I heard about a judge who sentenced some teenagers for Disturbing The Peace~ I'm pretty sure they had been driving boom-box trucks, pissing everyone off~ well, the judge sentenced them to sit quietly, without laughing or cutting up, and to listen to Wayne Newton, Lawrence Welk, Country and Western records, and other music of the judge's selection at VERY HIGH VOLUME for several Saturday afternoons. Anyone who didn't sit perfectly still was charged with Contempt of Court, and as punishment for that was sentenced to hear "The Barney Song", over and over and over and over.

I'm voting for Dr. Laura. I listened to her for about 10 minutes one time, and felt like somebody oughtta slap her. Tim Leary is up there close to the top of my list, he ruined a few lives...the young woman at the fast food place who has never once gotten my order right, so many times that I have checked it before I drive away 5 times and she still has not gotten it right one time, that dog that bit your car for sure, and his owner, that bird that went foo foo on my head, those people on TV that say "27 people dead, more deaths after this message..." and smile, all pieces of useless plastic that cost ten bucks and make kids scream until they get one, and young fellows that feel the overpowering need for me to hear their nasty non-music at 140 d with my car windows rolled up.

I must admit I don't believe in a devil. I'm convinced he/she/it was invented so ordinary priests could explain their lapses of good judgement. Like that evangelist dude that got busted with a prostitute some years back. He blamed the devil. That cracked me up. He'll keep doing it until he figures out whose fault it really is.

Remember, you started this, so at some point you have to tell me a funny story.

>>>>>I kind of like that phrase "demonic parentage." It sounds....special.

Lots of people just have parents.<<<<<

Oh-oh, someone's carefully constructed persona as Left-coast laid-back dude is starting to shift, just a little. We see the iron inside the velvet glove, the claws sheathed in the velvet paws. Yow!
