*****RANT FROM THAT WEEK:
YOW!! NEW FIRST MEGAFISTEMPLE LODGE BUILDING!!
This week we finished moving into our shiny new Headquarters Building in historic Dallas, Texas!
I built my own ship!
It won't fly; it won't even move. But it has a GREAT heat shield and instrument panel.
The new edifice overlooks the mansion-lined Swiss Avenue area of Lakewood made famous as the 1998 meeting place in THE BOOK OF THE SUBGENIUS, a scant few blocks from the Sacred P.O. Box itself. Just for old times' sake, I frequently leave my "bat cave" office and accompany the guards of the armored trucks on their hourly runs between the office and the P.O., carrying bags of orders and money.
Tonight we celebrated both the Dobbsening (or "launching") of the new building, and Dr. G. Gordon Gordon's BIRTHDAY!!
Happy Birthday, GGG! Death's boney ass SOUNDLY KICK'D for the 158th year going!
And on their way here, Rev. Nickie Deathchick and Rev. Mary Magdalen had the drivers stop at a Pink bar where DJs from some Dallas rock station were on location, trying to get women to do weird things on the air, in return for Aerosmith tickets. Nickie and Mary were so disgusted by the cowardice of the surrounding SMU bitches that they got up there and MADE OUT!! Why the hell not! Just to blow the Pinks' "minds". The awwed and extremely grateful Dallas DJ dumbasses awarded the two Yankee She-Yetinsyny the dumbass Aerosmith tickets and invited them to come RULE THE DUMBASS STATION.
It would only be fitting if Nickie became a highly paid Dallas commercial radio personality in between her dead-and-injured human delivery jobs.
Meanwhile, I "BUILT MY OWN SHIP" -- that is, I took this opportunity to completely rework the capsule that holds my command modules. After many test missions, and the gradual jettisoning of a ton of dross, this one should be a "go" for XX-Day. I've decided that I'm going to haul the entire SubGenius Church Archives with me when I leave. But I have to have EFFICIENT and APPROPRIATE LEVELS OF ACCESS. That's the key. To keep the frequently used tools such as the attitude control jets, the software, the periscope and main parachute NEARBY, while there's no reason things like the infrared sensors, TV cameras and "escape rocket" can't fold up into the storage bay until July.
In the new arrangement, I can swivel in 3D within an inverted cube between the work stations for Audio, Video, Computer, Paper, 'Frop Admixturation, and Sexhurt or Money Changing (depending on the time of day and trajectory). I can see out the portholes, but no one else can see in. I don't have to get up to flip tapes or make coffee; hoses carry the fluids into me from the automated kitchen, and another tube carries liquid and solid waste to the vacuum toilet. I only have to disengage my MoonPants(TM) once a day, to go to the sleep module. After I wake, I stop at the autokitchenette and pick up a supply of food to stow in the overhead bin, reseal the MoonPants(TM) and I'm back in the saddle for another 18 hours!
There's even what I call a special "Bat Closet" wherein is stashed the complete Devival Travel Kit (which springs out on display platforms when the door is opened): the light Cleveland pulpit, the heavy Strange pulpit, my preaching uniforms, the Verticle Hanging Propaganda Banners and Giant Dobbsheads, plus the rear projection videos, Pil Dispensor, devival music CDs and laugh track carts, tripod, multiprong condom supply and video camera.
I have a chain of video dubbing machinery with the VHS array on one end, and a BETAMAX DECK on the other! Between X-Day 98 video dubs, I've been safety-dubbing the old 1980s Church Devival, Music Video and Pornography betamax collections down to VHS. The Betamax player is on a rotating carousel and can easily be swapped out with a slide projector, a kinetoscope, a Super-8/8mm projector, a 16mm Kodak Pageant (you remember those!), a 9.5mm projector just in case, and a ditto type of "mimeograph" machine, the kind your teacher printed tests on, with slick paper and blue ink that smelled funny, like chemicals, if you were a little kid in the 60s.
I have a perfect, brand new, heavy duty heat shield on the office, never used, because this ship has never undergone re-entry. But JUST IN CASE.
Now, if only I could get a cable modem going here, and a robot that flips tapes.
***End of 1999 stuff***
