que tal?

hey bitches....

hectic day today..... two little kids, sign your life off to tears and screams and annoyances of kids....... am experimenting with playing margaret thatcher recordings to scarlet (good role model) to see if that can shut her up.... right now it is absolutely working like a charm - well to some extent anyway..... her behavior is much different to alex in terms of needing soothing but also her age, about 3 months and ten days.... i didn't really know alex during this phase as we were apart between his 2 months to 6 months old age......

so today went to local botanical gardens where there was special festival, like a fair.... there were african drummers and some giant walking dinosaur for kids (dolly) and the parks are nice anyway featuring excellent japanese-styled gardens...... have broken out the missouri tigers hoody for the fall after bleaching it well..... the leaves of the perennials are ochre, rusty red, etc, as you'd expect...... the hoody is convenient as can pop the nokia phone in there and listen to streaming radio........... fox news had some bill o'reilly special on blackbart, the stage coach robber of the wild west which was of a very good standard and very enjoyable....... if we can make a petition, how about a special on pows of the japanese during world war 2 and the pearl harbor invasion, although i think they've already made a doco on the latter..........  btw, if you ever want to open a bank account in america without showing the right credentials, wells fargo is for you! the new york banks won't let you

showing my kid some of the animals at the mini-zoo at the auburn botanical gardens, such as kangaroos, birds, etc..... i started remembering one of my first, and then not long after, last memories of my father, both revealing his generally bossy and domineering behavior...... although not necessarily in a bad way..... the first memory was that i was around four years old and of having a school excursion to taronga zoo here in sydney...... my father told me i could take three photos (not more) with his camera at the zoo.... it was somewhat of a big deal taking photos with a camera at age four as this was not common practice in those days when nobody had cell phones to take pictures with easily.... of course i used the entire roll of film up and that was the last time my father let me use his camera but he was not obnoxious about it and that was never an issue between us.... for my own part, i could barely stop at three photos just with the first target, a dingo, which i can still see in my mind's eye as if it was in the viewfinder of my four year old mind right now....... my last memory of my father was of visiting him in early 2006 for a couple of weeks, staying with him at his place and his lending me his car but trying to put some limitation there as if he'd care much how much i used it, although, looking back, maybe he was short on money for gas, who knows........anyway, they aren't particularly bad memories......

i had to head out to mt druitt to visit my buddies from congo.... it's the second time i see them this week although i don't see them much in general.......today the mile, who is around 22 years old now, was showing me his apple computer and i was impressed by the sophistication of his video editing software and editing efforts and i see that he has advanced well beyond my own level of digital editing proficiency, which is generally low anyway...... he has extremely advanced software and computer...... in the background was that movie with will ferrell  and all the gangstas in LA.... i think T.I. was saying something about frozen assets, which tied in for my reason for today's visit which was to borrow their spare freezer which we agreed upon on friday for the sake of my upcoming spring roll business

if you've read this blog attentively, you would have heard me harp on quite a bit about the harmonics of the number seven and the seven different notes from a to g and how they manifest some kind of immutable cosmic law based on the geometry and reality of the law of seven....... for example, i suppose my spring roll business will have it's birthday on june 7th when i open for business for the first time to the public, i can only assume this would be the real birthday of that particular business.......not that it's a very big or detailed business, so a study of the harmonics of seven involved in a little enterprise like that wouldn't be very relevant..... but say you knew Donald Trump's main line of business had it's birthday on march 20th, same as the autumnal equinox (in the southern hemisphere)..... counting off seven 52 day periods would reveal suitable times for advertising, sales, etc, which would be most propitious for that business.... for example, the first period of 52 days, after the birthday, for a person, nation or business entity, is always best for building up the reputation, asking for favors, generally pursuing the goodwill of a the populace....adverts showing a business' charitable endowments, etc, would go down well during this first 52 day period......... the fourth period, which is generally like the 'c' note harmonic, where we find most of the virgos and libras born in real life (between august 26 and october 17 precisely, depending on the exact moment of the equinox that year), is best for advertising campaigns.......the fifth, jupiterean, musical 'f' note harmonic is best for aggressive pursuits of sales...... the final, last 52 day period, before the birthday, ruled by saturn - corresponding to the musical note 'e' is the best time to deal with law-suits and the courts.........the third period, ruled by mars, or the musical note 'g', is the time best spent working hard and long to build up a business........... in this respect, it's interesting to note that america has it's birthday on july 4th which is the first day of the third yearly 52 period which is to say, the first day mars kicks in...... so these kinds of countries likewise, do best by putting their heads down and working hard.................. australia and the arab world are quite the opposite in the sense that they are ruled by venus which is a holiday kind of period.... people can work hard during venus periods and succeed like that, but they may do just as well by not working at all, but just resting!

in my mind, when considering phenomenon, it's difficult to avoid profiling certain entities without categorizing them in afore-mentioned terms..........generally religious precepts don't interest so much, however, after listening to the israeli kid mentioned recently, his eurovision song, which is somewhat catchy, we have to say that with the jewish religion, one of their things seems to ring very true, regarding their king david and one of the things he is supposedly supposed to have said, that it's possible to 'cry-out' to Heaven for help, or something like that..... that might actually be true!

hheeellllllllllpppppp!!!!!!! my kids are interfering with contemplation time! and all the dancers on Ellen are too superior

hey so i've been working hard thinking up a list of alternative jobs for jimmy kimmel, conan, fallon, et al, all these pansy guys, in case they decide to retire early and seek different employment:

a)  girlscout cookie salesman
b)  porn star

that's all i've got so far.... will keep you posted about that

hey caught some afghan folk music singer at the festival today.... and a snake charmer, what evs

moments later, just caught a big gulp of mind-dumbing tv........... for example, did you know that the average dancer on tv show Ellen would absolutely kick your arse in a danceoff? for example, the black guy/dj guy is an absolutely amazing dancer..... Ellen isn't so great, i could probably dance better than her but they have amazing dancers there.......... if you want some intellectuality you have to watch fox news..........just caught some 2 year old episode of castle mixed in with a very cool documentary on sexuality from norway on another channel -- it was quite amusing

Norway is very high up on my bucket list of places to go to.......unfortunately, the place is so awash with oil money, that all the usual kind of economics like you'd catch on fox news (or msnbc) just don't apply there because whether they go socialist or not, they are just straight loaded from all their oil wealth, it's like saudi arabia..... so actually everything in norway is so crazy expensive, you're struggling just to catch a cab or pay your way throught a month there if you're lower middle class from australia or america, although i'm sure that i'll be able to afford to spend a month or two there before i die which i definitely will look forward to at some point........... going back to harmonics if i can do so without seeming obsessed or nerdish or just confused..... there is no actual confusion, in fact.... norway i calculate is a 'd' note harmonic nation, so just like all those people you meet like me, born between may 13th and july 3rd, these people would feel in sync with Norway........

