RAINDATE Sunday June 29th.............just in case!
I've been living in Ye Olde University City Village for 18 years now (had my anniversary on June 2) and ever since I learned upon my arrival that the police chief had recently dropped a bomb on the MOVE house from a black helicopter I've been searching for Weapons of Mass Destruction in vain. But I am confident they will be found. Yes indeedy do. Actually I'm surprised we haven't found them yet, thinking that the CIA would still have enough sense to put some there when the President asked for them. But then again, it seems that CIA is pissed off because the Cheney/Rummy/Bushie axis has been hyping their data again, pulling another old Gulf of Tonkin. (Trivia quiz: can anyone remember the names of the two Senators who refused to let Lyndon pull the wool over their eyes and actually voted against the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution? For any of you Generation X-ers in the hood, DIDN'T THEY TEACH YOU ABOUT THE GULF OF TONKIN AT ANDOVER????) And as Maureen Dowd points out, Cheney paid a little visit to CIA early in the game to impress the party line upon those young impressionable apprentice spooks. As she put it "With the hot breath of Cheney on their raw files" it's not surprising that their intelligence may have been a little bent.
Anyhow, I have been searching diligently at these so-called "yard sales", "porch sales", "block sales", "multi-family yard sales", "multi-block multi-family porch/garage sales" whenever I get the chance for 18 years now and have thus far failed to turn up a single nasty WMD, although I frequently encounter suspicious "molds" which turn out upon testing to be non-lethal and even psychedelic. By now I don't even bother to hit the huge Saint Francis DeSales sales anymore having realized that the good sisters would do no such thing as to conceal weapons of mass destruction in their porch sales.
Come to think of it, my wife has been searching diligently for some years now for a simple drainboard. Not a washboard; a drainboard -- the plastic thingie you put under the watcha-ma-callit where I put the dishes to dry after I wash them. She's even tried at Second Mile Center, K-Mart and Nick's Supreme Discount. No such luck.
