Happy Johnny Appleseed Day! DateTime:9/27/2009 11:20:23 AM Happy Johnny Appleseed Day! John Chapman was among the American settlers who were captivated by the movement west across the continent. As Johnny Appleseed travelled west, he planted apple trees along the way, and sold trees to settlers. With every apple tree that was planted, the legend grew. Huh? What kind of story is that? No bar room brawls or sexy parties? Johnny Appleseed is a real snore, and where'd he get the apple seeds any way? I bet he stole them from the Indians. Jerk. It's also Shamu the Whale Day and Love Note Day. I now submit the following love note to you all.
I am comforted by your sock that I carry into the twilight of dockbeams. I am filled with hope that I may dry your tears of coffee. As my bum falls from my shoe, it reminds me of your drunken pirate. In the quiet, I listen for the last flushing toilet of the day. I wait in the moonlight for your secret Ranger so that we may bite as one, big toe to big toe, in search of the magnificient red and mystical Necromancer of love. Oh lordy. TGIF! Today's birthdays include Linda Hamilton (52), Olivia Newton-John (60), and Brian Ferry [Roxy Music] (63). Until tomorrow...