the other harmonic we failed to collate musically was the one we mentioned above occurring in the immediate 52 days after an entity/animal's/person's/nation's birthday, this is the 'a' note harmonic..........generally the musical note 'd' is in harmonic with our moon and the 'a' note with our sun

randomly: oh yeah, all you bitches  that think you're so cool coz you're a grandma at age 32, fuck you

anyway moving on, the galaxy is a big-arse place..... it makes mexico city and other massive metropi look small

but guess what, i guarantee no matter what creature you could meet in the galaxy, on some other planet.... i don't mean like a disencarnate entity like an angel or something like that, but a living, breathing creature, like a spaceman, all of them must conform to these some ordering so that in effect, you'd again be dealing with the same kind of people you're dealing with on earth, in the sense that, their souls are vibrating either to an a, b, c, d, e, f or g harmonic......... so you don't need some fancy psychologist or fbi profiler to know who you're dealing with next time you're face to face with some freaky alien (and we're all freaky aliens, in the big picture)

dear mom, I'm hot for Vinnie, signed Doogie

ben and jeb heading for 150 million $ divorce

sorry, ben and jen, not Jeb. Who is bennifer? Jennifer garner, not sure if she's an actress and the enduring ben Affleck, the butt of south park jokes... My father frequently used to tell me as a child, "just wait till you have your own children"!!! (he was grown up, I was a child, groan). Later it made sense. Marriages are fiddly. Sometimes you wish you could just go to a shaka Zulu themed witchdoctor / marriage counselling service and they say: Ok let your wife spend the night with Namibia's b grade soccer team and you're even Stevens after that. Of course, it's not how things work.


apparently Jennifer is upset Ben is gambling so much, according to the rumor mill.... We can't offer any advice except gambling for money is generally considered sinful (but so is group sex/ fornicating outside marriage, etc)...


therefore let's talk about my games of chinchon (like gin rummy) with my grandma. It was 1997 and Clinton was in office. Real Madrid were pretty good at soccer. Every Friday I'd go visit my grandma at her apartment on doctor esquerdo street in Madrid near the O'Donnell subway station. Having missed out on the benefits of extended family like aunts, cousins, grandma, etc, til age 16, and generally residing on the opposite side of the planet to grandma 👵, it seemed like we were making up for lost years. The old lady was always very happy to see me and would always cook up a storm. Then it was straight down to gambling at five pesetas (un duro), about five cents, the hand, this was, of course, before the euro. Sorry can't give you many more details except the food was great and my grandmother was always very supportive on visits to her home. I recall she hated the socialist party, PSOE, with a passion, and wanted Felipe Gonzalez thrown into jail for corruption. If only she could see our universities in Australia and their tainted bribe money from communist china, e.g., from the afterlife. I imagine she is well ensconced in the disincarnate afterlife now although who knows, maybe she is already someone's baby or little kid somewhere.


here are some of the amusing and affectionate terms of endearment my grandma has thrown at me: "rooster of the night", and"conquerer", ha, ha, ha. With such a great lady for a mother, there's no telling how my mom turned out so badly! Maybe she should have married the rich pharmacist when she was younger, we told her so!

weird dream

Janet Napolitano and I go 'fishing' at some rural lake in America. In fact, she has a little wooden boat there which needs a nut/bolt replaced, this device is actually holding the boat in place. It's hard work getting the nut loose. There are a lot of fish in the water, you can even take them by hand. She does something with her foot like she's trying to hit on me.


later there's a classroom in some obscure place in rural America, I'm thinking in my dream I'll write a letter on my blog to this particular county but then really don't know what county it is. Then at this location there is some movie star like Nichole kidman or someone like that (Napolitano and the lake are gone), and I start mocking the movie star, whoever it was for being too northern European like.


there was all kinds of other details but can't remember them, except the fish 🐟 were so multitudinous, if that's the right word, golden and what not. More tropical looking than freshwater.

U.S secretary of defense, Carter, accuses Iraqis of running away in Ramadi

could the real question be: Can the United states avoid a serious conventional war with china before 2050? How much would this war cost? Would they need to nuke Chinese cities? Should they seriously start focusing on missile defense for Alaska / California, etc. before china or north Korea can lob a nuke up that way (yes!), how would they go about promoting democracy in china after winning that war?


by the way, the little battle in tikrit, Iraq, the only new tactic to see come out of that is suicide bombing marching columns from above by jumping out an office window... Who is IS selling all of Syria's oil to and why aren't they being stopped? Won't they start sending in suicide bombers to Bagdad within the next few months, maybe that's where they want to go. What position will the pentagon take on that if they start looking like conquering Bagdad?

Mitt Romney was right, by jove!

remember Mitt Romney when he was just running for president not so long ago saying off the cuff remarks about young kids should try starting a business.... and the media was all like, oh how callous! how easy for that trillionaire to say! poor college students with their mounting debt! how are they going to start a business?

the guy was right! i'm taking his advice.... and i have unpaid college debt too! we got our hands on an absolutely killer spring roll recipe...... we went out and bought a deep frier styled pot with a drop in vat with holes in it to drain the oil and a cooker base which we just need to buy a gas tank for heating for that and we need to buy some other simple items like a 3 yard by 3 yard gazebo, a folding table or two, stock up on sweet and sour sauce, etc........off we go at $2.50 per roll......... it's really not so hard to start your own bidness - we will build it, they will come!

evil

just saw some English documentary on mega-brothels "paradise" in Germany, plus underage prostituting in medillin Columbia. Evil.


less evil, but also evil is eurovision, that Bruce Willis movie where Arnold Schwarzenegger tries to make a cumback with Sylvester Stallone. That was really evil. Michael Moore documentaries, evil. That tv show Castle: again, evil.


the good news? The Mormons. They're keeping it clean and decent. Prostitution and especially prostituting underage girls, especially the latter, super evil. 100% evil in the case of underage girls being groomed for prostitution. The Stallone / Willis / Schwarzenegger comeback movie, only 5.6% evil, but still evil. Castle, possibly only 3% evil parts, with 56% pure schmaltz, but still some unadulterated evil nevertheless. Michael Moore: 85% polyunsaturated fats. Fat shaming Michael Moore: Evil.

eurovision song contest

another toy from childhood: TV.... Caught many forgettable Eurovisions over the years but only found gold in Russian Finn's Kirka and his song Hengaillan.... To be honest, I'd rather spend a minute teabagging Willis and McFarlane than watch all of this year's eurovision. Caught one entry only, the Israeli kid nadav guedj's song.... Meh! Not blown away by it..... He won a national talent show, song contest in Israel, also heard his rendition of Halo.... Again, meh! Maybe he's a schmendrick, can't say.

