So…the powers-that-be here in Nevada have given the O.K. to open up the first-ever, all-male brothel.Aye caramba!
Almost every dude I talk to says he wants to apply for a job there.Do y’all think I should break the news to ‘em that 99.9% of the customers at this “Dude Ranch” are gonna be other dudes and that the 0.1% of the customers that are women are gonna be hella nasty?Yeah, you’re right.Better they find out for themselves.
Maybe the "Fruit of the Boom" guy can get a job there after he gets outta jail, since his bomb didn’t go off and blow his junk to smithereens.Just a thought.
You might have never heard of Tsutomu Yamaguchi.To some…he’s the luckiest man in the world.To others…the unluckiest man in the world.You see, Yamaguchi was the only certified survivor of the atomic bombings of both Hiroshima and Nagasaki.Talk about a pretty fucked up week.Aye caramba!
Yamaguchi died Tuesday.He was 93 years old.So, in his honor…a PTB haiku.Sleep well brother.
We wanna welcome in the '10s on a positive note. I know, I know...who kidnapped pj and replaced him with a pod person? HAW! This one is for all y'all stuck in the middle of a cold-assed snowy winter. No worries...springtime is on the way. Enjoy.
I was gonna spend lots and Lots and LOTS of time today rambling on about what a mess Chimp-Dick made out of things but I wanna keep things light.Today, I just wanna kick this fucked up decade to the curb and start a new one.After all, it can't be as bad as the last one.Can it?
Tighty-righties, tinfoil hat wearin’ loonies and teabaggers alike had collective conniptions.“Obama is soft on terror,” they said.“We need more security at airports,” they whined.And on…and on…and on.Here’s what they don’t get: Airplanes, in the first place, aren’t totally safe.If God had wanted man to fly, he’d have given him some sort of wing-like appendage.Secondly, airports and airplanes should be the least of our worries.Why?
Americans have this pompous sense of superiority over peoples of other nations.“We’re smarter, we’re better, and by golly, we love ourselves,” we say.And that’s the problem.While Dick “Dr. Evil” Cheney and Tom “Over the” Ridge and their ilk piss and moan about airport security, the REAL terrorists are planning their next attack and it isn’t gonna be in an airport or on a plane.Too much security…too much hassle….been there, done that.No, terrorists hit you where you’re most vulnerable and when you least expect it.That’s why they call it terrorism.
So, while republican hacks try to score points with the voting public by vilifying Janet Napolitano and Barry-O and scaring the bejeezus out of the flying American public, the bad guys are gonna pop us while we’re not looking.It might be in a shopping mall, it might be on a bus or a train.But it won't be at an airport…because that’s exactly where we expect them to be.SHEESH!Americans…we think we’re so smart.Too bad we’re not.
Pickling The Beast is rants, ramblings and thought burbles spewed from the brain pan of pj Connolly. If you're sensitive, thin-skinned or easily offended...get to clickin' the hell outta here. Otherwise, enjoy.
The truth shall set you free...then it'll come back to bite you in the ass and make you pay.
