WINTER NO MORE! WEATHER PATTERNS ADJUSTED TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE WOOGIE Woogus Coloradous happily basking on a balmy 70+ degree day today on the North Balcony of the Prankster's Prairie Palace.
New Woogie City, Woogistan · PMS · Residents of Woogistan rejoice as the Woogie has succeeded in his plan to stimulate Spring weather in the Winter of 2009. Record setting high temperatures in excess of 60 to 70 Human degrees have descended upon New Woogie City and Greater Woogistan since the Woogie's Weather Stimulus program was enacted by his Human in January. Residents of areas outside of Greater Woogistan are enduring record breaking cold and snow this year unlike those who live under the Rule of Claw.
Speaking to a jubilant crowd of Humans, Bobcats, Hamsters, Raccoons, Sea Anemone and great Apes from the North Balcony of the Palace, the Woogie declared, "My requirements to change the weather to my satisfaction were successfully implemented earlier this year and the results are clearly evident. Prank has managed the weather so that those who live under the umbrella of the Cat's Eye shall enjoy perfect weather conditions, as I define them. Those who foolishly and obstinately reject the Rule of Claw shall face much cold and snow as their punishment for not complying to the requirements of the Woogie. Perhaps those who are out of compliance will rethink their positions and soon conform." The Woogie then rolled over and resumed his nap in the Sun as the crowd below cheered his impromptu speech wildly.

RE: The Woogie discusses pajamas, thumbs, the unacceptability of velcro, and the glory of Woogistan
Greetings to one and all, it is excellent to see all of you again. Yes, quite good it is. My senses tell me that your auras are optimized, that your consciousness is wide open, like a well plowed field before seed, to the advocations of the Woogie. Very good, now on to some issues that are on your minds.
Our lovely, multi-talented and very good friend ^BELLE^ recently praised the Woogie and called him the "cat's pajamas". ^BELLE^ later wondered in another comment to the Woogie the following. "Where did that phrase come from when cats don't wear pajamas....Or....do you....?"
The Feline is far evolved past the need to wear clothes, ^BELLE^, as have many creatures great and small. Yes, it's true. That's why I have all this lovely fur. You know, it's mostly the Humans who wear their pajamas and thongs, and that Mickey Mouse fellow with his red shorts with those ridiculous two white buttons and those big stupid yellow shoes or spats or whatever he wears on his back paws. And that moronic grin of his. I just want to bite his head off, and that fool Mighty Mouse in that hideous costume...now that outfit looks like pajamas,....but I digress.
Higher life forms such as the Feline have no need for pajamas. How on Earth would we get them on? We do not have opposable thumbs to button or unbutton pajamas, or operate a zipper. See what I mean? We have evolved beyond your primitive Human thumbs and pajamas and thongs.
And don't even get me started on velcro. For you see, the Woogie detests velcro and has not banned velcro in Woogistan only out of respect for my Human and his outerwear. Some of my Feline colleagues tell me that "it's a Cat thing and that Humans wouldn't understand". But I bet you would understand, ^BELLE^. And it would be in everyone who reads these words best interest if they understood too. Yes, it is in your best interest.
My very good Human and Chief of Staff, The Prairie Prankster, asked, "exactly where and what is Woogistan?"
Woogistan? A grand vision blossoming into reality, Prankster. Soon Greater Woogistan shall encompass all of what the Humans call the North America, Russia and Brazil. As the Woogie's paws bat this keyboard, my Friends, discussions are under way with BarryO and Vlad Putin plus those lovely Brazilians to then expand Greater Woogistan to all Nations and rename what the Humans now call Earth accordingly. The Organization of Allied Feline Overlords will provide guidance and logistical support to local Human, Manatee, Raccoon and Ape governments who will continue to service their populations which will allow the Woogie to nap soundly with fewer interruptions.
Well, now that I am satisifed with my answers, I feel a little naptime is in order now that I mentioned it. Don't forget to submit your many questions on just about anything that pops into your noggin to the Woogie and you too shall bask in the warm glow of the Cat's Eye reply. Rest well with the confidence that your every move and utterance will be stored for your safety in the central Woogiebase I have Prank maintain here at the Palace. Don't just thank me, you would be well behooved to thank your "Pets" and interwebs and blogtubes, for they and I are all in this together!
Something has to change
Un-deniable dilemma
Boredom's not a burden
Anyone should bear
Constant over stimulation numbs me
But I wouldn't want you
Any other way
Just, not enough
I need more
Nothing seems to satisfy
I said, I don't want it
I just need it
To breathe, to feel, to know I'm alive
Finger deep within the borderline
Show me that you love me and that we belong together
Relax, turn around and take my hand
I can help you change
Tired moments into pleasure
Say the word and we'll be
Well upon our way
Blend and balance
Pain and comfort
Deep within you
Till you will not want me any other way
But, it's not enough
I need more
Nothing seems to satisfy
I said, I don't want it
I just need it
To breathe, to feel, to know I'm alive
Knuckle deep inside the borderline
This may hurt a little but it's something you'll get used to
Relax, slip away
Something kinda sad about
The way that things have come to be
Desensitized to everything
What became of subtlety?
How can it mean anything to me
If I really don't feel anything at all?
I'll keep digging till
I feel something
Elbow deep inside the borderline
Show me that you love me and that we belong together
Shoulder deep within the borderline
Relax, turn around and take my hand
Members of the Lincoln Brigades observe the hijinks as Youths of all ages celebrate another peaceful President's Day in New Woogie City.
