....and as a FINAL thought --------
If lawyers are disbarred and clergymen defrocked, doesn't it follow that
electricians can be delighted, musicians denoted, cowboys deranged, models
deposed and dry cleaners depressed? Laundry workers could decrease, eventually
becoming depressed and depleted, bed makers will be debunked, baseball players
will be debased, landscapers will be deflowered, bulldozer operators will be
degraded, organ donors will be delivered, software engineers will be detested,
the BVD company will be debriefed, and even musical composers will eventually
decompose. On a more positive note though, perhaps we can hope
politicians will be devoted.
