Anybody know if we're going to get posts tonight? This is vital information to me, considering the fact that I don't have a life.

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.

@jasonelias: this is one of the better MJ dance videos I've seen. Stunning.

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

@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.

@Banjo-Sea Kitten: Wasn't that cool? Heh, I used to like to see Jerry get amped up like that. It's a far cry from that now...

@lobstr: I'm glad to see Jerry's slimmed down. I thought he was going to bust about 5 yrs ago.

@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.
