    • Now that is interesting. That tiny brain was in control all that time. So we have the same tiny brain and respond just the same way as a man would. Was that article in the Times? Nice read

      • See the 1st verse: Austin-American Statesman, April 9th, 1989. A real study. And boy, did I get a lot of flack from the “gentle sex.” Just reporting what I read — in my own words, of course. Isn’t that what good reporters do?

    • I was intrigued the whole time reading this.
      Informative and entertaining!
      With a side of “it wasn’t my fault”. Hahaha
      Enjoyed the read.

    • I’m glad you enjoyed it. It is a fun one to perform, though it’s been a good while since I have done that.

    • Very entertaining! I don’t trust politicians no matter who they are.

      • Ah, thank you! Did you play the audio? I need to redo it, but it’s not too bad.

        • I listened to the audio and it sounded great to me. Lots of rhythm.

          • Oh, good. I still need to fix it though (it’s missing a word I had to add after Trump took the throne, er, office.)

            • haha, well then get that word in flat daddy. One word might not make a difference unless it’s a real good one. 🙂

              • Oh, yes! The word is “nay” — it wasn’t in there before. I won’t tell you where (oh, boy, a treasure hunt!), but once you find it, you’ll understand why I had to add it. So now I must add it to the audio — which, of course, requires doing it again.

    • I wish you luck in your endeavor. 🙂

    • Super cool and fun poetic satire on the cash that floats our politicians. Buying elections with the telegenic looks and velvet tongue has been going on for a long time. Great poem.

      • Ah, yes, and I find it strange for that very reason that I did not go into politics myself; it’s too bad my mirror does not agree. Damn lying glassy two-dimensional things that populate every bathroom I’ve ever been in. Who put those damn things there? Certainly not me! Thanks for the nice comments, John.

    • Here we see your tender side. Your family being scattered and fragmented is something I can relate to. Fine work, my friend.

      • Thanks, Sam. I was wondering when I would run into you. I’m not surprised it’s here. Take it while you can get it, though. I’m afraid there’s not a lot of tenderness I can share. I have some mayhem, but I try to keep that under wraps. I’ll let it out to play sometimes, though.

    • Well, that was different! Although the AI voice does a decent job, it doesn’t measure up to the real Flatdaddy extraordinaire. I swear you belong in 1950’s and early 60’s Greenwich village.

      • Well, if I had done that, I’d be dead now, Sam, Thanks a lot, old buddy! 🙂
        But damn it, it sure would have been worth it! Can you imagine how it would have felt performing with those guys? I became friends with Vince Balestri, who toured a one man show as Kerouac across the US for many years. He did the show here at Chicago House (now defunct) in the Austin 6th street entertainment district. I handled his PR, created posters and stuff for the show, etc. It was continuously sold out and was held over twice. He then played Kerouac in a movie called, I think, “Beat Angel,” to excellent reviews. Copies are hard to find — and I don’t have one. But he was a terrific guy and really lived the part.
