You may have heard that Elton John got $1 million to perform at Rush Limbaugh's wedding. Turns out that Elton changed some of the lyrics for this perfomance:
Candle in the Windbag
Saturday Night's Alright for oxycodone
Goofball Wizard
Crock of S**t Rock
...Loves Lies With Bleeding Heart Liberals
and Don't Let the Rush Go Down On Me.
But he didn't change a word of The Bitch Is Back or Get Back Honky Cat.

Dave's first blog
Introduction:
For the uninitiated, "blog" is merely internet-speak for web log. People write about whatever they want to, upload it to a web site and sometimes someone else actually stumbles upon it and reads it. Some blog sites are significant. This one clearly is not. Some blog sites have thousands of viewers each day and a few are quoted regularly in the traditional press. However, a recent study indicated that the average web log is only read by one or two people (no joke). I'm shooting for six (joke), so thank you for showing up.
Most blog sites are interactive, so viewers can post their own blogs, or just viciously and anonymously criticize the stuff you put on your own blog. As I am sometimes a glutton for punishment, I invite you to add a comment whether you're singing my praises or tearing me a new one.
If you've come here often, you know that this has always been a bit of a blog site, but with photos as the major attraction and my painfully forced attempts at humor added almost as an afterthought. This page will strictly be those painfully forced attempts, but without those annoying pictures to get in the way of the hubris.
My first real blog:
In spite of my great genius, sexual prowess, vast international holdings, and stunning physical appearance; I'm still single and a member of http://www.menwithgreatgeniussexualprowessvastinternationalholdings
andstunningphysicalappearancewhocantgetdates.com/, a popular online dating service. I was reading the profile of a comely women within at least twenty-seven years of my own age group when I noticed that she mentioned she is a pysch major FOUR DIFFERENT TIMES in a one-page profile. As I successfully completed Psychology 101 in the Northrop Auditorium at the U of M, I wrote her the following email message:
Dear pyschmajor4235:
Were you aware that you mentioned being a psych major four times in your profile? You might wish to consider dropping that down to one or two, unless you are, in fact, OC; in which case you should put it in there three or four more times. (Perhaps I'm OC for counting them, huh?)
By the way, you're not the record holder. Yesterday I found a profile of a woman who mentioned that she "liked to run" five times. I wrote her a short note asking her if she really wanted to run. If she's a member of an online dating service, wouldn't she prefer to be caught? Then I told her she repeated it five times and said, "Sorry, I gotta run."Since you've certainly studied Freud by now, I'll mention that my Mother was an English teacher. I often dream of her chopping up those cigars while wearing her beautiful pink Freudian slip. But seriously, she was an English teacher (have I mentioned that twice?) and I've worked as an editor (long ago, thankfully) and my sister is currently working part-time as a copyeditor, so we notice those kinds of things. Well, I gotta go. "Group" is starting in ten minutes.
