Journal of Mr Jefferson, a Gentleman Adrift in Time
Posted on the 19 August 2013 by Hughvw
Gentle Reader, I have made a major breakthrough in understanding this curious future America. A staff member at Monticello left their "computer" on over the weekend so I was able to discover a great deal more than by simply watching "TV." As a former president myself, I was able to visit the White House "website" and peruse the current president's schedule. Upon my word, what a lazy fellow! The first appointment for Monday is at 11 am. I used to begin work upon arising from my bed at dawn. By an ingenious arrangement, my bed straddled both my study and my bedchamber so I could choose on which side to begin my day. Now, after breakfast, and a so-called "presidential briefing," the current president appears to have no other appointment than a meeting with independent financial advisers, whatever they might be. Citizens are not getting much value from this fellow.
