Over the weekend, in Hyde Park, I received a flyer from a gentleman of indeterminate age. He was dressed in a garb unfamiliar to me. In his hand, he carried a strange device that, I later learned, recorded his words and deeds for his followers.
When he approached me, I was hesitant. And I tried to hurry myself around him. Yet, something in his eyes arrested me, as I slowed down and extended my hand to receive his flyer. He smiled and said, I have long planned our meeting, here. I nodded my head, as in agreement, though I had no comprehension. I didn’t read the flyer, stuffing it in my pocket, and wiping my fingers on my trousers. The ink left a small stain.
He briskly walked away before another word came out of my mouth. And I continued on to mine home.
I have read the flyer and found it to be an inspired work. I attach it below for my gentle readers. Perhaps I will try and find my new acquaintance, once again.
Scan of the Flyer: side 1 and side 2.

simply outstanding. i know the author meant it as a serious piece of literature, but it’s difficult for me to determine which part contained the most hilarity per paragraph.

Ummm, I don’t think I can handle reading this deep any more. I am blaming it on the Google.

This, on the other hand, is the best thing I have seen in many days. I like the small, grizzled German hearts (presumably lining up at the Tiergarten tomorrow?) but those white seductresses with the cloven bosoms and raspberry-scented hair are straight outta Harlequin.

Have the five percenters issued any statements about Obama? Their entertainment value and their theology are both superior to Maulana Riff…..http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Nation_of_Gods_and_Earths
