PETER’S LAST THOUGHT FOR THE NIGHT

Why does the sheer QUANTITY of people in existence at least triple around the holidays? Where the hëll did all these people come from? At least I understand the concept of whose birthday is being celebrated. People walked into the local Borders, saw that the check out line stretched from the front of the store all the way to the back, and kept saying, “Jesus Christ!”

HE’S ON HIS WAY

Al Gore’s son, Al Gore III, was arrested for possession of pot. Last year he was arrested for driving under the influence.

All we can say is, Keep it up, AG III! If history is any barometer, this kind of behavior could be your road to the Presidency.

GEEZ, IT’S QUIET

On the first night of Chanukah, Kathleen and Caroline are down visiting with Kath’s folks in Atlanta…Ariel is with her mom this weekend…Shana and Gwen will be coming to visit, but not until Monday.

So it’s me and the cats.

Yes…that’s right. I’m all alone for the entire weekend. I can do anything. ANYTHING! I can go wild! I can…I can…sleep late! And…and work! Yes, work! Ahhh, but then, I can cruise around and pick up…presents! For the family, yes! Mwaaahahaha! I’m on fire now! And tomorrow night…tomorrow night’s the berserk night! Tomorrow night…I’LL GO BOWLING! AS LATE AS I WANT! Or, y’know, until they turn on those stupid disco lights, and then I’ll go home and work some more. And…and maybe stay up until midnight, at which point I’ll…I’ll watch a rerun of “West Wing!”

Yes, I’m out of control.

PETER’S LAST THOUGHT FOR THE NIGHT

I think they should take all the people wandering the streets of New York City who mutter to themselves and have them wear hands-free cell phones on their heads so they look like they’re talking to someone and won’t be so disturbing.

WHAT SAURON’S BEEN UP TO

After watching “Return of the King” (more thoughts upon which I’ll write up tomorrow) I was suddenly hit with a realization.

Sauron is alive and well and is the secret mastermind behind CBS television.

You doubt me? You think that’s ridiculous? Ah, but consider:

The CBS symbol–A giant, unblinking eye, focused on the hearts and minds of America.

CBS Headquarters–a gigantic, ebony tower, oftentimes referred to as Black Rock.

The initials–CBS=Created By Sauron.

Both have major spokesmen with three syllable names ending with “man” (Saruman=Letterman)

Coincidence? I think not.
