This looked easy.
Well, it’s just you.
And we know why you’re here and all.

I sat in the woods for twelve hours yesterday. And I never felt better. But next time I’ll try it without the beer.

Sugaring is a mindset. And I have downloaded it.
See:
1. Count.
2. Ponder.
3. Watch.
4. Re-count.
5. Re-ponder.
6. Re-watch.
Dude, I think I’ve got it.

Today I became a student again. Yep, after dropping out of college with one course to go in 1986 (University of Iowa), I found myself sitting in a classroom once again today. But this time – today, that is – I was studying something far better than political science: post and beam construction.

A man I once knew approached me today. He was nervous. He fidgeted more than I like to be around fidgeting, if you know what I mean. I think he was sweating, too, even though it wasn’t hot. Not even warm, in fact. But I can’t be sure. If he was sweating, that is. Because he made me too nervous watching him be so nervous that I lost track of who was watching whom be nervous.
“Tools,” he said, plaintively. “The secret is in the tools.”
Of course.

This year’s best death-rock band is now featuring Jim Carroll, Vic Chesnutt and Mark Linkous (see Sparklehorse video below). As Carroll would sing, “ they were all my friends, and they died.” Musically speaking, they were. And they did. Damn it.

And, for some reason, this song was going through my head all day long. No, make that: All. Day. Long:

They said if you keep smiling while you say, “Vermont,” you could stay longer.
So many rules. But all in the name of: Self-love.

Note to Deb Markowitz: That opening speech was dreadful. You seem more interested in being something that someone – or many someones – wants you to be. Worse, you’re apparently not very good at being that someone. So stop. And just be yourself.

That’s all, folks.
Who’s this Deb Markowitz? I don’t plan on running against some liberal bitch from the Homosocialist Republic of Vermont in 2012, so tell me some things: Does she have a bod like mine? Does she have an expensive wardrobe? Does she know how to write an 8 year domestic and foreign policy on her hand? Does she know how to handle a gun? Listen, it’s gonna be me and the black dude running in 2012. There’s just no room for another uppity woman. I’m the star here, donchano? I’m calling a friend in the Vermont Tea Party to get on this. Bitch.

she just stood there
asking for it
like they all do
what the hell
do they think
is going to happen?
I’m going to
give them flowers?
I have my orders
and my protocol
she’s not supposed
to be there
it’s the public good
I serve
not these
goddamned women
hanging about
like whores
who the hell
do they think
they are?
who they’re fucking with?
I’ve done them
like this before
standing there
with your arms folded
with your sign
and your candle
and your fucking megaphone
and your tits sticking out
arrogant bitch
just asking for it

Both times the Barre PD have used their new tasers have been on women. Glad they don’t have bulldozers.
Peter that was so metal,(good/bad), I didn\’t want to say awesome. Its\’s more metal anyways. \’
Sorry I have to fit this in all my posts – No Markowitz No Markowitz – any of the other Dems will be a more believible standard bearer for the party.
