THE SMELL OF GARDENIAS?

In a marked departure from habit, several of the poisonous old toads were not in the back room yowling today. Which was a welcome relief. Normally Saturday and Sunday are rife with insult, calumny, and slanderous statements to non-existent bogymen, or liberals not actually present but very much resented. One of the rightwing chuckleheads did show up briefly, caught sight of an engineer, whined and grumbled a bit in the front area, and left.

So Hecky and I actually had a peaceful day. I smoked a Comoy Tradition from the early fifties filled with a mixed Virginia of my own devizing, as well as a pudgy Dunhill bruyere billiard. Hecky limited himself to cigars.

Mark, a retired gentleman who likes 7x70s, came in, showed that he was still on top of his game with a few witty sarcastic statements that, if the senile rightwing blisters could have actually heard them would have hurt the poor old dears, and left happy as a clam. Like me he looks forward to the entire national shitcan sinking, which will happen in due course now that the comic opera villains are play-acting at government (rank amateurs and incompetents afflicted by paranoia, alcoholism, rich fantasy lives, and hubris, but no actual talents).

None of the folks with truly bizarre realities were aware of this.
They aren't very aware to begin with anyway.
Barely sentient.

But they're a fairly typical slice of Marin. Do not expect much intelligence there. It's the place where the age of aquarius came home to roost. It's filled with auras and chakras, as well as disembodied third eyes. The adults never left the room, because they were never in it to begin with. And perhaps there is no room. Don't obsess about rooms, grasshopper.

It's the only place in the world where bitter old fascists rely on crystals and burning sage.


Mill Valley is where the revival of human sacrifice is most likely.
