A Little Late. . .

. . .but since Black Friday is a month long event because douchebags are too freaking stupid to stand patiently in line at a Wal-Mart without randomly slaughtering one another, hey, better late than never.

Joy Behar just can't help who she is. She is overweight and beastly, perennially wrong on most subjects and has a perpetual "I just sucked a lemon" look on her face. Yet, she can even outdo her own ignorance as she did recently on The View.

Is "Black Friday" racist?

Well, only in the mind of color-sensitive liberal twits like you, Joy.

Ahh, must be time for another Steely Dan interlude.

Friday Means Music. . .

Nothing says what on your mind better than music. So if you can figure out from these cryptic Steely Dan lyrics what I'm thinking, then you are a genius. Or a psychopath.

My thoughts are often as random, scatological, phantasmagorical and weird as a Dan tune. On occasion I have to stop and ask myself, what the hell are you thinking, you freak?

Today I was thinking I'd like to take a yo-yo for a ride.



The above video is from a person who calls himself Melegorm on YouTube. He does some really interesting photo montage interpretations of Dan songs. Normally, he does not allow embedding of the videos, but I see that he may have change his mind, which is good for me and good for you.

And since Melegorm has opened his creativity for us to share, here's another obscure personal favorite.

Just Disgusting, , ,

More lies.

Democrats have done all they can to keep this stimulus highway robbery bill away from prying eyes.

Now, the bill is being rushed to the floor so certain DemocRATS , including super-genius Nancy Pelosi, can skirt away to Europe for 8 days to hide from the inevitable fallout of passing this behemoth of a "borrowing" bill.

Liars, cheats, scum. Thanks Congress, you're a real Brooklyn Charmer.

It's A Gi-raffe, It's A Gi-raffe. . .

Through the miracle of modern serendipity, I was able to re-install "Winders" yesterday, fully and completely using my off-the-shelf purchased copy of XP Service Pack 2. How'd I do it you ask? Beats the hell outta me, but I'm not complaining.

SHE LIVES!!

I trimmed some of the fat from the install and now have a lean and mean computing machine. I've also taken to liberty of downloading Sun Micro's Open Office suite, which is an open source MS Office comparable. I'll let you guys know how it works as I use it a bit.

Ahhh, the luxury of a happy-go-lucky computer, contently whirring along, munching ones and zeroes effortlessly in seemingly endless fashion. Thanks be to silicon!

Ok, I've left many an open hole around this place, so I guess I better get to work! I suspect that FedEx will be arriving soon with my matched and signature verified recovery CD with Service Pack 2 slipstreamed inside. I think I'll carry it home this weekend, blast a hole in the package with the .357 magnum and send it back to HP in Maharashtra. Along with a kind note declaring, "¡Chupa la verga, carepichas!"

I think it's time for some music. . .

. . .oh, Bodhisattva, won't you take me by the hand?

The Paper Trail. . .

You know, I haven't bought into many of the conspiracy theories about our beloved Dear Leader Barack Obama. People have said a lot of crazy stuff about him and much of it is probably bunk.

Yet, questions remain, valid questions I might add, about Senator Obama's background. Debbie Schlussel, whose name is easier to type than say, has an exclusive report on Obama's rather sloppy and curiously mishandled Selective Service registration.

Is he The Manchurian Candidate? A created leader and not one of us?

Remains to be seen, but in the meantime let's all take a deep breath, relax and well. . .let's get our smooth on with some Thursday morning Steely Dan.



Heh. Dirty Work. Get it?

Are you even paying attention?

Babylon Sisters. . .

One of my favorite, all-time musical compositions. Babylon Sisters by Steely Dan from the 1980 release Gaucho just has no comparison. I don't even know how to desribe it. Soulful and undulating. I bet you didn't know music could undulate, did you?

Silly wabbit.

Here is Steely Dan from a 2003 performance:



And here is a man who calls himself "The 70's Guy" and his jazz guitar interpretation.



Phenomenal!!
