I felt the same way when the stand-in weather man came on here, probably since all the ordinary weathermen washed away in the floods, or got the sack:

I realize I have to mince my words carefully these days.....
Always my trouble, bullshitting, eh.
I always have told the truth as I know it..........
Here we go again.

I have long ago given up on talking in PC terms.
I have come to believe that a man must say what he believes.
Sometimes it is pretty, sometimes it is not.
But somebody has to say it..........
My statements about the making PC of Mark Twain's books stand.
Those are statements in time that should not be basardised in the name of pc issm.
-
I guess I have to apologize to some.......I suppose.
This clip sums me up very well........I am a child of the dearly departed George Carlin.
Respect him or diss him, I grew up hanging on his every word and thought.
And his use of, and lack of concern for the use of, certain 'words'......has always been with me.
If my vocabulary exceeds the bounds or tolerance of some..I do apologize for that.
Their meaning, however, I will apologize for only under some circumstances.
I still miss this man.........

As I realize I have been given some latitude in these forums due to my past work in development and my rapport with the missing Simon, I shall hope to not offend too often.
And ask for your grace when I do.
Love you all.
Meow,
Mark

And I have to grapple sometimes with my interpretation of what this man has portrayed on the screen and what he really means......
Blurf relayed some of my thoughts to him in person......and his response was somewhat less than nice.
But it was real. And not far from the mark. Or Mark.
I am still, months later, re-evaluating some thoughts on account of his response to my words.
Another highly regarded man of mine.......thankfully still with us.
I still need to see 'Hereafter'.
Clint Eastwood...

I still miss this man.........
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEjcz2OZYIU&NR=1&feature=fvwp
Amen.
And thanks, now I'll have to spend the rest of the afternoon watching Carlin clips on You Tube.

Amen.
And thanks, now I'll have to spend the rest of the afternoon watching Carlin clips on You Tube.
I have spent the last couple of hours remembering him.......
Cried many times over his simple truths.
The man was simply always forward of the truth and times.
There are many of his standups on youtube. Could keep you busy for a couple of weeks licking your balls........LOL.
My favorite quote was the bit about...
'I might not be a good American.....because I LIKE TO FORM MY OWN OPINIONS........And I just don't roll over when I'm told to.'
Think about that.......think again.
And, I suppose, I should respect the fact that THIS forum is not based in the USA, where such literary freedoms are given.
I once again invoke Prot.......
'A simple demonstration, then?'
I am already back.
Meow.

Oh, the sleepless night.....
oh, the worries won't go.
I do what I must,
the mind just won't adjust,
Under the sleepless skies.
I don't know french much.....but, avec moi?
Fai do do apparently has two meanings.......
The last dance, or go to sleep, my sweet baby, so I can go to the dance.
You would have to ask the man show wrote the song exactly what he meant what he meant when he wrote the song......
Some of the explanation is here........
The fais do do.....the 'last dance'
Or as is otherwise translated....go to sleep, so I can dance.....check the wiki reference for fais do do.....
My take on it is...
This is the last day on the farm. Son says to mom........hey, let's have a last dance.
Bebett was his mother's nickname.........so he says to her, let's have a final fling.
The fais do do......dance in the face of all adversity. F that.
I should be so strong to do so.
I just luv his phrase....I don't give away all of my thoughts until the last minute......

-
And so now you may see.........
My thoughts are not totally my own.
They are simply on loan from Dylan, Joan, PPM, and others who have impacted my life from day one.
They all port me to their souls sometimes......and that's why I speak in tongues other than I might when I am sober.........they overtake me.
I know you think this is absurd...........but it is the only explanation I have.
I am the kittyman..........those who pose otherwise are imposters.
The real kittyman.........

This was originally intended to be a farce......
But.........Ground Hog day and Valentine's day come too close together to be a coincidence.
The worse part is tomorrrow..........well, you have to watch.
-
Well.....tomorrow is here.......
And I still got this frickin' groundhog pestering the kitties.
Thinks he's cute......and he is, in a groundhog kinda way.
Funny thing is.......
The groundhog is right.
Every day I wake up and it's like, yesterday.
History repeats itself.
I repeat myslef.
I imagine it will be 1969 forever.....and it IS.
I am 12 years old.......and will be until, by the grace of God, I am taken from this earthly plane.
My graying beard and frowseled hair does not fool me.........

