Flash is fast, Flash is cool
Francois sez fas, Flashe’ no do
And you don’t stop, sure shot
Go out to the parking lot
And you get in your car and you drive real far
And you drive all night and then you see a light
And it comes right down and lands on the ground
And out comes a man from Mars
And you try to run but he’s got a gun
And he shoots you dead and he eats your head
And then you’re in the man from Mars
You go out at night, eatin’ cars
You eat Cadillacs, Lincolns too
Mercurys and Subarus

"The mass of people, as La Boetie and Mises recognised, always and everywhere consists of "brutes", "dullards", and "fools", easily deluded and sunk into habitual submission. Thus today, inundated from early childhood with government propaganda in public schools and educational institutions by legions of publicly certified intellectuals, most people mindlessly accept and repeat nonsense such as that democracy is self-rule and government is of, by, and for the people."

Between-innings OT

I’m rehearsing for an upcoming concert, and after a couple of run-throughs there’s, like, a liter of saliva in my bass clarinet. Always happens that way.

I picked the wrong day to quit sniffing Matt Cain.

I’m amused that you’re sitting there, watching the game, playing a clarinet.

Yeah, I’ve played clarinet since I was 12, and bass clarinet since about 15. Bass is my instrument of trade.

Remember, I said earlier that I wanted to play Tchaikovsky with Martinez?
