Uplifting note of the day - I am finally free from the bondage of physical therapy! My wrist is now fully cleared to engage in its regularly scheduled programming of bending, flexing, and strutting. The strutting is provided care of the small amount of hip bone that is now fused to my arm bone, giving a whole new lyric to that bone song - “The hip bone’s connected to the arm bone.” That’s alright...I already have a few other extra connections - I sneeze when I’m hungry, leading me to hypothesize that my nose and stomach are connected by more than a mere esophageal tube.
In less uplifting news, it appears that Michael Richards (most famous for playing Cosmo Kramer on “Seinfeld”) decided to unleash his inner KKK at a stand-up comedy routine in Los Angeles last Friday. After evidently tiring of a black heckler in the audience, Richards shouted, “Fifty years ago they’d have you hanging upside down with a fucking fork up your fucking ass,” and the repeatedly referred to the man as a “N-gg–.” The video of the outburst can be seen here. Now, if we could only get Richards and Mel Gibson on a stage, together . . .
