Entitlement

Lots of folks (not so much on LJ) are talking about Cunningham's resignation from the House after pleading guilty to taking more than two million dollars in bribes. And as someone who votes Republican more often than not, maybe I should say something too.

castor_biber dropped me an e-mail this morning wondering if a particular set of lyrics that a friend had asked him about were mine or if I could possibly identify the author. I scrolled down and discovered that they were mine, all right.

I don't think I've sung this in about fifteen years. And now, a blast from the past...

Puppet Master

As long as I'm digging through the untranscribed material in my filk book, let's grab another song from the same period that ended up on the same live tape. I was entertained to find two substantially different hand-written versions of this song, which is really unusual for me. What I've got here appears to be the second version and that seems to be a good thing, looking at the first version.

There's a wonderful quote that I tripped across somewhere: If you look into the future, don't be surprised if the future looks back at you and has ideas of its own.