toys

actually, that last idea doesn't much inspire to write anything about it, although it would be cool to go party one night with aforementioned two dudes............. actually the mood is to write about toys a little and the mind of a small child............ in bulgarian, 'toy' means 'he' so if you want to say toy you would actually say 'igra'......... don't speak much bulgarian these days, however, occasionally much talk to it my son a little.........did so earlier, about 14 hours or so ago to my kid in the car and he started slapping himself in the head a little, which is undesirable behavior that needs to be curbed.........also atypical for him, thankfully, it's not something he wants to do........ as a joke, to dismiss it, i started saying, 'ne! stiga!' which is bulgarian for, 'no, stop!' in a high pitched falsetto voice as if imitating his mother as she has often said this to him somewhat shrilly over the two short years of his life..........it's been a long-running joke between us for a while now, quite a few months for me to imitate her and say, 'ne! stiga!', when he is doing something naughty, and he always finds it very amusing and starts laughing wholeheartedly......... he probably notices his mother is a little dismayed by this send up too....... he found it very amusing again earlier, during said car ride, however, as his slapping behavior was only coaxed on by the opportunity for a laugh, hearing, 'ne, stiga!' a few more times, i had to flip over to very stern, commanding voice to get him to stop........unfortunately, he hates very stern, commanding voice and it always makes him start pouting as if in great emotional dismay........ i hate to do that to him but some behaviors have to be curbed..........

anyway, about toys.........with his toys, i try to recycle them a little bit, occasionally buying new ones and putting old ones away, also he will become very interested in a certain toy and then lose interest....... i'm also interested to download more games for his android tablet.......... he certainly likes i-phone games and using the tv controller and is becoming a real couch potato with his kids tv shows........

i recall as a kid having a big van toy and a jumbo jet toy in kindergarden which was my second year of school after pre-school....... i was never interested to play with them much and preferred to give the van to the kid i perceived as very popular.... everyone would follow him around and watch him play with the van and maybe he shared it with them, can't really remember.........another kid, maybe it was some kid called robert that was with me in pre-school the prior year, i'd give him my jet plane to play with........ generally pre-school was a lot better as we had finger-painting and a slippery slide and kindergarden was too focused on language work like constructing sentences with little kits we had which i didn't really like much and coloring in sheets that introduced roman letters one by one....... maybe one per week......... also in subsequent years like first grade i noticed a lot of the boys were really obsessed with marbles which i found somewhat childish....... i'm not sure what i was doing all that time during breaks when kids were playing with marbles but i can certainly understand why my boy is so happy now going to daycare three days a week as he is really enjoying the companionship and atmosphere there a lot it seems........ i was with him at daycare briefly on friday and he said, 'i want to play', which is his longest sentence so far i guess........ then i had to ask him later why he can talk at daycare but only seems to babble a lot at home...... anyway, i really want him to get a solid grounding in spanish language, even just comprehension without practicing speaking by age seven so that later on as a teenager, he can go do an exchange program in spain or peru or somewhere and learn spanish or just learn spanish anyhow, although it's easier as a teenager

i also mentioned the treehouse toy i had earlier on this blog and how surprised i was to see it again at some hypno-therapist's practice during some hyno-birthing classes taken over two years ago...... that was also a very cool toy that you don't see around a lot...... i also recall, mostly just from photos, having a very cool tricycle as a four year old........oh and my father wouldn't let me have a toy gun so i had to make an uzi-style machine gun just out of kinking a black tube and then hide it from my dad under my bed or somewhere and practice gunning people down when he wasn't around......... i was definitely very militant about the value of political assassinations as a four or five year old because i remember watching some news story about some african dictator like edi amin and asking my father why someone didn't just kill him.........looking back, i guess no-one in his country could get close enough to him, and really, these dictators do bring a lot of law and order to their crazy nations, saddam hussein being no exception to that rule, it definitely sucks balls that his regime was so big on torture and gassing kurds and stuff like that............ we actually have assyrians here in australia that were born and raised to a young age in saddam's iraq before somehow being able to on migrate to somewhere else like greece or somewhere, not sure how

treating of spanish language, a moment ago, it's a very mindblowing thing to realize that, 'estaba yo viendo', is homophonous to 'estaba lloviendo'......... of course that's only if you have a mind bent on linguistic analysis a lot of the time, otherwise it wouldn't be of much interest to you very likely

movie review: hostage (2005), BRUCE WILLIS

JUST caught about ten minutes of it and looking forward to the rest of it with gusto --- the scene with the initial hostage taking and shooting..... looks fantabulous! bravo bruce willis!

moments later....almost finished watching it.......... definitely better than stinking my finger up my butt and sniffing it after eating an excellent curry (good), but possibly not as good as sticking a gerbal up my butt and watching vanilla ice videoclips under a microscope (super-great)........ so pretty decent, entertaining movie

hey and that and the last posting vis-a-vie family guy has got me thinking about what my next post should be about, given that we'd forgotten, too, that bruce willis even existed for various years now....... so next posting, pending some other interesting event coming along like a monarch butterfly flittering about or viral doggie video online, should be about what an imaginary night out on the town in LA with bruce willis and seth mcfarlane would (or should) be like.........keep posted for that one, will have to sleep on it and ruminate a little! should be entertaining though

family guy

hey that reminds me too! you know what i'd really like? perhaps more than anything in the whole wide world? to turn on the tv in about five years time, after catching some spa-bath action at a resort, and see family guy cartoon come on the tv, and kind of a little spoof on that scene in 'dances with wolves' where 'wind in his hair' says goodbye to 'dances with wolves'..... and maybe some jokes about how it's hard to be friends with 'dances with wolves' because of he never returns power tools or has bad personal hygiene........ that's possibly all we need to feel happy five years hence

pen palin' megan kelly from fox news

howdy poops (that's shorthand for poople)

caught some TMZ today and was again struck by the idea that the cutesy voiceover guy with the goofy/funny voice sounded as if he could seriously be in a long term relationship with a gerbal.... then got to wondering if/how i could blog about that..........then got the idea later in the day, just a moment ago, after really not giving the matter any thought, that it might be interesting to start a new strand on this blog, 'pen palin' megan kelly from fox news', although, truth be told, might get boring and old after this post, we'll see how it goes........she did do a cute and funny whistling sound on her last show we caught, when questioning the millionaire guy with the funny hair, about his potential run for president, as an intimation to kookiness/craziness.... specifically asking, 'don't you have to be a little (insert cute/funny whistling sound signifying krazy/cooky) to run for president?'

anyhoo..... let the pen palin' begin:

dear pen pal:

imagine you are riding one of those unique and amazing round bicycles in manhattan that seat around eight cyclists, and it turns out one of the guys on the cycle is the goofy/funny voiceover guy from TMZ, you've heard rumors he is in a long term relationship with a gerbal, you consider asking him about it but then notice he is strapped with a glock pistol that looks like it could really be loaded, you reconsider.........do you go ahead and ask him anyway?

