Last week the daughter & I went to see Kristin Chenoweth in Mpls.
Time for me to get my Gay on. Absolutely fabulous & then some.
Two hours of unrestrained Show Business, with the accent on Show.
An incredible performance. She hit some notes that had me worried
that my glasses would shatter. Great segues between songs, with some
local stories about her days at the Guthrie Theater & her first encounter
with the Minnesota winter her jabs at ABC executives etc. She is every
male heterosexuals (me) dream.
Talented,voice, humor, looks & incredible body. One of the best non
Rock concerts in my decades. Thanks for the goosebumps. You go Girl.
After having my fill of political pundits & their incredible lack of civility,
I have created my own version of an opinion show. It's a bit radical (surprise),
but it will end the frustration of watching these rude bastards. It is called... CUT OFF
The premise is no different from any of the similar gabfests, with one major
improvement. The caveat is ... the guests are allowed to present their views.
No matter how insane, no matter what political party they represent, no matter
what. They can agree or refute with out interruption. Period. If someone
of the opposition interrupts the presentation of a differing view, their microphone is CUT OFF.
They are unable to have anything broadcast for 3 minutes. If it happens a
second time... Cut Off for 5 minutes. If they are foolish enough to do it a third time,
they are escorted out of the studio by security. All televised. They are also banned
from further appearances for 6 months. This just does not include the obvious
rudeness of talkus interruptus... it includes the split screen shaking of one's head,
the smirk, & the complete lack of originality. If a pundit repeats themselves a third time
or spouts their political party's standard talking points. CUT OFF.
Of course, the host is allowed to politely interrupt, but only to the ask the person to expand,
or to ask a question of clarification. The public might actually get to hear something.
I've devised the perfect place for those distressed from the world around us.
A getaway, a resort where you can forget the usual things that plague the individual
living in this inane world. A place to rest, to recharge. A place to get away from the stench
of every day Bullshit. The name of this haven... The Downwind Unwind.
Welcome to the Torrid Zone. Here in Minnesota, we are experiencing 7th straight day
of 90+ degree temps with oppressive humidity. No change in sight for the next 4 or 5 days.
The patio door is steamed over. Go outside and your glasses fog up from the humidity.
Overnight lows are in the 70's or 80's. What climate change. Great time to be a cactus salesman.
Holy moley, In the words of Buster Poindexter...It is hot, hot, hot.
Happy Birthday United States Of America.
So long till next time. Peace & Rock On.
