I was feeling suicidal the other day. I was
all ready to kill myself. I had the noose tied and everything.
Then I realized it was just heartburn. Boy, was I relieved.
So I sat down in front of the canvas I was working
on trying to figure out how the hell one goes about painting a realistic
kidney. The painting was to be entitled Guts and I had already managed
a convincing set of lungs. I was racking my brains, but I couldn't
for the life of me conceive any conception on kidneys. I was on the
verge of sacrificing my roommate in the name of Art when I realized that
most people don't know what the hell a kidney's supposed to look like anyway.
So I painted a pocket-watch instead. Boy, was my roommate relieved.
Speaking of time, I want a clock that has thirteen
hours on it instead of twelve. I never seem to have as much time
to do things as I would like. And while I'm on the subject of wanting,
I think I'll mention the fact that total world peace is a good idea.
But only if I get to be the leader, otherwise it wouldn't be much fun.
For me, anyway. If I were the leader, I would demand equal rights
for inanimate objects. After all, they're people too. And what's
all this about inanimate objects? There's no such thing! Everything
moves, molecules are constantly churning. And why don't people churn
their own butter anymore? And why did they apply the name Butterball
to a turkey? And why don't turkeys come from Turkey, and hamburgers
from Hamburg, and french fries from France? And what's so cool about
Denver that it should get an omelette named after it? And do they
call it a Denver omelette in Denver?
I know why the Mona Lisa smiles. Davinci's
assistant was making bunny ears behind his head. Who wouldn't smile?
I think people should eat rabbit for Easter. I think people should
eat a big fat old guy with a beard for Christmas. And for Thanksgiving?
An Indian and a Pilgrim. Light meat or dark? If you're going
to be a hypocrite, might as well go all the way!
