Crocus update: blooming is currently prorogued

Millions of emailers have written and asked…. OK let me start again in a less Obama-esque, honest sort of way, with my chin far lower.  Nobody, not a single person, has emailed to ask how the crocus sprout, first highlighted last week right here at PTBC in a photograph taken by me outside the vast PTBC world headquarters compound, is doing today. 

See, I had predicted in my blog entry that it would bloom by Sunday at 1:00 PM.  Nobody commented in that blog entry to offer-up their own predictions, exposing an embarrassing display of laissez-faire among my crocus-hating anti-crocus and clearly crocuphobic readership. 

Like Obama and his predictions that unemployment would not top 8% if Congress passed his trillion-dollar “stimulus” (wink!) package, I was very wrong (His unemployment is now closer to 11% and as much as 17% if all things are factored-in).  Even now, neither employment nor my crocus is really very close to blooming.  However, I maintain that if readers comment more often, the crocus will bloom, as if by magic. You know, like Obama-magic.

prorogued crocus

No liberals are protesting the crocus prorogation thing, but it would be time better and more meaningfully spent.  Plus it represents hope and change and crap like that.
