Round and round and down it goes
The markets are all flailing.
It's time Wall Street greed was opposed
To keep our banks from failing.
So now we turn to one who knows
We'll listen to what he's saying.
Who'll slay those giants, you suppose?
John Quixote and Sancho Palin.

1. Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain - Shaft (3:15)
Hey ho, and another Friday night. We're going to play a game: how much can I drink without puking?
The
stock market is fluctuating more than the EEG of an epileptic during a
seizure and I work for a bank. La la la. Meanwhile, there are roving
bands of frothing conservatives throughout the midwest and they're
demanding blood. I'm going to play some jazz and we're all going to
chill out.

Vodka
and "Endurance" flavored Vitamin Water (peach and mango) tastes a lot
like a peach bellini. All this water and vitamin B may be
counter-effecting the drinking I'm trying to do tonight. I have noticed
the bottle is getting lighter and lighter.
Meanwhile, listening
to the debate on Tuesday, I heard a vocal pattern from McCain that
reminded me of something. It may have been an imitation of Regan's
shambling corpse or Nixon's warble. It's hard to place.

Hope
everyone had a good Yom Kippur. That's a day of fasting and resting.
Also, no bathing, no anointing with oils or perfumes, and no wearing

A
PINT OF VODKA! I didn't throw up, but I was pretty sure I'd had enough.
Maybe not a full pint, a half-liter at least. It's enough. We'll see
what the effect is, besides playing the 26th amendment twice and then
trying to justify it by saying it's really really really important that
people remember this one, which, by the way, Texas and Arkansas never
ratified. At the time of this amendment's passage, only five states
still retained a poll tax: Virginia, Alabama, Texas, Arkansas, and
Mississippi. Mississippi rejected the amendment. There ya go:
edutainment.

A
final note: I did not have a hangover when I woke up, but I did have
some weird dreams. Nonetheless, it's not the kind of thing to make a
habit. I even watched "Rhinoceros" with Gene Wilder and Zero Mostel this
afternoon to remind myself of the perils of drinking. Oh! Thou foul
demon alcohol.
