The only christmas song you need.

Howdy,

How do you like to spend Christmas? With tinsel and trees and good cheer?

Or do you wake up at half passed whiskey and shave just a little too close around your throat?

If you are among the former. Then there ain't nothin' under the stars of heaven that can help you.

If you are among the latter. Then let Tom Waits and Peter Murphy croon their way into your vermiculited hearts.

I'll talk to you once I drown myself in bathtub gin.

Mike Gravel ON ACID!

With the first caucus less than a month away, a huge upset with Mike Huckabee beating the shit out of Romney in the polls, and Obama in a statistical dead heat with Clinton in Iowa and South Carolina (Thanks Oprah!) I am really tweeking, man!

But there is one thing about this primary season that has me groovin' and that is Mike Gravel. Oh! To be sure he is an irrelevant crank who would make a superb commune secretary, or the best boss you ever had, but presidential material he is not.

Please, check out this campaign video. You will be glad you did. The thing about it is that I am not sure if it is official or not. He ads have been all bizzare.

Here it is kidos

tell me that doesn't make you want to smoke and watch Schoolhouse Rock?

Ain't that cool!

We have a few illustrious estrippers in San Francisco, but I thought I would beat them to their local news stories.

Yup, it generates more than enough energy it needs to keep itself illuminated, about a day's worth of electricity for a family of four.

Soon, we can smile in the knowledge that the chubby mug of Paul Walier divorce attorney is green, green, green.

Two of my favorite things

John Cale + Magritte = Love

If I accomplish one thing with this journal it will have been to expose more people to John Cale. This is about the 4th Cale video I have posted here. Just a great song to a slide show of Rene Magritte's art. You know Magritte, the guy with bowler hats and umbrellas.

Did somebody say Absinthe?

Holy cow?

How did this happen without me knowing? But, aparently, it is now legal to make and buy absinthe! You know, the same substance that turned the unreadable Coleridge into a poet tapped directly into the muse. Well, it is legal now my friends so let us get some glasses, sugar cubes, and some foppish hair!

How would you like to get your hands on a bottle? Oh sure, there is homemade stuff, but it is so alcoholic you would pass out before feeling the effects. Now that a distillery is operational we are good to go!

And now, for the first time in many, many years, let me say that I love America!

Sex Scandal blah blah blah

Oh man,

I am so behind on my regurgitating of sex scandals. Ya, it is always hilarious to find out that a hypocritical Republican was doing the nasty with a prostitute in a nappy, or an anti-gay senator was getting his chum bucket dredged by an escort. The democrats' sex scandals are boring. So some staffer wanted a 3-way with a 13 year old boy. Just because you make copies and phone calls for someone doesn't mean you are all in some unholy pedophile cabal. Only hypothetical pedophilia can be funny, but only rarely. Actual pedophilia is just deeply saddening.

The Rudy billing the city of New York for hotels and transportation for his mistress and her family is a fine story. The names are great: shag-gate and my favorite 69-11. But fraud doesn't get me going.

So I dug up an old friend. As more and more men are making it public that they have had sex with disgraced Senator Larry Craig (including Mike Jones, the man who regularly blew Ted Haggard) I thought of the first such story I read a few months ago. It is shows the level of class Craig operates with. I will give you the highlights, but you can read the whole thing (and it is short) here.

Here is the man Craig boinked

and here is the unsavory money quote from the linked article

"When we got to what reminded me of a rarely used guest room, he stripped me down, and the man's hands and mouth were all over me. He kept his pants on, though, while laying me back on the bed to suck my cock. Then, he stripped naked and asked me to suck him. I complied for a while, then he disappeared and returned with lube and a condom to fuck me me with. It was a clumsy and unremarkable fuck, except that I wasn't clean and he was frantic about not getting my shit on anything. Still, he blew his load, ripped the dirty condom off and ordered me to get dressed without wiping myself. He hurried me to the back door, again ranting, 'You were never here. You don't know me. Right?'"

If only he threw a $20 at the man on his way out.

Holy crap

It is the end of the semester and I have a ridiculous amount of work to do. I need to pump out two essays tonight (one on a book I didn't read) and write a 20 page research paper by next Thursday. In between I have three final exams I need to study for and then the day after my research paper is due I have a teacher's certification exam that will decide my fate.

GHAAAA!!!!

Well, at least my boss has left me alone for the day with leftover Indian food. Yummy, yummy.

Ron is Right

Hey there estripper,

Are you tired of people telling you how awesome Ron Paul is? Sick of having to defend your politician of choice against the flawless glory that is web-candidate Ron Paul?

Wish there was a way to get them back?

WELL NOW YOU CAN!!!

Just send that Ronnite over to Ron is Right.com where they will be greeted with an open letter telling them 1) You get it already 2) Please leave me alone.

And what would make a most delicious icing on the cake? How about the most 80's tastic, easy listening garbage music video ever!

thank you RonIsRight.com!

It Pays to Procrastinate

Hi,

So, I am taking two graduate history classes this semester. One of them is on US immigration. 1/3 of my grade is based on my participation in a debate on immigration policy and an attending paper defending my position. I should have been working on this since the beginning of the month, but school and I don't roll like that.

So, three days before it is due I start to take a huge crack at it. Unsure about the written component I email the professor who tells me she forgot about it entirly so it is being dropped. Sweet!

The book I am to base this on has two different arguments 1) immigrants are both positive and negative but the net effect is slightly good. 2) immigrants are both positive and negative but the net effect is slightly bad. It isn't material that takes your breath away, so I am ignoring it.

But what do I see when reading my favorite blog on New York state politics? but a report from the Fiscal Policy Institure which says that immigrants bring $299 BILLION dollars in output to the state, about 30% of total output. It is full of wonderful little positive things from there on. Which diffuses the negative portion of both arguments, both cultural and economic. You can read it here.

I am so going to get an A with minimal work. I think this calls for a celebratory drink tonight. Nothing light a slight hang over to mask your smug sense of superiority!

james writes at 04:26:10 11/26/07 - Comment #28476: Jason: it is very dull actually. The scope of the argument is on legal immigration. But will invariably descend into illegal immigration.

What I will argue is that they have a positive economic impact (thank you Fiscal Policy Institute). But what I think needs to be mentioned is the positive cultural and social impact. Multiple ethnicities in a society leading to a diversifying of that societies culture in the face of racism and nativism.

Basically, I want to paint the Nativists of the past as knuckleheads who had no idea what they were talking about to make the Nativists in my class look like doo-doo heads.

drew writes at 04:17:59 11/26/07 - Comment #28475: If anyone tries to bring faith into it, I've got your back. The Bible is incredibly pro-immigrant, unlike many evangelical voters.

jason writes at 04:08:42 11/26/07 - Comment #28473: There is a part of me that is curious about what your argument is (strictly economic?)

james writes at 03:58:05 11/26/07 - Comment #28469: Mike: That is why I am in the social sciences, it is the very stuff of bull shit.

Jason: oh ya! There is a ton! The report lists a bunch of them. It just made my life easier because now I have page after page of statistics to back it up rather than saying "I read once in some report or another".

jason writes at 03:53:10 11/26/07 - Comment #28468: There are a ton of positives to (legal) immigration, other than contribution to the economy.

mike writes at 03:08:51 11/26/07 - Comment #28467: oh procrastination, I love it! Unfortunately it is the only style I know and it doesn't seem to be working quite as well in organic chemistry! I just can't learn it all over night like I could whip out a semester long paper the night before or something for sociology or communications! grr
