Props to you AIG execs getting $100M in bonuses! People are angry about them, insinuating they were unearned, but I think of them as reward for you knowing that your company has bought a membership in a perpetual oligarchy, selling policies that you knew you could never pay claims on, and knowing that the government would bail you out so you could keep selling policies on shitty investments.

I think you are among the smartest motherfuckers ever to leave a skidmark on $400 Gucci briefs, and if I could blow you all and be guaranteed a deal like that, then I'd be pulling the kneepads on so fast my shin hairs would be sheared off! Huzzah for crony capitalism, and may the best connected man win!

Happy New Year!

I am inviting you to join the fun in my new animated show, Cats and Rats, which will be posted on youtube and linked on this blog Fridays by 9pm PT.

It's alien Cats vs alien Rats in a covert propaganda war for the future of civilization! The show chronicles the operations of a special intelligence unit called the Ratguard. It is an allied team of humans and Gattans (cat-like humanoids that can change into regular cats or humans), who fight a covert war against the Rattans (you guessed it, rat-like creatures also with shape-shifting powers), who aim to conquer the Earth.

The Ratguard operates out of Area 51 in Roswell, and by treaty is led by a human. The team has specialists who investigate various propaganda and scare stories which have been linked to an incident of a Rat biting and poisoning the mind of an unwitting celebrity. The bites' infection causes paranoia and fear by overdriving the emotional centers of the brains. The Rats' purpose is to induce the celebrity to publicly support a SCARE CAUSE...an emotionally-charged cause which has little rational basis, but wins power for the Rats, who have infiltrated both government and media, and intend to expand government power under a constant barrage of manufactured crises.

The Cats counter the irrationality of the Rat victims' behaviors with a combination of reason and high-tech surgery. The team breaks down the security, economic, or scientific justifications for taking our freedoms: fear of crisis, terror, sickness, danger, unemployment, and any other risk that the Rats promise will be reduced by surrendering our liberties.

Warning: the show uses adult language and adult rationality!

I attended this excellent speech, and was very inspired by Gabriella Holt, president and CEO of Citizens for California Reform, which is promoting a very popular initiative to return the California legislature to a part-time legislature (which it was until 1966). She is organizing a petition drive, with the assistance of the John and Ken Radio Show, to enact an amendment to change the legislature's status to part-time. California is one of 7 states with a full time legislature, and they are the highest paid. Gabriella is a brilliant and tenacious advocate. She is an RN, CPA, teacher, and a lawyer, and a tireless proponent for small government.

Here is part one, and the other 5 parts are linked below.
