I started a new thread with a nifty site called Muckety.com where you can explore the connections between individuals, organizations, locations, etc. It seemed too good to keep to just ourselves.

I tried quite a few names and I only scratched the surface. Some of the names I ran were Harlan Crow (the Google search that let me hit the site to begin with), Bill Gates (III), Dick Cheney, Rupert Murdoch, Bob Dylan, Bill Clinton, and when you click on any of the links this site maps it they rearrange themselves. You can get the names of folks who rent apartments in the building where Murdoch, lives, etc. It's like following a Google map of people and places.

MOM wants to know if one of you boys will dig the hammock out of the attic and put it up on the screened-in porch. There's so much hot air in the house she thinks sleeping outside might be more comfortable.

Or standing on a peak in Darien
Our Gluon views the measured World of Man
Stretched there ahead, as far as he can see;
Reflecting, lifts his off-hind leg to pee.

More things than even Gluon sees,
More than in Rapaires glib philosophies,
More than in Bush's anal-cranial impaction,
Are the far ranges of pure thought in action.

Thus stranger be warned, upon a like high hill,
As you survey the World, in raiment shrill,
Shining like gossamer sunlight on a pond;
And think--oh, think!--of what's beyond!

I wonder, -- How Old Rapaire may express
Wonder like Amos, when thro' the wilderness
    Where Gluon stood, thinking his/her tail to chase,
s/he meets some Legion crude, and stops to guess.

The lone and level sands stretch far away.

It was easy as breathing helium, in light of the fact that my own book is close to five years overdue. Don't tell Rapaire or there will be Hell to pay, or some other fictitious quantity of stuff.

So the book boy was banned, and his fate was pathetic:
He was tied up and burned, at the stake, as heretic!
But as the flames rose, sir, there came a halooo:
The book boy still yelling, "Your book's overdue!"

Rapire said:Now I am shunned, excommunicated, branded heretical, cussed out, and my morals, ethics, spirituality, and probable destination in any afterlife have been roundly and completely discussed ad nauseam

Business as usual, then.

There it was, sitting right out in front of God and everybody, surrounded by a ecumenical coterie of priests, bishops, rabbis, vicars, prelates, pastors, sextons, and umbrella-wielding Anglo-Irish fatwahs all of whom were denigrating and deriding the Gospel and the FSM, right there is good old quasi-Catholic Ireland.

But I bought it.

Now I am shunned, excommunicated, branded heretical, cussed out, and my morals, ethics, spirituality, and probable destination in any afterlife have been roundly and completely discussed ad nauseam.]

I'm proud of me, for as Mark Twain said, "Heaven for the climate and Hell for the company."

Mint juleps with a sprig of "Wild Mountain Time" instead of mint. At least that's what she calls the garnish. I think that the Rastas call it something else.

The NKVD had something like that for "special prisoners", but I really really don't want to discuss it. PM me if you feel the need to know the details. That way Mom won't be all upset and feel the need to sit down, fan herself, and have yet another mint julep.

Same thing with Billy Clinton back in 98 I believe, and those Peter Puff-Up Pecker inflatables in the SLick Willy limited edition. ABout a hundred thousand of them flew off the shelves into the hands of impassioned female voters before the guys in dark suits started showing up at every F Street Bookstore int he country and cleaning out the inventory.

There was a lawsuit by the entrepreneurs, but it got hushed up, and I believe they ended up with ambassadorships to two small central European countries.

By the way, something just occurred to me. You remember how for the past 10 years or so I was trying desperately to secure one of those Hillary Clinton inflatable dolls, but couldn't find one anywhere? Not even on Ebay?

Well, it seems that someone bought them all up...all the remaining ones of which there were very few...yes, someone bought them up at a fantastic price...and had them all destroyed.

Now you know why Hillary's 2008 campaign went so far into debt.

Amos, I'm getting closer on the Shatner thing. I spoke to him briefly today, and he's showing some curiosity. I explained how you are a legend in your area and all that...he said he might be able to spare some time in July or August.

Welcome to Wonderland,
Wonderful Wonderland!
Wonderland's wonderful,
As you can see.

Noone in Wonderland
Tries much to understand
WHich things are real and which
Just fantasy!

People in Wonderland
Dance on the moonlit strand
Hearing the mermaids call
Out from the sea.

Rainbows and pixie bands
Speaking from Wonderland
Gaily inform of us of
Conspiracies.

Welcome to Wonderland
Wonderful wonderland
Wonderland's wonderful
As we all know.

Once you're in Wonderland
Leprechauns take your hand
Anything you want to
Fairies will show

Anything's possible
Everything's plausible
Quite Santa Clausible
When you are there.

Numbers are very few,
Facts never bother you,
Losses forgotten and
Sorrows are rare.

Welcome to WOnderland
Wonderful Wonderland
Wonderland's wonderful,
You know it's true!

Welcome wot Wonderland
Wonderful Wonderland
It is the one perfect
Haven for you!
