Just Hanging Out

 



Just hanging out in Dallas, Lao Tze style, enjoying the porch




Good thing there's a handy leaf blade knife, right?




Blue agrees, he's up for a treat scrap

In other news, the appalling Salman Rushdie's been stabbed by some outta control Jihadist. Rushdie wrote the aggressively annoying Satanic Verses and incurred a Fatwah. Well, looks like it caught up with him. Bad luck, Rushdie.

I met the bizarrely annoying Rushdie back in the '90s at some place in London. He was with the even more annoying Malcolm McLaren, who distinguished itself by wearing fancy shirts without cuff-links. Whoa, what a radical.

The intenselt irritating McLaren died in 2010, Rushdie still lives.

All best,

Tossing names I must look up. McLaren. I thought the name familiar, but, no, previous knowledge must have been the automotive McLaren with a famous Scots name, Bruce. That Malcom fellow seemed, from the little I read at Wikipedia, an oxygen thief. The 1960s and ‘70s were filled with men and women filled with themselves, having organic or acquired education and/or knowledge far above that of we mortal deplorables. When I remember, I give thanks to G-d that two of my ancestors were transported to the Virginia Colony in 1750, having run afoul of laws, as determined by an English judge.

Honestly surprised he's lasted 30 years...

Ah, Sgt., a Virginian! My Mother's people are too, partly.

Malcom, perhaps prescient, curiously. He cut a poor figure in the '90s, imo.

It is odd, NFO.
