Fatwa Arbuckle: Misanthropologist

Jowly, Wattled, Middle-Aged Guy Caturday Greetings, GN!

Phew! What a week, both work-wise and news-wise.

So we may be able to have a few people over on Independence Day…outside. Depending on the whims of Demented Uncle Choo-Choo’s string-pullers. Wow…that’s awesome!

Olive America!!1!

Where you’re as free as elected and appointed filth, faceless bureaucrats and “Karens” and “Chads” will permit. How proud our Founders must be of us!

=====================

We’re off to have lunch with MamaK today…roadtrip! It’ll be nice to see here; just wish it was a shorter commute.

An excerpt from Zappa’s “Brown Shoes Don’t Make It” (arguably the world’s first “rock operetta” released in 1967):

A world of secret hungers

Perverting the men who make your laws

Every desire is hidden away

In a drawer in a desk

By a naugahyde chair

On a rug where they walk and drool

Past the girls in the office

This brought to mind Zappa’s I’m the Slime and if you replace “teevee” with teh internet or social media, it is very apt today.

I am gross and perverted
Im obsessed n deranged
I have existed for years
But very little had changed
I am the tool of the government
And industry too
For I am destined to rule
And regulate you

I may be vile and pernicious
But you can’t look away
I make you think Im delicious
With the stuff that I say
I am the best you can get
Have you guessed me yet?
I am the slime oozin out
From your tv set

You will obey me while I lead you
And eat the garbage that I feed you
Until the day that we don’t need you
Don’t got for help…no one will heed you
Your mind is totally controlled
It has been stuffed into my mold
And you will do as you are told
Until the rights to you are sold

Happy Caturday -- now with fewer cats! -- Gerbil Nation!
Good morning, Fatwa, and Sven!

It’s another beautiful day in the People’s Paradise (but cold), where the government will release my county from the strictest of restrictions tomorrow. I’d kiss their feet, but social distancing must be maintained.

Fatwa -- enjoy your roadtrip and your visit.

Mrs. Paddy, Teh Younger, Teh Older, Teh Older’s SO, and I are driving out to Temecula later today for some wine tasting. It’ll be the last time before Teh Younger leaves the state and before Teh Older’s SO also moves out of state.

Enjoy the day, Paddy. And safe travels to Teh Younger when he heads east and south. Speaking of heading east…

Naw, just the normal number. He’s been in tom cat mode the last two months, but is allowing some house cat to intrude the last couple of days and hanging with us. He’s an odd one, but not bad looking. For a cat.
