    IF YOU DONT NEED ME DONT CALL

    If you don’t need medicine, don’t take any.
    If you don’t want a job, don’t work.
    If you don’t need to eat, don’t consume food.

    That will be $70 please.

    Dear Jojo,
    I can look into the future, too.

    Change your name to something that doesn’t sound like a stripper’s.
    Learn to spell (not that kind, the kind that involves letters in correct places).
    Learn to use punctuation, too.
    Learn to use the shift key.

    If you do these things, we won’t make fun of you in the future (not on this site, anyway).

    I need something done (note spelling), so I’ll charge you $200 for this advice. 8)

        You again!?!

        Perhaps you have a compass malfunction. I’m thinking that this is the L-O-L-A your seek:

        I met her in a club down in old Soho
        where you drink champagne and it tastes just like Cherry Cola
        C-O-L-A Cola.
        She walked up to me and she asked me to dance.
        I asked her her name and in a dark brown voice she said, “Lola”
        L-O-L-A Lola, lo lo lo Lola
        Well, I’m not the world’s most physical guy,
        but when she squeesed me tight she nearly broke my spine
        Oh my Lola, lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo Lola
        Well, I’m not dumb but I can’t understand
        why she walks like a woman and talks like a man
        Oh my Lola, lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo Lola
        Well, we drank champagne and danced all night,
        under electric candlelight,
        she picked me up and sat me on her knee,
        She said, “Little boy won’t you come home with me?”
        Well, I’m not the world’s most passionate guy,
        but when I looked in her eyes,
        I almost fell for my Lola,
        Lo lo lo Lola, lo lo lo Lola
        I pushed her away. I walked to the door.
        I fell to the floor. I got down on my knees.
        I looked at her, and she at me.
        Well that’s the way that I want it to stay.
        I always want it to be that way for my Lola.
        Lo lo lo Lola.
        Girls will be boys, and boys will be girls.
        It’s a mixed up, muddled up, shook up world,
        except for Lola. Lo lo lo Lola. Lo lo lo Lola.
        Well I left home just a week ago,
        and I never ever kissed a woman before,
        Lola smiled and took me by the hand,
        she said, “Little boy, gonna make you a man.”
        Well I’m not the world’s most masculine man,
        but I know what I am and that I’m a man,
        so is Lola.
        Lo lo lo Lola. Lo lo lo Lola.

      Psychics don’t play the lottery, they prefer more of a challenge. That’s why they always have little shops that barely make any money… or sometimes big TV shows that don’t earn them any respect.

        Years ago, I did fund raising (aka telemarketing). We had a list of names and the type of business they were in. There was the occasional psychic listed and I wanted one to answer so I could say “You should know why I am calling. What is your answer?” or something snarky like that. Unfortunately, every single one was a disconnected number. Hmmm….maybe they did know I would be calling and why.

    A cold feeling of dread gripped Jojo’s left kidney as the alarm went off again. It had been going off more often lately, and that could only mean one thing:

    Balk magic was on the rise.

    Jojo grabbed his coat, his psychic amplifimication crystal, and his homeopathetic balk magic absorption rutabaga. It was going to be another long day fighting the forces of drakness.

    He bustled into the main office with his equipment, and the tools he’d need as well, “Bacontini, what do we have?”

    “Dere is de alarm sounding for sector twelve. Dere appears to be a gohst terrorizing de people dere, even de ladies. Dey are calling for you; you want Bacontini to help?”

    Jojo sighed, another gohst. The giant slug-like creatures were popping up all over the city. They would eat just about anything, and were difficult to banish to the drak dimension given their size and the amount of magical balk protection slime they excreted. Jojo knew he’d need a shower and a stiff drink when he got back.

    “No, Bacontini, stay here and work the phones, I can take out a gohst by myself. Just make sure there is a neat scotch waiting for me when I get back.”

    Bacontini looked hurt, “You no want de Bacontini? But he here for you!”

    “Damn it, Bacontini, I don’t have time for your insecurity. We’ll talk about this later!” And with that Jojo was out the door. Bacontini was a nice and able enough secretary, but he was really needy. For all his talk of the ladies, Jojo couldn’t recall that he’d ever seen Bacontini actually with a lady; despite claims that he was married and had some children. Not that it was any of Jojo’s business.

