Calling All Pervs

 

Matt Stone and Trey Parker, the creators of the consistently brilliant South Park, also created the adventures of Princess, a cute little puppy who watches her family do obscene things. Princess is funny in the other sense of the word and rated X in the exact sense of the word. Though the production of episode one was actually paid for by Comedy Central, no network on earth ever has or ever will show it, and for good reason. Find out why.

 

Ironies of the Week

 

A film about a man who comes back from the dead and lives forever by watching his followers pretend to eat his body in holy communion has been knocked off the number one spot in the charts by a film about millions of people who come back from the dead and actually eat the followers of the man who came back from the dead (and everyone else).

 

The GOP warned us what would happen if Gore was elected in 2000.

 

1. We would go to war.
2. The national debt would soar.
3. The US economy would plummet.
4. The stock market would plunge.
5. Unemployment would be rampant.
6. The US dollar would quickly decline in value.
7. We would have a huge budget deficit.

They were right. Gore won and all those things happened.

Backwards Fan Mail

 

    I noticed in #95 ( I'm perennially a few weeks late) that you provided a link to a site that claims to unmask satanic messages in backwards lyrics. Now I'm not saying that this never exists, but I went to that sight to check it out, and let me assure you that every one that I listened to was actually nothing but the sound of the words backwards. I am a bit of an expert on backwards sounds, as my best friend in college and I spent hours and hours recording phonetically backwards scripts into a tape recorder and playing them backwards.

    The confusion seems to stem from the mind's desire to create familiarity out of chaos (what Robert Sheckley calls "metaphoric deformation"). The same capacity that makes people see faces in chaotic scenes-- probably the beginnings of inventing "spirits" and "gods" everywhere - takes the ambiguous sounds produced by backwards consonants and superimposes "words" that sound similar. This is especially true for sounds like "p" and "t" in which air is expelled after the attack. A "t" backwards sounds like "hhht" (the hhhh being a sucking sound), etc. Couple this with the way many rock vocalists slur words due to whatever chemical alterations they have undergone or just for effect, and you have fertile ground for metaphoric deformation.

    "Number 9" is a good example. The words "Number nine" backwards sound like "neon urbmun" which was then morphed into "Turn Me On, Dead Man". The Zep is the same; the only Satanic messages are the ones your mind superimposed on the sounds that occur there naturally.

    Of course, some people have tried to record various messages backwards, especially since the fuss first started, but the are few a far between. I listened to a couple of dozen of those "examples" on that site, and not one was a real backwards masked message.

    So if your candidate for 2004 (or have you switched allegiances) wants to mask his campaign slogans backwards, he'd better get started.

Mr. Conspiracy Presents...

The Political Assassination of the Week

 

    "After more than 1 million votes went uncounted in the last presidential election, Athan Gibbs Sr. devoted his life to making sure voters in future elections would know their votes mattered.

    "The enterprising 57-year-old saw his invention of the TruVote vote-casting system as nothing less than the key to social justice and democracy in America.

    "As family members and business partners gathered at the TruVote office yesterday morning to mourn Mr. Gibbs' death, they vowed that his dream would not die with him.

    "Mr. Gibbs was killed about 10:30 a.m. Friday in a car crash on Interstate 65 near Eighth Avenue North as he drove from his north Nashville home to his downtown office at Tennessee State University's Business Incubation Center."
- Holly Edwards: He wanted every vote to matter; Athan Gibbs, Sr. dies in crash -

 

    "Coincidence theorists will simply dismiss the death of Gibbs as a tragic accident - the same conclusion these coincidence theorists came to when anti-nuclear activist Karen Silkwood died in November 1974 when her car struck a concrete embankment en route to a meeting with New York Times reporter David Burnham. Prominent independent investigators concluded that Silkwood's car was hit from behind and forced off the road. Silkwood was reportedly carrying documents that would expose illegal activities at the Kerr-McGee nuclear fuel plant. The FBI report found that she fell asleep at the wheel after overdosing on Quaaludes and that there never were any such files. A journalist secretly employed by the FBI, and a veteran of the Bureau's COINTELPRO operation against political activists, provided testimony for the FBI report.

