Bob Merlin: I'm upbeat and offbeat, I see things from a very different point of view. I blame this warpage on my teens. While most kids my age were listening to Elvis, I was listening to Stan Freeburg, Mickey Katz(a borscht belt comic), Lenny Bruce and of course, his royal hipness, Lord Buckley. Buckley once lived across from a dump filled with old mattresses. Rather than PM(piss & moan)about it he dubbed it his mattress farm. He made the ordinary surreal. He was an inspiration to Robin Williams, Jonathan Winters, and many, many others. Mine also. He single handedly paved the way for all the comedians of today. He kept court and everyone around was a prince, count, or some other royal title. He died in 1960 My current source of warpage is the Rev. Billy C. Wirtz. Anybody that can get Elvis, Barney, and "Its a Small World" into one song is OK in my book. His best CD is called Pianist Envy. Between the tracks is a running tale about Roberta, wife number 3. Find it, buy it and get some super glue; cause you'll laugh your ass off. I’ve always done crosswords and in addition to keeping the “little gray cells” active they force you to look for alternative meanings and perspectives.
