Rise and shine. Tis a New Year! Homework on the blackboard, apples on my desk.
That word CANNOT be a real word! It sounds too Obama-esque!
Jobation is a derivative of the verb “jobe”, which comes from the biblical Job, wherein his “friends” harangue and harass him about his present plight.
Conservatives want to help blacks get jobs; Democrats want to give white folks a jobation.
I’m back to my jobation today. These one-day work weeks are tough!
It is 38 and drizzling, but it is supposed to get up to a balmy 45-but with rain. I went to a customer’s house to make sure the plastic was still covering the forms for the patio we’re building after it gets drier and warmer.
Every speech that Obama makes
Is still one more jobation-
But we haven’t heard as many
Because he’s been on vacation
It’s been nice not to cringe
When he goes for a day or two
Without saying how great he is
And telling everyone what to do
Even the chef said to shove it,
That’s what all the tabloids say
I’ll bet it was a kind of hell
To cook for Michelle each day...