you're a subject of the king of spain, do you renounce your citizenship? if so, why? if not, imagine you bump into the king of spain by chance, while playing a game of lawn croquet in badajoz and he asks you for your last chocolate easter bunny which you've been looking forward to eating at the end of the game, do you give it to him? he is the king of spain, after all

you find out you're able to avoid paying 85% of your income in tax to the state of new york by getting a good tax lawyer a friend recommends, however your tax bill would still be 78% of your gross wage, a big part of this money would go to public services you find questionable......... would you move to a different state if it meant you could pay less in taxes, but that all of your taxes would go to saving the rainforests and none of them would go to public services of any kind which meant that lepers could accidentally cough their tongue onto your kid's breakfast on the subway?

imagine you just found out there's a special chocolate easter bunny that will make you fat, but which would temporarily give you formidable psycho-kinetic powers which you could use to fly a jumbo jet (there's nothing else handy) into an ant hive which is loaded full of ants carrying a harmless virus..........you learn that while the virus is harmless to earthlings, it is devastating to a certain planet's denizens millions of light years away...... furthermore, you learn that there is a less than 0.0001% chance (but still a definite chance all the same) that a wormhole will appear at the exact moment a strong wind opens up which could cause some of the ants to be blown across the wormhole and into aforementioned planet millions of light years away, obliterating their civilization which they had been developing for billions of years.......... do you eat the bunny?

you apply to join a snooty country club and are forced to answer all manner of silly questions made up by some kind of idiot psychologist you find out is really a grain farmer from mexico masquerading as a snooty psychologist after marrying rich, doing some quick research on your phone..... you also notice a chinese looking lady with the correct answers to all the questions...... you just want to join the country club asap before you have a potentially embarrassing bowel movement, so you can use their restroom, but you must pass their test before they'll let you use the restroom and you know the test is dopey because of doctor ricardo's questionable credentials...... do you offer the lady $50 to copy her cheatsheet?

you are in court prosecuting some kid you know is absolute scum for a certainty that belongs behind bars.... you look over at him and catch him lip-syncing 'bite me' at you, you look around but no-one else notices, the judge is busy eating doritos, what do you do?

you're on a train in india travelling comfortably in first class with a friend of a friend of a friend from your university years..... she is not at all impressed with indian culture and manifestly insists on referring to the indians as sand niggers, the ganges river as a stinking cesspool, far from sacred...... and their attitude to religion with their pantheon of Gods as a bunch of idol-worshiping whore-mongery...... what do you do? why?

you notice that a friend of yours has taken to carrying around three tennis balls in a cannister and takes them out occasionally and talks to them, he has even face-painted all of them and given them names like Marcus and Sigfried - not actually those names, but names like them....... it definitely strikes you as eccentric but apart from that your friend is gold and you have no reason for alarm however you are struck by a nagging feeling that maybe not everything is okay with him...... how do you broach the matter in a tactful way?

you notice your body has just been hit by a mack truck and has gone flying into a dunkin' donuts and realize that you've just had an unfortunate accident and are dead...... you are still completely conscious as usual but in a kind of dream like state not overly dissimilar from your normal day-to-day state, you almost have a dull pain of hunger and a vague recollection of the sound of a stomach rumbling, but realize it's just a hangover from being alive in a body...... anyway, you decide to go to pizza hut and find Odin is there visiting from Valhalla, Mohammed the prophet (peace be upon him) is also there and they are both remarking that Hindus are all a bunch of sand-niggers which strikes you as offensive and inappropriate/racist language and you would balk if any of your african-american friends were around as you assume they would never use the n word....... then you decide to see them in their homes and in the twinkling of an eye you are floating ethereally in the lounge-room of one of your best african-american friends who is a fine upstanding lawyer and are shocked to hear her using the n-word on the phone while talking to a friend........ then all of a sudden, you are staring up at a surgeon and hear the beep-beeping of hospital machines and see nurses buzzing about, there are lights above you and you're wearing unfashionable foot apparel, you realize you are back in your body and haven't died but are being miraculously resuscitated back to life through incredible luck and great surgery.... a few days later your african-american friend comes to visit and you remember what you saw but don't want to ask her if she uses the n-word so just try to say to her that you had a vision of her talking on the phone and you tell her what she was wearing, etc..... she is amazed and tells you she was talking to her uncle Delfrie on the phone in the Carribean...... do you raise the topic of the n-word with her?

for a while Mohatma Ghandi experimented with fasting and vegetarianism, self-abnegation, to the point where he could truly be called a fakir, in which case, would it be fair to say that his mother at this point was a mother fakir?

is Megan KELLY all there?

is her brain working right? Does she need some time off work? You had to hear her talking about police victim Freddy gray. Trying to make it about race (the offending cops were black anyway half of them). It was so ludicrous in an absurd Hollywood way, where absurdity for absurdity's sake rules the day. The guy died because he was flying around the back of a police van with his hands handcuffed, banging his head around. That's murder two. KELLY is just joking around and so are her producers, it's actually offensive! Someone could successfully sue her for it, no doubt.


fox news was having a reasonably good week too until this obnoxious foray into obscure impudence by Blondie and co. Tisk, tisk. You'd really expect better. Maybe she's unhinged? Go take a ride in the back of a police van while you're handcuffed cutie pie, see how you hold on at 50 miles an hour around a bend or two. Scurvy wench. Vehicular homicide and she wants to obscure that. Jesus.


now they're talking, after that horribly low point for KELLY who's normally nowhere near that bad, about iraq/syria. Isn't the obvious question: Why is ISIS being allowed to raise money from sale of Syria's oil reserves while Russia is under sanctions. It's absolutely ridiculous! Don't know the intricacies but is that ignorant sounding to ask that question? Why wouldn't they starve the ISIS of money unless Obama specifically blocks that avenue?

battles of ramadi 2004/2006/2015

lieutenant colonel whiffy

hey props to wikipedia for giving such up to date blow by blows of the battles in iraq since 2003.... it's kind of like going to china and finding the entire box set for a tv show you like and buying it and watching every single one of them..... can't wait to find out what happened in Tikrit and will keep you posted shortly..... looking at some of those u.s. incursions into Ramadi in 2004 and 2006..... it really reminds me of when i say to my son, 'what are you doing?' in a mock-incredulous and high-pitched and dumb sounding voice, which he always finds very amusing, but normally just use that for questionable situations.... a big no-no, like playing with the blinds would elicit something alot more annoyed sounding........ that's what i'm thinking as i read about the activities of the u.s. army in Ramadi in 2004/2006: what are you doing?.......   only because the entire population is so insanely hostile to them the whole time they are there, there's some tribal sheik they call a corrobborree with in 2006 that kind of gets them onside for a while...........

