What is nothing worth?

Nothing ain’t worth nothing…if you take their word for it.

But who’s “they“?

When they’re lying on the sidewalk asking for spare change, what they’re offering is an option: the chance to give money that goes directly to the people who need it most.

What they don’t, and can’t, tell you is whether or not they spend it on healthy foodstuffs or brewed or distilled products.

This would be why, after 25 years in Vangroover, I still never give money but DO offer food. If a beggar declines my food offer once, he’s off the list, no matter how many permutations of his hardluck story he may come up with subsequently.

There’s an old fellow (if it were PC I’d say ancient, but I’m afraid his advocates would get it all up in their noses) of Native persuasian, who sits at probably the least profitable corner in the country. Main and Hastings has, according to StatsCan, an average life expectancy of 33 years. And yet, he makes a living.

So, when I got an email from a friend, saying hey, people, ten would help, I gave her a hundred, although I am still technically on Welfare. This woman took out a loan to help me; the least I can do is spread the good fortune once it starts rolling in!

Elvis Voldemort

Elvis! Voldemort!This is a confluence of pop memes almost beyond imagining, but FWIW, Lord Voldemort‘s middle name, in French, is Elvis.

To make an anagram of Je suis Voldemort the French translators had to change Tom Marvolo Riddle into Tom Elvis Jedusor.

This just needs to be said, today.

STFU

Believe me, you don’t want the details. You may get them anyway, if I run out of blog fodder, but I prefer to dump a cute visual on you rather than descend into the pathetic depths of LiveJournaling.

quote o’ the day: womanhood

Yes, it’s that time of the month. This post is brought to you by the hormones estrogen, progesterone, FSH and LH. Here is Warhol Superstar drag queen Candy Darling, another case of proving what Truman Capote said, that those who choose to become blonde are blonder than those who are born that way.

Candy Darling

Andy Warhol to Candy Darling: “Candy, we’re all wondering, do you get your period?”
Candy: “Every day Andy, I’m such a woman.”
