Any day that ends with pie, and too much pie at that/is the kind of day that I consider can't fall flat/which is to say Thanksgiving as excuse to gormandize/is the kind of holiday to win a Nobel Prize!
WASHINGTON—U. S. government agencies from the military to law enforcement have been buying up mobile-phone data from the private sector to use in gathering intelligence, monitoring adversaries and apprehending criminals. WSJ.
The mobile phone's a wonder of our modern age, but hark/it gathers information like a hungry hungry shark/which then is sold to bidders, maybe government, or not/who then know all about us, from our bank book to our thought/This breeds strong paranoia in consumers not a few/who fear complete brainwashing with a perilous shampoo/Perhaps a tinfoil helmet is the only good defense/against this great conspiracy, whether real or just pretense!
I've got some homespun wisdom for the youngsters on the street/looking for their first good job by going suite to suite/Let the work just come to you in Zen-like fashion, dude/The karma of the universe cannot be spun or skewed/Your career is written by the hand of fate -- submit!/It is to pay your student loans till you're too old to spit!
Thorstein Veblen, Ph.D/studied our economy/with contempt and little fact/and with doubt was never wracked/Consumers were 'conspicuous'/which on Black Friday's ridiculous!
