Sarah Palin
(with apologies to Tom Lehrer)
The loveliest girl in Wasilla
The best shot with balls or a gun
Of moose and incumbents a killa'
She's gutted both during her run
Granny-glassed Gibson derided
As he queried 'bout Anwar Sadat
She gleefully said "It's decided"
"We're drilling in ANWR; that's that!"
Sarah Palin
Oh the Netroots are a'wailin'
Is it your frosted lipgloss
That infuriates Wonkette and Kos?
Andrew Sullivan's having a hissy fit
(He's risen to Top Bottom Feeder)
He wants to see the birth certificate
For one must take care with a Breeder
The Media chooses well said words
As they polish their "impartial" sheen
They ignored the tale of John Edwards
To focus on tort'ring a teen
Sarah Palin
Your intimate life they're detailing
Seeking the Great Mother Lode
As their tilted heads jointly explode
Your speech wowed folks at the Convention
But the Minions of One started chidin'
"All the words were not her own invention"
Like the speeches of their glorious Biden
Her selection now threatened Obama
Who's candidacy seemed heaven sent
He said "I'm the one true re-forma;
I've courageously voted 'Present!'"
Sarah, Sarah
Is this the dawn of a new era?
Are women now free to be...free?
The "Progressives" are bitchin'
"Get back in the kitchen!"
"No Amazon for our VP!"

That man can rock the keys.

A Joyous And Wonderful Easter To You All
I'll be off the radar for a few days, so I just want to wish all of you a wonderful and peaceful Easter.
In that spirit I'll leave you with these two wonderful recordings by Beniamino Gigli. When I want power, I want Caruso; but no one, no one, has ever caressed a song like Gigli.
Be safe, y'all.

Frank, I Miss Ya
Close your eyes, and at 3 minutes or so in listen to the solo and see if you guess the instrument.
An amazing sound.

Ah-OOOOOOOH! Werewolf Of London...
(with apologies to Warren Zevon)
I saw a werewolf with a Mersey Beat in her hands
Walking through the streets of Soho in the rain
She was looking for the Squire of Mull of Kintyre
Planning to get herself pounds from Penny Lane
Ah-ooooooh
Werewolf of London
Ah-ooooooh
If you hear her howling 'round your kitchen door
Better not let her in
She won't need or feed you when you're 64
Werewolf of London again
Ah-ooooooh
Werewolf of London
Ah-ooooooh
She's the golden-tressled gal who married Alfie Karmal
Lately she's been on the phone in Brighton
Don't you take pics of her
She'll rip your film out sir
Huh. She ain't the new Diana
Ah-ooooooh
Werewolf of London
Ah-ooooooh
Well I saw her crying 'bout piggies in a pen
Doing the Werewolf of London
I heard her cryin' "this is now and that was then"
Doing the Werewolf of London
I saw a Werewolf dancing a merengue with the Stars
Her steps were perfect
Ha!
Ah-ooooooh
Werewolf of London
Ah-ooooooh
Heh Draw Blood...
