In Astrology, Venus is the planet of love and attraction. But if you casually misspell that, Venus is the PLANT of love. And isn’t that more manageable? It’s like I said to my friend who fell in love and had the running-away-in-a-desert-without-feet dream (scroll down) – when she said, we are going away to stay in a cottage in the middle of nowhere for a week. I said, be careful that the Ts are crossed. If you don’t cross the Ts, then you’ll be staying in a collage, which is not pleasant or advisable in early February. Too cold and drafty.

Remember that song by Shocking Blue (Rob van Leeuwen) from 1969 – called Venus – ? One of the most mis-heard lyrics ever. I particularly like:


Misheard Lyrics:

I’ve got myself a muffing job

Correct Lyrics:

The goddess on the mountain top

The idea of finding employment as a vaginal attendant has me reaching for my gold vellure cloak and Barbarella boots.

Mars meanwhile has been found to be made of chocolate. If you find it, let me know, would you?

    Hello, blog friend!

    I’m trying to raise money for March of Dimes: Walk America through a blog raffle. Have anything you can contribute to the prizes?? Maybe a banner or blog design? A fantastic guest post? A call-out on your fabulously popular blog? A copy of your favorite book? A cd of the most wonderful songs? Visit me if you do… or just if you want more info!

    If not, no problem — but be sure to come visit (and donate if you can!) next week!

    p.s. If you’re willing to link to me next week to send traffic the raffle’s way, let me know & I can send you the code for a pretty button!

    There is a big hole in the socialist wanker frontpage if you feel inspired or have any more pissed political leanings to write about. Hope all is well in funksville bro.
