Ballad of Lucy Jordon - Marianne Faithful

The morning sun
touched lightly on...

... as she sat there softly singing
pretty nursery rhymes
she memorized
in her Daddy's easy chair...

or run naked...

The evening sun
touched gently on
the eyes of Lucy Jordon,
on the rooftop
where she climbed
when all the laughter grew too loud...
...she realized she found forever...

I'm Uninsurable

I have been living with HIV for 18 years.

So, no public option?

I lose my job?
Dead!, within a year.

I like New York in Spring,
How about you...

PS: Been doing fine until L'le Ms. Bitch Boss...

Que Sera, Sera

PSS: Here's what we did do before Medicare, and Medicaid...

we did our patriotic duty...

And died.

and Republicans everywhere thanked us for doing the right thing...
'cos they are the party of life

Fuckers

Is the right completely losing it?

Hitler would be so proud of Little Brian Kilmeade...

Happy Fourth - America

Smile - Garland

For Nick

Garland and Stonewall

Via an Orange Satan Diarist, Chico David RN

Actor J E Freeman, remembers Stonewall '69.

Read the whole thing at the Chronicle.

It'll bring a tear to your eye,

My earliest recollection of Michael Jackson.

...long before he was the 'King of Pop' and worlds away from all the weirdness that probably ultimately destroyed him.

...and the Idiot of the Day Award goes to:

Why Sondheim?

Guess!

Miller's Son - Sondheim - A Little Night Music

My favorite song from ALNM

All about now:

A Little Night Music - Send In The Clowns

Took my Uncle to see another Sondheim (actually, my uncle took me), A Little Night Music.

It doesn't take a great singer to do this song...



But it does take a great actress!
