#877. Con Omicron

Largely thanks to memes and social media, there's this new wave of internet virologists.  All of them instant experts in the field.  But if you ask any of them to explain the basic differences between a virus and bacteria, I suspect they'll give you a blank stare and quickly change the subject to critical race theory or election fraud or whatever's the Fox News topic du jour.



 
Here comes the MEV - the Midterm Election Variant! They NEED a reason to push unsolicited nationwide mail-in ballots. Democrats will do anything to CHEAT during an election - but we're not going to let them!

This will become the primary Republican narrative and Trump talking point.  Why?  Because it's their best excuse for seizing control of local election boards and shrinking turnout.  And it's easily repetitive and explainable. 

Never let a good crisis go to waste. --- Winston Churchill

Never let a bad variant go to waste. --- Ronny Jackson

Gone Daddy Gone
Violent Femmes

Beautiful girl, lovely dress
High school smiles, oh yes
Beautiful girl, lovely dress
Where she is now I can only guess

'Cause it's gone, daddy, gone -- your love is gone
Yeah, it's gone, daddy, gone -- your love is gone
Yeah, it's gone, daddy, gone -- your love is gone
Yeah, it's gone, daddy, gone -- your love is gone away

When I see you, eyes will turn blue
When I see you, thousand eyes turnin' blue

'Cause it's gone, daddy, gone -- your love is gone
Yeah, it's gone, daddy, gone -- your love is gone
Yeah, it's gone, daddy, gone -- your love is gone
Yeah, it's gone, daddy, gone -- your love is gone away

Tell by the way that you switch and walk
I can see by the way that you baby-talk
I can know by the way you treat your man
I can love you, baby, 'til it's a-cryin...

'Cause it's gone, daddy, gone -- your love is gone
Yeah, it's gone, daddy, gone -- your love is gone
Yeah, it's gone, daddy, gone -- your love is gone
Yeah, it's gone, daddy, gone -- your love is gone away

Beautiful girl, lovely dress
Fifteen smiles, oh, yes
Beautiful girl, lovely dress
Where she is now, I can only guess 'cause it's...




Since 1986, the Violent Femmes have played the Burgh a grand total of 15 times.  Mason's a big fan.  Personally, I can take 'em or leave 'em.  Whenever someone cranks up Blister In The Sun, and people spontaneously start flailing about, I find myself increasingly angry and frustrated.

Violent Femmes:

7-17-17, Stage AE, Pittsburgh (w/ Echo & The Bunnymen)

9-15-21, Stage AE, Pittsburgh (we bolted just before Flogging Molly took the stage.  I hate the Irish emo folk shit genre.)
