Impeach Bush Now!

Thanksgiving In London
The confusion started when I ran into some security trouble at O’Hare airport. Now, may I just begin by saying that I sometimes say threatful things. These are not things of which ever I mean. That is to say I don’t mean them. I never say them to people, but only to stationary and non-hearing things such as a mailbox or a door frame. So when I cursed a chair and said I would bomb it if it did not cooperate, I was overheard and made to sit in the exact chair I had threatened. To be fair to the chair, I was curt with it before it was curt to me in response. I’m not going to get into why I made angry comments to the chair, but suffice it to say I was having a rough day, and I doubt I’ll be seeing Paul, my godson, any time soon. So being made to sit in the chair was poetic and just desserts, which is exactly how I like my desserts. I once ate a custard that was more literal than poetic and I did not care for it.
Upon being dismissed from the chair, I fell into an open bag of a kind young man with big arms, and since he didn’t notice me, I didn’t want to startle him, so I remained silent. I did tap lightly on the interior of the bag and said “Excuse me, I don’t want to cause any trouble, but I’m in here,” but nobody heard me, so I just took my medicine and fell asleep.
When I awoke I was in an overhead compartment next to the miniature set of golf clubs that had woken me with their incessant rattling and head-knocking. I was able to unzip the bag to get some fresh air, and again I tried rapping gently to alert people to my presence, but decided to let them all be. It had been a rough day for all of us.
I spent the last 8 hours of the flight rummaging through people’s things looking for a good laugh, but I found nothing. When they opened my compartment, I let my eyes adjust, and then allowed my body to be passed above the heads of all the people until I was on solid ground.
When I deboarded the plane, I knew immediately I was in London, because the first thing I saw was the Abbey Road crosswalk where Marvin Trapp and the Polka-doors posed for their famous album cover in 1941, so I laid down for a nap, as that had been a longterm dream of mine.
I spent most of today watching plays and fog and coppers. I hope to find a youth hostel to stay at. Do you suppose they’ll have turkey? I found sweet potatoes in the overhead bin.

When is Thanksgiving?

"Foiled By the Letter H!" and "Judging My Granddaughter"
This has been a traumatifying time for me, because the letter H has long been one letter that I do not trust with any rigor therein or whereby. And to spend long hours pressing it and staring at it has furthered my frustration and ill feelings against it. Some say it’s just a letter, but I see it for all of which what that it is whence and hitherto therefore. Like two vertical golems of darkness bound together at the waist stands the letter H, pouting in a corner, ready to pounce on me. Think of all the bad H words. “Hatred”, “Hell”, and “Hahahaha!” (as in a maniacal laugh) all come immediately to mind. But it is a subversive letter as well, hiding in words like “Happy” and "Heaven" and “Hello Honey, how are you? I hold your hair in a horse harness,” which are perfectly innocent until you notice the golems with their bad attitudes. I just try not to make eye contact, hoping they will get bored and leave me alone. But holding the key down for hours has made me cross to the darkside for longer than I had hoped, and I now find that I’m using the letter H more than ever before, which could become a problem. Stop it, please. Thank you.
So in addition to that, new things are happening. The weather is getting colder which is leading to aches, pains, confusion and I no longer sleep in my tub. Therefore I have lots more time to make my business phone calls. I have caught up on my necessary phonecalling through March, so I decided to make a call for next May.
My godson Paul’s goddaughter Brandy (I think of her as a granddaughter) is in the Girl Scouting of America Organization Agency, and their troop will have a beauty competition when the weather gets nice again so that they can stop fighting over who is the prettiest. This is an instrumental step in the lives of these young girls, because the winner will get into the college of her dreams and be a doctor or a homemaker or something. I care very much about Brandy and want her to do well, so I agreed to help with the organizing of said pageant. A phone call to a professionally judgmental person can be listened to in the player below.

Personal Train Me, Please
I asked my godson, Paul, to get my money back from the place as he is more frightening with his voice than I am with mine. (Although I did once portray a rabid wolf who ate children in a school play, and my performance had everyone depressed and angry for weeks afterwards, but that is neither here nor over there.) It took a lot of shouting, but Paul was able to get the money back in exchange for I never take another class there and that Paul stays 500 meters from their offices at all times. All of today’s shoutings have got me all cramped up in my stomach, wrists, neck, back, feet, abs, spleen, taste buds, cheek puffs, shoulder humps, yarn-bucklers and skull cap, which I am none to the pleased with by or of. Nevertheless, I can't remember a more beautiful day.
I still plan to take some dance classes (somewhere else) at some point, but first I must get into repair. Parts of me that are loosened need to be firmly stowed away and tucked under where they belong. “Keep your arms and all other flapping parts inside the train at all times,” a conductor man would surely say to me.
So I placed a call to a gymnastics man who could train me into tonefulness and versalability. The call was recorded by me to ensure personal homeland security and that quality customer service is being enjoyed by all, not absconded henceto and hitherforth.

