Ray’s Round Table - Three

All righty. Today we are fixing to have a round table parley similar to those on Sunday morning TV. In the best tradition of Media Liberal TV, and Media Conservative TV, all my guests, plus me, have incestuous relationships. Today’s round table guests, just like last Sunday, are, Ms. Hope Remains, Ace Reporter, Druid News Service; Dr. Rayetta Pistrum, the Lovely Druidess Rayetta; and my bosom companion, Mr. Crumby Ovate.

Yet as I look around the Round Table, one of my triplet quests is missing. Where is my bosom companion, Crumby the Ovate?

Sakes alive, Ray, Crumby is ensconced is his Orgone Box.

Dang it, Hope! We need four for the Round Table. Rayetta, I mean Dr. Pistrum, you need to go fetch Crumby to the Round Table.

Patience Ray. Crumby’s substitute shall arrive anon. In fact, here he is, none other than the famous Lleu Llaw Guffes, Lion of the Steady Hand. Now we have our fourth.

Uh. OK. Lleu Llaw, you appear to be chomping at the bit, so let us begin with your comment or opinion.

Thanks Ray. Yet I do not have a comment or opinion. But Master Crumby does, of course. Alas though, my Master is much wearied with the telescopery, plus his knee is also afflicted by gout, maybe. These travails have overcome my Master. Crumby has taken to his Orgone Box for a nap. So Crumby has directed me, Lleu Llaw, to divulge his opinion.

Great. So what is your Master’s opinion, Lleu Llaw?

Crumby’s opinion is that all the actual or aspiring Whores of Babylon, should, for a million dollars, or the going rate, whatever that might be, in return for services rendered to the rulers, have a nice W of B, symbolizing Whore of Babylon, tattooed, or maybe branded on their fore noggins. That way, the Whores of Babylon shall be readily identifiable as such, Whores of Babylon, on the TV. In addtion to the usual media suspects, all the kinglet wannabees, leaving out Dr. Paul and a couple of the Dems, maybe, need those tattoos or brands, fer sure. Except, of course, any of them that are actual rulers already, need Ruler tattooed or branded in their fore noggins, alternative to W of B.

Huh, huh. That’s pretty good Lleu Llaw. Tell Crumby when he wakes up, that’s pretty good. Huh, huh. W of B could also stand for, Whore of Bush. Huh, huh. All righty then, Ms. Hope Remains, Ace Reporter, my beautiful girl friend, your up next.

I’ll swan Ray. Our own well-coifed ROT Jefe, is headed out to get himself coronated as Vice Kinglet of US. If he succeeds on that adventure, he shall keep the ROT, Mississippi, and Senator Imhofe in the Mammonite column for sure in the distant upcoming. Goddess help US!

Whoa! Merciful Goddess, save US from the well-coifed! All righty then, finally, here’s my sister, the learned Dr. Pistrum with the CB ecology notes. Dr. Pistrum

Thanks Ray. The dearth of meaningful precipitation plus the unseasonable heat have combined for generally miserable ecological conditions at the CB. Two successive runt like dry northers have only worsened the misery. Surely, the Blessed WG shall not allow this situation to continue much longer.

Further, the dearth of precipitation at the CB has, for the first time this year, DY 1, engendered a paucity of flowers. That means the butterfly population has nose dived in response.

Last year at this time, on our journey through the depths of space, the snouts were ubiquitous. Now they are apparently extinct or biennial. Take your pick.

Also, we have too much dead grass standing or lying around. Ray, when Crumby wakes up, you two need to go out and clean up some of that grass. Cut it and pile it up somewhere. We can have some fall hay piles. Won’t that be fun! That’s all for now, Ray.

Dang it! How come I have to pile hay with Crumby, Rayetta? Crumby shall whine about his legs hurting plus shirk. Why, can’t Lleu Llaw here, or Lomo or even Raymone help me?

Nonsense Ray. Crumby is perfectly capable of helping as soon as he finishes his nap.

Great. Well that’s it for Ray’s Round Table this Sunday. Next week we may have a special guest, King Arthur. You won’t want to miss that. So watch out for the Wicker Man!!!!
