That's better.

Ahh! guess who's logged on at night now my love.

Not quite. I always say: Sometimes a cigar is just a penis wrapped in a tobacco leaf on the toned thighs of a fiery Cuban girl.

"What this country needs is a good ten-cent cigar."

It's all about the gravy

I heard you on the Rachel Maddow show last night talking to David Bender.

Sorry, I was interrupted. I wanted to say that Brother David was brilliant as usual. And I think Mr. Bender really enjoyed talking to you BD. Kudos.

Everyone with intelligence enjoys talking to BD!

Now that my friend is funny

Yes, I thought so.

I'm looking at another Rottie, a male who weighs in at 118 pounds! Hope he likes ketchup.

You just noticed that now?

Mind you, the first time I saw that saying it was dragons....

And to think that it was on a whim while waiting for the umpteenth computer reboot to complete, based on his topic (Veep nominees).


You're too kind. It seemed slightly disloyal to She Who Must Be Heard to be talking to anybody else on the air, let alone from that, um, network, but upon hearing everybody up till then going on about this senator and that senator, when aren't that many Demo senators to spare and a veto-proof majority a priori, it sort of spurred me. We even disagreed, albeit with great civility. He's certainly a political geek (and I mean that as a complimum).


You are also too kind. Am certainly happy to talk with the intelligent. I might actually learn something.


D'accord.

Perhaps he's a mustard man.

Deleted for excess.

Is that "Wavy Gravy"? That old hippie is still alive? Wow!

Give me GRAVY for my mashed potatoes.

I've been draggin' since Monday!
(No, not drag. On me, it just looks sad.)

Actually, the first time I saw it it was wizards, then dragons. However, city ordinances won't allow me to keep dragons so Rottweilers have to do.

The original was Tolkein: “Do not meddle in the affairs of Wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.”

The parody was "Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup."

And now, your version.

Not as sad as on some.

I thought it was Gandalf who said to Pippin "If you would meddle in the affairs of wizards you must be prepared to think of such things." He was referring to being tortured by Sauron if Pippin were captured.

(I'm an undercover Tolkien geek. Please don't tell anyone.)

Don't make me reread LOTR, AGAIN, to find the quote.

According to a ton of LOTR message boards it is, "Do not meddle in the affairs of Wizards for they are subtle and quick to anger."

At least that's one, it could also be the warning to Pippen. That would have been Gandalf warning Pippen after he looked into the stone right?

I'm a LOTR geek too but its been so long since I reread it I can't remember it verbatim. I'll need to buy a new copy before I can reread it since I lent out the last new copy I bought and never got it back.

Which is why I rarely lend out books.

Do not meddle in the affairs of Moderators, for you are a troll and can be banned in a heartbeat.

Oops. Wrong Pippin.

Pippin! Original play was called "Sally of the Sawdust." W.C. Fields was featured in it.I believe Irene Ryan was doing a production of Pippin when she passed away. A consummate trouper, she waited until after the curtain call to expire.

Yes, and at that, after having sung this:

Berthe:

When you are as old as I, my dear
And I hope that you never are
You will woefully wonder why, my dear
Through your cataracts and catarrh
You could squander away or sequester
A drop of a precious year
For when your best days are yester
The rest 're twice as dear

What good is a field on a fine summer night
If you sit all alone with the weeds?
Or a succulent pear if with each juicy bite
You spit out your teeth with the seeds?
Before it's too late stop trying to wait
For fortune and fate you're secure of
For there's one thing to be sure of mate
There's nothing to be sure of

Oh, its time to start livin'
Time to take a little from this world we're given
Time to take time, for spring will turn to fall
In just no time at all

I've never wondered if I was afraid
When there was a challenge to take
I've never thought about how much I weighed
When there was still one piece of cake
Maybe it's meant the hours I've spent
Feeling broken and bent and unwell
But there's still no cure so heaven sent
As the chance to raise some hell

Oh, its time to start livin'
Time to take a little from this world we're given
Time to take time, for spring will turn to fall
In just no time at all

Now when the drearies do attack
And a siege of the sads begin
I throw these regal shoulders back
And lift these noble chins

Give me a man who is handsome and strong
Someone who's stalwart and steady
Give me a night that's romantic and long
And give me a month to get ready
Now I could waylay some aging roue
And persuade him to play in some cranny
But its hard to believe I'm being led astray
By a man who calls me granny

Oh, its time to start livin'
Time to take a little from this world we're given
Time to take time, for spring will turn to fall
In just no time at all

Now sages tweet that age is sweet
Good deeds and good works earn you laurels
But what could make you feel more obsolete
Than being noted for your morals?

Here is a secret I never have told
Maybe you'll understand why
I believe if I refuse to grow old
I can be young 'til I die
Now I've known the fears of sixty-six years
I've had troubles and tears by the score
But the only thing I'd trade them for
Is sixty-seven more

Oh, its time to keep livin'
Time to keep taking from this world I'm givin'
You are my time, so I'll throw off my shawl
And watching your flings be flung all over
Makes me feel young all over
In just no time at all!

-- Stephen Schwartz, Pippin

Irene "Granny" Ryan, "No Time At All"

I remember a song called "Corner of the Sky" from Pippin.
I think Pippin was the last great original broadway show.
Now everything is rehashed. I remember the lady who played Granny Clampet on the Beverly Hillbillies was in Pippin just before she passed away. Must have been 1972.

Irene Ryan....... Pay Attention!!!!!!

Carnival
Natalie Merchant

Well, I've walked these streets
A virtual stage, it seemed to me
Makeup on their faces
Actors took their places next to me

Well, I've walked these streets
In a carnival, of sights to see
All the cheap thrill seekers vendors and the dealers
They crowded around me

1-Have I been blind have I been lost
Inside myself and my own mind
Hypnotized, mesmerized by what my eyes have seen?

Well, I've walked these streets
In a spectacle of wealth and poverty
In the diamond markets the scarlet welcome carpet
That they just rolled out for me

And I've walked these streets
In the madhouse asylum they can be
Where a wild-eyed misfit prophet
On a traffic island stopped and he raved of saving me
(rpt 1)

Have I been blind, have I been lost
Have I been blind, have I been mean
Have I been strong

Hypnotized, mesmerized by what my eyes have seen
In that great street carnival, in that carnival?

Finally, a clown that doesn't scare me

Is this "clown" supposed to be some kind of cultural reference that I recognize?

You Won't Win

Wow, you got a picture of my old boss! Damn, where'd you find it?

That's Wavy-Gravy one of the original Merry Pranksters. If you're younger than 45 there's not a chance you'd know about that. These are "real" hippies not Shaggy from Scooby Doo.

Well there you go.

Wavy's got to be seventy-something by now. Clearly LSD is good for longevity.

Granny wasn't a Clampett, she was Jeds mother in law. Her name was Daisy Moses.

Oh, you watch too much Tee Vee kid.

Clampett? I can't even find it!
