Ray's Thought for the Day - Dying at Work
Dying at work is always a possibility. Some do, most don't.
Generally speaking, dying at work is the result of an industrial accident in a fairly high risk job situation. Usually, those kinds of deaths are not considered especially funny. Although, if they occur regularly enough in some foreign country, like say in Chinese coal mines, then they may tickle a few ribs, in these parts, but probably not in Chinese parts.
Here, in these parts, dying at work is especially funny when an old guy, long in servitude at a sedentary job, like dies in his cubicle, or passes on, behind his desk. Then of course, the funny part is how long it takes everyone to figure out he is dead and what they eventually do with the corpse. Ha!
That's the point Walker, Republic of Tejas, Ranger was making on the TV this morning about Senator McCain, lifelong imperialist. Senator McCain is old and liable to die at the office. Fact is, he could die before he gets to the office. The excitement of the upcoming general may kill him, but he may not even get that far. He could die from excitement before he even gets to the upcoming general.
So I am with Walker, Republic of Tejas, Ranger, when it comes to Senator McCain, lifelong imperialist. Senator McCain needs to spend some of what little time he has left, picking a young, vigorous, virile, running mate that can stand in for him when he drops dead, possibly on the campaign trail.
Who might such a young, vigourous, virile younger man be, that Senator McCain might pick? I know, he should pick his buddy, Senator Graham Cracker.
