Friday Frivolity


Martha 100, when I saw this book cover, my first thought was, "I know she is old, but she is not that old." (Google tells me she is 84.) A couple of years ago she appeared in an advertising campaign, apparently filmed shortly after far too much Botox. She does not seem to have repeated that, it is nice to see her face moving again. Whoever designed this book cover, really should have shown it to me before they went to print. 


I was in DC last week to have lunch with a friend, and I walked down the Kennedy Center to see the tarp that was put up when that evil name was pried off the front of the building.  There were two security guards out front to keep people behind the barricades. One of them asked what I was looking for, I said, "The same thing everyone else is, what is behind the tarp." He responded, "only god knows, and she isn't telling anyone!" 

You know, Trump lies so often, that if he tells the truth, most people don't believe him. 

Have some fun today!

  1. People don't say 'the disgraced Martha'?
    It isn't a very attractive building really.

    1. She did have a little bit of legal trouble a while back. It was not so much the crime, as it was the lies to try to cover it up that they nailed her for.

  4. I adore Martha, every since she got out of prison and stopped taking herself so seriously.
    That tarp with come down one day and maybe it'll be enough fabric to wrap his corpse in before it's tossed on a garbage heap somewhere.
    Happy Friday!!!

    3. The Cover does not make it clear that it is her 100th book. That is a lot of good things.

  6. That tarp is a metaphor for all of the secretive unlawful dealings that the felon in chief has done. Just like the reflecting pool is a metaphor for his entire presidency. You are lucky that you live close by and can go and see (or not see) it.

  7. The tarp just attracts more attention to the mess he made. Silly man.

  8. I can't imagine what it's like to live so close to the circus in Washington these days. I'm sure there are holes in that marble where the letters used to be. My guess is, they haven't repaired the holes thinking that somehow they will prevail and can put the letters back up.

  9. Ellen is right -- if they'd just take down the tarp people would stop coming around and the world would move on!

  10. The Fake President - hiding the truth behind the construction sheeting but it will have to come down one day. Besides - it is startlingly obvious that The Fake President has no interest whatsoever in "the performing arts". He never had. He is a ****ing philistine who likes cage fighting, grabbing women in a vulgar manner and cheating in golf.
