Have you ever noticed how easy it is to be wicked? And how difficult it is to be moral and righteous? And you’ve probably felt anything BUT overflowing joy when it comes to current events. Right? Yeah, it’s just so darn easy to be mad. But it’s so darn difficult to be joyful when practically the whole world has gone to the dark side. … The rest of the story…
I just saw a headline that mentioned how a Cape Cod lobster diver was swallowed by a whale. And then he was “spit back out.” Now, that’s obviously a fish tale. Right? Because that kind of things doesn’t happen. Period. So, that’s why I watched a couple of videos, about the story, online. And the diver certainly looks sincere.

I had my eyes examined (no, not my head) a couple of weeks ago. And this week I got my new glasses. Plus, this is my 2020th post here on TonyFunderburk.com.
