Some days...

Some days I feel like I live in a play or a book & other days I'm sure it's an action movie. But no matter the medium I'm totally ready to bribe the author(s). Donuts, bourbon or tranny hookers, I can make it happen. No bribe is too outlandish when The Story of My Life is at stake. I guess I'd better pull out the old typewriter or procure the virginal chocolate sacrifices...

How I Feel (or at least I'm trying to feel this way ;)

From: All Dogs Go To Heaven




Music: Al Kasha, T. J. Kuenster, Michael Lloyd, Charles Strouse


Lyrics: Al Kasha, Joel Hirschhorn, Ralph Burns

You Can't Keep a Good Dog Down
CHARLIE & (ITCHY):
Oh you can't keep a good dog down (No sir)
No you can't keep a good dog down
I've seen pain and hurt (That's right)
I've eaten dirt (That's true)
It's hard to buy but even I
Have been jilted by a skirt (He lies)
Look out, I'm still around
'Cause you can't keep a good dog down

ITCHY & (CHARLIE):
Ya can't keep a good dog down (No you can't)
No no no no, you can't keep a good dog down

CHARLIE:
I've been bought and sold

ITCHY:
He's been warm and cold

CHARLIE:
But ten to one I'll still be running
Rackets when I'm old

ITCHY:
Not in some cage in the city pound

BOTH:
'Cause you can't keep a good dog
Can't keep a good
I say you can't keep a good dog down

ITCHY:
In him's the luck of the Irish

CHARLIE:
The pride of the German

ITCHY:
And even a bit of Siam

CHARLIE:
Siam? You see the come of the English

ITCHY:
The charm of the Spanish

CHARLIE & (ITCHY):
A pedigree a certainly ain't what I am
So call me a mixed up pup
(You're a mixed up pup)
But the only way this pup knows is up!

ALL:
Ya can't keep a good dog down
Ya can't keep a good dog down

ITCHY:
He's been fat and thin

CHARLIE:
I've been out and in

ITCHY:
He tried a life of virtue

CHARLIE:
But prefer a life of sin

BOTH:
So tonight when we own this town
I've known hunger, I've known thirst
Lived the best and seen the worst
But the only way I know
To finish best to finish first

BOTH:
So watch out when you hear this sound
'Cause you can't keep a good dog, no ya
Can't keep a good, I say
You can't keep a good dog down

ALL:
You can't keep a good dog down

I Love The 80's on The Dark Farm

After watching The Best of I Love The 80's, it's occurred to me that my brother, sister and I could do our own version of I Love The 80's & 90's and it would just be one dark farm story after another.


Me talking to my brother: "Ok, here's a My Buddy Doll. You have 45 seconds to list all the evils of the world that the My Buddy Doll is responsible for according to Dad. Can you make it?


My brother: *takes a deep breath* "Yes, I think so."


Me: *with stop watch* "Annnnnd, GO!"
