Peter & Bugs: Analysts & Therapists (or Analrapists for short)
The Furnace here, reporting to you from the heart of ShrubLand (not to be confused with Shrubville): Austin, Texas. The nice thing about being in Austin is that you get the Tom DeLay trial stories fresh from the courthouse where local reporters haven't gotten the GOP memos on how to report the story. My favorite snippet from Friday's hearing: DeLay's attorney saying that since the judge is a Democrat who donated to MoveOn.org he should recuse himself - especially since MoveOn was selling t-shirts with Tom Delay's mugshot on the front. Except, of course, MoveOn was NOT selling those shirts. So you tell me - did one of the highest paid attorneys in the world forget to have one of his assistants actually go to the website and make sure, or did he flat out lie in court? And is it just me, or is DeLay's mugshot the creepiest one ever?
Speaking of creepy (yeah I know, that's a weak transition), today's Prickly City is one of the most disturbing ever - and this coming on the heels of the worst attempt ever at capturing Ted Kennedy in comic form. I get the shivers just thinking about Stantis's motivation for showing Teddy in a bathrobe.
As for today: Winslow tries on some bunny slippers. He's turned all topsy turvy. Why? Turns out the BUNNY SLIPPERS WERE MADE OF LIVE BUNNIES because they were "eco-friendly."
How the HELL does Winslow put on live rabbits as slippers? All I have to say is that the heads were at his toes, and there's only one way he's getting those things on his feet from behind.
No, I'm going to say it: today Scott Stantis shows Winslow sticking his feet up the asses of live rabbits. All in an effort to show how wacky those environmentalists can be.
Stantis, you're a freak. And not in a good, Rick James/Superfreak sort of way. More of a freak like this.
