Because this is the catchiest, nastiest song from The Headphone Masterpiece. And because I might need a drunken excuse to sing the lyrics: "Push my seed somewhere deep in her chest, I push it naked cuz I've taken the test."

“Right, so why not wait for the appropriate time?”
I feel as though I should apologize for all the Letterman clips this week, but he keeps making me laugh. And why would I pass on another opportunity to make Rod look stupid?
“I was in first class.”
It takes Steve Martin and Dave Letterman to finally bring the funny to the Hudson River plane landing.

Trawlin’ for scrap, suburban-style
Treasure hunter by Les Chatfield (Elsie esq.)
This past year I was given one of the strangest gifts I’ve received in quite some time, and the the more I think about it the more it makes me smile.
My folks gave me a metal detector. You know, the kind you use on the beach to find buried treasure.
Except I don’t live anywhere near a beach, and I’m pretty sure there isn’t any treasure other than very old manure in my cow-pasture-turned-yard.
But here’s the thing: I’m keeping it. And I keep looking for a reason to use it.
Because these are tough times we’re living in, dawg, and you never know when you’re going to want to trawl the neighborhood for scrap.

“They’re going to throw me out anyway, who cares!”
My governor Blago The Mouth, clearly miserable over his political future.
Not sure he could be any more of a train wreck.

Make a museum
My daughter claims she wants to be an artist, and decided (all on her own) that she wanted to create a museum featuring her favorite "cruisers" (her word for art projects) that she had made in the past year.
So she went through the archives, selected a bunch of her favorites, and we decided to take the idea seriously. We all dressed for the occasion, hung the art in the living room, invited Grandma and Grandpa Morrow, served appetizers and champagne, etc.
It was a full weekend project, but we all had a blast.
She was so proud of herself.
Not to pat ourselves on the back, but here’s the thing I learned: if you have kids, and they are enthusiastic about something (anything), take the time and effort to really honor it.
It wasn’t convenient, and it wasn’t my first choice of how to spend last weekend, but it made my daughter absolutely shine with pride, and her interest in “being an artist” has grown even brighter.
And if you don’t have kids, what are you enthusiastic about? What can you make the time to honor for yourself? What’s your museum?
PS—I decided to try Animoto to make a quick montage of some of the pictures. It’s too short (you only get 30 seconds for free), but kinda nifty.
The Force is strong in this one
I think we’ve found the theme for the reelection campaign in 2012 (unless we are, in fact, battling the Mayan end of the world that year).
And if Shepard Fairey gets a hold of it:
