Friday==>Snowing Again In The Big Apple.

It is snowing again but it is not expected to reach blizzard intensity. The predictions are for 2 to 5 inches of “powder” snow with little, if any, accumulation. We will see.


Of course Mayor Mike has been on a nonstop PR blitz to assure “us” that The City is ready this time for whatever happens. Sorry Mike, but you are two weeks too late to win us back.


The view from PHC, on the 41st floor, is awesome and I am nice and warm and comfortable. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.


As you loyal and faithful readers will no doubt recall, when Billi Pod gave his report card on DRACULA he predicted that the critics were going to drive a stake through its heart when it opened ... well ... tada ... they just did that and almost everyone hated the show and the so-called actor playing Dracula.


According to internet buzz the show will probably close this weekend.


Which leads into Billi Pod’s report card on --


BEIRUT==>F<==worst show in a long long time, 10 times worse than DRACULA. The acting sucked and I can’t remember less applause from an audience at a curtain-call. Thank God it is only 60 minutes long.


Tonight’s entertainment event --


9:30==>JOHN FAUSTUS AND THE OVERCLOCKED DEATH DRIVE-“a frenetic and futuristic multimedia adaptation of The Tragical History of Dr. Faustus.”


Oh yes, this time it is a brilliant young programmer who sells his soul to the Devil. Hummmmm ... hello Mark Zuckerberg, it that you?


The nice thing about this show is that it is playing in a theater just 3 short blocks from my building.


I am happy to report that I got the new printer all setup and am becoming very comfortable with my new machine. Will do some data transfers this afternoon (what better way to pass the time on a snow-day) and figure out what stays and what goes.


So, my loyal and faithful readers, I leave you with what I know will be Billi Pod’s most controversial musing thus far. Please, just think about it for a few minutes before you judge ...


Musings from THE MIND OF BILLI POD (a memoir in progress):


“Who circumcised God?”


Remember==> please think about it ...


GO GATORS AND GO YANKEES!!

Re the memoir in progress, I enjoy reading and "contemplating" each and every one--now, as to Who Circumcised God, several comments come to mind: 1) Maybe God doesn't have "anything" to circumcise or 2) Maybe He was circumcised from the moment of His Godness. If he was in need of circumcision, I have NO idea who did the deed.

My personal faves from the Billi Pod's Mind are:

*****“A good deed usually results in roadkill and psoriasis of the liver.”
*****“A platypus never puts the seat down.”
*****“Decoding the female psyche is more difficult than learning quantum physics taught in Gaelic.”
*****“Despite repeated denials from CBS, Andy Rooney died on December 13, 2009.”
*****“Dorothy begat Toto who begat Satan who begat Beyonce who begat Carl Hiaasen.”
*****“I also save souls,” said the Jewish cobbler.
*****“Joshua fought and won the Battle of Jericho despite being uncircumcised.”
*****“Monte Python hates snake jokes.”
*****“No one has ever re-read Jane Eyre.”

These are priceless!!

Continue the fine reporting. R