Mantis Encounter!
Yesterday I became troubled upon an altercation I stumbled into as I crossed over to the Walgreens. Now, ordinarily I do not stop for anything that looks like it needs my help, because this is a ploy that many burglars and mafia people will use to ensnare foolish people into, but I will stop to help three things: (1) worms, (2) turtles, and (3) praying mantis people. Today will be my last praying mantis helper day due to anger caused to me in the story which follows this paragraph.
As I was making my street crossings to the sausage pickle basket egg cheese emporium where I like to purvey Monday mornings, I crossed paths with a gentleman who looked like he needed my help as he was much smaller than my foot and I almost stepped directly atop his head and brain region. I stopped short when I saw him and could tell this was no ordinary man. It was a praying mantis. He was sitting in the street and praying. Ordinarily I leave people alone when they pray as it has not gotten me the things I wanted when I have interrupted them in the past. But due to the size of this gentleman, I thought I would let him know he had picked a dangerous place to worship. There are many cars, trucks, bicycles, and robots that could easily run a mantis right down. So I surveyed the ground and grabbed a nearby stick with which I began prodding his person to let him know the time had come to wrap it up and move on.
He spun his head around to look at me and we had a good staring match. I said, “Excuse me,” and suggested that he move, but I have never communicated with a mantis and didn’t know which vocabulary words with which he would be familiar.
He appeared angry as he took a step towards me. I backed up a little out of terror and he stepped another foot towards me. This continued for several hours until I was very hungry and needed to stop in for a quick bite, so I grabbed a cookie biscuit at a bakery and then continued the chase with the vicious mantis. I yelled “I am trying to help you,” but he would not relent. I could not go directly home, because then he would know the locale of my dwellings and that thought was disquieting. I ran in a zig zag pattern for about an hour to throw him off, but he had his wits about him and followed my every move.
I ran to a department store because I knew the mantis would not want to venture on the likes of an escalator, and I needed a new pair of slacks. So I went to Goldblatt's but it was closed for remodeling and instead was the Department of Human Services which was fine with me because I need to renew my city sticker and also the services of removing the mantis from my path.
Scared to make the walk home all alone, I rang for Paul to come get me. He was headed out for drinks but said he would come get me in a few hours. This was fine because I've been meaning to count the dots on my left arms for some time, and this allowed me the chance to do this.As a postlude, I do want to add that Paul has done a couple nice things for me lately. Yesterday, on the drive home I saw a robot-bicycle-man propelling himself down a street. I yelled "Who's that robot!" and Paul informed me that it was a just man on a bike. It was nice for him to calm me, because he knows that I don't trust robots, vacuum cleaners, belts, or anything you can build a robot out of.
The other nice thing he did was to get me a new stereo. I had complained that when I listen to my phone calls I am always frightened at the sound of my voice because it sounds like a burglar man or a specter has broken into the stereo to hex me and that is something I find alarming. It is a stereo from a car, and how he got it I don't know, but I wonder if the gash on his hand has anything to do with it. I don't know how to hook up a car stereo to my speakers, but I imagine I will tie some wires to it to get it working in no time for tea.
I'm sorry, did you just say something?
Alright honey, bye-bye.

I Elude the Snares of an Evil Canoe Heist!
First off, the futon has sustained another injury caused my godson, Paul, himself. There is a gash in the cushion where the fabric used to be. I checked my godson’s pockets, expecting to find a shiv or a broken glass bottle with which for him to use in his normal barfights. To my shock, all I found was a comb, so evidently he is turning even that into a weapon with which to gash my furniture and nice things. With his hair condition, he really only would need a wet towel for grooming and danderfiling, thus causing me more suspicion directed at his person. I did not question him on the comb as I did not want to stir the pot of frogs.
But the second bad thing began when I heard my godson place a phone call to a canoe rental company. It began innocently enough. He had invited me to a reunion of his family which I agreed to join, only for the purpose of protecting my name against embarrassments of mine that he may have chosen to mention. Here is the call he placed to the canoe boat rental dock place.
Now, I respect and was impressed with his thriftiness, however, mere minutes after placing this phone call, I heard him chatting with the postman and laughing about tossing me in the water. I imagine that he would like to see what my hair looks like when it is wet, and I was determined for him not to see me like that, so I called back the canoe place to ensure my protection. You can hear the call below.