apparently all of anbar is predom sunni and the govt. in baghdad, shi-ite, has re-nigged on promises to cash/arm them and even has taken the trouble to arrest/kill some of their leaders, none of the anbar sunnis will trust the baghdad govt. after that for a few years.......... in dumbo tv land, what we notice is that we never see the iraqi president anymore, the guy that replaced Maliki, most westerners couldn't even tell you his name.........obviously, looking back, Bush's idea he couldn't get over was that they could have a functioning democracy there, all kinds of money got spent on that and you're just seeing it has spoilt the shi-ite baghdad govt's army as they are all corrupt and cannot win battles even with u.s. air support

it looks like the end game now is attacking baghdad over the next few years, for ISIS

i remember one time talking about it with my father and he was telling me that he could see all of the surrounding nations collapse to what i assumed he meant inner insurgencies....certainly he was right about that with regard to syria and iraq but we haven't seen iran or saudi arabia look seriously threatened although we did see some changes in govt. in libya and egypt.......... it would definitely be interesting to watch ISIS going forward under a four year Clinton presidency....... if Obama stayed president another eight years then i'd say they'd even conquer baghdad!

i predict ISIS will consolidate control in Ramadi, with their sure-fire, heavy-handed, brutal style of leadership (it'd be interesting to see the numbers of how many people they have actually crucified -- around a thousand, i'm guessing)....also the population in Ramadi aren't shi-ite anyway

what to blog about?

war in Iraq? Notes on religion? Saun Hannity championing paedophile rites? Definitely not much happening in the presidential race.... How about a story? Creative writing!


bobby, Johnny and sedrick, three kids that desperately needed to poop, but there was no restroom around, no toilet paper... Their struggle not to make a mess... Follow them through twelve nations and fifty time zones across mountains and valleys as they struggle to hold on... Go to a commercial


listen to some music, talk amongst yourselves
....there's actually an Elvis Costello version of this sleeper song! Clearly noone has dropped Costello and the people at Time magazine over Ramadi... Not too late though, ha ha

truth, power and glory in one great mozartian aria --- and south park maybe?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WARonxjhQxE


HEY BITCHES

caught some south park recently, apparently, the young people nowadays, get amorous between the opposite sexes by the men farting in the woman's vagina (her 'strange', as it were) and then the woman queefing (farting from the vagina, or 'strange') onto the man's face......... truly, the younger generations seem strange even at age 39 (minus 3 days)

what i wish is that the young people of today, when dating, or during their amorous sessions of farting and queefing, paid more mind to mozartian arias such as we find in the marriage of figaro's:   Vedrò mentr'io sospiro, Count Almaviva's aria from Le Nozze di Figaro 

what a thoroughly magnificent piece of music we have there, absolutely magnificent..... to do it justice, you need a very loud sound system, like in a car, or else something loud and strong as this is meant to be listened to loudly............

really, when referring to the evangelicals earlier like Falwell, et al, the most despicable thing about these people is that if you ask them to name their favorite aria from the marriage of figaro they are left blinking, reaching for their shotguns and kkk hoodies perhaps......... even the black peoples of the world, likewise are left clueless

it would be interesting if there actually existed universities capable of doing worthwhile studies in the areas of social sciences, for example, it would be interesting to poll the religious persuasions and opinions of people capable of playing classical music instruments proficiently

Vedrò mentr'io sospiro, Count Almaviva's aria from Le Nozze di Figaro

Hai già vinta la causa!                 "You've won the case already"!
Cosa sento?                             What do I hear?
In qual laccio cadea?                  What trap have I fallen into?
Perfidi! io voglio di tal modo punirvi, Scoundrels! I'll punish you in 
                                                            this way,
A piacer mio la sentenza sarà.         The decision will be how I want it.
Ma s'ei pagasse la vecchia pretendente? But if he pays off the old plaintiff?
Pagarla! In qual maniera?              Pay her! How?
E poi v'è Antonio    And then there's Antonio,
Che all'incognito Figaro ricusa  Who won't give his niece in
Di dare una nipote in matrimonio.    marriage to the nobody Figaro.
Coltivando l'orgoglio di questo     To nurture that lamebrain's pride...
  mentecatto.. 
Tutto giova a un raggiro...   Everything's useful for the plot...
Il colpo è fatto.      The deed is done.

Vedrò mentr'io sospiro                Shall I, while I'm sighing,
Felice un servo mio?                   See one of my servants happy?
E un ben che invan desio,             And the good thing I want in vain,
Ei posseder dovrà?                    Shall he have it?
Vedrò per man d'amore                 Shall I see the woman who woke in me
Unita a un vile oggetto                A feeling she doesn't have for me
Chi in me destò un affetto,           United to a vile object
Che per me poi non ha?                 By the hand of love?

Ah no! lasciar in pace               Ah no! I won't leave
Non vo' questo contento,              This happiness in peace,
Tu non nascesti, audace,             You weren't born, rash person,
Per dare a me tormento,               To torture me,
E forse ancor per ridere             And maybe to laugh
Di mia infelicità.                    At my unhappiness.
Già la speranza sola                 Now only the hope
delle vendette mie                    Of the revenges I'll have
Quest'anima consola,                  Consoles this soul
E giubilar mi fa.                     And makes me rejoice.

there was a pretty good show on fox news recently about an american frontiersman called kit carson from the wild west when america warred with mexico over california --- that was a good show!

bashing Hannity a little

you know it's common from christians of all stripes, with their general lack of belief in miracles and questionable ideas about science, whether they be segregationists like the family of imbecilic Falwells or whoever to condescendingly say to you, "I'll pray for you". In contradistinction, apparently, according to the moron Hannity, was Obama's preacher who was an angry black man by the sounds of it (I'm with Chris Mathews from msnbc on this one, if that Obama preacher guy was such a firebrand as Hannity says, probably his anger had very logical explanations due to hostility from the likes of Falwell and co).


here's my christian charity for you Hannity: I'm perfectly happy to post you some adhesive labels labelled 'moron' which you can use until you expire to answer census questions like: Language(s) spoken at home, religion, occupation, etc. Just let me know where to post them to.


isn't jeb bush married to a Mexican? Doesn't the kkk hate woppies as well as darkies? Shouldn't he address people sympathetic to interracial marriages who are the majority of Americans (although not the majority of all people on earth, more's the pity) and leave the kkk falwells to vote for Cruz if they want to? Wouldn't that make sense? Bush looks like an idiot pandering to these ratbag Falwell people. Better to go for a walk in the park hand in hand with another man like his brother George does with Saudi royalty. (holler Saudi royals! Gee I really feel like we share a lot in common - not!)

