art buchwald



i have been reading a little, and i emphasize a little, art buchwald recently. he died in january of this year, but he is a new discovery for me. he wrote a lot about nixon and his humor translates well to the present day shortcomings of our current executive.

before nixon resigned, buchwald adapted a dr. suess poem urging the president to leave. (insert george w. bush)





Richard M. Nixon will you please go now!
The time has come.
The time has come.
The time is now.
Just go.
Go.
Go!
I don't care how.
You can go by foot.
You can go by cow.
Richard M. Nixon will you please go now!
You can go on skates.
You can go on skis.
You can go in a hat.
But
Please go.
Please!
I don't care.
You can go
By bike.
You can go
On a Zike-Bike
If you like.
If you like
You can go
In an old blue shoe.
Just go, go, GO!
Please do, do, do, DO!
Richard M. Nixon
I don't care how.
Richard M. Nixon
Will you please
GO NOW!
You can go on stilts.
You can go by fish.
You can go in a Crunk-Car
If you wish.
If you wish
You may go
By lion's tale.
Or stamp yourself
And go by mail.
Richard M. Nixon
Don't you know
The time has come
To go, go, GO!
Get on your way!
Please Richard M.!
You might like going in a Zumble-Zay.
You can go by balloon . . .
Or broomstick.
Or
You can go by camel
In a bureau drawer.
You can go by bumble-boat
. . . or jet.
I don't care how you go.
Just get!
Richard M. Nixon!
I don't care how.
Richard M. Nixon
Will you please
GO NOW!
I said
GO
And
GO
I meant . . .
The time had come
So . . .
Richard WENT.

What do you think about these lyrics? Insert your name in the _____________.

Toy all your thing on me, _____.
Toy all your thing on me.
Toy all your thing on me, _____.
Toy all your thing on me.

Gatinha sai do chão, vai descender papazão,
gatinha sai do chão, vai descender popozão.

In Portugese it means “bring your ass”,
on the floor, and move it real fast.
I want to see your kitty and a little bit of titty–
want to know where I go when I’m your city?

_____, don’t you worry about all the dough,
because a cat is coming straight out of the know,
ready to rock those shows all the way to Rio.
Bring that Brazil booty on the floor.

Up, down, all around:
work that shit to the funky sound.
Going to see where I’m going, oh?

Po, Po, Po, Po, Papazao, Popozao
Po, Po, Po, Po, Papazao, Popozao
Po, Po, Po, Po, Papazao, Popozao

Gatinha sai do chão, vai descender papazão,
gatinha sai do chão, vai descender popozão.

Po, Po, Po, Po, Papazao, Popozao
Po, Po, Po, Po, Papazao, Popozao
Po, Po, Po, Po, Papazao, Popozao

Toy all your thing on me, baby.
Toy all your thing on me.
Toy all your thing on me, baby.
Toy all your thing on me.

We know very well how hard it can be to find dependable information about [url=http://muachungdeal.com/thoi-trang.html]Thoi trang nu[/url], and this can help you get rolling in the right direction. We are all familiar with the feelings of trying to find out about something and not even being certain of what is necessary. There is so much information online, and honestly it can be very difficult finding and knowing what you can trust. No person has been immune to this because it is just the nature of the online world, regrettably. The balance of this article will take a look at this important topic in a lot more detail.

The relative complexities of men's and women's fashion

Both men and women could feel the difficulties of keeping their clothing up-to-date and in season, yet men's style often feels a lot easier. Of course, for both genders, clothes and fashion choices could be just as intricate, and there are lots of'modern'items that can easily become fashion faux pas - who will say they often times see people walking on in 70s flames? On the other hand, men's fashion features a few staple items which can exist eternally - which man is going to look out of position with a good-quality, tailored suit, for instance? Choose basic pieces, colours and fabrics and you'll never seem out-of-place.

Why basic men's fashion is eternal

The traditional man's suit has hardly changed for over a hundred years. True, there are numerous options for different occasions, but they are all popular in their quest for a smart, sharp look for the wearer. The neat thing about common fashion for men is that it is effortlessly stylish effectively neat. A well-groomed lady can typically appear his sharpest in a well-tailored suit, and this can be a testament to the design of such apparel. A suit will be utilized to work in several occupations due to the professional search it offers to the person, instilling a feeling of respect and trust. Similarly a match will undoubtedly be utilized to several social events, such as a tuxedo to a black-tie affair. This extraordinary flexibility that enables matches to be utilized in almost all events is what gives it its classic side and a permanent devote men's fashion.

Modern trends in classic men's style

Although basic men's designs can never be changed, it is interesting to note that changes in men's fashion trends have produced certain common garments back into fashion. The recognition of vintage clothing, specifically, has had back a wide-variety of classic models into men's wardrobes, such as that of the dandy gentleman. 'Dandy'is a term used to refer to men who clothe themselves in a classic yet expensive way, placing value on appearance and working in a refined method. This development for almost'over-the-top'traditional fashion for men is apparent from events like the'Tweed Run', wherever men and women of all ages clothe themselves in obviously Victorian-style outfit and take to the roads on vintage cycles - with lots of the men wearing impressive mustaches! That is just one single of many examples of proof displaying the resurgence of such styles. Additionally, there are numerous sites on line which give attention to gentlemanly style - such as'The Dandy Project'and'Dandyism'- as well as whole internet sites such as'The Art of Manliness'dedicated to providing articles on common men's fashion and grooming.

In conclusion, although certain facets of common men's fashion could be cut back as new trends, the basic clothes that they derive from will never slip out of fashion.
