I’ll handle the morning jolt, if you don’t mind.
Cher’s daughter Chastity will become Chaz, a man. When that kid appeared on the Sonny and Cher Show in the early 70’s, I said, “There’s something wrong wid dat chile. It ain’t normal bringing a chile on a prime time show, and someday that chile’s gonna do something crazy.”
Now, I’m all over the fact that doctors everyday do sex change operations when they be easy to do, like at birth, when a chile is born with both sets privates: wee wee’s and woo woo’s. Okay, so’s I gits that it be nature’s ambidextrous way and all.
But I still think there’s something wrong wid dat chile.
Obama’s deft handling of a renegade fly during an interview is all I needs to know about how he’ll handle an international crisis when it lands on him. Notice how one swat silenced everyone from Rush to Oreilly. They gots nuthin’ to say ever since the Prez showed them what could happen to them if’n they dont stfu.
There’s a calm lately. even with Iran’s protest marches. I don’t like things being this quiet and normal and even boring. Calm B4 the storm? N. Korea and their missile launches never led to nuthin’, so’s I donts be worryin’ about it none no how. China seems to have calmed down about the way our banks ripped them off. They finally git it: It’s bidness. Slow boat/slow fuse. It’s a match.
Even Russia ain’t actin’ out like usual. SO what’s up? Something wicked this way comes? Paw said when a summer starts out like the way this one started out, with all the bears stampedin’ out the woods, then it’s best to stick close to home. Something’s amiss.
It’s been a good eight years since 911, which was 56 dog years since 1993’s attack on the WTC. 8 plus 56 = 64. I only see two sixes, so there ain’t no antichrist parallel. So we probably won’t see the second coming this year or nuthin’. Nostradomus done said that 2009 would be a hot summer, with rotten television shows, so you can’t figure nuthin’ from him neither. Maybe this is the year Paula Abdul finally clobbers Simon Cowell.
But I don’t like things being this quiet. If’n I were prez, and things were this hot, I’d raise the alert level to lemonade.
Keep your eye’s peeled, America.

Just damn, Chris, this is exactly what I’ve been thinking about all day. I was wondering when the third-rate, former real-estate attorney turned talk show host (on for 4 1/2 hrs/day) was going to get around to this important topic, yet I remained disappointed. Thank you for clarifying the important issues and keeping us ‘unwashed masses’ up to speed on the important topics. Oh, and don’t forget, meth is a helluva drug.

perhaps the fingerpointing spokesdperson for misunderstanding might try to understand the confusion of the vulnerable
reductive minimization only enhances the pain of the disenfranchised
has this critic ever considered investigating the why of another soul s dislocation
the craft of baby talk might be amplified into authentic adult questioning
what is wrong with our culture where anger is art? where duplicity is drama processed for the masses to let them believe american individuality still exists
a skilled stage writer like playwright larry myers attempts this ij new moving play
“Bigfoot Dates Cher”
the titlelconnotes the multidimensional thinking operative here
