Reality Check

And this has what to do with Brookfield or Wisconsin? Some of you so-called bloggers seem to be reaching a bit to far for anything to talk about. If you can't think of anything important or interesting then just don't post.

Dan's Response

I question the integrity of this criticism. Had it been Barney Frank in the stall instead of Larry Craig, I suspect your view would be different.

Either way, you raise some issues in this comment and your prior unhappy comments that I’m glad to address. I have not been subtle about the fact that I try not to take myself too seriously in this blog. The content of it consists of any topic that I find ironic, amusing or of good humor. It is not intended for people who are habitually angry, depressed, or humorless. They won’t like it and shouldn’t read it.

It is akin to an act of self mutilation to do something repeatedly that makes you so upset. But there’s the rub. Some people want to wallow in anger and try to spread it.

I suggest you find a blog by George Will. In my opinion, he represents the best of intellectual conservatives. Sadly, I rarely see him on television these days. Probably because he is soft spoken and thoughtful in an era of loud-mouthed pinheads. He writes a regular column which you can view at http://www.washingtonpost.com/ .

Happy trails.

Frankly Dan, I believe that those mug shots would fit nicely on the cover of the sixth grade sex ed. book currently being considered for Elmbrook Schools. It would certainly provoke interest in the subject matter.

But for that age group I would omit any additional shots the airport security camera may have caught of ole Larry seated atop a stack of 'protective tissues', stretching forward to initiate the Fire Island Mating Ritual.

That might be considered too extreme for community standards.

UPDATE!

Dan, did you notice the front cover of the Jan. 12th issue of People?

They claim to have an article therein which explains exactly how the princess of porkers - Oprah herself - has designed to lose all of her excess mass this year.

Glory be! She's back on top. She'll look anorexic by September!

Dan, has MICK seen the news article on BrookfieldNOW about an LCD television valued at $850 stolen from Chuck E. Cheese in the town of Brookfield - while the set was being installed?

Now there's a news standard seldom reached by aspiring writers. Heck, there's a feat seldom achieved by aspiring thieves. Pert near 'from your truck to mine'!

Actually, I've always thought Barney Frank should spend more time in the stall. Lots more time. Preferably with Larry Craig. If necessary, by himself.

Also, I would hesitate to recommend Geo. Will. Seems to me as though Rush Limbo would be a much better choice for discriminating folks like MICK.

Y'all Keep warm now.

By golly Dan, I think I saw this guy myself in an airport loo a while back. As I recall, he was the goon who stopped to wash his hands before entering the stall! He does take a handsome picture. But he is scarier in person I can assure you.

Oh, and don't worry to much about MICK. She usually gets a bit gnarly every 28 days or so. It'll pass.

Happy trails!

Speaking of Happy Trails, Dan, perhaps you could do a blog explaining the other Larry Craig: Ted Haggard. He recently pointed out that he does not fit into the traditional boxes. Could you venture a guess as to exactly which boxes he fits into? We only maintain two up here in Sarah Palin country.

Thanks so much for your ongoing socially transforming commentary.
