Caveat: Lego Monkey Got Lego Banana
I have a largish lego alligator at work. I have blogged about it before. Today I was at the Homeplus store and I saw a similarly-scaled lego monkey. Now, my regular plastic alligators have an ongoing relationship with my stuffed monkeys (this makes for engaging EFL conversation with 10 year olds, trust me). So, the idea of getting a companion legomonkey for my legogator was impossible to resist. I bought and assembled the lego monkey. He was furnished with a legotoucan and a legobanana. Go figure.
Caveat: let us celebrate the stupidity of our endurance
A NOT SO GOOD NIGHT IN THE SAN PEDRO OF THE WORLD
it's unlikely that a decent poem is in me
tonight
and I understand that this is strictly my
problem
and of no interest to you
that I sit here listening to a man playing
a piano on the radio
and it's bad piano, both the playing and
the composition
and again, this is of no interest to you
as one of my cats,
a beautiful white with strange markings,
sleeps in the bathroom.
I have no idea what would be of
interest to you
but I doubt that you would be of
interest to me, so don't get
superior.
in fact, come to think of it, you can
kiss my ass.
I continue to listen to the piano.
this will not be a memorable night in my
life
or yours.
let us celebrate the stupidity of our
endurance.
– Charles Bukowski (German-American poet, 1920-1994)
