Happy Countdown Day, Everybody
Yesterday in The Blower’s Special “No Account Counter” E-dition, everybody was coming up with suggestions of what to count next on the Whistleblower Newswire Trademark Counter at the lower right hand corner of the Web Page. It’s on there now, counting down till the anniversary of the first time CFK first started counting down.
Then Achmed the Archivist found an item from last year in the tickler file for today, where Political Insiders were asking Beloved Whistleblower Publisher Charles Foster Kane why the Whistleblower’s Annual Countdown Day would be celebrated at precisely 3:23 PM today.
“Because that’s the first time I began counting something down,” Kane started to explain. “There I was in Fort Thomas, Kentucky. It was exactly 3:23 PM on the afternoon of January 23, 1961. I was standing with my right hand raised, along with a bunch of other really stupid guys, being sworn in as an enlisted man in the U.S Army. And while I was taking the oath to obey the orders of some other totally incompetent idiots during the next three years, I suddenly understood how stupid I had been to enlist for three years, instead of serving for two years under the draft. That Patriotic Countdown began at 1,065 days. It was a lot more than the 362 days, 22 hours, 6 minutes, and 22 seconds currently remaining in the Divided States of America during the Dark Ages of Obama’s Second Term, unless he’s impeached. But who’s counting!
How’s that for a freaking coincidence?
