I don't like how a lot of people complain about the economy. I personally think there's a lot more that we could all focus our negative energy on. Like, for instance, the fact that all shoes don't have velcro straps. I don't know about everyone else, but baby Keith rocked velcro shoes better, and more often than other people. When friends would come knock for my brothers and I, there was no "Wait as I tie my shoes." for this guy. Nope. Right out the door. I switched when I found the choice in shoes was much more abundant in the laced variety. And also, because, as my Father put it, "You're a grown man. Stop wearing velcro strapped shoes." Whatever Dad. I'll rock my Adidas' for now, but can't nobody hold me down.
It's people like my Dad who worry about dumb things like the economy and recession and analog to digital TV conversion kits and run-on sentences. Doesn't anybody worry about the small things? Like, we're entering the second decade of the new millenium and people still can't travel by tube. Baby Keith used to stay up late, looking outside of his bedroom window and thinking "Boy oh boy. Can't wait until 2009 when I can take a tube to Mom-mom's house instead of hitchiking there every weekend with my family." Well it's 2009 now, and I still look out the same exact window as a 23 year old man and hate the world (partly because I sleep in the same room I did when I was 7). My friend has a hamster who has two cages connected via tubes. Jealous. If hamsters ruled the world, things would be different. Much different.
I just wish people would open their eyes to the real problems that are tearing our country apart. Like velcro shoes, and lack of tube-travel.
