You mean SLOTH day, Kamesy. SLOTH day. How long will the tyranny of socialized R&R destroy our magnificent nation? I just heard that Satan actually encouraged his minions to take naps and play with their kids. The evil bastard.
As usual, I did the right thing and told my angels over my morning pedicure that if anyone slacked off today, I'd cut off their vision and dental. But then Archangel Michael reminded me that I had already done that to everyone last Sloth Day because I was totally coked out of my mind and it seemed like a great way to fuck with those nerds. So, I'll be reinstating my angels' vision and dental later this evening just so I can cut them again tomorrow morning. Fighting communism is a 24/7 job.
@Banjo-Sea Kitten: Vague recollection of the days when the telethon was an almost all-New York affair, Jerry was happy to break into 7 figures and every $5 donation seemed so important.
@snugbug: Ha. They were epic. I'll be around. If anything breaks, I'm sure I'll be on it, too. But yes! We can play here. Maybe Ian'll join us, who knows.
Also, don't forget this Alaska guy's blog: [www.themudflats.net] and his twitter: [twitter.com] His server has been going nuts, so he's limiting comments.
BREAKING NEWS: Mr. Hippity endorses unhealthy nitrate-filled meats and dangerous combustible toys. Handlers wonder how this will impact his future in national politics.
@Richard Petty Bourgeoisie: Yeah, right. Bourbon, then beer. Full booze report from day off: two flights of small-batch bourbons, a growler of beer, three jack and cokes. Today: a mimosa, a dark and stormy, a pimm's cup, and possibly, right now, a final Makers on the rocks. See you guys tomorrow; bring coffee. Lots of it.
It's like Coney Island Classic over on the Palin Bailin' comment thread, so I'll just add here to the already mentioned looming indictment and book sale theories: the backwater gov wants to position herself in contrast to all the other Repugnants caught in scandals. The polls show preference to quitting on such occasions, yet they all hung on. There's still a Vetter, a Sanford, in office, and Grinch hangs around like a bad odor, and Creepy Craig even hung on to his seat at the Minn/St Paul john till end of term. Simple Sarah will go them one better. She's a quitter! Anytime a storm brews, she's out the door, quicker'n you can say Nixon! Never fear a prolonged impeachment with The Quitter in office!
@Tremonius: The problem with the "she's taking the high road" theory is that Sarah Palin will never, ever admit she did something wrong. The closest she'll get is her deluxe version of the victim act, where she claims that partisan Democrats and the liberal media chased an innocent quiter out of office.
Which would play great with her Heartland Conservative Moron base, unfortunately. If she's still interested in running for President, her poll standings in Iowa will probably improve after this.
@Michael Bauser: So far, remember, Simple Sarah has not risen above 13% in her own party. Once upon a time, there were 56 million morons at the polls. Where'd they all go? All the edyoukaydead Repugnants say she is a silly non-candidate, so where can she go to grow voters? Not Alaska no more.
Mark Twain says it best. About the holidays now past: "There are more fools killed on the Fourth of July than any other day. But, judging by the number of fools remaining, there simply aren't enough Fourths in any year."
@Carol Gardens: We visited Coney Island in June 2000. My prior reference point was in how they go to the beach in that region, which was crowds, not even standing room only, miles and miles of humans just standing around on the alleged sand, in Life magazine. But when we went we were practically the only ones there. Also the Metro was clean and safe.

Ah, what memories --those wee hours of the telethon when Jerry would start to get extra crazed and cocky.

Maybe they lie low, while SS lie high.
