OK !!! All you sports fans and happy campers --- try having a "HAPPY" Veterans Day after this.....


We are here to tell you just how bad things really are.....


We're all running around, and nobody knows whether to shit or get laid.....


Here's the good and the bad news  ---  we've all been fucked  ---  and we'll never be fucked again !!!  


At least that means our existential choices have been made much simpler  ---  Also, before you get on the road to Wigan Pier don't forget to put out all your aspidistra(s) for all to see


Today, I was privileged to receive a multi-part message from the two men still vying to be the representative "everyman" from the 43rd Council District in the New York City Council. However, the message necessarily required my own input by the way of a couple of necessary questions for the later parts of the message to have context and meaning.

The first part of the message was from Mr. Fox and it was on his campaign's Facebook page  ---  and on the surface it looked quite appropriate and non-controversial  (and, yes, I did mark this date on my calendar)  ---  here's what Brian Fox said as part of his Veteran's Day message "Honoring All Who Served":   
"Today we honor those who served to protect our nation and defend our freedoms. To our #veterans, we say thank you! #VeteransDay ...."

That was simple and straightforward, but it prompted me to ask myself --- protected our nation from what ??? And then, defended what and/or which freedoms ?????

Little did I expect an almost immediate answer from Justin Brannan on his Twitter feed.....  Here's what Mr. Brannan writ: "If we are truly a city of immigrants then the immigrant experience should center every decision we make as a city.... For the family that just arrived here, what does our city look like through their eyes?..."

But Justin wasn't finished with his thought --- and so, he went on with this: ".... When a new New Yorker walks into the office of a city agency, are they greeted by someone who looks like them and speaks their language?... How do we ensure immigrants can harness the promise and possibilities of this great city just like those who were born here?..."

But Brannan still had more: ".... Because I don't care if you've been here since birth or if you've been here since breakfast, this is YOUR CITY.... Thank you @thenyic @NYICAction for bringing us all together tonight!..."

Just think about what the combined messages from out two most recent candidates for our corner of Brooklyn are telling us. With Brannan and Fox around, who needs George Orwell ???

Well, thank God, our veterans didn't try to defend us from those that had just arrived for this morning's breakfast and all the freedoms that we, who were born here, think we might uniquely enjoy becasue we are born and bred Americans.....

BTW, don't keep your aspidistra flying out-of-doors during a NYC winter. It just won't do that well.

  1. Gale, I think your hungover and reading Brannan's messages from last night again. I don't think that was his Veteran's Day massage.

  2. RESPONSE: THE "BOY, DO I EVER WISH THAT I WERE HUNGOVER !!!" EDITION

    TO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 9:32 AM"

    ONE HATES TO WAKE UP AND THINK THAT THIS IS AS GOOD AS ONE IS GOING TO FEEL ALL DAY.....

    I CAN'T HAVE READ JB'S MESSAGE FROM LAST NIGHT "AGAIN" --- BECAUSE I NEVER READ IT LAST NIGHT IN THE FIRST PLACE..... SO, KEEP YOUR DISTANCE AND DON'T PUKE ON MY SHOES.....

    FOR ME THE FOX AND BRANNAN MESSAGES WERE READ IN THE ORDER THAT I DESCRIBED THIS MORNING --- SO I DON'T CARE IF THIS "BEANER" THAT JUSTIN DESCRIBED ARRIVED HERE FOR BREAKFAST TODAY OR YESTERDAY


    It don't matter who or what our veterans defended us against or from --- once upon a time in America or any place else.

    Right now, there ain't nobody defending us from nothing that matters nowhere and no how.....

  3. The Vets who were drafted to invade Iraq could have fled to New Hampshire. And did you ever stop to think who would have supplied Al Queda with 88 billion dollars in weapons if it werent for the veterinarians who could have stayed at the Dog & Cat hospital next to the Leif?

  5. If Lee Harvey Oswald were still alive, he'd be 82 years old, and he would have celebrated the USMC's 246th "Birthday" yesterday, along with Charles Whitman and Ronald Lee Ermey, who mentioned both Mr. Oswald and Mr. Whitman as Marine Corps trained marksmen in Stanley Kubrick's "Full Metal Jacket."

  13. UPDATE & BACKFILL: THE "BRIAN FOX JUST DOESN'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY OR WHAT TO DO" EDITION

    SO, EITHER HE FORGOT WHAT HE SAID BEFORE OR HE NEVER SAID IT IN THE FIRST PLACE.....

    ALL THAT IT SHOWS IS THAT HE CAN'T BE VERY SERIOUS IN WHATEVER HE MIGHT HAVE TO SAY --- BECAUSE HE IS ALWAYS ACTING LIKE A BUFFOON IN HIS OWN GRAND GUIGNOL PERFORMANCE

    Yesterday, Brian Fox supposedly said this on his campaign's Facebook page: "... I am calling on Councilman Justin Brannan to reveal what he knows about the dead voters who did in fact cast votes in our election and to join in our investigation of this #crime. We have Private Investigators pursuing these fraudulent votes but we ask the Councilman to use the full leverage of his office to bear on this investigation...."

    Fox must have forgatten that just two days earlier, he said much the same thing --- having been quoted on Liam Ambrose McCabe's Facebook page, as follows: "... 'Needless to say, I remain curious why Justin Brannan remains so confident [of a win]. He seems to know what’s in sealed ballot envelopes, and in light of our discovery of fraud, I ask him to return from Puerto Rico and join me in looking at these ballots with a fine-toothed comb,' said Fox, referring to the councilman’s trip to the Somos conference in San Juan last week...."

    At best, Mr. Fox must think that he is a character in an Agatha Christie novel, playing the unofficial sleuth investigating whatever he seems to think is a "crime" --- and expecting that anybody else would be willing to join him in his solving it. At worst, he's somebody with a serious personality disorder or disturbance, whose condition causes alarmist outbursts about metaphysical events, which must seem very real and firighteneing to him --- coupled with grandiose notions of his own abilities and authority.

    Maybe someday Fox will learn that there are agencies, laws, and procedures in place to deal with any allegations that he might choose to make in due course. Meawhile, we'll just have to watch as Fox leads his army of "private investigators" into battle against his demons and hobgoblins.

  14. Today Brian Fox will have another poorly attended "press" "conference" outside the office of our esteemed local City Council Member where he will cast doubt on the election results knowing he is going to loose

  15. What will come out soon is the pattern of voters who have been dead for decade but cast ballots in 2020 & 2021. And yes the dem & GOP BOE officials are investigating as well. The Council Speaker in waiting Adrienne Adams has a bi-partisan plan.