OH........and whilst I am in the place.......
This is my latest 'kitty poem'.
I have not written many as of late.
Hope you enjoy......
'Kitty Paws'
Kitty paws, all extended to me.
They are like double edged swords, you see.
They paw and knead upon my chest.
That, you see, is what kitty paws do best.
But they have an edge that only kitty lovers do know.
The paws have claws, that you will come to know.
They sometimes feel that they
have to imbed them into you upon their way.
Not for spite it is that they do so, and not too often.
But it still hurts a bit when the jump offen.....
My kitty cats have all of their claws...
Have not had their toes removed from their paws.
Though that is fine for some more refined kittens,
mine still are clawed, with all their mittens.
And use them they do, to their best advantage.
To jump and run, with all their kittantage.
They have torn and scratched with all of their might
and managed to mangle most anything in sight.
But, they are cats. And I grant them that.
In this old house, they are free to be such a cat.
And they reward me with kitty kisses and claws
Sometimes catch my face, in spite of it all.
I have one who insists, when I go to bed
to try to imbed her claws on my head....
And she does it so gently......but still does impale
the skin of my head upon her little nails.
Ahhhhhh.....yes,,,,,,their is something about kitties.
Fill your heart full of love and get your undies in knitties.
Take you to the height of forgiveness and then
barf up their kibbles.
And 10 minutes later, at your ear she will nibble.
You know a cat loves you when she will lick at your hand...
It's what kitties do when they love you so grand.
Or nuzzle you with noses that they press so hard
upon your face.
You know your kitty loves you when they will not quibble,
but would rather be licking your face....
than their bowl....full of kibble.
Which you cannot ignore......
Even when it's time you must snore.
Yes, kitties are my life.
I hope to make them part of yours.
They are special animals......
One God gave us to adore.
The sit and stare, with such loving eyes.
They will love you too, if you could but try.
I say these things because I know them to be true.
I you love just a little, a cat will be true.
A little petting will reward you all the days through.
So, if you can, get a cat from a shelter near you.
You will be rewarded by love from thereveafter,
And have a place in the kitties' hearafter.
When all the kitties do midge.
That fateful place called the wonderful Rainbow Bridge.
If you could give a try, but unless you're not sure.......
And if you think kitty love is something you could somehow endure.
Go now to the place where many kitty souls meet....
I mean, the place in your town where many kitties do meet.
The Shelter, my friend, is where you will find such a pet.
That's where Lori and I have so many kitties met.
Take one home and I'm sure you will be met with the awe
that comes with one who adopts a kitty with such a sharp claw.
Be sure, there will be times of trouble, of trial.
But kitties will be there for many a mile.
When you're down, when you're out
and things look dire indeed.......
Kitty will come, lick your face, and you'll see..
That kitties are man's truest friend......so say I.
I have 4 here that will be do 'till I die.
When I go to bed each and every night,
I thank God that he put kitties into my sight.
Now you know more 'bout the kitties and I.
And that place kitties go in their place when they die.
The don't really die........in the sense you and I do.
Because they just have such a diss.......and cattatitude.

Y'all know me a bit by now.........
I don't pull punches, never backed down from a fight.
Say it like it is......you can run at me if you like.
But, better be ready when you get here.
'Cuzz it's elbows and a..holes the reat of the way down.
Never liked fightin' much........but I won't give.
Even when, back in '62, I had to pull the .38 outta my boot once.
Did not fiire. The SOB"s knew iI was serious.
Couple of bad boyz in the alley.
Did not take them long to figure out......LOL.

At the risk of being banned from the plant Earth........
This is what my bud George said about it........
And this was back in about .72......
You don't mess with Carlin.........he could cut you a new one in about 20 seconds.......
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wV1lZMTCqf8&feature=related
-
Ya see, it's like this.
I was messed up by the system since my youth.
You probably were too........
Carlin KNEW this..........but he was the only only one who was bold enough to
SAY the shit. Maybe Lenny Bruce, but he was really riibald.
Carrling said stuff that was REAL............
He did not mince words, he didn't HAVE to.
He meant what he said. each and every word.
I love words............each and every one of them.
I still cry when I miss him.
I know then all.........
I am not a good Americn, because I LIKE TO FORM MY OWN OPINIONS.
And I don't buy water........OK?
Are we so much better than chickens?
So many of you have missed his point.
He was not only a blesphemist......he mad you THINK about being a blasphemist.
So what if I don't wanna have a nive day?
Not bad, I've had a lotta good things too.
RIP, George.
Just give me my change.

I just had to mention...........
'When the sun shines on a cat.'
I had the moment to see today.......
The evening sun came straying in through the west window.
And shown fullly upon Bandit.......my llittelest kitty.
She is a very dark tortiois shell kittty. So dark, you cannot find her at times.
But, the sun hit her, and she lit up like a flame.
I mean, it was liike God showing Belushi the light..........
Every hair, every whisker......was lit up. Her eyes were glowing........she knew she was in the spotlight. Simply amazing.
I stared at her for over an hour......'till the sun set.
And hugged her for the next hour thereafter.
My friends, that's what kitties are all about.
Some simple little moments that can never be repeated.
I just had one.
Mee ........ow.

Yes...........there was a group called the Chordettes...........

And this..........a few of my favorite things.......
Whiskers on kiittens and such.
I will play for you now the original song that stole my heart.
It was Julie Andrews, of course.
Her wordplay was amazing......and can never be duplicated.
Raindrops on roses.......warm woolen mitterns.
God save me from idiots that have not been so smitten.
I cannot save you all...........some of you will have to do.
The 40 year reunion.........
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0VFC704wI0
She has since lost her wondrful voice. A tragedy indeed.
But.......one can still hear it loud and clear here...............

no witty comeback, he must have gone to town for an Upgrayedd (idiocracy), with two D's for a "double dose of pimping".
As the 21st century began, human evolution was at a turning point. Natural selection, the process by which the strongest, the smartest, the fastest, reproduced in greater numbers than the rest, a process which had once favored the noblest traits of man, now began to favor different traits. Most science fiction of the day predicted a future that was more civilized and more intelligent. But as time went on, things seemed to be heading in the opposite direction. A dumbing down. How did this happen? Evolution does not necessarily reward intelligence. With no natural predators to thin the herd, it began to simply reward those who reproduced the most, and left the intelligent to become an endangered species.
greatest movie ever, only because it is true.

Just in case you need some reinforsements there Mark... Born Sunday afternoon. Had to take them to the Vet because they were all tangled up in their umbilical cords. May have some trouble with a couple of their feet as they were wrapped up pretty tight.
