Reason #17 To Get a Full Time Job


To save up enough
dough
to hire
Bill
Shatner
to deliver my
aimless,
bewildering
free-verse
jeremiad
on the day
when I
suddenly
and
inexplicably
decide to
up
and quit.

The Shat still has it. No one, and I mean no one, except perhaps Martin Milner or Adam West could've possibly have done that as effectively as Captain Kirk.

It did have a sort of Jim Morrison lyricism, did it not? Only a Jim Morrison coming down from a methadone bender and feeling that strange, ominous rumbling in the pit of his stomach that all too many academics and Republicans mistake for inspiration.

It was the Plan Nine From Outer Space or The Room of speeches, a sheer, inspired level of badness and intellectual depravity that makes a mockery of traditional competence, transcending the conditions for intelligence and coherence to achieve a weird, fascinating-in-a-trainwreck sort of way its own transcendant incandescence, or a terrible beauty, as Yeats once wrote.

Anyway, where was I? Oh yeah, Conan Shat all over Palin, alright. W00t!

Just to get offtopic for a minute, I've run into a bit of trouble lately. Actually, I'm in a lot of trouble and on the eve of my fiancee's arrival. Could someone please help me out? Any small amount would make a difference. TIA.

We now return to our regularly scheduled Shatting.

It reads as though S'pewlin actually loves and cares about nature, doesn't it?

Funny that nowhere in that HazMat trainwreck of a screed was there mention of shooting wolves from helicopters, praying for God's support of an oil pipeline, or pardoning a turkey while another turkey gets beheaded only a couple of yards away. Not to mention drill baby drill in the ANWR baby ANWR, or the environmental destruction wreaked by Todd and his noisesome fume-belching snow machines.

Mother Nature wins? Not if Sarah and the Republicans can help it.

Oh yeah, that was cute, I have been resisting watching that for two days now because I wouldn't watch Mooselini do it the first time.
Bye Bye Crazy lady.
Christ.

If you don't put up a Donate button here real soon and we lose your voice because some fucking internet provider didn't get their thirty pieces of silver for one month?, yeah, there will be Hell to pay.
Fer Chrissakes, I have trouble keeping my shit together week to week myself and I still try to encourage some of my fellow bloggers when I can and yer just at the top of that list, Capiche?
We have had this conversation before dammit.
If nuthin' else I'll pitch fer a fucking pizza, yer choice.

Don't make me turn this into a personal mission,I sure as Hell will and you know damn well and good that I am an Ornery Bastard and I will give you one guess as to who I am going to enlist first,and second.

Resistance is futile.

Best wishes, ya hard headed motherfucker and Thank You, yer a true inspiration.

Hey driftglass, that sounds very applaudable!

Looks like YouTube pulled the video, though, perhaps you can steal^Wcopy the embed code from here.

to be sure, drifty, I get the impression Shatner will do it for bus fare.

But; I hope this means that UNTIL you get Shatner to do your farewell speech, you will keep on keepin on?

Cuz I don't comment often, but you are a daily read, friend.
