But we’re not here to yuck anyone’s yum...
—Scottie Andrew and Leah Asmelash, CNN
(from “The pop culture moments ...
we couldn’t forget if we tried”)
this, the third of four mood movements,
is as dire as it is lame. cut to the chase,
bozo, it’s telepathy. surprised? so was i,
back when things got hippity hopping, as
they say. don’t they say that? sometimes
my wires get a bit crossed. or cross. but
intuiting is key here. it’s a gift. it’s a curse.
but for better or worse, we must learn the
ropes in this profession. them’s the breaks,
as they say. don’t they say that? uh oh.
and yes is your answer. don’t worry,
sonny. if you’re worth a grain, you, too,
can be right on top of this extra sensory
protection thing soon enough. all it takes
is confidence. concentration. a whole lot
of constipation. and the ability to hold your
breath for significantly longer than you did
when you were a kid playing all of those
underwater games. or were they under
wear games. you’ve got what they call a
shield, sonny. be proud of that. and i’m
here to remove it. permanently. there’ll
be none of that nonsense in these chamb
ers. none of that. at all. do you hear me?
notice carefully how my lips are not moving.
oh, for pete’s sake don’t pass out on me,
sonny! sonny? oh, my stars, it’s going to
be a long week. and this only monday. poo!
