Vol. 1, No. 42 |
CRITIC'S CORNER: Michelle Pfeiffer
... remember that name ... it goes with a whiny, high-pitched,
hair-fixin' actress that seems to be in a lot o' movies
... I had the pleasure of watchin' one o' her flicks last
night ... after #7's nail-bitin' win on his march to the
championship game this Saturday ... it was called "Dangerous
Minds" ... now there're some people I know ... campin'
circle ... Entertainment Book group ... who're teachers
... some in areas close to an inner city type environment
... I think they oughta make that movie required viewin'
for all teachers! ... like how hard can it be?!?! ...
make some copies o' Bob Dylan's songs ... get a bag o'
candy bars ... bingo ... in a couple o' days you can have
'em eatin' outta your hands! ... I don't know why all
the teachers in the country aren't followin' her lead
... we could revolutionize learnin' ... makes James Bond
look like reality ... boo hiss.

SPEAKIN' O' FANTASIES: There's
the guy in Texas who's declared that he's the head of
the Republic Of Texas ... claims that Texas was illegally
annexed into the Union ... he's on some land near Fort
Davis ... got 'im a fax machine ... an Internet connection
... all I can say is more power to 'im ... we used to
live an hour north of Fort Davis ... we may even have
visited the "resort" area he's livin' in ...
they had reconstructed the Fort 'n had some great tours
... it was the home of the Buffalo Soldiers ... we prob'ly
toured it a couple o' times ... anyway ... this gentleman's
very ambitious ... jes' goes to show what livin' in that
rarefied atmosphere can do to ya! ... so far the authorities
feel like he's incarcerated himself so they don't have
any plans o' messin' with him.

FASHIONABLE: It's springtime
in Paris ... all the designers are tantalizin' us with
their latest designs ... seems like the plumbin' profession
was way ahead of the times ... butt-cracks are in! ...
it's the latest form of cleavage that the designers are
tryin' to exploit ... 'n as skinny as some o' those models
are that's prob'ly the only cleavage they could scrape
up ... I'm jes' waitin' for 'em to get back to the Victorian
days ... when portly was in ... show some designs with
belly cleavage ... that wrinkle that develops when ya
put on those jeans that used to fit a few years ago ...
that leave serious lookin' red creases in your waist when
ya' finally give in 'n switch to sweats ... so ya can
breathe ... not that I have any o' those ... no siree
... why if it wasn't for havin' to wax my whole body to
get rid of all the hair I'd be travelin' from city to
city competin' in Body Building shows ... a little Crisco
to oil me down ... like a potato ready for the oven ...
a strip of bacon instead of a weight belt ... the muscle
definition's great ... 'specially after winter ... my
jaw muscles are well defined ... my forearms only need
a little more shapin' ... I'll practice some arm curls
this comin' Monday ... St. Patty's day ... y'all don't
forget now ... I guess it won't be quite the same this
year ... since I gave up drinkin' green beer for Lent.

"The split personality of
Spring, the Sun coaxing the trees to blossom while the
frosty night air tries to freeze the tender buds, is like
when you try to get your dog to come to you by offering
a treat so you can beat them with a rolled up newspaper
for doing their business on the carpet." -- Mikey,
Thinkin' Too Hard
