Alternative Holiday Gifts: 3 Non-Blondes et. al.

Holiday gifts, holiday lifts. Personally, I think you couldn’t do better than to package my last few articles together, and roast some chestnuts with them. Short of that, I certainly hope that you’ll have the whole family take a break from opening presents a few days from now, and at least pour (eggnog nodding) over the last few photos Scott’s found time to post with my recent pieces.

Countess Condi cutting a rug with the Sundance Kid! D.H. Lawrence in a writing fit wit a fattened-up Frieda! Whadda home of a range. Live dangerously with my Tookie take (12/14). But if you must have cake and give gifts, perhaps you’ll want to consider what’s directly below.

http://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US% 3Aofficial_s&hl=en&q=3+Non+Blondes&btnG=Google+Search is the Google thang for links up the kazoo respecting 3 Non-Blondes. If motivated, you’ll find a way to secure a DVD for an out-there loved one with it. And…if you are from the Mitch Hedberg (comic) side of the tracks you will be motivated. Though those you know loving comedy might very well expect another Larry David trip or Richard Pryor retrospective this time around, if you contact me ASAP I’ll recommend this or that in plenty of time for you to score a perfect tripped-out hit.

Mitch once said: “If you had a friend who was a tightrope walker, and you were walking down a sidewalk, and he fell, that would be completely unacceptable….” I feel the same way about activists tripping over their talk.

If all my outraged compatriots are going to do is march in circles with corny signs, get unhorny at their activist social gatherings, put notches in their politically correct guns, do what’s been done (to death), martyr themselves, and complain without risk, they might as well get the discs I’m recommending and die laughing.

Richard Oxman, rmoxman@yahoo.com, trusts that readers will treat lovers of Jon Stewart pretty much the way in which they relate to Bush supporters. Truly, he’d be honored to recommend a Hedberg or 3 Non-Blondes comedy coup. Recent Oxwriting, incuding his “Tookie Take,” is at www.oxtogrind.org.
