BSTF 899 - The "Some Velvet Susans" Show
Feb. 5, 2012, 8:51 a.m.
Yep! Tonight, over and over, is "Some Velvet Morning" -- but it's not my fault! I looked up an old childhood friend who is also named Susan, and later she sent me a ceedee she put together of different versions of that freak Lee Hazlewood's classic bit of unaccountable meter-shifting psychedelic weirdness. (I guess that means she "gets" me!)
The show starts out with a prank call that I made, and therein lies a small explanation. There was an ad on Craigslist calling for volunteers to take a trip to the planet Serpo. I couldn't resist answering it even though it had been taken down within hours of when I discovered it--but I had printed it out, and there was a phone number. (Of course when I called it and spoke to the answering machine, I was recording my end of it--but in my haste and performance anxiety, I forgot to turn the goddamned mike on. DAMMITDAMMITDAMMIT! So I had to recreate the call-since I had basically scripted out what I wanted to say, it was easy. But boy, that misstep pissed me off. And I never heard back from the guy mentioned in the ad, who doubtless was getting pranked by some fuckers he knew.)

Verizon Dodges All Taxes
Feb. 4, 2012, 3:20 p.m.
TAXES, WE DONâT PAY NO STINKIN' TAXES SAYS VERIZON,
AS THE 99% CRIES FOUL!
With
The Tax Dodgers, OWS Occupy the Boardroom, United NY, Make
the Road NY, Strong Economy for All, NY Communities for Change,
Vocal New York, C.W.A., 99% NY, and other members of the 99%
Verizon Communications has been identified as one of the countryâs worst
tax dodgers. Between 2008 - 2010, Verizon actually received $951 million
net in federal tax refunds, our public dollars, making their effective federal
tax rate average to 3% or less. So, an outraged coalition decided to âoccupyâ
Verizon headquarters to call attention to the fact that corporations like Verizon,
GE, Bank of America, and others are not paying their fair share of taxes,
juxtaposed with a time when the minimum wage is too low to permit people to
pay their bills and feed their families. The occupiers came to say corporate
âtax dodgersâ like Verizon, that made over $25 billion in pre-tax US income,
and paid $173 million in compensation to their top five executives, with $56
million going to their CEO alone â and spending $52 million for lobbying was
obscene while at the same time, since 2008 laying off 20,000 employees.
Meanwhile, in the midst of the occupation, a new sports franchise, the âTax
Dodgersâ had the audacity to show up. One of the players, claiming to be
former Verizon CEO Ivan Seidenberg introduced the âTax Dodgers,â who he
explained symbolized the lobbyists and other groups who likely received a
portion of the money that Verizon saved in taxes, while the occupiers cried
foul. Tune in to hear the response of the 99%ers to Verizon and to the Tax
Dodgers, who demonstrated their agility at stealing bases!

John joined us by phone to talk about life without a boss.
