2. No caption. Just amazement at the irony. There's a big cosmic
karmic joke hidden in here somewhere.

I just can't come up with the punch line.

3. You are very right.
And I can't come up with it either.

But . . . while we're waiting for the irony to sink in, would it be too much to ask the boy-king to brush his damned teeth???

:wtf:

"Hey fellas, just one thing, Colonel Sanders wasn't Asian."

"Did you happen to bring along any of his fried chicken?"

"'Just chickenhawk', hey fellas what does that mean?"

Cracker Barrel Philosopher

What do ya think of your boy now? And we didn't have to make it up!



My favorite is VVAW member Joe Bangert:
Joe Bangert traveled from Philadelphia to the meeting and said the idea of killing was contrary to a group whose officers often closed correspondence with lines such as "peace and love and nonviolent action."

"We were rebelling. We were decompressing from our time in Vietnam," Bangert said. "But we were incapable of doing violence."
Joe's now a Kerry campaign worker, but he used to decompress by having songfests with the North Vietnamese:
Dear Sister Peggy,

Greetings from Cape Cod! My name is Joe Bangert, and I eyed your name on the email list from an email I received today from a mutual friend- Barbara Dane- and was motivated to introduce myself to you and tell you- apart from my love of both you and your brother's musical and artistic contributions to at least three generations of my family- how gratified I am to share with you my deep admiration of Ewan's 'Ballad of Ho Chi Minh'.

Sure I learned it by heart- after returning home from my stint as a door gunner on a Marine helicopter in Quang Tri, Viet Nam circa 1969. Six months later I upped and joined the Vietnam Veterans Against the War (VVAW), and later met Barbara in Paris at the World Assembly for the Peace and Independence of the Indochinese Peoples at Versailles. We had a great banquet with the diplomatic delegations of both the DRVN and the PRGSVN and later some music began- Barbara sang the 'Song of the Coats' and the only song the young boisterous delegation from the USA could all agree on singing together by heart when asked to sing 'an American worker's song' was "Mercedes Benz" by Janis Joplin.

Barbara then asked me to join her on the stage- for I had boldly decided to wear a close fitting shirt which had emblazened on the front of it- the flag of the National Liberation Front of south Viet Nam.

It was then that I belted out both "We Will Liberate the South" (Giai Phong Mien Nam) the national anthem of the NLF in Vietnamese- for I am a linguist- and ended that portion of the show with the Ballad of Uncle Ho. It was a show stopper to say these least-

Since then I have sang Ewan's delightful song over one thousand times indeed- and when I was working back in Viet Nam, in Ha Noi from 1992-1997 I had the occasion to sing it and teach it to virtually thousands upon thousands of younger Vietnamese boys and girls-

I always give Ewan the credit for penning it. I just wanted you to know that this song rocks even in 2002~!


Best Regards,

Joe Bangert


Pond scum, one and all.

But there's good news. Maybe Joe can get Lurch to give us the tune for old times' sake.
