You've done it - made me so angry I chipped a molar while I found my teeth. The political area of Washington was always a beautiful thing to me. L'Enfant's design was elegant, and the iconic buildings beautiful & inspiring. Twump the Visigoth.
"The phone calls,are coming from *inside* the house."
Those POISONED duckings hurt me the most out of this. I'm waiting for Trump to tell Pete Hegseth to go round up some leftover Agent Orange so he can show that algae a thing or two, by gum. (Trump's "personal Vietnam" takes on a whole new meaning).
I poured hot tomato soup in my lap and the burn got infected, even though I was following all doctor instructions. I'm lucky. It was fairly small comparatively, although in an awkward spot and the burn unit is one of the best. I got 2 skin grafts and some outstanding care. I am going to be fine. I think the duckling problem was the concentration levels from being dumped and not mixed in.
Oh my goodness that's not even imaginable. I mean, it is imaginable of course, but the very idea of crotch burns is ... yikes. I'm so glad you're over the worst and have had great care.
"Ich bin der Chrome Dinette" but one of of Zappa's classic lyrics. Thanks, Bob!
Again, schoolin' de peeps on Frank...let me take a turn with another classic, "Is that a real poncho, I mean is that a Mexican poncho, or is that a Sears poncho?"
Everybody in Germany learns English and modern German has oodles and oodles of English loan words. If you wanted to say something as absurd as "I am the chrome dinette," Ich bin der Chrome Dinette would be the perfectly natural way to say it ;)
Whew. Epic piece on so many levels Rick. I just literally have no words for all of this, for where we are now, for the science fiction horror aspect of it all.
Thanks Rick:: Love the script . The way you laid it all out made my day. If it wasn't serious it would be hilarious. This president is slowly turning Washington DC into a skid road district. The reflecting pool is green , just like the Iranian flag green.
What a disappointment Rick. It was The ALLIES from the west and Russia that were fighting all along and that America finally joined to defeat Hitler. Revisionist history doesn't suit those who fashion themselves our modern day sages.
I have only one frightening comment. If he got 85,000 to attend his gritty, grimy and sweaty foray into a mindless shindig of mindless underdeveloped toady sycophants, might he get the same to storm the Capital again, all 85,000, give or take. By the way, the description toady sycophants is exceptionally charitable.
I personally think incogni has gotten way worse the last two years, and was far from perfect to begin with. Neither I, nor family, use it anymore. If you are in CA, there is a free service that is better [Ca has a law]. For the money I find duck better also [love duck for some other stuff also]. I would not get incogni again if it was 90 percent off. I prefer no security to false security.
What a great read today Rick. Glad I could rest for a few and catch it. But the theme with trump is Everything Trump Touches Dies. He’s killed the East Wing, the Rose Garden, tried to kill the Kennedy Center. He might as well have because the National Symphony Orchestra has no venue to play, and artists left and right cancelled their performances rather than appear at the djt and Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. I cannot even begin to describe the fxxx up of the Reflecting Pool by the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial. Tragedy and comedy come together as one. Happy Independence Day America
You know what we do when all this bs is over? We tear it all down, dump the rubble on every trump property, and charge him/his family for the costs of the teardown, removal, and transportation of said rubble. Dump the actual garbage to the political garbage dump where it belongs.
German insults are the best.

And the dead ducklings. Tiny little lives snuffed out as insignificant while the mighty destroy everything else.

The ducks made me so angry that I was ready to go knock some heads. Lucky for them I was stuck in a hospital.
I didn't think hydrogen peroxide was that toxic; it's supposed to biodegrade pretty quickly. We need an autopsy on those poor ducklings.
That sucks, Susan. Hope you're doing okay.

Thank you. I go back for a follow up on Wednesday. Fingers crossed for a good report. Staying at my daughter's so she helps me with the bandages.
If he lives long after he leaves office can we put him in Alligator Alcatraz?
Isn't building a monument to yourself akin to giving yourself a nickname?
“And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.” ~ Percy Bysshe Shelley
Seems JD's been in the news lately. This is dedicated to him.
Now playing: Frank Zappa, Sofa No. 2
I am the heaven
I am the water
Ich bin der Dreck unter deinen Walzen
(Oh no, whip it on me, honey!)

Ich bin dein geheimer Schmutz
Und verlorenes Metallgeld

Ich bin deine Ritze
Ich bin deine Ritze und Schlitze

I am the clouds
I am embroidered
Ich bin der author aller Felgen
Und Damast Paspeln
Ich bin der Chrome Dinette
Ich bin der Chrome Dinette
Ich bin Eier aller Arten
Ich bin alle Tage und Nächte
Ich bin alle Tage und Nächte

Ich bin hier (Aye-ah!)
Und do bist mein Sofa
Ich bin hier (Aye-ah!)
Und do bist mein Sofa
Ich bin hier (Aye-ah!)
Und do bist mein Sofa

Yeah-ha-ha-ay
Yah-ha
Yeah, my Sofa
Yeah-ha-hey

The lyrics make it extra-hysterical that Peter Thiel is German ;)
The melody is ridiculously beautiful, too.
"Ich bin deine Ritze und Schlitze" = I am your cracks and slits
Yum ;)
"Ich bin Eier aller Arten" = I am eggs of all persuasions
That's the funniest line ever sung in a grandiose German style ;)

You can take the cat out of the alley, but you can’t take the alley out of the cat.

Works for me...
