       Ten years ago I had a run-in with someone smoking in a store. Then I went to see Pinataland. Shana was there too. Then I was pedantic and showed that "Good fences make good neighbors" was not the lesson Robert Frost was trying to teach.

      Just got the recent rerecordings of Connie Converse piano songs and was pleased to discover it was recorded in Brooklyn with Pinataland's recording maestro, Ross Bonadonna! Good job, Ross!

       Five years ago on Valentine's Day I wrote about seeing Pinataland the night before. Then I recycled my Valentine's Day Top Ten List. tags: Douglas Maxwell Stone

    For some reason, Edmund Hillary did not want his photograph taken when he reached the top of Everest with Tenzing Norgay: "I motioned to Hillary that I would now take his picture. He shook his head; he did not want it."

    "Six Ways Mitt Romney and Barack Obama are Connected"

    Part Six: "The Spacious River"

    The name Romney comes from Kent, England and means "spacious river". The name most likely refers to the River Medway, which flows not far from the Englis...h town of Wokingham. In 1996, Wokingham was the location of a bachelor party where a stripper arrived dressed as a St. Trinian's schoolgirl. As she began to take her clothes off, one guest politely excused himself and walked out into the night. His name? Barack Obama. Meer weergeven

    "Six Ways Mitt Romney and Barack Obama are Connected"

    Number 5: "Dogs"

    In 2009, Barack Obama chose a Portuguese Water Dog named Amigo's New Hope to live in the White House and changed the dog's name to Bo. Portuguese Water Dogs first live...d with the Berber people of Morocco in the 3rd century. Linguists say that a study of Irish and other Celtic languages show that the Berbers may have landed in Ireland long before the Celts, most likely bringing their Portuguese Water Dogs with them. By the 1500s, another dog romped through Ireland, the Irish Setter. In the early 1980s, an Irish Setter came to live with a family in Massachusetts. The dog's name was Seamus, and the family's name was Romney. Meer weergeven

    Number four: "The Dee Snider Factor"

    Mitt Romney's running mate Paul Ryan loves heavy metal. In August of 2012, Twisted Sister lead singer Dee Snider complained that his song "We're Not Gonna Take It" was being played to audiences at Paul Ryan's rallies without Dee's permission. The word for "twisted" in Swahili is "Obama".

    "Six Ways Mitt Romney and Barack Obama are Connected"

    Part 3: "A Fatal Injury"

    Because of their "inner turmoil", Barack Obama's favorite super heroes are Spiderman and Batman. Batman's alter ego Bruce Wayne was the son of a wealthy indust...rialist who grew up to be a secretive multimillionaire. In comics and two films, Batman battles a super villain born into poverty named Bane, whose name means "fatal injury or ruin". In 1984, Bill Bain started Bain Capital, a financial services company. Bain Capital's first employee was the son of a wealthy industrialist who grew to be a secretive multimillionaire named Mitt Romney. Romney's archenemy is, of course, Barack Obama. Meer weergeven

    "Six Ways Mitt Romney and Barack Obama are Connected"

    Part Two: "Fisticuffs on an Airplane"

    In 2006 in Vancouver, in the first class cabin of an airplane, Mitt Romney was sitting behind the rapper Sky Blu, of the techno duo LMFAO, which stands for "Laughing My Freaking Ass Off". When Mr. Blu leaned his seat back prior to takeoff, Mr. Romney complained and grabbed the rapper's shoulder. Mr. Blu r...esponded by smacking Mr. Romney in the forehead, and was soon escorted off the plane by Canadian police. Sky Blu is the grandson of Berry Gordy Junior, the founder of Motown Records. In 1961, Berry Gordy Jr. signed Little Stevie Wonder to Motown, and in 2009, Stevie Wonder performed at the White House for President Barack Obama. As a side note, a video with clips of Barack Obama edited together making him appear to sing the LFMAO song "Sexy and I Know It" currently has 18 million 594 thousand 425 views on youtube.

    Six Ways Mitt Romney and Barack Obama are Connected

    Part one: "Baptism"

    In 1837, Mormon missionaries journeyed to Preston, England and converted Mitt Romney's ancestor Miles Romney to Mormonism. Miles then journeyed to Nauvoo, Illinois, where he helped build a Mormon temple. It was the first temple that performed baptisms-by-proxy, a ritual intended to offer the deceased a place in heaven. In 2008, Stanley Anne Dunham - who died of cancer in 1995 - was given a baptism-by-proxy at a Mormon temple in Provo, Utah. Stanley Anne Dunham was Barack Obama's mother.

    Beginning at midnight tonight, look here for the first of a six-part, strange-but-true history series, "Six Ways Mitt Romney and Barack Obama Are Connected", appearing for six midnights through the election.

    For our friends still in the cold and dark, I can only offer this song in melancholy solidarity.
