Happy 95th Birthday William Shatner

It’s that time of year:
Too chilly for my spring coat,
Too warm to zip up

#Haiku

We’ve been warning you
Now your pocketbook falters
Can you hear us now?

Their profits were down?
Middle East war! No surprise
Since prices go up

The new Third World

With Trump now in charge
Instead of being partners
He would rather “win”

With no specific recent events in mind at all, just a classic Dukat meme

Let machines kill men?
This is how SkyNet started!
We’d always wondered

#Haiku #NotMyPresident #ElbowsUp

Then the star-spangled banner, through effort and strain,
Shall yet wave, not by chance, but by choice, brave and free—
O’er the land that we save, not again but again,
And the home of the bold, if we choose so to be. 8/8

Oh thus be it ever, when free folk shall stand
Between despot and dusk, between silence and fear;
Blest with conscience and courage, we’ll steady our hand,
Pay the cost, speak the truth, make the danger draw near. 7/

A power drunk on rage shall no refuge secure,
From the judgment of time or the people awake;
For the union betrayed can be mended once more
If we dare what is hard for our children’s sake. 6/

And where is that vow that our founders once spoke,
That no crown nor strongman would rule by his whim?
Their ink has not faded, though tested and broke
By the hands of the craven who profit from him. 5/

Now it catches the gleam of a fact-checking light,
Now it fades as the lie takes the crowd once again;
’Tis the charter we swore would outlast any blight—
Can it stand, can it hold, through this trial of men? 4/

On the shore, dimly seen through the fog of deceit,
Where the echoes of norms lie abandoned and worn,
What is that which the mob, in their fevered retreat,
Half conceals, half exalts with a sneer and a scorn? 3/

And the courts’ early cries, and the truth’s muffled plea,
Gave grim proof through the storm that our guard was too thin;
Oh say, does that banner yet tattered still be,
O’er the land of the free, and the home we’re still in? 2/

Oh say, can’t you see? By the Don’s surly might
What we hailed at the dawn of this perilous age,
Whose loud boasts and crude threats, through the long, anxious night,
O’er the halls of our law cast a tyrant’s dark shade. 1/

George Carlin: Thou shalt always try to be honest, but nevertheless thou shalt strive to keep thy religion to thyself

Jim Jeffries: Try not to be a cunt

Bill and Ted: Be excellent to each other. And… party on dudes!

Who said it best?

You’re not right for her
Does not make you a failure
You’re right for someone!
