[orleans]

i went on whtierosesociety and downloaded mike malloy's show from november 3rd (day after the election) and i'm listening to it. again.

i also listened to his tell me lies recording of 8 minutes of bush lies.

maybe i need a drink. diet coke just ain't doing it for me tonight.

1. What's your poison?

Wine, Bourbon, Scotch, Vodka? I don't know if TV would be a good diversion. Maybe read a good book, or journaling to get it off your chest.

[orleans]

5. i don't really journal

and the book i'm reading is blinded by the right by david brock. i know i'm a couple years behind with that, but i wanted to see what he had to say. (i checked it out from the library--i refused to buy it.) and that book is hardly a pleasure--it pisses me off, the more i read it. pisses me off, and disgusts me.

i really don't have a "poison" -- any suggestions? i've got some tgif pina colada mix in the fridge.

(pause)

okay--i'm set now. pina colada it is (and some planters cashews)

:)

[Wapsie B]

6. Oh I love cashews!

No pina colada for me though. It was cheap beer night here.

:)

Have a good one!

[orleans]

15. tank you

[Droopy]

2. Go for the whiskey and post insanely here in the lounge

[orleans]

7. What Madrone said.

And a healthy dose of Zappa.

[Madrone]

8. SOME PEOPLE LIKE CUPCAKES BETTER. I FOR ONE CARE LESS FOR THEM!

Girl you though he was a man
But he was a muffin
He hung around till you found
That he didn't know nuthin'

Girl you thought he was a man
But he only was a-puffin'
No cries is heard in the night
As a result of him stuffin'

[evlbstrd]

9. Dumb all over.

Whoever we are

Wherever were from

We shoulda noticed by now

Our behavior is dumb

And if our chances

Expect to improve

Its gonna take a lot more

Than tryin to remove

The other race

Or the other whatever

From the face

Of the planet altogether

[Madrone]

10. another of my faves -

heehee.


My name is Swaggart
I am an asshole
All my friends,
They call me 'Jim'
(Hi, Jim!)
I'm from Louisianna,
I make lots of money,
But I fucked up
And commited a sin

Come out here to Californy,
Just to find me
Some pretty girls
(No shit!)
The ones I seen
Gets me so horny;
Ruby lips,
'N teeth like pearls!

Wanna love 'em all!
In the name of Jesus!
Wanna pretty girl--
I'll even pay!
I'll buy 'em furs!
I'll buy 'em jewelry!
I'll never fuck them;
Here's what I say:

I'm lonesome Cowboy Jim!
(Speakin' atcha!)
I only give 'em the tips of him!
(Posin' atcha!)
My cowboy pants,
My cowboy dance,
My bold advance,
On this here prostitute . . .
Yodel-oh-oo-pee-hey
Yodel-oh-oo-pee!

(He's lonesome Cowboy Jim
Look at the tip of him!)
Come on in this place,
'N I'll buy you a taste,
You can sit on my face--
Where's my prostitute/waitress?

Swaggart, Swaggart redneck (thank you!)
Swaggart, Swaggart redneck (yessir!)

I'm an awful nice guy! (so you say)
I sweat all day in the sun! (oh yeah, yeah)
I'm a preacher by trade,
Quite a bundle like me,
And I'm a feature ol' mumble-mumble
Son-of-a-gun!
(He's a unionized roofin' old
Son-of-a-gun!)
Fill in the blank!

When I get off, I get,
When I get off, I get,
When . . . I, I, I, I,
And then, Sharkey says:
When I get off (pfft!)
I get sinful
(Just the tip! Only the tip now, come on)
I spoo
Till I goo
On the rug
Then I find me
Some eighteen ninety-five Luiann--, Louisianna style prostitute
And make her do pornographic sex while I watch
And I have
So much fun
Jesus! Jesus! Jay-zus! Jay-zus!
(Pornographic stuff and he has so much fun)
(What?)

I huff
And I puff
(Hratche-plche
Hratche-plche)
And I pump up my sanctified erection
Till my cheeks
Puff up
An' turn red
Along with my neck
(Say, varmint!)
I drool
On my shirt
Takes a little while before I squirt
But I've been doin' it for twenty years and they haven't caught me yet
UH-OH!
Made a mistake this time!
Now I've sinned
Everybody!
(What an asshole!)
Made a mistake and I've sinned, uh!
Made a mistake and I've sinned, ow!
Made a mistake and I've sinned, what?
Made a mistake and I've sinned

Lonesome Cowboy Jim!
(Sinnin' atcha!)
Come smell this fringe-y shirt!
(Grinnin' atcha!)
My cowboy pants,
My cowboy dance,
My bold advance,
On this here prostitute . . .
Yodel-oh-oo-pee-yeh
Yodel-oh-oo-pee!

(HE'S LONESOME COWBOY JIM/SCOTT,
BOO-HOO-HOO-HOO
Don't you dare to laugh at him/swat)
(Oh, tune me in now)
Come on in this place,
An' I'll buy you a taste,
'N you can sit on my face--
Where's my prostitute?
OPAL, YOU HOT LITTLE BITCH!

[evlbstrd]

12. I'm listening to Best Band You Never Heard in Your Life.

God I miss Frank.

Squat.. down, so mean she cant grow no lips.

200 years old, so mean she cant grow no lips.

[Madrone]

13. No WAY!!!!

I've never met another person that has that set - or has even heard of it, for that matter.

You rule.

I love their rendition of Ring of Fire.


:headbang:

[evlbstrd]

14. Oh Annie, Oh Annie, Oh Anusol!

I admit it! I am one very huge Zappa freak. I own almost the entire catalog.

[Madrone]

16. I'm not worthy.

I only have a couple. Too much music, too much diversity in musical tastes, too little cash money! I'm workin' on it, though.

[evlbstrd]

17. Hey, don't get all vexed about it.

Frank was current when I wa growing up. Just not played on the radiol I bought most of it on vinyl at used record stores while I was in high school and college. But that was when vinyl was still king. I later went on a Clash and Talking Heads jag.

[Madrone]

18. lol

I'm not vexed. Truly.

'ere.

[evlbstrd]

19. Thanks.

I was running short.
(cough)
Didn't mean to waste.

[evlbstrd]

20. Ooh. Bolero.

It's playing right now. Have you ever seen Allegro non Tropo? It's a great parody of Fantasia.

[Madrone]

21. No, but THANKS!

I just looked it up, and it's now sitting at the top of my Amazon Wish List! Maybe I'll make that my upcoming birthday gift to myself - it looks/sounds awesome!

[evlbstrd]

22. You'll love it.

Small spoiler:

Frisney? Who is this Frisney?

[fleabert]

23. I made a parody post for you to laugh at!

:hug: I know what you mean, and I have signed, btw. thanks for getting the word out, and updated sig totals today?)

[AntiCoup2K4]

24. Yeah, I've been catching up with Malloy and Randi tonight myself...

and I'm in a bit of a funk as well. Maybe someone should call the James Gang...... Joe, save us for fucks sake!!

JAMES GANG - FUNK #49

Uh, sleep all day, out all night,
I know where you're going.
I don't that's a-acting right,
You don't think it's showing.

A-jumpin' up, fallin' down,
Don't misunderstand me.
You don't think that I know your plan,
What you try'n to hand me?

Out all night, sleep all day,
I know what you're doing.
If you're gonna a-act that way,
Think there's trouble brewing

[BlueIris]

25. I hope that your funk is somewhat improved.

I'm in something of a permanent funk myself. Hopefully, after years of therapy and medication, it will be less. But I'm not optimistic at the moment. But that's me. Here's to you, fellow DUer, and to Monday.
