Random Thought - or - Maybe I will not finish my entry about my Ass. Well, I will, but I want to get this in.

The nuclear family is a modern invention. As social innovation, it sucks the Big Badoody. Naturally, it was the gift of wealth and the corporations after the close of WW II. The concept that the nuclear family is the ideal has done a great deal of damage to America and American children.

The best way to raise children is in an extended family: grandparents, parents, children, aunts, uncles and cousins all living together cooperatively.

IMO the idea that we should live in nuclear families is a chief cause of our epidemic of child abuse. You do not know America is suffering from child abuse of epic proportions? You have not been reading my blog. Sometimes I am funny. Sometimes I suffer and yell about it. It is my blog.

Lots of yelling below:

My Ass is Gone

There was a young maid from Madras
Who had a magnificent ass.
Not rounded and pink
As you probably think
It was grey, had long ears, and ate grass!

Those of you who have been reading my blog know that I had both my knees replaced on August 10. I am getting about now. For 8 weeks I was confined to a bed with knees the size of large cantaloupes, lots of pain, and no appetite. Do you have any idea what 8 weeks of bed confinement does to your muscles, and your Ass in particular?

I have always loved the Limerick above. And I love my Ass. Miss Angie told me "That is the biggest ass I have ever seen on a white woman."

I made a lot of money shaking my Ass. And I miss it. The Ass, not the money.

Note: This photograph is not my ass. It is Lisa Lyon's ass photographed in 1980 by Mapplethorpe.
