“They saw their injured country's woe;
The flaming town, the wasted field;
Then rushed to meet the insulting foe;
They took the spear, - but left the shield.”
Your friend, Lacan, looks utterly repugnant. I don't care how "smart" you think he is, he always looks as though he hasn't washed his ugly, chronically derisive, sour, cynical-looking face in at least ten full years. I'm sure too his armpits, genitalia and and perineum must stink like a barnyard. And I'd hate to get within fifteen of his sure-to-be malodorous breath.
If our bodies are supposed to function as "The Temple of the Holy Ghost," these scummy, offensively unkempt, atheistic twentieth-century atheistic, crypto-Marxist European –– mostly German Jewish and French "intellectuals" have obviously taken considerable pains to let SATAN know he is most welcome to park his carcass there and work to DISPOSSESS Almighty God.
These unsavory characters you seem to admire, and whom II instinctively ABHOR, I bleve have been a MALIGNANT influence on good old Western Civ.
And if you want to cast aspersions on me for not reading their crap "in depth," go ahead, but I'll simply repeat for the umpteenth time that "I don't ave eat a pound shit to know it desn't taste good!"
Thanks again, dear Bitch Cassidy, late of FPM, for that memorable, profoundly wise observation!
And for once Gert and I agree: "TOMMY" is one of the most wretched, malodorous pieces of excrement produced –– in a frighteningly regrettable era when nearly everything ELSE in the field qualified as disgusting, demented, depraved, deplorable, dispiriting and degenerate.
In short "TOMMY" really eally SUCKS!
However, if I TURN OFF the sounSOUND and just watch Ann Margret go through her gymnastic gyrations it suddenly becomes more than a bit tolerable.
That girl was QUITE a DISH in her day, wasn't she? Ony a fool would fail to admit that. Hard to believe she's an old, old woman now.
What do Sex Symbols do with themselves once they lose their physical charms?
Do you realize Marilyn Monroe would be NINETY-FOUR now if she were still alive?
Would any of her fans from days of yore want to have to see THAT?
Maybe we ought to THANK the Kennedys for arranging her murder, eh?
Thanks to them we can always have Marilyn,–– ageless - immortal - frozen in time, - eternally desirable.
But God, what a price SHE had to pay for achieving that brand immortality!
Do most old women stop enjoying sex Once the saggy baggy phase sets in? Could any potent male regard these wrecks As outlets for the joys of carnal sin?
Lechery in randy, aging goats Arises at the thought of flesh still fresh –– Softly rounded curves and slim white throats Not too long departed from the creche.
Ironic that old pussies cracked and wizened Still dream of ardent service from Fair Youth, But no matter how these crones appear bedizened ‘Tis just their cash that lures, and that’s the truth.
The resource that best sustains us when we’re old Is found in vaults replete with jewels and gold.
'Tommy' has to be up there in the top 10 pantheon of Worst Movies Evah!
ReplyDeleteI'm more a fan of the play... My son played the 10 year old Tommy 20+ years ago.
ReplyDeleteThe Lacanian "Mirror Stage" is a bad place to get "stuck"... especially at my age. ;)
Gimme 'Quadrophenia' (the album) any day...

ReplyDeleteDo most old women stop enjoying sex
Once the saggy baggy phase sets in?
Could any potent male regard these wrecks
As outlets for the joys of carnal sin?
Lechery in randy, aging goats
Arises at the thought of flesh still fresh ––
Softly rounded curves and slim white throats
Not too long departed from the creche.
Ironic that old pussies cracked and wizened
Still dream of ardent service from Fair Youth,
But no matter how these crones appear bedizened
‘Tis just their cash that lures, and that’s the truth.
The resource that best sustains us when we’re old
Is found in vaults replete with jewels and gold.

Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend
ReplyDeleteThe French are glad to die for love
They delight in fighting duels
But I prefer a man who lives
And gives expensive jewels
A kiss on the hand
May be quite continental
But diamonds are a girl's best friend
A kiss may be grand
But it won't pay the rental
On your humble flat
Or at the automat
Men grow cold
As girls grow old
And we all lose our charms in the end
But square-cut or pear-shaped
These rocks don't loose their shape
Diamonds are a girl's best friend
[Tiffany's!
Cartier!
Black, Starr, Frost Gorham!
Talk to me Harry Winston
Tell me all about it!]
There may come a time
When a lass needs a lawyer
But diamonds are a girl's best friend
There may come a time
When a hard-boiled employer
Thinks you're awful nice
But get that ice or else no dice
He's your guy
When stocks are high
But beware when they start to descend
It's then that those louses
Go back to their spouses
Diamonds are a girl's best friend
I've heard of affairs
That are strictly platonic
But diamonds are a girl's best friend
And I think affairs
That you must keep liaisonic
Are better bets
If little pets get big baguettes
Time rolls on
And youth is gone
And you can't straighten up when you bend
But stiff back
Or stiff knees
You stand straight at Tiffany's
Diamonds! Diamonds!
I don't mean rhinestones!
But diamonds are a girl's best friend!@

ReplyDeleteFood Safety Tip:
ReplyDeleteNever eat your food before applying the proper condiments.
...but again, not the best movie...
ReplyDeleteI watched it again recently and couldn't believe just how bad it was (as a kid I adored it!)
Perhaps a case of 'cobbler stick to thy trade!' ?
Everyone wants to be R. Wagner....
