The Party’s Over

Yes, the party is indeed over and it ended “not with a bang but a whimper.” To cite a bit from T. S. Eliot’s poem, The Hollow Men.

Yes, I watched the impeachment trial.  At least some of it.  People got very long-winded and repetitive and my attention span waned.

Yes, the I kept the television on but the proceedings were little more than background noise.  Barely a hum. 

And yes, like many others, I made up my mind about the whole thing long before the last question had been posed and the last speech had been made.

And this what I concluded:

Lots of lawyers made lots of money.

And I think that’s really all we know for sure.