    "Gibbs' death bears heightened scrutiny because of the way he lived his life after the 2000 Florida election debacle. I interviewed Athan Gibbs in January of this year. 'I've been an accountant, an auditor, for more than thirty years. Electronic voting machines that don't supply a paper trail go against every principle of accounting and auditing that's being taught in American business schools,' he insisted.

    "Gibbs' TruVote machine is a marvel. After voters touch the screen, a paper ballot prints out under Plexiglas and once the voter compares it to his actual vote and approves it, the ballot drops into a lockbox and is issued a numbered receipt. The voter's receipt allows the track of his particular vote to make sure that it was transferred from the polling place to the election tabulation center."

People You Don't Normally Think About

 

    "What do you give someone who's been proved innocent after spending the best part of their life behind bars, wrongfully convicted of a crime they didn't commit? An apology, maybe? Counseling? Champagne? Compensation? Well, if you're David Blunkett, the Labour Home Secretary, the choice is simple: you give them a big, fat bill for the cost of board and lodgings for the time they spent freeloading at Her Majesty's Pleasure in British prisons.

    "On Tuesday, Blunkett will fight in the Royal Courts of Justice in London for the right to charge victims of miscarriages of justice more than £3000 for every year they spent in jail while wrongly convicted. The logic is that the innocent man shouldn't have been in prison eating free porridge and sleeping for nothing under regulation gray blankets."

- Neil Mackay: We locked you up in jail for 25 years and you were innocent all along? That'll be £80,000 please -

The Campaign Slogan from Hell

 

Imagine for the moment that you have not only been given but actually been paid to come up with a campaign slogan that absolutely nobody could disagree with, a campaign slogan so utterly bland and lacking in clarification that to come out against it would seem foolish and just plain wrong. Something that would sink to the depths of the lowest possible human denominator.

 

Hmm, let's see. How about "The Human Candidate!" Look at him, he's human, just like you and me. I mean who's anti-human, I ask you.

 

Sorry, Charlie, it would take a dose of balls to come out as the "pro-humanity" candidate. "Humanity" is too big a pill to swallow. Next?

 

Okay, what does everybody need? Air. How about "A Vote for So-And-So is a Vote for Air." Oops, no, can't use that one. Too blatant a lie for someone who has done nothing more than fuck up the air their whole life. Next?

 

How about water? Everybody drinks water. How about "So-And-So is Committed to Bringing Clean Water to Everybody?"

 

Sorry, same reason. Next?

 

How about "Family Values?" Everyone's got a family.

 

"Great!" said the genius, and he was right.

 

Here's a family value for you.

 

Hypothetical Person: I think parents are responsible for their children, dang nab it. If a child does something wrong, blame the parent. That's what I say. If someone makes it to death row, I say inject the parents right along with 'em.

 

Such a person would be quite drawn to the "Family Values" candidate.

 

Another Hypothetical Person: My daddy fucked me when I was 12 and I liked it. Now that I'm all grown up, I fuck my kids just like my daddy did.

 

Such a hypothetical person would ALSO be quite drawn to the "Family Values" candidate.

 

"Family Values" casts a broad enough net to encompass everyone on earth. Without explaining what values they're talking about, it draws in every family, even the ones that are the most fucked up. Whatever value your family may have to you, you have to admit that, at the very least, it's a "value" that applies to your "family." Even if you have no kids, you can't deny membership in a family.

 

You'd think the "family values" candidate would welcome an open discussion of the "values" shown by their "family" throughout the ages. Luckily, the phrase "family values" wasn't created out of a sense of any particular value or cause, so no one's actually devoted to the precept. It's just a phrase to sell a product, like "We Never Forget Who We're Working For." It only makes sense if you don't think about it.

 

When one family tries to make another family live by THEIR values, you've got problems. If I were to enforce MY "family values" upon the world, it would be full of love and betrayal, of tragically calculated mistakes and unforeseen consequences, of madness and inconsistency, of ecstatic joy and the depths of despair, of sudden turns into heightened glory or wretched excess that depend entirely upon the whim of fate, but that's way too long for a campaign slogan.

"There is a special throne in heaven for poets, who labor in obscurity. The rest of us harbor an unexpressed hope for fame and glory. You might be tempted to write for a market. You might be tempted to ride the crest of a trend. That kind of writing is about as stable and fulfilling as day trading. Write what moves you. Write what interests you. Write what frightens you. Write what thrills you. Take a cue from the poets, bless their underfunded little hearts."

