My wife persuaded me to sleep with Martha. She said that it will make me feel good, and that it was good to have her in bed with us. When I tried to do it with Martha I was spoiled for anything else, and my wife wasn’t even jealous. However, I noticed, that while Martha [...]

When I was a teen, my first exposure to George Carlin was from a cassette I purchased called “Occupation: Foole”. I found myself listening to the cassette over and over again, and pretty soon I could almost recite his routines myself. That album has the now-legendary routine of his “7 words you can’t say on [...]

I have been a fan of the National Lampoon since I was a teen in the 1970s. One of the most shocking articles for me to read in the mid 70s was P J O’Rourke’s “Foreigners From Around The World”, which appeared in the National Lampoon in May, 1976. The article is really a heap [...]

“Excessive text messaging and email” is now proposed to be included as new mental illnesses in an update to the Diagnostics and Statistical Manual (DSM-IV). These are not the only silly classifications they have.
One proposed mental illness that I have heard from that seminal magazine, the Journal of Polymorphic Perversity, is “Consensual Validation Disorder”. That [...]

Some updates to the story I wrote.
There are some minor changes to my story. (link above)
The Chris Crocker video in question.
His imitators (parody, of course, and not all male). Many of these stray far off the topic of Chris Crocker: 1 2 3 4 5 (Israel?) 6 7 8 9 10 (a hockey player?) 11

For 3 < 6 or 4,
And than 1 it’s slightly >.
All things in nature come in 3s,

While $s gain more dignity
if augmented 3 x 3 –
A 3 whose slender curves are pressed
By banks, for compound interest;
Oh, would that, paying loans or rent,

You take tan b and ×

and just to make it more complex
÷ cot(Δx)
And so then by csc(Θ)
× angles π, ρ, η
and show that they continue on
by proof with δ - ε.
Once tidied-up you then inspect
and find the answer incorrect
So then you do the question over
Once it’s right you then discover
You were to do the even [...]

To add to the “Welcome Back Potter” idea, there may also be students in Harry’s class that, you know, may be into illicit “elixirs” or maybe they bought a “potion” they weren’t supposed to have from some wicked witch down the road. There would be cases of potion abuse that would likely involve administrators and [...]

Pink Martini is a Jazz ensemble (although much of what they do is of an “international” flavour) featuring a lead vocalist, a pianist, and a string and horn section. I purchased a CD recently called Hey Eugene, whose title track is really hilarious. It was played on our local jazz station. The other tracks are [...]

Anyone who had used a UNIX operating system might be aware of some of the fun things on it. Such as a command called “fortune”, which generates short aphorisms and quotations similar to ones found in fortune cookies. Except some of these are funny, witty, sarcastic, satirical, and so on. I use a Linux system, [...]

For some reason I am lukewarm in my view of The Simpsons, although it is difficult to deny its effect on the masses: I think it is rivalling Bonanza and Gunsmoke as one of the longest-running series in television history,but not the longest.
Notwithstanding The Simpsons, I am more of a fan of Groening’s comic strip [...]

I have always been in stitches every time I read Peter Applebome’s imitation Hemingway:

We were young and our happiness dazzled us with its strength. But there was also a terrible betrayal that lay within me like a Merle Haggard song at a French restaurant. …

Welcome Back, Potter
Harry Potter gets teacher training, graduates, and gets sent back to Hogwarts to teach. He is assigned a classroom of the worst students in the school, referred to as “sweathogs”, or to be more precise, “warthogs”. See what happens with our future witches and warlocks who have emotional and learning problems, who are [...]

You’ve seen it. Both wear plumber-butt pants. (In both cases, you therefore need to say “no” to crack). Both groups wear their baseball caps backwards. The women in both groups are oversexed. Rednecks live in trailer parks; Rappers will not hesitate to tell you they come from the Ghetto. Both live in varying degrees of [...]

Wow. I was going through You-Tube, and, remembering the Chris Crocker hysteria (his and those he caused), there are now a plethora of Chris Crocker imitators who are standing up “in defense” of Jamie Lynn Spears. “Leave Jamie Lynn Alone” seems to be the most common title. All of them try to imitate the conniption [...]
