A Banana September

No! Tell me I am wrong. It can’t be mid October already. What happened to September?  Was it cancelled this year?

There is something happening to the time/space continuum as I grow older. Or is it the space/time continuum? Experts diverge on that idiom. Any who… I seem to be moving faster into the future than I intended.

Unfortunately there is a flaw in my time machine because as I travel, my mind and body age at the rate of travel. That might be OK if I could get the dang machine into reverse gear. I must have an early prototype as this one I am using doesn’t even have a reverse. No brake pedal either!

I think I have it figured out. At my age life is like the Hairy Chapin ballad, “Thirty Thousand Pounds of Bananas” which is about driving a banana truck down the hill into Scranton Pennsylvania – all downhill with no brakes.

Well, I have decided just to hang on and enjoy the ride. For now, the journey is more important to me than the destination and “Boy!” what a ride…
