Writing Boots

You can talk all day about growing economic inequality in the United States, or you can say, as one C-SPAN viewer said the other day, "I see lots more mansions and lots more trailer parks."

You can say a guy is vapid, or you can say, as my old man liked to, "An empty cab pulled up, and Wolf Blitzer got out."

And you can talk about how fast summer is going by, or you can say, as I heard myself do the other day, "In my shorts pocket this morning, I found little packages of ketchup and mustard, and didn't recall where they came from."
