Why are you called “Gelf”?
It was our first idea, and we haven’t had any better ones. You’ll remember it, won’t you? [Gelf gelf Gelf.] Which is the point, after all. The New Republic is neither new nor a republic. And The Nation hardly represents the Nation, the Wall Street Journal is largely a journal not of Wall Street, but of other stuff. We hear The Economist isn’t actually about Economics. [Gelf gelf Gelf GELF.] And the New York Review of Books has all these essays that aren’t about books at all. Stop bugging us. We have no good answers, only longish ones. More examples of titular mismatches appreciated. [Gelf gelf Gelf GELF. Gelf!] Where are all the stones rolling to anyway?
LOL !
i love it when i inadvertently come across someone & something truly irreverent & creative…

ON BEINGA CANDIDATETO TAKE OVERA LATE-NIGHT
NETWORKTALK SHOW.
BY MICHAEL IAN BLACK
Culturally aware Americans are no doubt aware that a certain late-night talk show is currently seeking a new host. Because I am a candidate for this position and because I do not want to jeopardize my chances of getting the job, I will not say which network the show is on, but I will give you a hint. Its initials are CBS.
Perhaps you too would like to be considered for this job. Keep dreaming, sucker. You’ve got a better chance of being crowned King of Siam. (And just for the record—SIAM DOESN’T EVEN EXIST ANYMORE.)
The truth is, there are very few people qualified for this job. For one thing, you have to be a celebrity. Fortunately, I am (very famous). Also, you’ve got to know everything about everything. Luckily, I do. For example, I was the guy who informed you that Siam doesn’t exist anymore. Now it’s some other country whose name I do not know…..

from my 1999 travels there….i found this sort of whimsy wonderfully abundant all-around Madison…
with the current debate of “rain” goals becoming cliched & nausating, The Rain Maker won me over with their goal of
“Be Sarcastic in the rain“
....and just when i thot that couldnt be topped, i then saw that Every goal on their list envolves The Rain. (another favorite: “Comes inside when it starts to rain…” )
Many Cheers, RainMaker !!