"Kerry points out what everyone knows: The Iraq war was an American operation dressed up as a 'coalition of the willing,' in which Britain was the only other country to play a major role. Cheney calls this 'contempt' for 'friends of the United States.' Nineteen Italians get killed in a war that Bush and Cheney started against the will of most Italians, but it's Kerry, not Bush, who has shown contempt for Italy and other 'friends of the United States.'"

"A widely observed irony is that the dovish Kerry saw combat in Vietnam while the hawkish Cheney accepted a series of student and family-related draft deferments."

"John Kerry is liberal, Wesley Clark is anti-war, and an un-elected president is seeking re-election. When Colin Powell recently said: 'Whether or not he is able to effectively continue as president is something he will have to examine carefully,' Powell was not talking about Bush... he was discussing Jean-Bertrand Aristide, the democratically elected president of Haiti (until ousted by 'rebels' and 'students').

    "On April 23, 2003, Andrew S. Natsios, head of the U.S. Agency for International Development, laid out in a televised interview the costs to U.S. taxpayers of rebuilding Iraq. 'The American part of this will be $1.7 billion,' he said. 'We have no plans for any further-on funding for this.'

    "That turned out to be off by orders of magnitude. The administration, which asked Congress for another $20 billion for Iraq reconstruction five months after Natsios made his assertion, has said it expects overall Iraqi reconstruction costs to be as much as $75 billion this year alone."

    "Biometric devices -- which confirm identification by measuring biological or behavioral features -- have been a staple of police work and science-fiction movies for decades. Now they're moving into the everyday world of airports, workplaces and corner markets.

    "In the future, expect to see them at cash registers, allowing customers to pay for goods as well -- no ATM card or wallet needed. 

    "The most common biometric measure is fingerprints, but some devices also identify based on a retinal or iris scan, a face or voice. Biometrics promises identities that promoters claim are virtually impossible to steal, impersonate or misplace."

    "News alert: it's the jury's job to decide what's fair and what's not fair. It's not the judge's, and, contrary to popular wisdom, it's not the legislature's. The legislature is the modern stand-in for King John, and it has no more authority over the jury than he did.

    "Unfortunately, we've reached a stage in our history when the people are forced to take back the rights granted by those ancient kings, notably in the form of Amendment A in South Dakota. The so-called 'jury nullification' proposal in that state would require judges to tell juries that they're allowed to interpret the law--not just the facts--so that they can follow their own consciences if they disagree with some concoction of the legislature that shouldn't be applied to the living, breathing human being set before them.

    "Oddly enough, this idea strikes fear into the heart of the judiciary everywhere. And yet it's one of the oldest ideas in the land--almost all the Founding Fathers agreed with it--and, if you think about it, it's self-evident. If the judge could direct a verdict, by framing a question so narrowly that you could only vote one way, then it wouldn't be a real jury in the first place, would it?"

"Photojournalist Nina Berman's photo essay, The Damage Done in Mother Jones magazine, of young wounded soldiers in the Iraq invasion is a visual explanation as to why George W. Bush does not want pictures of the dead or wounded returning home to be flashed across the nation's television screens or on the pages of our newspapers. What a dizzying effect: the battle between what is real and what is fabricated; between what is and what should not have been. Between the potential and possibilities for one's life's journey and that journey as it has become truncated by the effects of Bush's greedy, narcissistic invasion of another country."

    "There are six individuals who have the power to influence whether President George Bush, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman, General Richard Myers, will publicly testify under oath before the American people to explain why they sat at their desks and in a school classroom, failing to take decisive action on September 11, 2001, until after four planes attacked the United States and killed 3,000 Americans and citizens from many other countries. This, despite knowledge of the hijackings earlier that morning before any of the four planes crashed.

    "Starting immediately, we are asking Americans and others around the world who also seek truth and accountability regarding the mysteries of 9-11 to phone, fax and/or email the following six individuals once or twice per week until Mr. Bush, Mr. Rumsfeld, General Myers, Dr. Condoleezza Rice and other top government officials testify publicly under oath and are questioned by career prosecutors like those who interrogated President Clinton.

