What does it mean when Mr. Evil takes a vacation?
Does it mean that he departs from his evil ways and starts supporting illegal immigration? Does it mean he temporarily supports AOC’s Green New Deal and sends money to save the polar bears; or that he comes to a profound understanding of Medicare for All that he was blinded to previously because of his evil ways? Does it mean that Mr. Evil comes to his senses for a while each year and worships liberals like Crazy Bernie, Pocahontas, and Spartacus; and supports a seventy percent tax rate, free college, and a ban on speech that might offend anyone?
If you’re a liberal, you’re probably saying, “If Mr. Evil can come to his senses, there’s hope that the world won’t end in 12 years!”
Dear Progressive, sorry to dash your hopes against the rocks. All it means is that I bought a plane ticket, and that I’m going to spend a month on a pristine beach while ordering margaritas, jumbo shrimp, and bacon-wrapped gooey, cheesy things. It means I’ll be reading books by Thomas Sowell, Jordan Peterson, and Daniel Boorstin, while not watching fake news for an entire month. What more could a human being want?
If you’re a liberal, you’re probably giddy after reading this: “Mr. Evil isn’t going to be spreading his evil lies for an entire month!”
True. I won’t be writing anything new on this blog for the next four or five weeks.
However, most of my readers are new to the blog. Most of you haven’t read the posts I wrote in the early days of the blog only a few months ago. So, I’ll be posting classic blog posts from earlier in the year. New posts will continue when I’m back in in August.
Dear Progressives, please enjoy the classic posts, and maybe your understanding of the universe will be profoundly changed. Unlikely, because I’m not a miracle worker, but please read anyway.
Just be assured, Mr. Evil isn’t taking a vacation from being evil; instead, he’s taking a vacation so that he can drink margaritas and eat decadent foods on a beach in a tropical country.
Even Mr. Evil takes a vacation!

Thanks, D. I’ll give it my best effort!
Have a great vacation and drink lots of margaritas and eat lots of jumbo shrimps for me!
