A LOVELY BUNCH OF COCONUTS
Hey gang. A little bored. Too many miracles this week.
Sure, there’s CENTIGRADE news to report but let’s be honest, who really gives a snort? If you’re like most of us out there, this blog is little more than a curio. A two headed frog along the highway of e-mail, facebooks and youtubes. Granted, I’m sure a few of you out there are serious when it comes to the net. Philosophers and budding journalists ‘researching’ that new book. You know. The one that started off as an anthem of good triumphing over evil, but somehow morphed into a story about twin sisters with giant tits, a strap on and the ability to jerk off bad guys with their feet.
So. Welcome to the state of the world. There’s an election happening down south if you haven’t been in the loop. A circus of two commies, a liberal and a bunch of college kids crying out for “change” (probably their bong water.) Half of them sprinkle Effexor on their cornflakes, the other half just checked out of Planned Parenthood and the loudest of them are terrified of catching their reflections in a lake. But what the hell do I know. There’s a guy standing next to me crossing himself. I don’t know if he’s Catholic or just lookin’ for his keys.
And the train kept a rollin’.
Anyway, I’m thinking about expanding the format of the site. Which, let’s face it, is pretty much just a smokescreen for my soap box tuned ramblings about society and people as we don’t know them. An Irish American GPS through the world of Hollywood and drift wood.
Speaking of wood, where’s Waldo? It’s snowing in Greece! Two weeks ago Israelis were commuting to work on skis. Insanity. But not to worry, they’ve issued an Amber Alert on Mr. Gore. Check your milk carton.
And that’s it. So, check in and I’ll have a little something different to ponder from week to week.
Till’ then, I leave you with a little tune written by Eugene O’Neil.
Enjoy.

smoke box or not, people will always find it interesting reading the goings on and other peoples thoughts.
I tend to keep my writing to my music, magic history, goings on and my art. the rest i hide from the public, in locked entires.
I have a few posts that are attention getters that are beyond the norm, and provoke interesting comments.
Blog on, my friend, blog on.

I always enjoy reading your blog. Came here because of Centigrade but stayed for the other stuff. Sometimes, I think we’re on the same wavelength cept I’m still the “stranger in a strange land” being a Brit living in this strange country called the USA. I don’t even have the right to vote, which means some folks feel I shouldn’t even have an opinion. How can I live here for almost 10 years and not have an opinion? Anyway, I also use my journal/blog to cite my opinions on certain matters.
On a lighter note, I’m delighted to see you’re going to be in Pittsburgh in July. No idea what the convention will be like (had never heard of it before), but I’m sure it will be interesting to say the least.
I’ve got a lovely bunch of coconuts?……..
Colin you’re just wierd!!! and I mean that in the nicest possible way :-)

It’s good to have a place to vent or ponder, so keep on with the soapboxing! Who cares if no one is reading it, as long as it makes you feel better ;)
I fear the outcome of this next election, so I’ve decided to just ignore it until the day I have to go into that booth and punch some buttons. It all feels so futile.
Bexter says weird, (comment March 2nd) but I grew up on songs like ‘I’ve got a lovely bunch of coconuts’ and ‘yes, we have no bananas’. Thanks for taking me back to my childhood, Colin!
