I said many times that if George W. Bush won fair and square on November 2, I would close down this site. This is my final blog. What you are looking at today is all that's left. You will not be able to play here any more. The grounds are closing. I am now going to fiddle while Amerika burns.
I am letting my old friend, the esteemed Dr. Hunter Thompson, write the final words of the Big Mattress blog.
(Those of you who are regulars know how to reach me. Love you all... Mean it.)
"We have become a Nazi monster in the eyes of the whole world, a nation
of bullies and bastards who would rather kill than live peacefully. We are
not just Whores for power and oil, but killer whores with hate and fear in
our hearts. We are human scum, and that is how history will judge us. No
redeeming social value. Just whores. Get out of our way, or we'll kill
you.
Who does vote for these dishonest shitheads? Who among us can be happy
and proud of having all this innocent blood on our hands? Who are these
swine? These flag-sucking half-wits who get fleeced and fooled by stupid
little rich kids like George Bush?
They are the same ones who wanted to have Muhammad Ali locked up for
refusing to kill gooks. They speak for all that is cruel and stupid and
vicious in the American character. They are the racists and hate mongers
among us; they are the Ku Klux Klan. I piss down the throats of these
Nazis.
And I am too old to worry about whether they like it or not. Fuck
them."
Hunter Thompson

You sonofabitch! I was out today representing some Godawful headache inducing wine at a liquor store in Woburn for the station, and some crusty old listener asked if I ever hear from you. I said that I had not in some time, but that I check out your blog all the time, \"cuz it\'s full of funny shit\". I had to tell them that you were beaten down by a bunch of Christian Evangelicals a la Curt \"Jesus Pitched for me\" Schilling\".
Are you really calling it quits? Did you back down when Jerry Charm imposed the \"food free radio zone\"? When Patrick Murray gave away the big cash contest answer with the tease,\"...the 5,000th song coming up next on ZLX.\"? When Hadgi felt a womans holiest of holy\'s and exclaimed, \"...gross, it feels like wet corduroy!\" Did you... ah fuck it, satellite radio is taking over the world. I\'m getting a bowtie and playing the Oak Ridge Boys A to Z.
John Ashcroft is the Ozzy of a new world order!
So long you commie bastard.

Those of us who've known Charles understand that there's no way to keep a good clone down. I read this with the feeling of finality and beginning. The phoenix will not die... cannot, and don't want to.
We've been teased before.... the first retirement, the last tour... the final show(s). In the end, the end is a beginning... a new start of time. But wait, I'm rambling... must be the cold/heat (depending on where you are).
One song played last week for two reasons. The Red Sox win and the country's loss... "It's the End of the World as we know it, and I feel fine!"
