Take note of the date on the comic, that was friday... the day the cute young men appeared on my porch bearing literature and things in their backpacks. I'm being sent some sort of message apparently.






Hey well
I'm a friendly stranger in a black sedan
Won't you hop inside my car.
I got pictures, got candy
I'm a loveable man
And I can take you to the nearest star.
I'm your vehicle baby
I'll take you anywhere you wanna go.

You see this cat Shaft is a bad mother--
(Shut your mouth)
But I'm talkin' about Shaft
(Then we can dig it)





Once we were lovers
But somehow things have changed
Now were just lonely people
Tryin to forget each others names
What came between us?
Maybe we were just too young to know
But now and then
I feel the same,
And sometimes at night I think
I hear you calling my name
Mmm-hmm-mmm these dreams
They keep me going these days
Once we were lovers
But that was long ago
We lived together then
And now we do not even say hello
What came between us?
Maybe we were just too young to know
But now and then
I feel the same,
And sometimes at night I think
I hear you calling my name
Mmm-hmm-mmm these dreams
They keep me going these days



I'm trying to tell you something about my life
Maybe give me insight between black and white
And the best thing you've ever done for me
Is to help me take my life less seriously
It's only life after all
Yeah
Well darkness has a hunger that's insatiable
And lightness has a call that's hard to hear
I wrap my fear around me like a blanket
I sailed my ship of safety till I sank it
I'm crawling on your shores
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains
There's more than one answer to these questions
Pointing me in a crooked line
And the less I seek my source for some definitive
(the less I seek my source)
The closer I am to fine
The closer I am to fine
And I went to see the doctor of philosophy
With a poster of Rasputin and a beard down to his knee
He never did marry or see a b-grade movie
He graded my performance, he said he could see through me
I spent four years prostrate to the higher mind
Got my paper and I was free
I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains
I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains
There's more than one answer to these questions
Pointing me in a crooked line
The less I seek my source for some definitive
(the less I seek my source)
The closer I am to fine
The closer I am to fine
I stopped by the bar at 3 a.m.
To seek solace in a bottle or possibly a friend
And I woke up with a headache like my head against a board
Twice as cloudy as I'd been the night before
And I went in seeking clarity.



It's less crude and offensive than some of the other shirts I've had made. I have a shirt with this on the front and back. I wear it to work all the time (No, that's not me). It's much larger than Monk's graphic, it's on both sides and takes up the entire front/back of the shirt. If I can get away with that the latest one is nothing.



After days of gentle feeding and lots of love, Zero, the emaciated pit bull who was rescued and nearly 45 pounds underweight, died in his foster mother’s arms.
A representative of the Camden County Animal Shelter said the grossly underweight pit bull passed away Sunday night after his health started to rapidly decline.
“He took his last breath in his foster mother’s arms knowing love for probably the first time in his life,” Camden County Animal Shelter’s Heather Speeks wrote in an e-mail to NBC 10.
"Zero’s foster mother did everything possible to save [him]," she added. "Despite our best efforts to do so, we can’t always undo the damage that has been done.”
Last week, authorities found Zero, who was named after the skeleton dog featured in the movie “The Nightmare Before Christmas,” and took him to the New Jersey shelter.
They turned him over to an experienced foster mother who said that despite being starved, abused and neglected by a former owner, Zero always wagged his tail and seemed happy. He also got along well with the other dogs in the home.
Workers at the shelter said Zero was initially so starved and dehydrated that he could not eat solid food because it made his gums bleed. Veterinarians could not hook him up for IV feeding because they feared it would drown his weak heart.
The foster mother worked with him and gently fed him soft food, but she and other workers weren’t able to turn his condition around.


Hahahahahaha.I am not insane! I'm working on it though. I'll let you know before I snap. I promise.
