i wonder...
...today is the shortest day of the year. ever wonder what tony danza does to celebrate it? a little song and dance? perhaps. maybe some vacuuming. because he played a maid on tv, thats why. or maybe felicia rashaad. ever wonder what she is up to? sometimes i wake up in the middle of the night wishing i had a debilitating drug habit and felicia rashaad was my drug buddy just so i could say, "hey, bitch...mrs. cosby...pass the crack pipe." but then i go back to sleep and dream of rudy huckstable's friend, peter, who never said anything. but i cant get the bastard to shut up. he just talks my ear off about stuff like toaster ovens and the orion constellation and macadamia nut cookie recipes.
so yeah, like i said, its the shortest day of the year. and its one of my favorites, too. some people dig christmas or st. patricks day or something. i dig the winter solstice. yeah. break out the devil horns and lets dance around stonehenge, its winter solstice time. i even wore black today for the occasion. ocassion. how the bloody hell do you spell occassion? ocasion. none of them look right.
and neither do you. maybe you should lie down. or have some tea.
and dont forget, its the winter solstice, so bring your dog in for the night. put on your black and your favorite NIN record (no, not downward spiral, the other one) and raise your hand, lifting your fingers to devil horns as a symbol of night's great Pyrrhic victory over the sun.

i'll tell ya what tony danza does to celebrate: he sings with a badly aging liza minelli during a rerun of the first-ever episode of the tony danza show. which may as well be vacuuming. or at least vacuuming would sound better.
uh, i mean, i don't watch the tony danza show...
crap...
happy pyrrhic victory, soldier.
someone's been hitting the amphetamines a little too hard haven't they. i thought my birthday was the shortest day of the year. or was it the longest? i seem to remember my momma telling me time stood still for while as my crown peeked... then came those clamps, those horrible, scar-yielding clamps. i can still feel the clamps.
good idea about the black though, but let's do it everyday. and the devil horns. but we shouldn't call them devil horns, let's call them rock index and pinky erect o'er thumb and birdie and ring fingers.
oh, and yes...peter had a dirty little mouth.
and what does pyrrhic mean?
Pyrrhic
Pronunciation: 'pir-ik
Function: adjective
Etymology: Pyrrhus, king of Epirus who sustained heavy losses in defeating the Romans
: achieved at excessive cost [a Pyrrhic victory]; also : costly to the point of negating or outweighing expected benefits [a great but Pyrrhic act of ingenuity]
