Addle Brained

An old Republican friend called me addle brained.  The poor fellow does not consider Kadizzle his friend, but Kadizzle never gives up on people just because they have succumbed to mental illness, drunkenness, or a variety of conditions they cannot control.  Kadizzle cannot get the thought out of the empty space between his ears.  Here is an adult male in his seventies who did everything in his power to bring about George Bush, and now Trump, and this man has the audacity to call his Lordship Kadizzle addle brained. Now, don't get old Kadizzle wrong.  Kadizzle has done many, many, stupid things, and has engaged in his favorite sport Dare to be Stupid on far too many occasions.  But when the dust settles how do you decide who is addle brained and who is not. Several criteria might be used. Are you living under a bridge?  Are you happy living under a bridge.

All of this leads Kadizzle to recall an incident when he took a temporary job as the safety director on a concrete construction site.  One of the carpenters who built concrete forms on the job was lacking in social skill, and just plain good sense. To top it off the man refused to obey some of the basic safety requirements. One day old Kadizzle was wandering about the construction site looking for potential hazards.  Kadizzle happened to walk by a deep hole full of mud.  Down in the hole was his arch nemesis the carpenter who disliked Kadizzle.  The carpenter yelled up at Kadizzle " Your a fucking idiot".  Kadizzle paused and replied to the carpenter " Lets figure this out".  " You Mr. Carpenter, are down in a hole up to your ass in mud.  I am up here clean dry and doing nothing.  I am up here being paid $40 per hour, you are down there in misery being paid $25 an hour.  Now who is the fucking idiot?"

Back to the fellow who called Kadizzle addle brained.  That poor fellow is in a hole.  The man is in his late seventies and the hole he is in is his basement. The man in his seventies has to run his business out of his basement because he failed to save, he failed to stay sober, and he failed to plan for his life.  Now, he is living under the administration of the worst president in history which he worked his entire life to elect and the basement dweller calls me addle brained.
