Win On Diagonals

it’s this little strumpet that get’s my goat

Frosty Puff, a warm-hearted girl from icy-cold Niceland, was one of these new foreign friends. Although it is not obvious by her cold-weather appearance and attire, Frosty Puff’s scent is that of Blackberries, a first in the American Strawberry Shortcake line.

It’s a good thing we got a fighter on the left…or a well spoken liberal….right…you can list a myriad of ever more meaningless, watered down set of words, vague descriptions, and even the most tepid of such an ilk will hardly apply to Mr. O-me-do what HARD Right say…cause I’m a deal maker…a deal maker…that’s what we got…like that nubby little sychophant you might have worked with but couldn’t stomach the he did ‘business.’

The President, though supposedly a constitutional expert and though sworn to “preserve, protect and defend” the Constitution, will not say this. Instead he appears to treat the Constitution as an optional matter, to which he will not resort, in the hope that by negotiating with the hostage- takers he can reach some reasonable outcome that will preserve everyone’s good name. When ‘reasonable outcome’ means charging with elephantine steps towards a third world system of ENSURING CLASS INEQUALITY….Bring out the honest unreasonable people that are willing to stand up to those that insist that following Markets or ‘the Market’ oh great one! (great cover word of incredible vagueness and then some) is a cover for allowing increased legitimacy for oligopolies, unfair labor practices, hiked up rates, discrimination, the good old boy network, suffering, reliance on institutions that get their mandate from imaginary beings, or beings at the least that have shown little interest in our well being, and much more under such a sharkish rubric.

(The great Harvard legal scholar Laurence Tribe recently argued that the President cannot defy the debt ceiling on his own.) That’s a debatable point.) It is as though Lincoln in 1861 faced with the siege of Sumter had sat down with Confederate commissioners to see what could be worked out.

Back from Wisconsin! What a great four day trip with Captain Tom. I even got my haircut in Milwaukee. A life time dream!

Don’t ever rule out a trip to Wisconsin in July with a great friend with no real agenda or set of expectations. You might just experience a hard to match or come down state of ebullience. Captain Tom and I flew you to Milwaukee this past Thursday. Part of our mission was to get film footage ‘on location’ for the latter half of a film idea we have called “Tom and Dom’s Hard Birch Beer.”  I won’t write about this little sure-to-be-gem here (terrified of purloiner(s)! We were heavily relying on the friendliness of strangers (no shortage in Milwaukee, and that goes for Madison) for assistance with our film. We met Nick from Bushwick on our Airtrans flight, and acted and filmed for us. He’s in the film industry (not sure exactly what he does) and was enthusiastic about our idea.

I went to see the Brewers play the Reds and Miller Field (had great seats eight rows a bit behind 1st base and Prince Fielder) The crew one, and the game was exciting. Miller Field was not a classic stadium experience by any means (built in 2001, and very family friendly—multi-purposed and so forth, but really nice. It was amazing to see the amount of tailgating going on—on a Thursday night mid season game! Holy shit! There were people smashed, grilling their brats and dogs, playing volley ball, listening to tunes, chilling. I’m a bit wiped (shouldn’t have had that last gin an tonic at 2 Am yesterday, knowing we had to drive from Madison back to Milwaukee to catch our flight home early this morning!

I’m fried. I’m DJ Pillow Neck. I start Volleyball Tuesday (LIVA League) at Robert Moses (WOO!)