who was jerry falwell? a white anglo-supremacist bible bashing scumbag

didn't even know one thing about jerry falwell until just a few minutes ago..... turns out he's a scumbag........ presumably his offspring are scumbags too........ there's no good reason for politicians to go pandering to this scum......

let's look at george w bush for a moment......... he's a christian, right? doesn't turn the other cheek when you hit him, believes in some nonsense about an eternity in limbo then 1000 years skateboarding with Jesus until the anti-christ (obama or some other darky) comes along and has a wrastle with Jesus and ............. enough.... it's all bullshit

who hangs out with the scum of the earth saudi tyrant leadership? bush (w).......... i read chapters and chapters of a book on bin laden and bush's (w's) buddies are all cosying up to these four-wife-a-piece saudi douches just for a handout? go to the unemployment office if you want a handout -- handout panderers

jerry falwell has a track record of being an anglo-supremacist segregationist -- he belongs in tasmania or canberra.......... really --- what a disgrace.........what kind of american doesn't believe all men are created equal? jerry falwell.......... jerry falwell! this is what nietzsche was talking about when he said that he perceived all theologians as shifty and dishonorable..... jerry falwell is one of these shifty, dishonorables........fool! has the audacity to speak as if he's representing God (THE God!) he'll go to hell....... i guarantee if you could track his next twenty lifetimes over the next approximately three thousand years, you'd find he'll end up using anti-psychotic drugs sooner or later........madman............ this is what is meant in the gospels as someone having a 'demon' (psychotic/untrue belief) --- Falwell is riddled by them

fucking idiot imbecile....... if we keep having republican contenders pander to these nuts then Benji will have to endorse a Democrat............

these guys all make msnbc look sane and normal, believe me!  i can't believe i have to apologize now to Jimmy Carter for this arsehole Falwell making him and all the other anglo-white people out there like them look like total racist arseholes, this is not actually the case with Jimmy Carter who is an honorable man...... Falwell is a maximus ignoramus moronic imbecile........he'll definitely reincarnate as a black man in the not too distant future so as learn a thing or two about humanity ---- cretin mutt Falwells! goddam disgraceful scum of the Earth

really, if the FBI could eavesdrop and spy on Martin Luther King, you'd think they could do the same for all these millionaire false prophet 'evangelical' scum of the earth

oh and congrat to david cameron for his election victory in britain..... it's going to be interesting to see what happens now with this Scottish nationalist party having won 53 of 56 electoral seats in scotland, to see if they move again for another succession referendum........ it would seem unusual, after having just had one

jeb bush speaks, the case against republicans

do we really need another bush inside the white house? The case against republicans:


can't crazy arabs blow themselves up for a while? Or just lop off some heads like the kooky Saudis? Hasn't Obama proven, albeit with his healthcare baggage, that arabs can be trusted to blow themselves up and leave Americans alone after a thorough spate of attention from the pentagon over eight years under bush (w). Oh the poor suicidal soldiers, oh the orphaned children in Iraq and America! Saddam's gone and pot is legal, can we really trust another bush in the white house NOT to go to war in the middle east?


Steve Holland from associated press reports jeb bush is speaking at a Jerry falwell university trying to woo evangelists. Really? Are these terms indicative of realities? Falwell and evangelical and christian right? Aren't they all just a bunch of taxpayers clinging to guns and religion? Couldn't the Democrats just tax and spend five trillion dollars or so of their money and spend it on some magic beans? Maybe the debt inheritors of the future will make a fortune from the fee-fie-fo-fumbing giant up there!


isn't it the economy, stupid? Don't you end up feeling awkward at terms like christian right and evangelical? Oh well Jerry falwell came in his pants at church, you know, but he's not going to go to hell for that.


come on man


some republican needs to stand up and say: "You don't get to tax and spend seven trillion dollars just because you believe humans were evolved from monkeys but it's racist to say that about Michelle Obama".... Put your hands in the air and say that!


oh, I'm just not sure if yothu yindi is decidedly more Falwellian or christian rightist or evangelical because, you know, there's a case to be made for all three arguments. How many Jerry falwells can fit on the head of a needle. We're using Glenn Becky's faux dopey voice as we ask these questions

all rise, the honorable Benji in da house

ok, so caught some hollywood extra with Mario and the Thompson that looks like she doesn't cut herself...... they had some genius there who threw a faceload of sugar at some maroon 5 guy or someone like that, covering him in sugar, because he'd just sung his new song called: sugar..........also, recently he threw a rock at 'the rock'

clearly the guy is a genius and has massive potential that needs to be tapped.........here's my plan, mcfarlane, you get someone to bail him out from the county lock-up there in hollywood wherever, make sure (s)he's dressed like the mouth of sauron from lord of the rings...... have them collect him with a large, black limosine.... make sure there are two or three guys in phoney kind of looking white labcoats standing around watching, have them wear colorful basketball shoes............

if the sugar/rock thrower guy says anything the lines of:  'where can i collect my nazgul winged steed and ring of power from?'  or  'am i replacing the nazgul that was killed by the female viking lady?' then you know you have bankable genius, immediately put him to work writing for you thinking of more names for victims for your old man paedo character, e.g., cody, zak, etc.......

if he says something else like, 'you can't be the mouth of sauron, you don't even look anything like my mom,' you know you have a basketcase, have the labcoat guys drop him outside a mental hospital and give him $20 for a cab


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujC8s4MdsaI   (mouth of sauron sings take on me)

fox

news... Wasting time, making themselves irrelevant, peddling irrelevance by talking about Huckabee running for president. It's a fact that your humble correspondent, Benji, has more chance getting elected to the United states Congress, in this lifetime, than Huckabee has of being elected president. That's a fact. And that's no disrespect to Mr. Huckabee.


it's also worth mentioning, all these bible bashers that believe in the"second cumming" and the so-called resurrection are basically mentally ill and jokers.... It's more likely they believe everyone must have an English name


Scott Walker, I'm sure he's probably a great guy but he won't win and Rubio might be able to garner Hispanic votes same as Obama did with the black vote (14% Americans are black).... However personally, having English as a first Language, Spanish as a second, and not being Cuban, Rubio personally doesn't appeal to me much although he might go far, who knows.... Bush isn't getting many headlines, maybe the media doesn't want him getting attention


the fat guy Garrett that's Buddy of ray ramano mentioned recently.... He's a talentless and stupid fat person and I'm certain he would agree to that and that I can't even be said to be rude or mean to point such an obvious reality out.... It's amazing to think that by anglocizing his surname from Garfunkel or garthsteinerbloomfinkle or whatever it was, was his main career move. His insignificant attempts at comedy were as irrelevant as if he'd posted himself to some struggling African nation at the start of his career.... Obviously I mean all of that in the nicest possible way and wish him well in avoiding various forms of cancer or death from cholesterol


obviously, not being a chimpanzee farmer, couldn't tell you how to try to challenge chimps so wouldn't know how to challenge likes of fox news folks or Garrett.... Clearly o'dell is looking smarter this week than fox/garrett


alright bitches, that's all for now, remember: Maximus wins:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrnXLBlNGd8

hollywood watch

ok caught jamie foxx singing on ellen.... he does seem to be talented.... wouldn't believe you last week if you told me that he'd never skate a skateboard better than me but that appears to be the case now as i have magically morphed into a kickarse skateboarder out of nowhere miraculously........... oh and btw, me, me, me, me, me

o'dell will be interviewing him soon apparently....... also saw an interview quickly during commercials on another channel with some comedian i think his name is ray romano, he was talking about his 31 year old girlfriend and how he is 55 or something like that - come say hi to me buddy if i migrate (legally) to america one of these years, promise not to shoot you! haven't seen the tarantino movie with foxx as a cowboy although might watch it one day -- will let you know!

