An incomplete thought. 9/15/2012

“So I’m sitting there on the group W bench, with painters, ya know Artist sitting chatting with other painters, chit chat, chit chat, saying you have to paint like the paint is free.

(Yeah big whoop, it ain’t , Jack)

And they nod a knowing know and look concerned and feel for their brethren.

Well I’m here to offer hope for the young ones,

Just a few verses.

3.14 Paint like you stole it. (They can’t take it back.  Ahem, Be prepared to pay restitution.)

6.20 Paint like They will steal it! (You can track them by the wet paint)

4.17 Paint like Ayn Rand is coming to verify your bona fides! (Every Republican within walking distance will come to visit.) (Oh and you will go to jail, with a fine.))

What Fresh Hell - Noah & Gomorrah 8-2012

And an OTHER thing: 

I think it all started over to Termites of Sin and moved to Banquet of Consequences.

But let us back up several days to when Intelli on the comments of Banquet of Consequences, suggested a recreation of Sodom & Gomorrah.  Yeah Buddy, I am all in! 

But then I got to thinkin’ ‘bout things and stuff.  So, I go into my library and retrieve my (my) bible of the shelf where I keep it for handy reference.  Now JJ, hush, Mr. C, don’t even start, walkin’ man, you most likely will understand, the lady commenters, it goes without sayin', will fully understand.  So like I was sayin’ I got the bible my mother gave to me in 1960 (note on the fly page) and like any good son I have kept it all those years. I used it for reference while listening to Southern Baptist Preachers.  And for the fact that if a son throws away a bible his mother gave him he will instantly understand what Elliot meant by Burnt Norton.  

Anyway Genesis chapters 6, 7 and 8 cover the flood and the Deweeb Noah.  

Now the part about S&G, but first another digression.  The aforementioned bible is what is called the Scofield Reference Bible (Authorized KJV) edited by Rev. C. I. Scofield, D.D.  This has a great cross-reference in the back of various topics.  I use to listen to the preacher as he (always a He) pounded on the bible and waved it ‘round like a sword raised in anger and when he gave me a topic I would go to the cross reference and look up the topic to find what was stated in other books of the B.  So, SO   , Imagine my surprise just today, when I could not find Sodom (ok I’ll spot your prudes that one) or Gomorrah.  I had to look under wicked to even get close.  Turns out it is in the 19^th chapter of Genesis. 

Ok here is the deal, God was gonna destroy every blooded life form (warm and cold no plants) on the face of the planet. (They call it earth) ‘Cause they were evil, but he wimped out ‘cause he was gay for Noah.  Blah, blah, blah fast forward to Sodom and Gomorrah  where God was gonna destroy the entire towns of S&G, but pulled his punch (no pun) ‘cause he was Gay for Lot.  

By the way Lot had already given his daughters to total strangers to screw their lights out just to please that same God.  Guess it worked.  Wonder what the daughters thought about his God. Damn!  Anyway I say let’s all get on the S&G expressway to hell.  ‘cause it looks like the Wimp ain’t gonna destroy D.C.  Hey is that why it is called Washington D.C.

Oh, so why do we have races if ONLY one Human family was allowed on the boat? 

Ah Never Mind.

Thank you for reading this ramble.

The What’s left of the right Rev. Punch.

Ps where do hermaphrodites come from?  Is that God’s answer to the constant prayer by most Americans yellin’ at the political ads, ‘Go Fuck Yourself”.

Punch Brothers (no relation) - A Musical Interlude. 6/24/12

Sunday Morning.
It is raining here in South Florida.
We are lookin' for upwards of 6" of God's rising tide.
But we can hold it all. Bring it.
 (well except for the damn leak, I meant to fix last year.
Damnit to hell, but hey, it's only once a year.

Now,
I would suggest setting down with a cup of your choice and
just hear these cats (they used to say 'gone cats' back in the day).
They are playing J. S. Bach! Note for Note!!
(He is a Famous Dead Guy!)

These gone cats
are full on.
(just my opinion, i could be wrong)

Stuttgart, (6/11/12) third desultory group of photographs. 6.21.12

Now, I ask you do the letters on the left

 form a word, different, from the letters on the right?

Or? 

Has someone absconded with the first letter on the left?

Or?

Has someone added a letter to the word on the right?

Beats me.

The following are of the Library in Stuttgart.

The Library of Stuttgart.

Le Magnifique. 

In Germany.  This is the Word for Science Fiction

Stuttgart (shot june 11, 2012) a second desultory grouping of photos.

My dear friend, mentor and royal pain JadedJ seemed to be bitchin' 'bout me not taking enough photos of Stuttgart.  So it seems that in order to accommodate his boring lame ass I have to post like a son of a bitch.  Well my mother was a wonderful loving woman and certainly not a bitch, it just appears that on occasion I seem to impersonate one.  But I digress.


Photos from Stuttgart with comments...

Make no mistake Stuttgart is the Home of Mercedes.

That symbol shown just above is the vertical line at the top of the train station.  

The vertical tower in the center distance.

It rotates and is lighted.

Porsche is just down the road a piece. 

What a city park is all about.

Bruschetta

You want Bruschetta?

You talkin' to me?

Even the women are bigger than life in Stuttgart.

A line drawing I found very nice.  

It was etched in the glass in das Rathaus.

They say it right out loud.  

This is the government building sign. 

Yo, JJ seems like that want the schmuck to call home.

It was closed.  

But my money is on a nice Martini just beyond the locked door.

I told you the women were bigger than life.

Stuttgart June 2012. A desultory grouping of photographs.

Jesus H. Christ 6/1/2012

So I was talking to friend the other day and I was 'splanin' something or other and I said, for emphasis "Jesus H. Christ"!  She then asked "what does the H. stand for? 
I was bumfuzzeled.  What does it stand for?  
Please leave all comments for the world to understand the origin of this most revered of prayers.

Juxtaposition 5/10/2012 Not for chilren. (sic)

Sometimes when I see stuff posted that dis-respects the current president I get frustrated.
I mean the guy is doing a job with very little help. 
Anyway, be that as it may, I saw a little piece on the Social Media (?, what's with that, are they all commies?) that dis'ed the POTUS.  
Just Who the Hell are These guys THAT will stop at nothing.


Got my back up.  
I ripped them off. 
made me laugh.

but then I went the extra mile, 
ya know like the Good Book Says:
To Wit:

Clowns to the left of me,
Jokers to the right,
Here I Am.

*Authors note: the extra mile.

May First 2012

Mr. Charleston has posted a very photogenic essay regarding South Florida.

He has color by the short hair. 

His eye is excellent.  

His timing is pushin’

Ergo I have to post, or rather feel I must.

He is the photographer for Travels with Charlie.

I, on the other hand, am Atget’s student, with an attention deficient.

To Wit:

You had to be there.

Emily 4/24/12

This is from the Hood on a 1935 Rolls for the Raj to go hunting in.  I'll show the full car at the bottom.
I have heard that Emily is solid stirling.  This is the first one I have see with a slight tarnish.  Now I am a believer.
Bring those wings closer.

When the Raj honked the horn people got out of the way.

I don't know if Duke ever made it to the Hunt, but they had a gun for him.

Turns out people got out of the way for more reasons than some Horn Honking.

Thomas Jefferson 4/3/2012 'Nuff said.

I hope we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our monied corporations which dare already to challenge our government to a trial by strength, and bid defiance to the laws of our country.

No Particular order to the photos. More or less follow the flow of the crowd.
I toured less than half of the show and reached full sensory overload.
