Rebecca Wilson's
Top 10 Favorite Sayings
.....I Can Remember Lately and Why

Rebecca Wilson


1. I've been reading Johnny Rotten's autobio No Blacks, No Irish, No Dogs. It's very good except for all of the Nancy Spungen bashing. Sid Vicious chose to be with her. There is a passage when Johnny Rotten's wealthy wife Nora asked Nancy Spungen what she was doing in London: Nancy answered,"Jerking off men for 20 pounds." Ms. Rotten thought Nancy's statement was "offensive." Well, la de da. I guess it was O.K. for Sid to tell her to go make some money!
2. Ben Franklin is always good, here's one, think all that ye speak but speak not all that ye think.
3. We grow too soon old and too late smart. -Yiddish proverb
4. Don't trouble trouble until trouble troubles you.
5. A half truth is a whole lie.
6. Avoid Fuck Ups, anything they have anything to do with turns into a disaster. --
(William Burroughs said that in his Dead City Radio recordings, which are AMAZING!)
7. Coexist.
8. You're lucky to find one true friend in this lifetime. - Mark Twain
9. Any day above ground is a good day. -- KISS Gene Simmons' Mother said that
in a documentary about Gene. His mom is a holocaust survivor.
10. War has no winners. - Ron Posner of MDC told me that recently.

Top Ten Villains of 2008

TIMM CARNEY


1. Bernie Madoff, the man stole $50 Billion unimaginable! He stole from charities! Karma will get him!
2. Sarah Palin, this broad put women's issues back a generation! She doesn't
believe in birth control and look where that got her?
3. Dick Cheney. Enough said!
4. Clark Rockefeller, or whomever he maybe! This guy is amazing, perhaps a German,
perhaps a blue blood, perhaps a kidnapper, perhaps a murderer. I smell a Tom Cruise movie in the making!
5. Rod Blagojevich, if I may paraphrase; he is one stupid mother fucker.
6. Prince Harry, sadly he hasn't learned a thing and proves that good breeding and genes a
racist doesn't make. Tsk Tsk Harry your mother would be ashamed!
7. Every single person who voted yes on Proposition 8!
8. Heather Mills, she has taken greed to a new level. All of her good works have been
overshadowed by her greedy nasty divorce settlement fight.
9. Ann Coulter, will someone shut this bitch up?

Scary Device


The Floydian Device - Top 10 for 2008
The Great And Not-So-Great Of Two-Thousand And Eight!!!!!!!!!

1) Dog, known in China as xiangrou, or “fragrant meat,” was taken off restaurant menus during the Beijing Olympics.
2) What happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay in Vegas!  O.J. finally goes to the big house. No mo’ stripper for Jack the Ripper
. . .  a little advice for everyone’s favorite football-hero/commercial spokesman/murderer: Sell those golf clubs,
careful stretching in the common areas, and get ready for a big role in Naked Gun 3!
3) Hard to believe that almost half the country voted for a ticket with Sarah ‘Nailin’ Palin on it. 
(She really changed since we dated in high school).
4) Mini-me makes a come-back!  A guy shorter than Tommy Lee’s balls made his own sex-tape.
5) After a 17-year wait, "Chinese Democracy" debuts at #3 on Billboard charts,
right behind Taylor Swift’s "Fearless" at #2. The Floydian Device says ‘Fearless’ rocked harder.
6) Alec Baldwin calls his little girl a "pig," then wins support;
and starts a whole new career as the unfairly-treated former spouse of his little pig’s mother .
7) A whole country was led to believe that you could make $10 bucks an hour, buy a half-million dollar house,
watch the value increase forever, borrow as much as you want cause you’re now rich, and never worry again!
8) A Barenaked Lady was arrested for possession of cocaine.
(If you’re doing coke, you have a responsibility to rock a little harder).
9) Mormans keep California gay couples from marrying.  Marriage is still a sacred institution
between a man and his twelve wives.
10) Elisabeth Hasselfuck is still allowed to open her mouth in public.

Ten things in 2008 that made The Device feel nice. .

1) Workin’ for The GLOBE!
2) Upchuck CD release party in Seattle. Dennis White thanks for bringing UPCHUCK BACK TO LIFE! Highlights -
Playing with the White Trash Debutantes, The Fags playing ‘Lock You Up’, and Stone Gossard in drag!
 3) The Device jumped out of a flying device 10,000 feet above the ground..
 4) Drank Patron and rode the elevators all night at the Clift Hotel in San Francisco.
5) Saw Black Rebel Motorcycle Club at The Showcase.
6) Recorded music for a new film by The Fabulous Ms. Ligaya.
7) December art show for I, Braineater (the bastard spawn of Robert Crumb and Andy Warhol)
8) Playing with JP5 opening for The Subhumans
at Chris Walter’s book release party (The Cobalt in Vancouver).
9) Fell in love with a girl. 
10) Watched the United States get a much-needed Brazilian. . . NO MORE BUSH!!!
