On this page, I'll post some jottings and put up some MP3 files of bits from the  Citizen Kafka Radio Show (may contain frank language) of the 1980's and beyond.


    Today this page is brought to you by EZpants. Get in the fast lane to exquisite comfort with EZ pants from the makers of Ballon Seat Briefs Those in the know look for the sign that says : "EZ pants only".

    As I sit here jacked on a venti crakaccino, I think of the night my Uncle Emery went berserk and we found him flailing, making tomato sauce angels on the kitchen table. This was the same uncle who lost his fortune in the toy business by manufacturing  anatomically correct limberjacks  and was later instrumental in developing Jihad Barbie.

     What word sounds less like its meaning than "salubrious"?

Oct. 1: grab a courtesy mitzvah tank at any of five midtown locations, head for high holy hijinks at the Lubovitch Passover powwow, and get a one dollar cash rebate. Avenue Y and the desert in Boro beach.

SECRET LIFE OF AVENUES

Madison Avenue
is of no use to anyone at all
Columbus Avenue believes it’s making great progress in its traditional Freudian psychotherapy.
Tenth Avenue still plays the trombone.
Park Avenue is simply appalled at First Avenue who, though a retiree with a comfortable pension, will occasionally on late winter nights, go through Second Avenue’s garbage.
Lexington Avenue no longer fits into her Capri pants.
It’s not widely known, but Eighth Avenue would have done prison time if Seventh Avenue hadn’t borrowed bail money from the dowager buildings on upper Broadway. The Ansonia in particular delighted in making her squirm as she asked.




IF ELVIS

I’m glad Elvis died fore his brain pan got fried
and exuded that old person smell
fore he lost his guitar
and the keys to his car
and the lyrics to Heartbreak Hotel
it seems to me that the King would agree
if he and the boys were still here
he’d rather the drugs than a weird Vegas rug
and a collagen reinforced sneer.
