Out off the abyss we came,

Into being, into life, into hope

To bring the light of day

To a world shrouded in doubt.

The power hides in the shadows

Even as it gives birth to brilliance;

Dormant, sleeping, but potent as a storm

A new being in the making,

A new god born.

Carnival is what you dare

Flesh farewell, the soul goes bare

Your face is just a mask you wear, but

Masks are hidden faces.

Why do we always come here

I guess we'll never know

It's like a kind of torture

To have to watch the show

And now let's get things started

Why don't you get things started

It's time to get things started

On the most sensational inspirational celebrational Muppetational

This is what we call the Muppet Show!

(Gonzo blows his trumpet)

In Praise of Folly

by Desiderius Erasmus

An oration, of feigned matter, spoken by Folly

in her own person

Why have I appeared today in this unaccustomed garb? Well, you shall hear the reason if you have no objection to lending me your earsno, not the ones you use for preachers of sermons, but the ears you usually prick up for mountebanks, clowns and fools, the sort of ears that once upon a time our friend Midas listened with to Pan. more >

"That's why I call myself a witch now: the Wicked Witch of the West, if you want the full glory of it. As long as people are going to call you lunatic anyway, why not get the benefit of it? It liberates you from convention."

Sympathy for the Devil

Richard Corben (with Rick Courtney), "A Night on Bald Mountain" (1979). 18"x24" oil over acryl.

Made damn sure that Pilate

Washed his hands and sealed his fate

(...)

I shouted out, (whoo whoo)

"Who killed the Kennedys?" (whoo whoo)

When after all (whoo whoo)

It was you and me (whoo whoo)

Totally Wicked...

I won't finish my days in Singapore

Playing Scrabble

and eating "petit-four"

I want to be wicked

Totally wicked

Wicked like the triplets from Belleville.

The Stuff

Mon, 7 Jun 2004 18:15:40 GMT

Are you eating it? Or is it eating you?

An industrial spy is hired by an ice-cream corporation to uncover the secret ingredients of an addictive yogurt-like substance, called The Stuff...

"People associated with The Stuff behave in weird wayswe get a close up look at the effects of The Stuff in action as a young boy, who discovered the glop moving around in the fridge, refuses to eat it, but slowly sees his family going mad with it. They eat nothing but The Stuff and chatter in second hand advertising slogans about what a wonderful product it is."
