No donuts for this girl - I think that I can qualify just as I am, while I can still fit into my clothes! I've got a couple of dresses suitable for the floozie bit and one of them actually cost less than three dollars at Goodwill.

Bring on the feathers!

Listen, you jack-booted union-busting plutocrat scab, I am supposed to be the Flooziemeister! If you want to do it, go ahead, but I'll have the International Brotherhood and Sisterhood of Flooziemeisters (IBASOF) on you before you can say, "Taft-Hartley injunction!"

Goodbye, master, I must leave you,
Something tells me I must go,
For you know I can't deceive you,
Going wage is too darn low.
Yes, you say that you will lead me
If I chop that hardwood cord;
Do not to temptation lead me,
I'm not toiling for my board.

If I work for bread and lodging
While the sun is high and warm,
It would cause me sundry dodging
Through the winter's cold and storm.
I must have the all that's in it
In the labor that I sell;
For you cannot tell what minute
It may start to rain like hell.

One more question, boss, one only --
As you count your wealth untold,
Would you have me save bologna
'Gainst the day when I am old ?
Now we understand each other,
(As we play the game of grab)
But, please do recall, "my brother",
I'm too old to be a scab.

Arise, you prisoners of starvation
Arise, you wretched of the earth
For justice thunders condemnation
A better world's in birth.
No more tradition's chains shall bind us.
Arise you slaves, no more in thrall!
The earth shall rise on new foundations.
We have been naught, we shall be all.
T'is the final conflict
Let each stand in his place.
The international working class
Shall be the human race.
The international working class
Shall be the human race.

Nope, it's too late. Bobert has to be his own Flooziemeister so he can learn not to crush the souls of the working class under his iron heel.

Instead, I'll do an informational picketing of Bobert.

Hardly. I'm fighting to make life better for floozies and flooziemeisters everywhere!

There once was a floozie maid
And she never was afraid
Of bluesmen's wrath or a sometime bath
And G-String Men who came to raid....

"This is my rifle and this is my gun
This is for killing and this is for fun."

            --Old US Army Nursery Rhyme

Besides, it's too difficult to fly with a firearm. I think I'll bring my sword. It's fit for a dashing hero...although the history of of my home state of Illinois and the history of where I now live, Idaho, explosives and bombs might be more appropriate. Big Bill Hayward, Joe Hill, the Haymarket explosion....

In an anarchist's garret, so lowly and so mean
Oh, smell the pungent odor of nitro-glycerine.
They're busy making fuses, and filling cans with nails
And the little Mudcat children set up this mournful wail.

"Oh, its Sister Janie's turn to throw the bomb;
The last one it was thrown by brother Amos.
Poor MOAB's aim is bad and the cops they all know Lead,
So it's Sister Janie's turn to throw the bomb."

Bobert, how's about if I bring a blues harp? We could jam on that. Mind you, I don't have a clue about how to play one....

You should know that I'm flying out with my WIFE, who will not be very far away (although not at Getaway). And SHE has a law degree and isn't afraid to use it....