    "Yes, and more than 570 American military personnel might still be alive. And hundreds more of the 3,000 soldiers wounded in George W. Bush's vanity war would not need to be fitted with a prosthetic limb.

    "And countless other U.S. families would not have had their lives imploded simply because the president of the United States and his fellow country club warriors took a 'Get Smart' intelligence approach to going to war.

    "Good grief, there have been times over the past 12 months when the Don Adams-In-Chief has appeared to be on the very verge of saying; 'Would you believe ... we went to war because ... uh, ... because, uh, Saddam was keeping his neighbors up all night playing Bobby Darin records?'"

Nothing Bad About

 

    I don't even remember what I was doing. I was in the kitchen, either eating or preparing food or watching TV or doing dishes or a miraculous combination of all the above. Max was outside when he ran to the door, almost crying, fighting back the tears, finally letting go and filling the air with sobs.

    "What's wrong?" I said.

    "I killed a bunny," said Max.

    "You what?"

    "I killed a bunny."

    "How?"

    "I shot at some bushes with the rifle and I didn't know there was a bunny in there and I hit it and it hopped around and then it died."

    I hesitate to inform you that my first instinct was to turn into David Letterman and say "Good shootin'. Show me where he is, boy. Them bunnies' fine eatin'." Having never cleaned and skinned an animal in my life, the idea of starting with a cute little bunny rabbit that my son just killed had a perverse appeal. Which knife should I use? Hey, maybe I should crucify it first, or maybe cut off one of its little paws, attach it to a key to the house, and give it to Max saying it'll bring him good luck.

    Luckily I had enough common sense to know that adding irony to trauma wasn't something a ten-year-old would necessarily "get." I was comforting. I turned into a parent. I told him what he needed to hear. I explained that bunnies die every day. That the coyotes wouldn't have anything to eat if bunnies didn't die (or weren't fine eatin'). At least it was over fast.

    "No it wasn't. I got him above the leg and he hopped around a lot before he died."

    I realized I had no choice. "Show it to me."

    "I can't."

    I gave him a hug. He stopped crying for a second. "Let's go," he said.

    We walked for a while through the desert and I saw the dead bunny. It bled out. Mr. CSI. I felt queasy. As much as I have a grudging admiration for people like Ted Nugent who kill their own food, it's the same grudging admiration I have for people who go into the heart of Africa to treat people with lesions. Good for them but it's not for me. People in Africa with lesions don't need overfed Americans crossing the ocean to throw up on them.

    I thought of burying the bunny, deep so the desert animals wouldn't dig it up, and carving a headstone saying something like "Here's the bunny that Max killed when he thought he was just shooting at a bush. May he hop around in heaven with all the other dead bunnies, unless he was a homosexual in which case he can burn for eternity in the fiery pits of eternal damnation."

    I turned nonchalant. "Hey, man, you fed the coyotes. You saved them a chase."

    "I like bunnies," said Max. We'd caught them before in traps and kept them to pet, always letting them go the next day. I've got nothing bad to say about bunnies. I fell to my knees and shouted to the heavens "Why, lord? Why do bunnies have to die?"

    No I didn't. I remained calm, a model of composure, as if bunnies died every day and it was no big deal. If he could have articulated it, Max would have said "Yeah, LOTS of things die every day, but I'm not the one who killed them. There's a qualitative difference that you, who killed a parakeet at the age of ten, my exact age, should particularly appreciate."

    It's true. I killed my parakeet. It was an accident, I swear, I didn't mean to kill it, it wasn't murder, it was at most birdslaughter, or maybe bird 1, but the only punishment I received was living every day for the rest of my life with the horrible knowledge that somewhere in heaven there's a parakeet who arrived a little bit too early because of me. Unless it was a homosexual.

    Max didn't know this and I wasn't about to tell him. There would be no funeral service. It's not like the bunny was a pet. It was just one of literally hundreds of desert bunnies that live around my house, waiting to be bitten by rattlesnakes or chased by coyotes or shot by little boys.

    No amount of glib banter can alter the sincerity of a child's tears. I was reduced to reality and compassion. My child was in pain and I comforted. I hugged him again and kissed him on the forehead. We walked back to the house surrounded by the souls of dead bunnies and the smiles of coyotes.
