Kiss Sunday on both cheeks, then sneak out the back, and come CAPTION!!!!


W. talking to his official biographer as they walk: "Well, Chet, since no one would give me one, I've decided on my own legacy. I figure I'll be known as The Povisitist President. No matter how dark things got, I perked up even brighter. Hell, a deficit wass just a surplus upside down to my way of looking, and an unnecessary war is simply peace in disguise. Eveybody knows that. No, . . . no matter how ugly things got, I just refused to see them like that. You might say I've just making lemonade out of roadkill my whole life. Yeah, that's a good image. Write that one down."

3. I can't help it. I've got channeling clairvoyance. Can't stop these voices in my head.
It sounds like a cartoon barnyard on steroids during a quake, excepted they're all armed as well: AK47s, chainsaws, penknives, flamethrowers, boiling enemas. . . yikes!!!!!

11. You edited for subject verb agreement?
When captioning the "Our children is learning" former president?

Why?

or have anyone think I'm a freeper

And I just defended my masters research and feel I need to live up to that distinguished degree, at least for while. I'm still pinching myself over it. Damn.

out the type of mash one finds in W.'s mouth to speak for itself is fitting, sometimes it drains juice from the punch, or slackens the idea's melodic energy.


Catshrink, congratulations on the M.A.!!! (My ex-ex-father-in-law told me it was the union card into the profession.)

5. I like mincing about the good old days in the White House.
Ah was a war president for awhile, then Ah became a peace president. Kinda like that book by, uh, the, uh, ToyStory fella. Funny thing in college my nickname was Buzz Lighthead, just like that, uh, guy in the book. Thing was I could cheerlead like a muthafuh....oops don't want the kids reading this to think I talk like that. Why don't ya make a whole chapter outta this. Karen'll help ya. She's good like that,making me appear manly and all, always saying, "Mr. President, why don't you strap on a pair and stop wallowing in your own vomit long enough to realize the 'Murican people actually buy that tough guy bullshit". Heh. (long pause) Ya think it's lunch time yet?

Well, I got to really love my briefings. At first they kept me from paying attention to box scores and batting averages and stuff in the paper, but after a while I got to really like a cup of joe and hearing about the secret stuff and weapons and psyche-ops. Gee. That was great. One minute, I'd be with Rambo with strange birds wheeling about our heads in a jungle and the next I'd be on a ham radio in freezing basement in Siberia. With a little imagination, it was better than the Sunday funnies. And the helicopter rides. Wow!!! They never, but NEVER got boring!! I'd take along a book but hell, most of the times the crayons would stay in their box. Especially during the day when there was something to see. Oh, and then guy who would follow me all around with the football (that's the red telephone, you know?). We got to be friends and he'd let me know when I forgot to zip my fly or if I'd accidently-on-purpose stuffed too much desert-for-later-in-a-napkin down my pants. Oh, and then . . . Geez, Chet, you ask some hard ones!)
