September rhymes with Dismember…
To all the brave souls who managed to make it through both the Democratic National Convention and the Republican National Convention, we salute you. To those of you who only watched Ron Paul’s Counter-Convention, we say good luck on avoiding that income tax. We hear that fight’s going well. DJ Lyz and I stuck it out through both major conventions, our eyes and ear fixed boldly to C-SPAN for hours at a time. And what did we learn?
Modern American politics are a lot like high school. What a bunch of drama queens.
Now that we’re exhausted and find ourselves unaccustomed to eating dinner without hearing someone call someone else inexperienced or out-of-touch, it’s time to unwind and listen to some music.

In case you’re wondering about the lyrics to that tune, here they are: bask in their poetic glory:
People won’t be people when they hear this sound
That’s been glowing in the dark at the edge of town
People won’t be people, no
The people won’t be people when they hear this sound
Won’t you show me what begins at the edge of townThe singer is a crook
The singer is a crook
The singer is a crook
The singer is a crook
The kitchen is the cook
The scissors are the barbers
The singer is a crook
The chorus, full of actors**The chorus doesn’t matter (last verse)
