Slugs of the Wine Mountain

You know, I'm heartened by the news that somewhere in the world, you can't be fired if you're drunk. It's a sign the world is moving in the right direction. And, I wish I'd had, many more resources when I was young that would teach me about things like boogers, smegma, and the seven diseases grown-ups get.

So this is the thing.

I am continually surprised to find out that I am a rather terrible communicator. I always thought I was, you know, kinda good at that. It's been a fairly large part of what I consider to be my 'calling'...or at the very least, one of the things about me I feel good about. Also, this is, apparently, International Oh Hey Is That A Shiny Thing Day.

Oh hey! Is that a shiny thing?!!

I thought about posting something on the Federal budget, but the thought police caught up with me and insisted I should instead eat a pile of salted peanuts. And so I did.

What's your favourite colour?

The federal budget isn't worth posting about. It is merely smoke and mirrors.

In a search for International Oh Hey Is That A Shiny Thing Day, I found this joke, which I do not get. I was hoping you could help out.

"Somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean, two submarines, Soviet and American, come to the surface. The Soviet one is old and rusty; the American one is new and shiny. On the Soviet one, the crew lounges about without any order, and a drunken captain yells at them: 'Who threw a valenok (traditional Russian winter footwear made of felt) on the control board? I'm asking you, who threw a valenok on the control board?!'. From the American submarine, a shaved, sober and well-dressed captain, notes sarcastically: 'You know, folks, in America...'. The Russian captain interrupts him, screaming: 'America? America??! There is none of your fucking America anymore!' (Turns back to the crew) 'Who threw a valenok onto the control board?!'"

Also, yellow.

Also... oooh, shiny!


And... did you know, re: the federal budget, that Mr. Stupid (your MP) was quoted as saying (with respect to the idea that this deficit can be paid off in the next 5 years) "We're certainly banking on it" (and, I can only imagine, "ha ha ha"). !!!!! Not funny!!

... You know what, I think I get it. I think that America was destroyed when somebody hit a button putting that valenok on the control board.
