The Ghost of Plumbing Past

Our pal Akaky, one of the (apparently few) literate denizens of the upper regions of the Vampire State, frequently works at trying to be funny. And sometimes he scores big, as in this post of the preceding headline:

“One would think, given that the dead are, in fact, dead, and therefore have no further need for an excretory system that they would choose to inhabit some other portion of the house, like the living room, the bedrooms, or the kitchen, rooms redolent with time and family memory, unlike the bathroom, which is only redolent of last night’s dinner.”

Read on. If you need a good laugh. And who doesn’t?

Shameless political promotion

Akaky, he of (as he puts it) the Vampire State, has raised another $5.75 for his pursuit of the Democrat presidential nomination, after he crosses the street to redeem the bottles at the grocery. But the MSM is still ignoring him and Daily Kos hasn’t even taken to sneering at his conservative views and demanding that he, like Joe Lieberman, be run out of the party. So he’s taken to slyly including the name of former Playmate Roberta Vasquez in his political posts, a naked (as it were) attempt to raise his hit count. That’s because he had previously noticed that his mentions of her had drawn an inordinate large number of search engine visitors.

Underfunded but unbowed

Akaky, of the Passing Parade, tosses his cap into the ring of Democrat presidential hopefuls:

"…even the least prepared of this year’s candidates all have political war chests amounting, in some cases, in the tens of millions of dollars, whereas I, on the other hand, have some $15.63 left over from last week’s pay check, a sum that would more or less limit my political advertising to spray painting my name on buildings, cars, and unsuspecting passersby as they wander down Main Street looking for the crack dealers."

Why, you may ask? And he answers: Why not? His platform: he won’t rock the boat.
