Trivial Detail, silly poem, and a Scott Woods challenge

Waiting for the Ambien to work before I sleep…

I should drive home but
I think I’ll wait a bit
until I’m sleepy —
I don’t want to miss anything.

Dear Mr. President Scott “Zod” Woods:

I think you should have a virtual press conference here on LJ so that all of the aspiring journalists and interested parties could hear your thoughts on the future of slam, PSI, and other things poetic.

You know — post a request for questions and then take what you get.

Naturally, I wouldn’t expect that this crowd would ask you any SERIOUS questions…in fact, I’m actively discouraging it right here and now for the record. Your snarkiness is what I’d like to hear, especially as it relates to things like the prop rule and the group piece rule and why slam isn’t a required activity in all public schools and what you plan to do about it, dammit.

This is, of course, just a request from an unworthy constituent and therefore meaningless unless I am living in Florida in an election year, at which point it becomes a mutable and tension fraught exercise in the nature of reality and the integrity of our democracy — but I digress.

Your most humble servant,
Tony “pain in the ass” B
