Big [B]Other HOW LATITUDES BECOME FORMS

February 14, 2003

an organism's happy Valentine !

dear global citizens ,

Some years ago in a strange country in the northern hemisphere known far and wide as " the land of freedom and opportunity" , a rather contrived tradition grew from the lonely winter months for the predominantly male species to find redemption in the excercise of commodity trading and slow market pumping via the sales and distribution of tchotchkes, chocolate , and decapitated floral arrangements...

This year to celebrate and honor Valentine’s Day we offer you an alternative to the Hallmark stock poetry and tenderly shrinkwrapped love...

In a rather oblique , but fragrant juxtaposition given the tensions and ill-fated desires of the first and third worlds today, we are raising funds for a Saddam and Bush 2nd honeymoon , where in the privacy of a cell block on some remote island they may explore each others’ “ weapons of mass destruction” to their hearts ‘ content , unimpeded by UN chaperones and/or opportunists of global capitalism and military industry .

We believe that to take the historical drama and crimes of passion out of the spotlight of distorted mass media spectacle and the grubbing reach of corporate carpet baggers , a true romance can begin from an affair that was ever-so-complicated by OIL family dysfunction and controversies back in the 1980’s.

With nuptial vows renewed and a fresh and uninhibited vigor ... far away from innocent women and children and decent people who can now go about their lives in peace , the son of a Bush can finally be one with his chemically well-endowed and all-in-the-Family man Saddam.

our sincerest wishes,
pod(s)
