SHREW

I have been lost for a very long time.

Dad's talking in his sleep, muttering about communists and low-carb diets. I'm holding an axe, ready to strike if he says anything demonic. He will. Demons love possessing old people, at least according to the movies I've seen. I think back and smile. Exorcist III. Not perfect, but a damn good film.

Snuffing out the spark of dignity in my soul which ennobles us and sets us apart from the mindless beasts who would sooner eat their own young than reflect upon life and its wonders to own the libs.

It's been said that time heals all wounds. This is not true. Different wounds require different treatments. For example: Time heals temporal wounds. Music heals sonic wounds. Food heals nutritional wounds. Friendship heals social wounds. Bathing heals hygienic wounds. Logic heals thought wounds.

The United States ends tonight. The old system of states has failed. The American People will replace them. Every person must become their own state, with their own laws, customs, identities, and sports teams. Where once were 50, now are 300 million. Welcome to the Disunited States, "citizen."

BREAKING NEWS: A loud voice was just heard throughout the District of Columbia, saying "My work here is done," and shortly thereafter the Washington Monument flew up into the sky and disappeared. Early reports are indicating that we are on our own now.

In keeping with the rising tide of political sadism in the country, U.S. officials announced that today's fireworks are being set off exclusively to terrorize dogs and other weak-willed animals.

While the hamburger is an obvious and fitting choice, for my money, no food is more American than the hot dog, and yes, it's because of its phallic nature.

Our family will not be celebrating with fireworks (a Chinese invention) on this very special Fourth of July. Instead, we will load our wagons and travel westward in search of land and gold, forcibly displacing any native peoples we find there, but in a colorblind way, as MLK would've wanted.

Regardless of the actual causes of the Great Depression, Herbert Hoover should've been burned at the stake in order to appease the gods and restore the people's faith in government.

The "W" in George W. Bush stands for "Weasel." The "H. W." in George H. W. Bush stands for "Hated Weasel." The "J. E. B." in Jeb Bush stands for "Jealous Enraged Beast."
