I Went as One and Came Back as Two. I Went as One and Came Back as Zero








  • Planet's home for Spring Break. Had dinner last night with Hamster, Ilse, Landru (who ordered the above bacon lollypops), and SeatSix at MOCOs trendiest restaurant, Founding Frauders. Trace the Waiter was deeply disappointed in me. Ilse ordered the chili and Trace said, Excellent. Landru ordered the chicken something and Trace said, Good choice. Planet ordered the chicken w/waffles and Trace said, Very Nice. Both Earthgirl and Hamster ordered the spatchcock chicken, Earthgirl with one type of glaze, Hamster another, Trace was delighted with both their choices. SeatSix ordered the rockfish and Trace said, Well chosen! I ordered the fish and chips and Trace frowned. Dessert: Ilse ordered the caramel and peanut butter pie and Trace said, Excellent. Landru ordered the carrot cake and Trace said, Good choice. Planet ordered the pistachio ice cream and Trace said, Very nice. Earthgirl ordered the bourbon and something ice cream, Hamster the berry sorbet, Trace was delighted by both their choices. SeatSix ordered the house cappuccino and Trace said, Well chosen! I ordered a decaf coffee and Trace frowned.

CONTINUOUS BULLETS OVER FLATTENED EARTH

Linh Dinh

Like horizontal couriers of a vertical fate,
Like troop rotations at a service station,
Like English lessons at Guantanamo,
Like draping towels onto a bronze head,
Like spraying love onto the sand.
I went as one and came back as two.
I went as one and came back as zero.

  1. C. Pierce:

    This is going to be a more than occasional series on the blog from now until whenever the administration leaves office. So this is the first entry. We can help President Obama today by explaining as LOUDLY as we can that he shouldn't lead this country so far into the quagmire of extrajudicial killing that it never finds its way out again.


    I'd say Pierce is a few years late to the party. Not that it matters much.

    P.S. Regarding Limbaugh and the anti-dissent bill, you could say much the same about the GOP threat to take contraception away and Obama's final capitulation to the banksters a few weeks ago.

  2. P.S. I expect Trace the Waiter will be leaving derogatory comments here.
