Part Of My Design...

Any man who afflicts the human race with ideas must be prepared to see them misunderstood.
-H.L. Mencken

Part of my design, was giving the world alternatives
Part of my design, was spreading love
Part of my design, was giving the world a sedative
Part of my design, was tough-
-Kid Creole "Part of My Design"

Not as tough as me, Corazón
Or the great Martin Luther King, my brother you should know
Not as tough as any Kennedy, but you don't stop pushin'
You keep on pushin'
-Haitia Fuller (same song)

It's just a screeplay contest, not the Pulitzer prize! You pretentious bastard!
-The Missus

No, The Missus didn't actually say that. So we might find out May 31st. Because as August Darnell, nee, Kid Creole once said, "part of my design, was giving the world a little bonhomie."

Kid Creole rocks.

Great quotes, and how dare you take credit for what I am sure The Missus really must have said.

Pretentious bastard.

Katie,

If that did happen, I *would* need a change of the boxer-briefs.

Pooks,
