
• Law enforcement officials would carry around one bullet – just like Barney Fife – and never have to use it.
• Companies would be required to have “live” people answering the telephone.
• Life would be a blog.
