Huzzah! A good day to you all, fellow bipeds.

I took a little pause from writing to attend to some personal matters and am back at the warrior keyboard with TWO BIG ANNOUNCEMENTS.

1) Movie Night!

Beginning next Thursday, April 3rd at 8:00PM ET and each Thursday thereafter I will be hosting Movie Night on ZOOM where we can get together and watch a terrific flick that I will share from my PC.

Rather than go into detail click over to my website where I explain it all, with a schedule of Coming Attractions, including blockbusters like…

  • The Truman Show

  • V For Vendetta

  • The Loved One

  • A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Moon

  • THX 1138

  • America: Freedom To Fascism

  • Canadian Bacon

  • The Search For The Holy Grail

  • The Manchurian Candidate

  • The French Connection

  • The Truth Behind The Income Tax

And, by all means, please do write to me with your suggestions for additions to this list.

2) Doc Godley Steps Out Of the Closet

Beginning tomorrow I will publish a series of articles from a book written 20 years ago by the inimitable Dr. J. Darwin Godley, notorious founder of the Church Of The Hole-y D(o)nut.

As some of you already know, Doc Godley was sent as ambassador to Earth by the Great Galactic Donut which encompasses our slowly rotating universe where it can keep an eye on things.

The following introduction from the great man’s needs no further introduction:

Once in a lifetime a great visionary arrives to offer such wisdom and guidance to all of humankind that everything spiritual is made clear, and no belief system is left behind.

A towering messenger of such unimpeachable integrity that none dare speak against him, not even his tax preparer.

Is J. Darwin Godley such a man? No, not really. But a few drinks later, and the sincerity oozing out of this great man becomes apparent to all but the most cunning Atheist.

Even as organized religion crumbles into a disorganized pile of false promises, as religious cash flow dwindles to a trickle and collection plates go begging for dimes, this great man towers alone as the top sales and marketing guy for the one, true (and tastiest) belief system.

Yes, J. Darwin Godley, spiritual guide to the lost, confessor to the lonely and beneficiary to the bereaved (forms available in the office).

Whether playing the organ during Sunday worship services (and according to the choir ladies, it’s a BIG organ), or grilling at Ladies Club barbecues in a pair of tight Speedos, Doc Godley does it all.

Children find him fascinating, men find him enviable, women find him irresistible and the tax authorities can’t find him.

Truly it can be said, never before has one done so much to hypnotize so many.

Doc asked me to edit his book for republication and I thought… heck, why not edit and republish it here in plan view to be enjoyed by all?

I’m sure you’re going gonna’ love it. I’m equally sure that it will lose me a few subscribers.

But every tree needs an occasional pruning. And if I lose a few pious prunes, so be it!

Back tomorrow…
