You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll take your Baby Robots out of their hermetically sealed, lead-lined vaults and give them a hug. This week on Monkey Vortex Radio Theater: “I, Baby Robot,” written by, er, um, me. And starring the likes of Jeff Green, Heather Gottschalk, Christian Crumlish, EB, Hans van Boetzelaerlaan, and M. Smith. Now playing right here.

x-post: Brer Osama
So let’s see: Iran has a new democractically elected leader that, well, he’s not nice. Iraq is in the process of putting together a new government that’s likely to end up far more pro-Iran and pro-fundamentalism than the Bathists, and now Gaza and the West Bank have elected Hamas as their majority party.
I can just hear Brer Osama Bin Laden saying to Brer George W. Bush: “wow, if there’s one thing I can’t stand, it’s your democratic way of life. Please, Brer Mr. President, whatever you do, don’t throw me into that democracy patch.”

x-post: Reactionary Dander
All this prurient Pynchon appears to have nudged me into a reactionary dander. Read the results (“The Mainstreaming of Vice“) over on the mighty, the mighty, the mighty Edgewise. Unless you’re intimidated by my clear-thinking, straight-shooting, uninhibited sense of moral superiority. In which case, you know. It’s cool.

x-post: and the poem and the second line and the Nada Gordon of it all
After a longish, hard-drive induced hiatus, Monkey Vortex Radio Theater is back with our first new piece in about a month. This week: it’s a Koeneke/Soha transcontinental guitar/poem spectacular. I love it. My four-year-old loves it. And if you’re still the way I remember you being, and I’m pretty sure you are, you’ll love it too. Bop over and check it out: Poem with Its Second Line by Nada Gordon.
