LOUD MOCKERS Strike Again

by Terry February 20, 2010

I can’t wait for Sarah Palin to weigh in on this scorching satire of the teabaggets, now that she’s been bitch slapped to a pulp by an actress with a sense of humor; something Palin only pretends to have.  My hope is she’ll simply exhaust herself from the increasingly frequent bouts of fake outrage, until [...]

Miss Fortune Teller

by Terry February 7, 2010

A (Rogue) Miss Fortune Teller sat in a comfy chair
As she engaged in an ancient ritual.
The ones that had gathered did not see
What the Fortune Teller was doing
For she was bathed [...]

That poor bastard.

by Terry January 30, 2010

Epiphanies

by Terry January 28, 2010

He’s said to be a Buddhist; I don’t think that faith offers the kind of forgiveness and redemption that is offered by the Christian faith.
I mentioned the Buddhism only because his mother is a Buddhist
and he has apparently said that he is a Buddhist.

For my money, or the lack thereof, no Zappa character says Zappa to me like “The Central Scrutinizer,” the narrator on Joe’s Garage (November, 1979). It’s Zappa in snarky hyperbolic perfection, introducing himself as the enforcer of laws that haven’t been passed yet, and the messenger of the dangers of that horrible force called MUSIC. . .

Commie Pinko.
If you wandered in here in the last 24 hours, you may have been greeted by weird theme anomalies, a laundry list of errors at the top of the page, multiple slide show windows, or a picture of a comatose kitten named Commie Pinko.
Commie Pinko can sleep through anything, even a major theme upgrade [...]

When Bigshots Get Religion

by Terry October 11, 2009

Michael Moore says he’s come to believe “that capitalism is opposite everything that Jesus (and Moses and Mohammed and Buddha) taught.” He says that “all the great religions are clear about one thing: It is evil to take the majority of the pie and leave what’s left for everyone to fight over.”
