The Daily News
1 Well, I guess that virus has somehow embedded itself into the womb of my computer, even though I still haven't really noticed too much of anything with the possible exception of the fonts suddenly turning small.2 Is it just me or is the fellow from Oakland who was helping a sick friend and then came to the aid of a police officer is suddenly vilified with "retaliation" for doing what anyone would have done?
3 OMG, honestly.
4 I'm so blown away by that story that I don't even know what to say. The guy leaves a friend to help another human being who was dying, and winds up becoming a controversial figure and a betrayer of the community.
5 Are you kidding me?
6 Ah, my.
7 Moving on: That is simply too stupid to comment on.
8 Speaking of stupid: Is Taylor Hicks REALLY going to be the lead at the Golden Gate Theater in San Francisco?
9 I heard Randy Johnson is going to be Danny.
10 So no telling whom the Hickster plans to play.
11 The only guy Taylor Hicks should play would be the lead character in The Jay Leno Story, a play that I began around four thousand plays-I-started ago.
12 That's the sort of nonsense that I come up with every time I take a nice long stream off a doobie.
13 Do bee. M'bad. I accidentally misspelled it.
14 I need to clarify that one. When I was young, there was a show called Romper Room, which had this lady named Miss Nancy, later replaced by Miss Mary Ann, later replaced by Miss Sally, later replaced by Miss Nancy. You get the drift. They were kinder teachers who became legends, and across the generations she kept getting replaced. There was Miss Florence, and a Miss...well, I don't want to miss anybody <hehe> so I won't name them all. It eventually franchised out so there were myriad hosts as time moved on.
15 Anyway, it was this kids' show with this teacher lady who would teach little kids all about morality and life and stuff.16 She taught millions of young children what kind of person they should be. She had a sidekick, a bee named Mr. Do Bee.
17 Entire generations of kids grew up admiring Do Bees.
18 Back then, if you said you were going to smoke a doobie, it meant that you were going to shoot a really nice bee.
19 Anyway, you were taught what sort of person you should be by a simple series of demands: Do bee a good person; don't be annoying.
20 I'm not making any of this up.
21 I'm thoroughly convinced that the entire concept of "two ups" comes from RR also.
22 Two-ups was this thing that many veterans of Camp Anytown/Everytown would probably remember like it was yesterday. If someone was mean to another,
they owed that person "two-ups" which was two compliments.23 This definitely traces back to Mr. Do Bee and Romper Room, which really helped mold much of America today.
24 We owe a lot of what we are to Mr. Do Bee.
25 So yeah. Do bee nice. Do help your neighbor. Don't bee mean to someone who is trying to be a good citizen.
26 Don't bee cruel.
27 So...JUST now as I wrote this, Michael J. Fox was on Letterman. He JUST talked about Katmandubians.
28 Do bee-leave.
29 Have a wonderful weekend, willya?
29 Peace.
