A note to our 'Dear Leader'

A Christmas Note



My mother must have been very fond of bees and honey as expressed in the frequent exhortation that one will generally get more by applying honey to the equation. Having expressed open hostility toward the joke in the White House, I have determined to lighten up and send a Christmas note that will no doubt be chosen to festoon his favorite prayer rug room.

Dear Leader, Your ascendancy reminds me of the little boy who regularly coveted becoming the president of Macy’s. He joined the firm and eventually made it to the position of stock clerk. He was an ardent publicist for the theme that every boy and girl should have a toy train and doll of their choice. Then one day the inexplicable occurred. He found himself sitting in the very chair of and possessing the title of Macy’s president. Screams of delight rose from the endless line of children clambering for ‘trains and dolls’. ‘There really is a Santa!’ Overwhelmed by the demands of both his office and those of the children, he immediately assembled all the ‘knowing’ senior members of the company staff to clue him in on what stock was available? The ‘knowing’ knew several things. They knew that they had to somehow cover the fact and appearance that the new president was really only a stock clerk. Grasping the public relations significance that the new president must look as though he actually was the new president, mens' clothing czars raced to the third floor tailor’s workshop demanding some spiffy designs. The ‘knowing’ also knew that when the earlier screams of delight morphed into mutterings of disappointment none of their jobs would be spared. The PR people again sprang to action creating a blizzard of ‘snow’ hoping that if of sufficient magnitude and duration the line of little beggars would eventually tire of holding out their hands and disperse. And so it came to pass that the snow screen abated, Macy’s went into Chapter 7, and all the ‘knowing’ were exposed as sophist fools. And the new Macy’s president managed to scrape up a few dollars form the sale of some fairy tale books found in ‘childrens' toys’ to buy and retire to a peanut farm of the recently deceased former owner’s estate, Jimmy someone, where he lived to a very old age knowing that he was all along just a stock clerk. Merry Christmas or whatever you prefer, Your friend, etc. No kidding. I really did my utmost to honor the tradition of the honey bees!
