NOW, I must have the mostestest of sayings to all of you hegemoners and hegemonees out there (and you know who you are) that the world is a very, very, very small, almost microscopic, place these days and if you really, really, really don't want to live in peace you don't have to, in fact, I'm sending my AKC registered full blooded, very big and mean dog, Maxime-Alphonse LeDuc de Paris over to your place right now this minute to leave a nice big present on your doorstoop (and your mutt had better make the hidings under the bed because my dog is bigger and badder than your dog) and if you think his poop is like what you think yours is, then think again, since his does stink, big time, so there, and furthermore, my ancestors are better ancestors than your ancestors, my religion is better religion than your religion, my car is faster than your car (and gets better mileage), my beer is frothier than your beer, my recipe for valve oil is slicker than your recipe for valve oil, my Daddy can whoop your Daddy, my school is better than your school, my town is nicer than your town, my kid is smarter than your kid, my jockstrap is bigger than your jockstrap, I can play higher, louder and faster on the F side than you can play on the B side, I can play Hindemith on the natural horn and you can't, my Sansone is better than your Maxtone, my mouthpiece is wider and deeper than your mouthpiece, and get an 18 wheel truck load of this: I just hit the Powerball for 18 Zillion bucks and now I'm richer than Warren Buffet, George Soros and Bill Gates put together with Crazy Glue, so I am going to own all of you very soon, and be President to boot, and then, I am going to solve this problem, once and for all, and I'm telling you now that you are all the way wrong, wrong, wrong, putting all of these blamings on each other for the piss-poor state of cultural affairs these days, as you should be having nothings but blames for the true source of all the world's problems, conflicts, dilemmas, conundrums, complications, disturbances, conditions, worries, injustices, threats, mayhems, inhumanities, lack of cultured cultures, body odors, bad haircuts, stupidities and general ignorances: CANADA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
