Mestee Blogger

I think I'll start things off by answering an inquiry from yesterday, then I'll talk about Cat Stevens. Here's a question from one of the Mestee faithful:

Mr. Mestee,

I've noticed that you like to show off by dropping foreign phrases in the blog such as "je ne sais quoi" and "Vas faire foutre, espece de putain!" What's up with that?
I for one would like to see a little more freedom a little less French.

Dear Patriote Intéressé,

While it is true that I do throw in the occasional French phrase to woo the ladies, I continue to strictly follow Bill O'Reilly's boycott of all things French, since we all know that they are the real enemy. Though most of the "To be boycotted" list is fairly cut and dry, the jury is still out on French's Mustard and intermittent French phrases thrown into blogs in order to woo the ladies, so I have continued using both of those.

Viva la France**

Last month, Ted Kennedy wound up on a Homeland Security "watch list". Spots on this list are usually reserved for suspected terrorists and religious extremists rather than, say, U.S. Senators. Now you can include "popular 70's folk singers" as a demographic on the ol' watch list as well. Read here how Cat Stevens, now Yusuf Islam, was denied entrance into the United States.

When Jack, Hufton, and I worked for RKM Research, they had a contest for the employees to design the new office. We proposed a Cat Stevens motif, even going as far as superimposing pictures of Cat himself posed in front of the RKM building (we actually "won" the contest with our other, more serious entry). I'd post it here if Jacko still has the file on his computer, but I'm afraid the Cat Stevens Project may be lost and gone forever. My, how his beard has filled out nicely since the 70's. I'm out.