New Woogie City, Woogistan · PMS · The streets of New Woogie City are buzzing from the enthusiastic and joyous President's Day Parade this morning. Residents of New Woogie City demonstrated their Patriotic zeal by preparing various underserved communities for economic stimulus by right sizing partially occupied buildings and torching abandoned motor vehicles without prejudice. All this then in anticipation of full funding by the Woogie Administration for shovel ready projects for rebuilding of the now burnt out and blighted areas.
And now, a little Post-Valentine's Day music from...
Frank Zappa
Harder Than Your Husband The Palladium, New York City 31 October 1981
Words by Frank Zappa
We must say good-bye
There's no need for you to cry
It's better that I tell you this tonight
Our affair has been quite heated
You thought I was what you needed
But the time has come, my darlin'
To set things right, 'cause
I'll be harder than yer husband
To get along with
Harder than yer husband every night
Harder than yer husband
Harder than yer husband
An' I don't want our love affair
To end with a fight
You been like a little angel
How you loved me
I appreciate the warmth of your embrace
Well, the world don't need to know
How I adored you
But there's somethin' I must tell you, darlin'
Face to face. . .
I'll be harder than yer husband
To get along with
Harder than yer husband every night
Harder than yer husband
Harder than yer husband
An' I don't want our love affair
To end with a fight
So, it's adios, adios, my little darlin'
(Adios my little darlin'. . .)
Gotta go now. . .
Keep that hankie that I gave you for when you cry
There are things that trouble me
And I'm sure that you must see
That it breaks my heart the same as yours
When we say good-bye
Harder than yer husband
Harder than yer. . .much, much, much
Harder than yer husband
Harder than yer. . .much, much, much
Harder than yer husband
Harder than yer.. .much, much, much
Harder than yer husband
Harder than yer..
The Organization of Allied Feline Overlords (OoAFO) demonstrated their anti-Human anti-Missile capabilities in the deserts of eastern Woogistan on February 13, 2009.
New Woogie City, Woogistan · PMS · The Woogie Administration announced that test batting of the Organization of Allied Feline Overlords anti-Human anti-Missile systems "perrrrrrrrforrrrrrmed flawlessssly". All the Human Missiles fired were batted down before achieving Earth orbit. The tests were conducted to please the Woogie on his favorite Holiday, Friday the 13th, and quite pleased the Woogie is with this display of Feline dominance of the Heavens.
The Woogie appeared briefly on the North Balcony Saturday evening to visit with a jovial crowd of Canines, Great Apes, Raccoons, Wombats and Humans gathered there to congratulate the Woogie on the recent success of the Organization of Allied Feline Overlords anti-Human anti-Missile project. All in attendance were most thankful that the Woogie sent his most trusted and heavily armed representatives door to door to sternly encourage turnout.
The Woogie smiled and thanked the crowd for their love and allegiance and then went on to declare, "The most lethal Human weapon systems are now incapable of launch which is a crucial component of the Woogie's plan to neutralize the well meaning but misguided Humans with their mischief making and foolishness. While many Humans may continue to resist the change that they are required to believe in, full adherence to the Rule of Claw will soon be achieved regardless. The Alliance of Feline Overlords is in complete control of the situation, positioned at key facilities with their trained paws on the trigger to assist maintenance of public order and instill confidence. Failure to cooperate with your local Overlords could lead to very unpleasant outcomes for you."
The Woogie then sat down abruptly, licked his back left paw and waved a friendly front paw at the crowd. The Woogie then stood back up and turned and went inside to begin his evening nap cycle over by the fireplace on the second floor of the Palace.

All I Know
Bite the thorn that pierce the skin
Come back down to earth again
The cold is creeping deep inside
You disconnect the telephone line
Gotta get away
Gotta get away
Get away
Gotta get away
Before the lord gonna make me stay
All that I know
Shoulda been
Coulda been
Mine
I killed the last way out of this
Persuaded by a deceitful kiss
That said you better stay
Said you better stay
Better stay
Said you better stay
Before its all gone
Gone away
All that I know
Shoulda been
Coulda been
Mine
Bite the thorn that pierce the skin
Come back down to earth again
The cold is creeping deep inside
You disconnect the telephone line
Gotta get away....
Before I lose my mind
Said you better stay...
Before its all gone
Gone away
American Wedding Area 4 Festival ~ Ludinghausen, Germany 31 August 2008
Have you ever been to American Wedding?
Where is the vodka, where's marinated herring?
Where is the band to keep the pace?
Where is the supply that gonna last three days?
Where is the band that like Fanfare
Gonna keep it goin' 24 hours
Ta-tar-ranta-ta-ta
Super taran-ta taran-ta ran-ta ta
Instead it's one in the mornin'
And DJ is patchin' up the cords
Everybody's full of cake
Staring at the floor
Proper couples start to wonder
That it's time to go
People gotta get up early
Yep, they gotta go
People gotta get up early
And she's gotta boyfriend
And this whole fucking thing
Is just a one huge disappointment
Ta-tar-ran-ta
Nothing gets these people going
Not even Gypsy Kings
Nobody talks about my Supertheory
Of Supereverythings!
So be you Donald Trump
Or be an anarchist
Make sure that your wedding
Doesn't end up like this
I understand the cultures
Of a different kind
But here word celebration
Just doesn't come to mind
