What Pandemic

What 'pandemic?'
  I never called it that
As for 'climate change'
  Something for God to work at

Don't believe there's any 'polarization'
  Isn't the world getting hotter?
As for 'skyrocketing inflation'
  More bothersome politicization...

By now you may have guessed 
  My name is Alfred E. Newman
    ~ What me worry? my jest

"What, me Worry!" Love it. Brought back fond memories. Blessings my friend.

Magic, how you take heavy issues and add a wallop of humor, Gershon! I loved Alfred E Newman! Hugs, Panagiota xxx

Well, the wand worked wonders with this one, I guess. Good old Alfred E. Newman used to leave me in stitches -- and that's just from seeing the covers of those old MAD Mags! ~ Nostalgic Nutcase

I'm with you, gw. Why worry over anything you can't change? At my age I'm not going to be around if this generation ruins everything. They'll have to deal with it. Not me!

Sounds like you and Alfred E. are teaming up for a run at -- to -- destiny!
