Wordless Wednesday: Return of the Grievous Pancake

Bloodshot blueberry eyes, leaking strawberry tears.

It's a sad day when comfort food needs to be comforted. Perhaps the musical accompaniment can provide spiritual sustenance for our battered (thank you, Stephanie) friend.

Meezer Monday: All I Want Is Everything

I envy Derrick and Bing sometimes. They don't have to worry about what to wear every day (though Bing does have a set of devil horns, a top hat and a baby blue hoodie with skulls from the Martha Stewart Collection), and they aren't weighed down by the desire for material possessions.

To some degree we're all addicted to buying stuff, to getting that bag and carrying around what's in it, even if it's just some crappy hair gel and gummy worms. Why, that's what makes us good Americans after all! Like, the stores all closed early on Saturday 'cause of Hurricane Irene, and on Sunday I saw people forlornly walking the streets, all sad-sack and jonesing cause there was nothing to BUY. I watched a family sprint to CVS when they saw it had opened, practically gasping for air as they set their sights on Pringles and Blistex (random items to be sure, but they kinda go together, don't they? Especially if we're talking pizza-flavored Pringles).

At least with cats, their thrills are relatively cheap. Derrick loves his rainbow catnip cigar, but I don't think he thinks about it when it's not there. Nor does he need to get it in multiple colors and styles, or worry that they'll stop making the rainbow stripe kind and life will never be the same again.

The Q, as interpreted by anthropomorphized sea life, remindin' us what it's really all about:




And all the world is biscuit-shaped…

Wordless Wednesday: Tower of Babble

I got this postcard at the good ol’ now-defunct Tower Records on East 4th and Broadway, and never mailed it because I am a triple Taurus and wanted it all for myself. (Why didn’t I take more than one? They were free!) I tried to think of the various records I purchased there, and the first one that came to mind was a Johnny Thunders EP with “Green Onions” and this:



Oh. Em. Gee. No way can I leave you with that! Here’s a song that goes much better with the 3 kitties, doncha think?
