A Nation On The Edge

Across America, Millions of People Are Shaking Hands, Using Money, Walking Down Aisles in Stores in Both Directions, Attending Concerts, Movies, Restaurants, Church Services, Swimming Pools, Swap Meets, and Beaches — With Cloth Masks at the Ready, Awaiting Emergency Notification From Bureaucrats That Covid, the Flu, Tuberculosis, or the Common Cold May Be in the Area

[Correction: not the Flu, Tuberculosis, or the Common Cold. Pfizer has no mRNA shot for sale to the government for them.]

FrankJ Pays a Visit to IMAO

At length the hour of shutting up the mocking-house arrived. With an ill-will FrankJ dismounted from his stool, and tacitly admitted the fact to the expectant Walrus in his tank, who instantly snuffed his candle out, and put on his hat.

“You’ll want all day to-morrow, I suppose?” said FrankJ.

“If quite convenient, sir.”

“It’s not convenient,” said FrankJ, “and it’s not fair. If I was to pay you half of nothing for it, you’d think yourself ill-used, I’ll be bound?”

Walrus smiled faintly.

“And yet,” said FrankJ, “you don’t think me ill-used, when I pay no day’s wages for no work.”

The pinniped observed that it was only once a year.

“A poor excuse for picking a man’s pocket every 365 days!” said FrankJ, buttoning his great-coat to the chin. “But I suppose you must have the whole day. Be here all the earlier next morning.”

The clerk promised, with his fingers crossed behind his back, that he would; and FrankJ walked out with a growl. The office was closed in a twinkling, and the clerk, with the long ends of his privileged white comforter dangling below his waist (among other things), went down a slide on Cornhole, twenty times, in honour of its being Memorial Day vacation, and then ran to the interns’ quarters as hard as he could pelt, to play at blindman’s-buff.

Bud Vibrations

In honor of Gay Period Month. [Editor’s note: Coors — owner of Miller Light and Molson’s — has also gone full woke.]

I, love Mulvaney clothes he wears
And the way that Biden plays upon his hair
I hear the sound of a mental ward
On the whim that lifts his performance art through the air

I’m pickin’ up Bud vibrations
He’s giving me sex mutations
I’m pickin’ up Bud vibrations (oom bop, bop, Bud vibrations)
He’s giving me disputations (oom bop, bop, incantations)
Bud, Bud, Bud, Bud vibrations (oom bop, bop)
He’s giving me deviations (oom bop, bop, deviations)
Bud, Bud, Bud, Bud vibrations (oom bop, bop)
Cry for the next generations (oom bop, bop, next generations)

Dundee vibes
They’re somehow closer now
Softly smile, we know he’s out of his mind
When I buy Molson Ice
He goes with me to the bathroom urinal

I’m pickin’ up Bud vibrations
He’s giving me sex mutations
I’m pickin’ up Bud vibrations (oom bop, bop, Bud vibrations)
He’s giving me disputations (oom bop, bop, incantations)
Bud, Bud, Bud, Bud vibrations (oom bop, bop)
He’s giving me deviations (oom bop, bop, deviations)
Bud, Bud, Bud, Bud vibrations (oom bop, bop)
Cry for the next generations (oom bop, bop, next generations)

(Ahhh — by the by, what election?)
I don’t go there but he’s covered in hair
(Ah, my, my, no penetration)
(Ah, my, my, what deflation)
(Ah, my, my, no castration?)

Gotta keep those Evinrude conversations a-happenin’ with guys
Gotta keep End-Zone celebrations a-happenin’ with guys
Gotta keep Epistles to Galatians a-happenin’ with guys . . .

Ah!

Good, good, good, good libations (foam, hop, hop)
He’s giving me “Ex” vibrations (oom bop, bop, expectorations)
Good, good, good, good libations (foam, hop, hop)
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah (D’oh! D’oh!) — Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah (D’oh! D’oh!)

[Does Three Stooges nutso move]

Refresh My Memory: Have They Ever NOT Raised the Debt Ceiling?

Biden Caves, He and Speaker McCarthy List Points of Agreement, Take Possibility of Default off the Table
Red State | 05/22/2023 | Nick Arama

It sounds like President Joe Biden and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy have resolved one crucial point on the debt negotiations. They’ve reached the most important agreement — they will avoid a default and take that option off the table.

They came together to list their points of agreement:

JUST IN: Pres. Biden outlines agreements and pain points in ongoing debt ceiling negotiations with House Speaker McCarthy: “We both agree default’s not really on the table. We’ve got to get something done here.”

What the hell are Pain Points? By definition, won’t “something” be done?
