An Ode to Road (Construction)

 Clif Walter Martin inspired a song in me to the tune of the Kingston Trio song about the MTA: (Metropolitan Transit Authority) with credit to them.

"All I wanted to do was to go to Meijer,
to pick up some groceries,🛒
But all I could do was get lost in the detours,🚧
Crying what will become of me?

Chorus: But will I ever return? No, I'll never return,
and my fate is still unlearned,
I will ride forever through the streets of Muskegon,🚗
I'm a gal, who'll never return.

Well, all I did was to take the wrong U-Turn..
And now, it's a quarter past 3. ⌚️
I'll never afford to see my brother in Stoton,
nor my cousin in Eau Clairee.

Chorus: But will I ever return? No, I'll never return,
and my fate is still unlearned,
I will ride forever through the streets of Muskegon,🚗
I'm a gal, who'll never return.

All night long, I've been following detours,🚧
Neither store nor home, I see.
The only way out of this construction,👷‍♂️
is to head for Michigan City.

New chorus.
But will I ever return?
No, I'll never return,
and my fate is still unlearned,
I will drive forever,👻
Through Michigan City,
through Chicago, and never return!"

(This is what little old ladies👵 at grocery stores are really doing when they seem deep in thought.)

Temper, Temper

 I confess I had an altercation with somebody I didn't even know recently. So, I tried to consult with one of my psychology books, a chapter on anger, trying to clear my head about it. I believe that from time to time, you can find it beneficial to analyze your erroneous thoughts. After I got done with the chapter, I could see things a little more clearly.

 But then, I thought of that loose cannon down in Maralago and wondered if he EVER did any self examination, particularly about anger. Perhaps his niece, Mary, might be able to answer this, but it might be pretty simple, like, no.
