Songs of Innocence

I have seen many different power outlets. There was the Canadian two-barred one with the occasional third hole. There was the Continental European one with the twin barrels. And there is now the English bulky three-pronged jack. Talk about Culture Shock! Hehehehhehheheheh!

But seriously people, this is the key to a whole other universe. Power outlets are like languages for electronic devices. Stop. Power outlets are only universal within a certain area; our world of unity is still divided because of the relics of the past. Past city councilmen and electricians. Past vacuum salesmen and refrigerators. There are no puns that can replace the universal power outlet I have traveled the world over to find. The one that fits all my plugs. Maybe one day that man dressed in white will return at the end of time and change the places we live in. Maybe one day the Mehdi will open our eyes to just how small a space we need to have a good old fashion laugh.