    The vamiper that attacked Jojo as he walked out the front door took him entirely off guard. It was only dumb luck that Jojo’s magical pyschik rubber chicken protective charm absorbed most of the attack. Even so, the blast of balk magical enregie blew Jojo nearly a block down the street.

    Jojo quickly pulled himself back onto his feet and squared himself off against the small abomination. Looking much like a pygmy cross between a platypus and a 1967 Buick Skylark, the evil creature was one of the most dangerous of the balk magical demons.

    Jojo unsheathed his rutabaga as the creature raised a fender and began chanting. It was going to be a long day.

    I was curious to see where this originated, so I googled it. Apparently JoJo has multiple personality disorder. He pops up as MoMo in Hawaii, Anna in Las Vegas, Sabrina in Alaska, and at least one other that got removed while I was searching (Amanda, where are you from?). Each personality promises similar things like reuniting loved ones. MoMo from Hawaii has the best ability of them all – he (she?) “REMOVES ALL BAD LUCK & EVEIL & DORKNAS “. That’s good, because the dorknas that have been harassing me are really driving me bonkers. If MoMo can’t take care of them, I might just have to go all rughspleh on their dwersks and stuff. But it’s ok, because I hear ground dorkna phlersmio has a million and one uses.

      The gator-crested dorknas is one of the most common, yet curiously least studied mammals in the animal kingdom. While sightings are plentiful, they have the unusual ability to be intensely ignored by those around them. They are most often seen during mating season attempting to catch the attention of females who generally want nothing to do with them. They have no mating calls of their own, but have adapted in the wild to co-opt the obsolete mating calls of other erstwhile members of their genus who have since evolved to use more effective calls. Here’s one now:

      Huuuuruh. Hurrrrruh. Hurrrruh hurruh huruh huruh huurrraHEY, your legs must be tired because you’ve been running around my mind all day!

      …and another…

      Hurrrrruh. Hurrrruh hurruh huruh huruh thahara thhHHAT must be jelly, ‘cos jam don’t shake like that!

      It is a curiosity of the animal kingdom that a mammal with such ineffective mating calls still manage to perpetuate the species successfully enough to keep their population levels high. It is generally thought among zoologists that the dorknas spends the beginning of its mature life trying to court females of significantly higher status as a means to improve their genepool. However, as it is rare for most dorknas to succeed, they spend the rest of their life lowering their standards with each successive attempt until they finally manage to find a willing mate of sufficiently low social standing and produce offspring…

      I think he’s just grossly ignorant of what spell check is and does.

      This is the conversation that goes on inside this one person’s head.

      “MoMo? Hey MoMo!? Yo, MoMo!! Would you stop harassing that dorkna and listen!?”

      “Oh, sorry Anna, it’s just this one’s really cute. What do you want?”

      “Me and JoJo is writing up this week’s psycho ad and we was wondering why all them pretty lines show up. Do you know what they mean?”

      “No, but Amanda and me was wondering the same thing last week. I thought maybe my computer was possessed, so I called Sabrina, but because of the time change she didn’t answer. I left a message, but she didn’t get me back in time. I just sent out the possessed message. Maybe that’s why Craig nor none of his internet friends didn’t call any of us.”

      Now you understand of course, since all of these people live in one person’s head and that person can’t even spell “real” or “let me tell” correctly, this conversation took a whole morning. With each person waking up at 9:30 local time except for MoMo, who was still working on the previous night’s ganj, a question asked would bounce around like a racquetball in an empty court until somebody finally answered.

          MF, we have a local forum for our community. In said forum a new business owner, a sole-proprietor and sole-operator business, wrote and asked about business hours.
          She was quite specific that she could not afford additional help. And that she was already running ragged on a 7 day schedule as was.

          About 2/3 of the respondents thought she ought to be open more hours and hire more help. Not one of which meant so ironically–such in utter, abject, and complete misunderstanding of the question.

          Oh, and it’s a resale/repurpose shop, so the number of numbskulls who thought she should “just hire a temp” to go pick up stock were amusing in a make-a-person-stabbity sort of way.

          Apparently, other than we few here, we happy few, the rest of the world in is Thames to the neck convinced the tides revolve around them. Aye, then, let them come forth, for I’d not slaughter any so base.
