January 20, 2005Introducing The Helpful PsychicAmong my other amazing abilities, such as the ability to walk down the street without falling down AND the ability to twirl my index finger in a circular motion signifying the start of the second half, I can also see the future. Some of you less than fervent believers may scoff at such a notion. Hah, I say to you. It's true. I understand some reticence, of course, after all the list of false claims in this category is long and illustrious...such as: Burt Reynolds (in the movie, Zardoz) who claimed: "I have seen the future and it doesnt work". He was wrong, the future worked just fine. Or Jon Landau in Rolling Stone magazine, many moons ago, who proclaimed: "I have seen the future of rock n roll and it is Bruce Springsteen". Of course, Landau went on to become Springsteen's manager so you'd have to cut his rampant optimism a little slack. No, my fine feathered faithful readers, I am the real deal. So dim the lights, pull back the curtain, caress the silver ball and watch as I prove my worthiness as The Helpful Psychic: This is where we're all headed, if we dont watch out. Thank you, thank you, you're much too kind, I'll be here all week except on Monday and Tuesday, be sure to tip your bartender and cocktail waitress, after all, they work hard for the money.... UPDATE: It's only a matter of time before someone points out that it wasnt Burt Reynolds who starred in Zardoz but Sean Connery. Well, I may be psychic but I never claimed to be accurate....heh heh heh Posted by Mr. Helpful at January 20, 2005 07:15 PMComments
Unbelievable. So watching ads is what's making those European children fat!!? Are you sure it's not listening to "Born to Run"? Posted by: barbara on January 20, 2005 08:29 PMWell, G-d forbid, that we as parents should actually shove fruit and veggies down our kid's throats. Those Big Macs and KFC are just too tasty to resist. And, how can you tell the little buggers 'no'? They're just so adorable when they hit that chubby phase. And, exercise? No! I don't want junior getting all winded before we go out to Mickey D's for dinner. It might ruin his appetite. Besides, it's just 'baby-fat', he'll grow out of it... Posted by: jmflynny on January 20, 2005 08:32 PMSo it's just getting the kiddies fat... nothing about the parents in there. But what am I saying, it must be the media causing all of this. Guess none of us need to exercise or exercise our right to sustain from these foods. (excuse the sarcasm, I just can't believe what I read sometimes.)
