I’m back in Ohio for this article and it seems that this month is the North Coast Voice Magazine’s Decennial, that’s the official word for ten year anniversary, no really!  Hmm… they call it an anniversary, and not a birthday, both words have similar meanings I guess.

I suppose though it would be better to think of the beginning of the Voice Magazine as a m-m-m-marriage between authors and readers, rather than the thought of spreading your legs then shooting out a really slimy gooey thing that could become president or a professor someday… or maybe a crazy writer!

I have only been sending you, my precious readers, into the deep cavernous mind of Snarp Farkle since December of 2007.  It’s not my fault that you were deprived for seven years of the wit and wisdom that you’ve come to know and love, Snarp Farkle has been in existence since the mid 1990’s.

Only “Sage Satori” and “Jimmy-the-Geek” had the balls to invite Snarp Farkle to amuse and entertain you!  You should thank them… or beat them up, depends on how you rate my articles on the ‘Offensive Meter’!

I don’t mean to offend anybody… it’s sure to happen though.  I left quite a few people scratching their heads in Iowa, wondering what had just happened to them!  Who was that guy?  Who or what is Snarp Farkle?

Well if you remove all the other ingredients from a bowl of ‘Alphabetical Soup’ except for the macaroni letters and broth, stir the letters real fast into a spin, you will find words forming that can best describe me.

ADHD, WEIRD, OCD, STRANGE, STUPIGENCE, and let’s not forget DEMENTIALLY DEMENTED just to name a few!

Now I never claimed to be n-n-n-normal.  In fact n-n-n-normal people make me n-n-n-nervous.  They’re always trying to put labels on us… not so normal types, and pretend to be friendly while sneaking about to see what brand or color of underwear we’re wearing!

Don’t take my word for it go ahead and Google search “what color of underwear” and you will get over 10,800,000 results! Sheesh and they call us the nut bags!

Voice readers have a certain quality about them that sets them apart from the rest of the typical earthling inhabitants I think.  I mean you DO read my articles, and that in itself demonstrates a higher intelligence!

But the Voice Magazine is an entertainment magazine after all, and it has been the home to quite a few appealing articles from some pretty talented writers covering all styles of music and musicians both mainstream and local.

You’re kept well informed on anything you’d want to know about Lake Erie the nations North Coast, all about wines and wineries, plays, movies, pub entertainment, blues, jazz, country, rock-n-roll, rockabilly,  physchobilly, comedy, restaurants and food!

You even get recipes, a crossword puzzle, tips on killing yourself with yoga, tips on how to live “Greener”, and of course… “From The Deep Cavernous Mind Of Snarp Farkle”!  What more do you need?

So yes, I am proud to be a part of such a fine collection of talented writers and I love the Voice Magazine… NOW HOW ABOUT A DAMN RAISE!  Heh-Heh-Heh!
