Mother's Day

I miss the cookies
I miss the pie
I miss the turkey
the twinkle in your eye


....... I even miss the tuna casserole.

Love you.

Thoughts for a Friday.....

 

EIGHT THOUGHTS TO PONDER: Number 8 Life is sexually transmitted. Number 7 Good health is merely the slowest possible rate at which one can die. Number 6 Men have two emotions: Hungry and Horny. They can't tell them apart. If you see a gleam in his eyes, make him a sandwich. Number 5 Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day. Teach a person to use the Internet and they won't bother you for weeks, months, maybe years. Number 4 Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying there dying just like the rest of us who paid no attention to the rules. Number 3 All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism. Number 2 In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it  normal. And The Number 1 Thought Life is like a jar of Jalapeno peppers--what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow. - - - and as someone recently said to me: "Don't worry about old age--it doesn't last that long." ~ hat tip to old buddy, Uncle Rosie

anyways.....

boy &howdy..... it sure enough is a swell day.   I was thinking of attempting to write something, but nah, I am engaged checking out Peter the Great and the battle of Poltava.  Golly, that Peter, he was some kind of great all right.  Anyways..... have a song.

Sarah Palin shoots her mouth off at NRA convention..... didn't think it was loaded

Like a yeast infection that will not go away, Sarah Palin showed up at the NRA convention in Houston.

I would like to give a complete rundown on what she said...... but it was really just the same old shit she keeps saying..... as long as she keeps getting paid.

Also on the docket were well know intellectuals, Ted Nugent and Glenn Beck.  Also featured wered Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, Rick Perry, the gun toting Texas governor.r appeared in video form, as Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan did. 

N ow, I really don't care what they all said.  I just rather wanted to know who showed up.
Of course, no one showed up to speak for 'Free'.  Estimates for a Palin speech are over $100 K, plus expenses.

I just wonder if any one of them chipped in a little money to help pay for the Sandy Hook kid's funerals.

May 4th 1970.......... Remember?

Now.............. if only those students would have had assault rifles with high capacity magazines...... they could have defended themselves and a mass murder could have been prevented.

I guess that is the message of the NRA

Say, who was that VP candidate anywayz?

Well, gees.  I am not the artiest guy around, nor do I claim to be.

And.... I am not much of a poet....though at random moments, I try to be.

With that in mind.... I offer, with no apologies, an ode to Sarah Palin... the best goddam ex-VP candidate who ever quit public office..... cause it was "gosh too much work."


I call it "an ode to an Ex-Governor"

There once was a young lass from Poughkeepsie
Who sang and danced and drank like a Gypsy
The words she sang were perverse
The steps never would she rehearse
And always she said, “Sailor do you miss me?”

But one moonlit night in Duluth
She imbibed copious amounts of Vermouth
“I miss the olives and gin
To complete my sin”
And all agreed she spoke the truth.

See, she had screwed her way from here to Manila
Every sailor, every ship in all the flotilla
“But my honor is noble and intact
though I make a honest  living on my back
unlike that dumb whore from Wasilla”
