Dan Rather talks in his sleep

Rather:  “…Because as they say down in Tuscaloosa, you can’t roast the pork without first burping the pig…”

My ninth brief conversation with a McIntosh Apple

me: “So.” apple: “So.” me: apple: me: apple: me: “So.” apple: me: apple: me: “So.” apple: ”What? Fine, change the damn channel.  Just stop staring at me, okay?  You’re giving me the creeps.”

Uh, it’s Friday.  Where’s our dancing monkey?

Passed out under the coffee table with a William S. Burroughs novel tucked under his chin.  Which is about what you’d expect from a monkey who spent the better part of today eating corn chips and huffing model glue out of an Arby’s bag.

Allawi to the UN:  “You cannot fight totalitarian regimes with caviar and toast points”
