MESSAGE FOR YA, MESSAGE FOR YA
Like
The Oracle of Delphi, only a bit younger and with approximately 7134
more albums, Mark E Smith
can offer us cryptic but insightful commentary on life, love and
economics.� Thanks to a necessarily
brief acquaintance with a member of The Fall, we were able to get ten burning
questions remarked upon, if not necessarily definitively answered�though we
could not fail to notice a certain resemblance to his equally opaque song
lyrics�
Q:� Could you
summarize the alleged point of the Atkins diet?
A:� Eat Y�Self
Fitter!!
Q:� What job is Saddam
Hussein unlikely to get, should he not be executed and actually hits the
streets again?
A:� Baghdad Space
Cog Analyst
Q:� Do you think Michael Jackson is in any meaningful way
still organic?
A:� There are twelve people in the world � the rest are paste.
Q:� What do you think about the erosion of civil liberties in the
United States, what with library use monitoring, telecommunications
surveillance, etc.?
A:� I hate you, telephone thing, listening in
Q:�
Can you propose a short term solution to pharmaceutical expenses going
through the roof in the United States, given the lack of socialized healthcare?
A:�
Underground medicine
Q:� Monica or Hilary?
A:� Hilary, oh, Hilary, oh-oh-oh, Hilary (truthfully, we briefly
contemplated the possibility of a less-than-professional admiration on our
prophet�s part for the American Senator, but then remembered the odd consonance
with his recorded words�)
Q:� How about a new name for the Cataraqui
Creek Conservation Area in Kingston, Ontario, Canada, bearing in mind its
treed seclusion and ample socializing opportunities?
A:� Cruisers Creek, yeah
Q:� Continuing on the Canadian theme, how about
a friendly shout out to Canadian PM Paul Martin, in the grand tradition
of similar words to Julius Caesar and Macbeth?
A:� Hey there, fuckface!
Q:� If you could ask Mr. Skull from The
Residents his real name, what would he say?
A:� I am Damo Suzuki! (while the prospect of a
member of Can being involved with everyone�s favourite San Francisco
eyeball tricksters has a certain appeal, we are still theorizing that it is
actually a Journey side project�)
Q:� So you�re playing hide and seek with Vladimir
Zhironovsky, and you�ve just flushed him out.� What do you yell?
A:� (after first looking annoyed at us for such
a silly and frivolous question) HAF FOUND BORMANN!
