In which a group of graying eternal amateurs discuss their passions, interests and obsessions, among them: movies, art, politics, evolutionary biology, taxes, writing, computers, these kids these days, and lousy educations.

Ha, I remember that one. I definitely think it's time for us to be one nation under a groove.

George always was my favorite Clinton - just like my favorite Marx was Groucho.

I have to say though, that I am concerned that Dr. Funkenstein appears to have been left out of the Operations Plan.

Make my funk the P-funk!

I went to some great live PFunk shows back in the 90s. Amazing. They were very inconsistent show to show as GClinton aged, though...I don't think all the drugs helped in the consistency area either.

Bill Kauffman once told a story of a little urban black kid who identified one of the candidates in the 1992 election as "George Clinton". Kauffman went on a riff from there, similar to these.
