20/20 Gonzo 17: Sloppy Joe Of The North


The constitution is nothing like apple pie and baseball!  This house manager must be on something.  First off, apple pie has light, fluffy crust, and next, baseball is more about steroids, surveillance, and TV contracts.  Still don't understand the vileness of the offenses, or the righteous reactions, or the ramifications.  It will all be made clear by spring, in the meantime the TV heads are cheering for their side, insulting the other side, and likely washing down lots of pills with lots of booze.

In a victory for male attire sanity and practicality, ties are out.  An unfunctioning burden literally wrapped around the neck, tucked under a collar, and in the way.  At least bow ties stay cleaner, and look especially sharp on those with moustaches, but somehow they add a clownish tinge.  Suspenders seem a thing of the past too, and rightfully so, gone the way of overalls, the athletic clothing revolution has done its thing.  As for females, their attire sanity and practicality is their own, nothing but admiration, appreciation, and support.

Iowa is about the most heavenly place on earth.  Green rolling hills, miles and miles of corn rows, the Bridges of Madison County, folks with big teethy smiles, and maid rites- the sloppy joe of the north.  The buses and vans have arrived, the expresses, the barn stormers, the presidential candidates who will save their lives from Oz.  The corporations are coming with their evil money and and their awful innovations and their dumb jobs, we are not in Kansas anymore.  Ready for the get down, ready for the show, watch the yellow brick road, the scarecrow will be there soon.

Red Mud Gonzo: Twenty Nine

  "No Controversy" by jpg Researching Max Purcell.  Has a Wimbledon title in doubles.  No controversy to speak of, but he's only won a third of his singles matches for his career.  Michael Mmoh's got wins against Zverev, Auger-Alassime, and Hubie.  Both 26 years of age, Purcell's won $3.5 million, Mmoh's at $2.5 million.  Not bad. "Whataburger Sucks" by jpg TTop was curious about the knife.  This dude spent 5 years in the Mojave desert, said he lost his sense of reality, said he'd defend his country again if he had to, I thought he wanted something to go down.  Told TTop the knife was for killing humans, if needed.  He wore his pistol in a holster for everyone to see.  *The double meat burger at the TX Burger in Fairfield, Texas was 5 of 5 stars.  Deep down, we all know Whataburger sucks. "1st Victim" by The Mayor Dumb ass.  Loses the element of surprise and becomes the 1st victim.  Add to it, he is carrying an oversi...

Maniacs And Friends

last night i dreamed i forgave everybody for anything ever done anytime before. there were fathers, brothers, sisters, and mothers, not to mention extended family. then the people all around -- toilers, drivers, watchers, lovers, maniacs, and friends. things they did, said, implied, yelled, things they ignored, they insisted, they resisted. i was talking with each of them individually, taking my time, and we were committed. nods and shakes, aknowledgments accepted and replaced with a debt of some sort. a responsibility to forgive others in the same manner, slate picked clean and put up. minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, and generations will pass either way.
