Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for October 07, 2012

Moral: Girls just want a “yes boy”. Like Republicans, they are not interested in facts.

Since when did she care about romance?

Look up into the sky…see all those romantic twinkly bits? They’re actually flaming cauldrons of nuclear hell…give me a smooch, sugar-hips?

Agnes in the mix could be interesting too.

Never thought about butterflies being made out of butter.Thanks Wiley.

@JohnnyDiego “The other day someone actually told me the sun was a star and did I ever laugh.How can anyone be so dumb?”

Yes, it is rather dumb to laugh at a statement like that.Open your mind!

Trio from hell: Calvin, Danae, and Lio…

I have a hard time imagining what Danae would grow up to be. Leona Helmsley, perhaps?

Guys need to read more Harlequin to understand that women will always fall for guys who look like Fabio and secretly like Reese Witherspoon movies and fine wines. In other words, that gay guy from My Best Friend’s Wedding.

just like that book, men are from mars, and women are from venus.

@ “The J.A.M.” – precisely what I was thinking!

Although she’s a little young, give her afew years and then pair her off with Eno !!!

I’ve heard of butterflies, dragon flies, horse flies, fruit flies and button flies. How many more are there?

Perhaps the most hilarious scene in perhaps the worst “war movie” ever made was at the end of “The Green Berets” when John Wayne and the little Vietnamese kid are at Da Nang, watching the sun set over the ocean horizon: IN THE EAST!

We who were treated to an exclusive premier of the movie at Ft. Benning had been laughing through most of the movie, oh, it was sooooo bad, but that scene was the real “kicker”!!

Sadly Danae, it is the fact “little boys” pump romance INTO war, that sucks intelligence from the human mind, and spirit.

Reminds me of the bell jar experiment from high school. Where the teacher put a ringing bell in a jar and sucked the air out so it didn’t make anymore sound. It was an artificial vacuum. No such luck with Danae; people can still hear her.

Dude, please stop making these absurd and offensive comments. Whoever you are, you’re embarrassing my favorite team.

Roctor: read Alice Through the Looking glass to discover the bread and butterfly.

pouncer and denis, go away. If Wiley decides to go political on one of these..(And don’t rule it out.) We’ll let you know…I look forward to your fair and balanced perspective…

“She spends too much time in hell”

+++++

Well, she’s so good at creating it…

“Oh, look,” she said. She was a confirmed Oh-looker. I had noticed this at Cannes, where she had drawn my attention in this manner on various occasions to such diverse objects as a French actress, a Provençal filling station, the sunset over the Estorels, Michael Arlen, a man selling coloured spectacles, the deep velvet blue of the Mediterranean, and the late mayor of New York in a striped one-piece bathing suit. “Oh, look at that sweet little star up there all by itself.” I saw the one she meant, a little chap operating in a detached sort of way above a spinney. “Yes,” I said. “I wonder if it feels lonely.” “Oh, I shouldn’t think so.” “A fairy must have been crying.” “Eh?” “Don’t you remember? ‘Every time a fairy sheds a tear, a wee bit star is born in the Milky Way.’ Have you ever thought that, Mr. Wooster?” I never had. Most improbable, I considered, and it didn’t seem to me to check up with her statement that the stars were God’s daisy chain. I mean, you can’t have it both ways. “Don’t you love this time of the evening, Mr. Wooster, when the sun has gone to bed and all the bunnies come out to have their little suppers? When I was a child, I used to think that rabbits were gnomes, and that if I held my breath and stayed quite still, I should see the fairy queen.” Indicating with a reserved gesture that this was just the sort of loony thing I should have expected her to think as a child, I returned to the point.

Madeline Bassett and Bertie Wooster, Right Ho, Jeeves! (P.G. Wodehouse)

Something along the lines of Quentin Tarantino.

So if we team Trout with Calvin and have Agnes with Danae …. Let Bob & Jeffrey stand aside and take notes (or keep score)…..Who takes over the world first? And how many trips to the principal will that take? … can anyone do the math on this one?

This may be a little picky, but a butterfly was originally a “flutter-by,” as observed by the way they fly. The term “butterfly” is actually a “Spoonerism” that stuck. Go configure.
