As Random As Random Gets. And Even More Random!
As many of you know, I’ve been reading this book about the JFK, RFK, and MLK assassinations called Legacy Of Secrecy as opposed to Legacy Of Secrets. Only a moron would think it was called Legacy Of Secrets. I’m now over 250 pages into the book, which is probably about a third of the way through. The fact I learned recently was that the first shot that hit Kennedy’s head didn’t kill him; instead it just gave him a bad headache. He even remarked to Jackie “I……..er……….uhhhh…………I have a bad………..er……….headache.”
The words laid and off are 2 great words; terms that represent sex. And who doesn’t like sex. What I find odd about it though is that if you put the two words together, you get laid off which doesn’t mean that you had two simultaneous orgasms, but instead that you just lost your job, which is not good at all. I’m just wondering how they got to mean the exact opposite of each other. I guess maybe its because when you get laid off its because a company is fucking you.
My mom always said never trust somebody who doesn’t like Jimi Hendrix.
You know, I really think teeth are given too much absolute, unfettered power. I mean they can chew the food. They can also inflict major damage if you bite your lip or tongue or another person. They also can be used to chew your nails and to tear shit open. A smile or mouth only looks good if all the teeth are there. Yet, there is really no way to fight back against teeth. Oh sure, you can knock your teeth out, but that usually only comes with some sort of damage to the thing knocking the teeth out. And sure you can have horrible oral hygiene which in the short term results in bad breath and people not wanting to be around you and in the long term results in cavities, toothaches and gum disease. Either way, the teeth get their revenge in an awful way. Somehow, there has got to be a way to keep the teeth power in check.
David Letterman recently got married after dating his baby mama for 23 years! Honestly, who the fuck dates somebody for 23 years and all of a sudden decides that “Yeah, I guess I did find the one.” And what chick let’s a guy get away without marrying her for 23 years? To put this into a little bit of perspective, their dating relationship spanned 5 U.S. presidents. Including himself, there have been 3 permanent hosts of NBC’s “Late Night” in those 23 years. I’ve got to wonder, what the hell finally did it for him? Was it the kid? No, that can’t be it, the kid is already 5 years old. Its got to be something. Do me a favor the next time you talk to Letterman, ask him what made him finally do it.
