So I get this email with all sorts of attitude from my friend, Pat Piscatelli, about missing the POTW Selection.
~
Patrick...."Et tu Brute!"
~
Pat knows Latin and is classically educated as a former street kid from Taft School, so he knows exactly what I am saying to him.
~
But for you other boneheads, it is a quote from Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar". And it stands for... "Why did you stick the freaking knife in me Brutus? I thought you were my freaking friend!"
~
It's sad that I have to explain everything. And you really have no excuse. I read Shakespeare at Lynn English High School, not some hoity-toity, pedigreed academy like Shrewsbury High or something.

Anyway...

I rekomends you keep your woolies on and a flagon of antifreeze on the bench seat of yer vehicle.
I have a comment on some of yer spectatin' in days of past. Its plenty cold here in Skinny Smoke Holler, and I recreate my evenings on my sofa (that is what thems in france call a couch) watchin' tv. Since I spliced in my neighbors cable, I gets some primo channels, all fer nothin' but a tip of the cap on my mornin' jaunt.
Likes I says, I am watchin the pay fer it shows, and this "Rome" serial youse was so high on comes streakin' in. I am all for edifying myself, so I settle in with my flagon of mead and barrel of pork rinds. scene 1, some hussy gives this other hussy, as a sort of house warming present, a hatchet faced mute with a dork as big as ole Sugarfoots, tied down like a bronc. She goes on to say "large penis is a most gracious gift, don't youse think?" Great Caesar's Testicles, what the hell is this nonsense? These Eyetalian's, what was goin' on there? I means, I can appreciate a good public execution, and I likes lions at the circus that come through town, but what in the hell happened here? I am all for the lady folk sharin' a recipe for butter cookies and sending over a roast chicken to say "welcomes to the trailer park", but who in the hell gets to sending over a chattel with a pecker like a Louisville Slugger? Quites a leap, them hollywood pinkos is taking with the legacy of them no good pope lovin' garlic breathin' ginnies.