the guardian, tv series ran four years with australian actor simon baker or simon someone...... i have to tell you, i liked it, caught one episode today, wouldn't mind watching a few more, i think they made 63 in total - ran 2001-2004.......... good job........ it'd be interesting to hear him talk about how he maintains his relationships in australia while living in america and also his opinions on the australian thespian scene in general

common law -- they only made 12 episodes, around 3 years ago.... so it never made it but i caught an episode and thought it was just as good, or better, than the guardian, i really liked it!

more of the same

well it's almost as if hilary clinton has just read my last blog post, as she's come out talking about illegal immigration....... again, i'm not running for president, nor am i being paid to research the matters for any parties involved, so i wouldn't know that much about it..... still, my knowledge of united states government and history is better than most americans........... first of all, pretending as if the reader knows nothing about any of the issues.... let's start with the presidency.... it's an extremely powerful position, practically a moderate dictatorship.... there are some checks and balances, so that today's republican congress (comprising the upper house/senate and lower house/house of representatives) can effectively control any kind of new legislation being offered to the president for validation (most of which he will veto due to not agreeing with republicans)..........in other instances, the presidential 'executive orders' can be turned aside by the judicial system itself, as recently happened when a particular judge, somewhere in the south i think, like texas or florida, turned aside some aspect of one of obama's presidential orders as basically unconstitutional, i guess

certainly i would think that team bush and team fiorina (not fiorino) would have knowledgeable advisers like the dick guy you see on fox news talking to bill o'reilly alot or karl rove, that could give them exact information they need, for example, it's important for fiorina and bush to understand obama's exact position on immigration since 2009, especially given that hilary has just come out saying that she intends to continue his current position at the moment........fiorina would say she's untrustworthy due to whatever, preibus has just called her (clinton) a flip-flopper on immigration (he takes her to be a panderer for votes however)............but i'm somewhat certain, although again, as it's just a hobby of mine and i have more important things to worry about, still i'm somewhat certain that in the case of immigration, obama was a very shabby bastard if i can be permitted to say so (nothing personal, happens to the best of us i'm sure)....... again, i could be wrong about that, but i think you'll find that he was extremely zealous in deporting aliens (mostly hispanics) and breaking families apart around years three and four and thereabouts of his presidency, that's my understanding in fact...... so that his latest position, he only adopted when he saw he lost any democratic party influence in the congress in the last mid-term elections for the congress (which i think is the one fiorina lost)..... at which point he adopted a policy of 'nut!' (that's how we say 'no' in australia) when he saw he would effectively be a lame-duck for his last two years with republicans controlling the entire congress.......certainly it behooves teams bush and fiorina and any republican running like rubio or whoever to have exact numbers ready to recite regarding deportations, because i think you'll find what i just mentioned about obama is reasonably accurate...... predator drone deaths in pakistan/afghanistan also skyrocketed under obama, meanwhile the left-wing media were so happy about the social justice about having a black president they never really mentioned it much

this is an important issue......... being an 'established political class' politician, as fiorina puts it, will actually help jeb bush in this wise as the hispanic vote is very aware of his brother's presidency and will vote for him based on that.... in that respect it will be difficult for fiorina to beat bush

fiorina is really a quality candidate and it really just speaks to how far america is in respect to the rest of the world.......when bill o'reilly tells you that it's 'too late' for europe, he's absolutely right, but what he fails to mention is that it's 'too late' for everyone else..........even in a multi-racial society like australia, we still have a hopelessly nepotism-ridden english controlled government by a bunch of lying english people that pretend they are the only people without an ethnicity and that their ethnicity, in any case, is australian -- total liars -- australia is a perfect example of what NOT having a constitution can do to stupefy and weaken a nation on every level of organization

i was just watching the fiorina interview with brett baeir from fox news from a month ago or so regarding ISIS and she sounds like she would be pretty good at foreign policy too.........that's going to be a big deal

it will also be interesting to notice how the media tries to influence voter perception

a few strange memories for you..... one time i was watching tv with my father, maybe in the year
2000.... there was some story on australian news about a beetle that was just out of control eating
everything in its path and breeding like crazy and unstoppable..... i remember my father laughing
hard at that........another time, a few years later, maybe in 2004.... i was hanging out with my
buddy nichole from canada, somewhere either in china or south korea...... at one point we headed to
a u.s. air force base in gunsan, south korea, to hang out there one night at the base bar with all
the airpeople there...... do you remember seeing bush on letterman leading up to the 2001 election?
some lady got all up in his personal space so he cleaned his glasses on the hem of her blouse.....
that's classic bush........ that canadian, nicole, she was always dating u.s. forces guys from the
airforce or whatever in south korea... she was telling me one time how she went shopping with one
of them and the storeowner in south korea had a 'secret room' back of the store with extra
merchandise and how the u.s. army guy was all like 'secret room'???? incredulously.....
abstractions are interesting.........anyway, fiorina, she's on morning jo and the woman asks her,
'do you really think you're qualified to question her majesty, hilary? you lowly know nothing?' --
that's what the lady said to her......... fiorina comes back too serious, rattling off her career
track record.... that's like me telling you i lived with gangsters in downtown la half a year
instead of telling you what i just told you........ fiorina has to be bold like bush (george) and
just flip the question back to the morning jo lady: 'so who do you recommend is qualified to
question clinton then?'.........this is what i'm looking out for in a republican candidate

