The mother was great... it's hard to have Glen Beck outlive your
child... priceless! Hah ha!
> Accident Victim not Glen Beck
Awww. That's a shame.
Well, there's ole Tex. At least sumbuddy out in ARAA tonight. ;-)
I wuz beginning to think the the Scat had Rot everbuddy's tongues again.
Starts with an "S" and it ends with a "T"
Comes out of you and it comes out of me
I know what you're thinking and it could be called that,
But be scientific and call it SCAT!
If you're walking through the woods and your nose goes "ewww!"
You know some critter's laid scat near you
It may seem gross, but that's okay
They don't have toilets to flush it away
Now don't run screaming and lose your lunch
Break it up in pieces, you can learn a bunch, about SCAT!
If you want to find out what the animals eat,
Take a good look at what they excrete.
Inside of their scat are all kinds of clues,
Parts of their food that their bodies can't use, and that's SCAT!
If you park your car in the woods or a field,
You might find scat on your windshield.
Some of it's purple and the rest of it's white,
You just got bombed by a bird in flight, and that's SCAT!
Well, it tells us what they eat and it tells us who they are,
And that's what we know about scat so far.
If you wanna find out what animals are around,
The place to start looking is the scat on the ground -- we're talking SCAT!

I caught perhaps parts of two segments of Glen Beck while he was doing
his thing with CNN. Just long enough to hear him divulge that he was an
Alcoholic and mention some association with AA. It was during those
short exposures that I came to the conclusion, that I mentioned to Frank
a month ago or so that Beck was simply a drunk who had sobered up and
had been able to do so without taking anything other than the first half
of step one, and the middle third of step twelve. In other words, he had
admitted he was "...powerless over alcohol...", and then set out "...to
carry this message to alcoholics.<---period" Thus end of AA involvement.
I perceived him as simply another "Bar Stool Blowhard" 'nd scat talker
who had traded in his bar stool for another perch or medium from which
to talk *scat* and then found a way make money by doing it, and most
importantly be able to spew *scat* with out it *rotting* his tongue, and
not be plagued with non of them old restraining *principles, ethics,
values or constraints of conscience" which usually or sometime come with
that *Spiritual Awakening" that sometime afflicts those who do make a
sincere effort at taking the steps as outlined in the book to the best
of their ability.
In short, kind of like a horse thief or bank robber who came to realize
that *drinking* was interfering with their horse stealing or bank
robbing ability, so they plugged the jug in order to become a *better*
horse thief or bank robber. ;-)
Haven't seen an episode of Glen Beck since. No particular excuse or
reason other than...
I just haven't gone looking for him. ;-)
Same way with Limbaugh, Imus, or any of the opposite sides of the coin
on the Liberal side of the fence.
Heard Limbaugh talk once when Bill Clinton was running for President
once back in early nineties. Had a Belly full in about ten minutes, and
never did go looking for him again.
Don't recall ever wishing any harm or finding *humor* in the possibility
of it though for either or any of them.
I gather news from CNN, MSNBC, Fox, Canadian Sources, BBC, 'nd several
other foreign and domestic sources. Not the commentaries, nor so called
talking heads or Op Ed. stuff, or the "let us teach you what you need to
think about what is happening in the world around you" venue.
I kid or poke fun at folly quite often on ARAA, do a lot of satire on
the human condition, paint a lot of caricatures of some really comic or
pathetic characters in composites or graffiti murals on walls, earned
reputation 'nd sometimes nomer of "Sideways Charlie" for my *sometime*
called vicious ad Ad Hominem attacks on particular persons with never
having mentioned they names in print. I guess I jest got a way with "got
a goat" or "shot a gloat" thet seems to *piss* some folk off. ;-)
But... What me worry? ;-)
Kinda like Sawyer Brown sang...
Well good ole' boys don't get no breaks
And rich boys think they got what it takes
But there's someone for each of us they say
I do a lot of my so called etiology of feces. CIS type stuff to
determine *how* *scat* *happens* and do a lot of picking it up off the
ground and breaking it apart and analyzing it to try to see or figure
out what *the* *animals* eat here on ARAA. Jest a *part* time avocation
spurred by a curiosity as to whut makes people tick, keeping in mind I'm
one of them *people* who is still ticking re my comment the other day,
that if I gonna paint a mural of the human race or human condition I'd
best not paint myself out of it. ;-)
I guess I do about the same with the *media* or news these days.
What am I trying to say? Dunno. I'm just sitting around passing time
waiting for a phone call or e-mail to let me know if something I
suggested worked or if I or we are going to need to go back to the
drawing board.
Nothing of any *earth* *shaking* import. I won't get paid monetarily for
it. Just be a good warm feeling down in my tummy kind of like Dr. Jess
Lair described in one of his first books, don't remember which, but I do
recall reading *all* of them to include..
"I ain't much, baby--but I'm all I've got."
"I Ain't Well But I Sure Am Better: Mutual Need Therapy"
"Ain't I a wonder ... and ain't you a wonder, too!"
"I don't know where I'm going, but I sure ain't lost"
"Hey, God, what should I do now?"
"Sex: If I Didn't Laugh I'd Cry"
"How to Have A Perfect Marriage"
"Hey God What Should I Do Now"
It is said that Dr. Jess espoused such things as are advocated in the 12
steps of Alcoholics Anonymous while not speaking directly to only
alcoholics or addicts.

In ways, him and I got lot of life parallels in small ways. sure as hell
not in the way of success at avocations or ventures, but kinda 'long
lines of *emotional* 'nd coping with the world around me and my own,
*internal* disturbances. It was a heart attack that changed his for the
better. It was eventually a heart attack the took him out, but he
survived for about a productive 1/4 century from the first to the last.
I'm about 2 1/2 years shy of that now, 14 of it have been the most
productive years of my life, 'cause my first heart attack didn't git my
attention enough to cause me to stop drinking or inspire a desire to
effect any change in my life or lifestyle or way of looking at the world
around me. One finally did, get my attention.
And the call I been waiting for while I pecking on the keyboard, a
*ranting* on ARAA fer sumpin to fill up the *idle* time came through.
Gotta go back to the drawing board 'nd try sumpin else....
Going golfing this morning?
