Day sixtyfour....

The American Dream

February 2nd. The 2nd day of February. February is now 2 days old. Only 26days until March. The 33rd day of 2010. Groundhog day. Nothing smells more like a central American apple pie on a windowsill than Groundhog day.

It is a sign of spring. If the groundhog emerges from his burrow and doesn't retreat back inside then low and behold spring will have sprung. However if he retreats away from the harsh winter ways then we will have to wait another 6weeks until we can start our spring cleaning. But can we truly leave the changing of seasons to this?

But believe it or not these creatures are now key into teaching people about diabetes and obesity.

But I think this guy has said "To hell with you blood sugar levels" and thrown away the worries of his life and turned to the can.

Easy cheese. Because slicing a block eats into precious time. There are stocks to buy, the true America to find, presidents to emboss onto cheese.

Is there such a thing now as the American dream. Throughout the 70s Hunter S. Thompson was in search of the death of the American dream, but to me Of Mice and Men sums up the ever illusive dream. Lenny's words so simple but frustratingly not so.