OTORGO

HOWDY partners..... today was a big day, wifi did her australian citizenship ceremony today and i recall checking the news and seeing carli fiorino is running for president in the u.s. too........ i'm interested in Fiorino and we'll get to that in a moment.......... we left the ceremony early, i'm guessing before everyone sang the national anthem..... since my wife doesn't know it i sang it for her in the car.... i tried to do it a second time but i couldn't sing it without being emotionally moved to tears, for some reason, not sure why......... it's a good song though..... i was talking to one of my taxi customers today, she was noticeably half australian aboriginal looking half european looking, turned out she was half scot half australian aboriginal.....she told me her grandmother was a 'comfort woman' for some important scottish guy in australia --- a 'comfort woman' being a euphemism for indentured sex slave i guess........... anyway, i thought it might be interesting to scan some images just now, so i did..... right after the ceremony we made a bee line to the post office to apply for Scarlet's australian passport.... and get an application for my wife too as she is now entitled to an australian passport as well.... i'll probably get alex and scarlet spanish passports soon too........... scarlet's passport photo, i got that taken about a week ago, it's real cute............ the sun just come out here in sydney after seemingly dissappearing behind clouds for about two weeks or more............

this first image is my bulgarian long term resident alien card from the bulgarian govt............

this is a californian driver's license i have........... i actually cheated on my theory test at the DMV in los angeles, but the lady monitoring the exam didn't see me checking my book, i couldn't figure out all the different signs in america so i just needed to cheat on that test

my resident alien card for the u.s.

scarlet's passport photo:

what me worry?

that's cute

so let's get down to u.s. presidential politics............remember in 2000 that picture of bush hitting a home run that his team put out........... that's really where my awareness of george w. bush as an existing entity started right there, with that image............ with fiorino, i'm getting to know her today over the internet just based on various interviews over the years.......... i like her.......... it's going to be interesting to see her debating with jeb bush.......i'll be looking forward to that..... i think she should read up on hilary clinton to make sure she knows as much about her as possible, not necessarily so that she can bash her in a debate, but just to know about her.......... i'm enjoying getting to learn about fiorino as i find her interesting............ i'm not interested to know more about hilary clinton, but if i were running against her in a race for president then i certainly would.........fiorino doesn't seem to have a position on foreign policy, from what i can see on the internet although i could be wrong but certainly it's not a salient enough position to feature prominently on youtube searches where it should be for a matter of public opinion............. it's a tough question......... but she'll have to say something about it eventually.......again, it will be very interesting to see what her and jeb bush have to say about foreign policy when the time comes for their debate.... it would be good to see tom brokaw run the debates, or maybe gwen eiffel or someone from jim lehrer news hour........ i definitely think jeb bush and carly fiorino will be the strongest republican contenders and that fiorino has somewhat of a chance......... i definitely think they'll both be running against hilary however it will also be interesting to see who else the democratic party can cough up as contenders instead of hilary

by the way, fiorino hasn't held any office, she ran against barbara boxer in california for the senate but never won, she works for the republican party --- her position, very valid and reasonably strong, is that the american political system doesn't need a 'professional class' of politicians.... her positions on legalized pot and big government bureaucracy are impeccable, she's even bold enough to refer to the federal government as corrupt..... she'll have to be ready to be very clear what she means by that when/if questioned about it, especially during debate time.........immigration is always a big challenge for america, burocrats, politicians, amish people, etc.....  if i were her i'd watch out for coming across like a know it all when it comes to how everything 'works' (the macro economy and suchlike - although to some extent she seems like she does have a pretty good idea)....... not sure her position yet on education and immigration.... i'd definitely vote for her if i had a fake voter i.d. card though, no question

riding a skateboard properly for the first time ever!

can you imagine never having been able to ride a skateboard properly and then jumping onto a new and different kind of skateboard (40 inch longboard) and riding like you've been riding your entire life????


I had that tremendous experience today! Just for a lark, jumped on a longboard at Kmart and astounded or at least was really surprised to be SWOOPING GRACEFULLY on my board!!! Of course I bought it, it's my wife's birthday present to me for may 16, ill be a whopping 39 years old


let me tell you, before I rocketed up to six feet tall around age fourteen and my legs got a little rickety at that point (nothing too serious).... I had excellent straight legs and was an extremely talented roller skater. For example, one time as a ten year old or so, with some older kids, we held on to the back of an ice cream van that was going from cul-de-sac to cul-de-sac, the van driver was annoyed and took off at around 40 miles an hour and we just rode along holding on to it with our roller skates on the street.... After going a little rickety (nothing too serious), I never could ride so well, although can still ride ice and roller skates and rollerblades.... Anyway, I am so thrilled to be swooping gracefully on four iddy biddy roller wheels again


I could never kick ride a board real well but my board, which I hearby dub SWOOPING GRACEFULLY: roll forward SWOOPING GRACEFULLY you are now an official and highly esteemed possession of the order of Benji....


my board is so comfy the way it rolls and rocks atop.it's wheels, it's very swivelly, not like a regular board... It's kind of shaped like a fish, wider at the head then narrowing towards the tail.... The way it bends and swivels on the board, I can't fall off! I can't believe the control I have on it, before today it was always a matter of when would I fall off a board... It's like a miracle! I feel like the crippled guy Jesus healed and he just walked off! Maybe Jesus did this for me coz I had been obsessing about him, or coz of my faith In Ellen DeGeneres and Nancy faghag Odell


anyway I'm so happy to be able to ride a skateboard for the first time in my life, ill end up making a little short film on it, ill even edit in odell barking in my movie


I missed out on this my entire teenage years coz I just couldn't ride a board at alll.... Probably just coz there were no longboards like the one I have now..... Happy happy joy joy!

smellin' degenerate

hoy poople...... that's hoy as in ahoy, not 'hoy' as in 'today' in spanish............. and poople as in poople

ellen degenerate.... love her or hate her, you have to admit she has a hard working team of ladies,  and gay  guys working for her

anyhoo, those writers (like zolla) and producers and researchers are busy, busy, busy! they have to sort through funny prom photos from the 1970s, and sort through adorable kiddy pictures for all the moms at home addicted to zanax (and zoloft)......... there are bookings to be made, gags to write, etc

they're too busy finding out what  beaver from leave it to beaver's grandkids look like to do anything much for themselves apart from sipping on the occasional latte

that's why benji thought it might be cute and adorable to find out what some of ellen's staff's former high school teachers are up to these days.....

here's zolla's high school math teacher..... zolla took remedial math

it was hard tracking mr rodriguez down! but with some help from some connections in high places, we finally found it he was deported back to mexico in 1982! now he operates a street vending food operation in mexico city (that's his son in the photo)

remember the homeless guy, freddy? the guy that comes up with all the kooky ideas on the show like hiding a clown in a flower pot next to the hollywood guests? well guess where his high school science teacher ended up? Jail? N-O! six foot under!

who can forget the writer that can actually can hold a pen and write real words, Casey! here's her high school drama teacher Miss Sum:

yes, she's a crackhead

what a hoot and a holler, right?

remember old van winklestein? the guy that does odd jobs around backstage? whatever happened to his old gym teacher?

he was brutally raped and disemboweled while holidaying at the Taj Majal in India!

Well wasn't that a barrel of laughs?!


It's always great to see an old face from the past!  mostly, ummmm................
