ExxonMobil Cries Like Baby With Lost Snowcone

Waaaaaah! Fucking ExxonMobil really is doing everything in their power to appear like the victims this last week. Like they were walking around a bar with a red baboon ass and their panties around the ankles and now are pissed they got raped by a dozen drunk hillbillies. Fuck them. First they did absolutely nothing wrong but their pipeline flooded a neighborhood in Arkansas. IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL! Go buy some adult diapers at Walmart and soak it up!

Low Opinion of Humanity Gets Lower

Comments regarding the story on former VP Cheney warning of North Korea:

They wasted a perfectly good heart on this guy.

Its always fun to read Libs comments following stories about VP Cheney. Its an excellent glimpse into Orwell's "two minute hate" in 1984. Cheney is their Emmanual Goldstein, whom they attack with all the frothing and foaming of fits of madness.

Reading these comments on here...I can see why we as a species are going to fail. The fact that we even entertain this war mongering, war profiteering piece of "doo doo" is exceptionally psychotic.
...I am tired. The few that actually take the time to agree speak of feeling the same way...we are tired of the games and the lies. Spewed by the politicians and repeated by every wannabe political pundit.

Don't Feed The Piano Player

My music teachers never taught me how to deal with this scenario.

I was having enough trouble playing the 70 year old jazz song without also having to catch cookies in my mouth at the same time. And they had an Easter Basket for me too but I was too busy with the Transmission to get it. So they saved it for me and fed me once chocolate at a time while I played Frank Sinatra.

Another way of saying it

Cow Milk Blues dropped by for a visit and a musical discussion ensued that led from Linda Ronstadt's Heart Like a Wheel album as an example of a session band that was too perfect...to Little Feat (founder wrote the song Willin') which was a better approach to bar music...to Frank Zappa who worked with the Little Feat founder)...and then to Captain Beefheart (who worked with Zappa) who should be known only to old hippies and artistic type snobs. Beefheart was an interesting cat and the part that I liked most is how he would try to describe how he wanted the music to be played... 

"Play it like a bat being dragged out of oil and it's trying to survive, but it's dying from asphyxiation."

I don't think the Italians have a single phrase like Legato or Pianissimo that would cover such a dynamic. It reminds me of Brian Wilson trying to describe to the studio musicians in his attempt to record Smile. "Play it [a trombone] like a rain drop on a Sunday morning." Not long after that he lost his marbles and the album got shelved for three decades.

Raise a glass to the artists of the world because busted pipelines in Walmart-istan are never in their agendas.

High Acid Levels

It took two queens and several mulligans but I beat level 5.
