Hysterical Hair -

The network execs, with their graphs and their charts
Have no idea what lurks in our hearts
They seem to reduce you to some kind of stat
I might not know much, but I do know that
.
For those of us who derive great pleasure
From watching you in our times of leisure
This whole thing screams of a major mistake
Do they realize what’s at stake?
.
The network whose last big success was MASH
Is looking for someone to bring in some cash
A ghost talking, pageant winning, nasal voiced twig?
A mathematician who can be a prig?
.
What of this cast full of talent and heart?
Good luck CBS with another new start
We want to see Jake and Eric and Stanley
Guys who are real, men who act manly.
.
Cop shows and Cop shows and Cop shows more
The fans should TUNE OUT and even the score
Skeet you should know that this fansite’s for you
In good times and rough, you can always turn to
.
The people here who’ve taken the ride
As you journey'd from Takedown to Miracles, in stride
Don’t let those execs with their cohibas and smarm
Try to tell you how to keep your kids warm
.
Keep your eye on the ball and the wind in your sails
We’re here for you, through all your travails
Keep on rocking that hysterical hair
As long as you do, your fans will be there.

Art for Later
The concept is simple.
you
create some art which is
small enough to pass from one hand to another.
It can be a poem
or some music you made on a CD
or a collage.
It can be a short story.
The art can be anything small enough to pass from one hand to the next.
Now,
stand in the middle of a crowded street or
in a shopping mall
and hand your art out saying:
“Art for Later.”
Folks get a gift of art to engage on their own terms and in their own time.
You get to expect nothing in return.
Win - Win

Fame and Loathing feel Familiar

The shooter in the mall in Omaha was named Robert Hawkins.
Now here is a really inappropriate connection force fed to Jericho fans by what should be a horrifying and unthinkable act. Unfortunately the unthinkable is becoming more and more common.
It has been reported that the Omaha Robert Hawkins left a note saying "he was sorry and he would no longer be a burden to his family... Now he would just be famous..."
In what possible frame of mind could you believe that killing 8 people and then yourself would make you any less of a burden to your family?
As for famous, the only real way to become so now is to kill more people then the copycats who came before you.
Mr. Hawkins killed 8 and then himself so he does not come close to prominance there but he may be able to claim some sort of title for his holiday approach.
In the year 2525, if man is still alive, the fame seeking killer will have their work cut out for them. I think he, they are mostly he, will have to kill the most folks while standing on their head, holding their breath and with eyes closed.
But I guess we have already reached this stage.
I know it could be shown that this young man was mentally ill and could have been helped. But he is a symptom of a much larger sickness in male culture and real medicine does not treat symptoms.
To quote Lou Reed: “It makes me mad and that makes me sad and then I start to freeze.”
****
Also on this morning’s news was some audio of the Chaplain of the United States Senate offering a prayer for the productivity and well being of the Senators. This brought my mind back to MikesMom’s story about the prayer in the Rotary club. She Wrote:
“I recall being confused attending my first Rotary meeting. The meeting started with the pledge and a prayer (still does). This is by no means a religious based organization, so it left me questioning things. It didn’t take long for me to realize that the prayer was to seek guidance and strength in our efforts as a group”
I get this aspect of it, I really do, but I wonder if the same purpose could not be served by a moment of silence.

I once read that in meetings between Native American leaders a chief would speak until they had finished their thought and then there would be a period of silence designed to allow the speaker to add any additional thoughts they might have.

The wait for a date is over.
At 5:09 pm today there came a post from Nina Tassler saying she wanted the Jericho fans to be the first to know that Jericho would return to television on Tuesday February 12th at 10 pm.
The announcement came at the moment the crisis du jour was about to go critical.(I remember it had something to do with threats, forgiveness and what is forgivable.) But timing is everything and with our most recent board bomb diffused by fate we move forward with a beacon of certainty to help guide us.
To honor this landmark occasion here are some folks who may not have made it this far but without whom we may not have either:
