​Over the coming weeks on jplinde.com, I'll be sharing behind-the-scenes stories from the writing of the memoir, photographs and memories from the 1977 Shasta Summer Festival, interviews with former cast members, deleted scenes, and regular updates as One Summer moves toward publication. Every conversation uncovers another piece of the story. Every memory brings One Summer back to life.
​
I hope you'll follow along.

Dancing on the Ceiling

11/14/2020

​“Oh, what a feeling
When we're dancing on the ceiling!”
--Lionel Richie.

As true today as it was in 1986.

I continue to celebrate knowing full well that someone’s not able to indulge in his signature YMCA dance moves. In fact, he is most likely continuing to squirm in his dark hole, muttering to himself much like Gollum.

“They stole it, my precious. They tooks it from me and I needs to back so I don’t go to jail.”

This week was not without its share of stress but it did provide a few hearty laughs. Rudy in front of the Four Seasons…Landscaping provided much needed entertainment as well as the fake news reporting of still more White House Covid Staff infections from another Super Spreader Victory Party in the middle of the night where victory was declared. All of this was topped off on Friday with DJT himself emerging out of the bunker and the sunlight with a fresh crop of white, wispy hair along with a new set of allegations. I can only imagine that he has been spending most of his time with repeated viewings of the Kevin Hart/Will Farrell preparing for prison movie, GET HARD. It is the Christmas season and sometime soon we should see the naughty and who’s nice list of Presidential Pardons. Gee, I wonder who will make the top of the list?

And shooting to #1 with a bullet, the orange ass-wipe, 45 himself!

Meanwhile, William Barr is swinging away like it’s Kent State in 1966, kicking ass and taking down cherished institutions like the Justice Department staying out of investigating free and fair elections. Who needs Russia when you have this Baby Huey of a henchman doing your dirty work? Peaceful Protestors in your way? Not for long, you anarchist dickwads. Let me call out the military and clear that shit out. Meanwhile, Law firms are ditching the presidential cause quicker than rats from the Lusitania. I understand some of them might not even get paid. Gee, that’s a surprise. Maybe they should have thought about that when they accepted a fool for a client.

Then there is that brilliant thinker and historian, Alabama Republican Tommy Tuberville who claimed that World War 2 was waged to fight Socialism. Not to mention his version of the three branches of government.

“You know, the House, the Senate, and the executive.”

Jesus, were these waterheads too busy fucking their cousins to attend 6th grade? I’m not asking for a friend, I asking on behalf of an entire country.

Okay, until next week, I leave with a bit of the happiness we all shared last Saturday. Enjoy!
