Margaret Grey-Bio

Born in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania sometime in the late fourties, Margaret Grey migrated west in the mid-sixties to California. Her plans included an acting career, an immersion in the Hollyood culture and marriage to someone connected, monied and fun. Margaret achived all three, working the birth of a son into the mix. In the late sixties, after appearing for a season on the forgettable “Chop House”she claims she auditioned for and lost the part of ‘Audra’ on “the Big Valley” to Linda Evans, whom she says “sucked up…and I do mean sucked.” Margaret partied what was left of the sixties away, meeting important people and making important friends before meeting Frank Grey, a real estate speculator and sometime TV and film producer. Going to work as Frank’s executive assistant,  Margaret recalls, much of her time was spent playing games of leap frog with Frank after hours…she sans panties. Marriage to Frank followed soon after and in the years to come Margaret found she had the liesure time to pursue a new career in writing and the hob-nob of high society. albeit in Margaret’s hands hob-nob became a bizarre series of events like doing Broadway show steps at parties, singing new lyrics to a song she claimed she wrote, “In The Ghetto” and slapping her son Jason Jay Delmonico involuntarily after wincing through a Dakota Fanning performance. Margaret in recent years has spent more and more time caring for her husband Frank who as the result of a syphilitic condition, is “gender confused” referring to men with the female pronoun and women with the male. And she writes her nationally syndicated column “A Little Bird Told Me” for the Dicklin Syndicate, owned by her “dear friend” Contessa Dicklin. Career highlights include getting a gun into the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake because of her fear of rape by a Greek and butting in line ahead of a group of blind children so she could ride up front on the 6 flags roller-coaster Colossus.

Last night, I ate an oyster that tasted like….

….what I imagine shit to taste like. Now, I’m an oyster fan from way back.  Anyone that knows about Lee and Rick’s in Orlando, especially back in the day knows what I’m talking about. Buckets of oysters, steamed or not, beer, cocktail sauce, butter. You could plow through a few dozen buckets with help in a jiffy. And I am thrilled to know they are still in business. But last night, I was no where near Lee and Ricks. I was in California, miles and years from those great days. I had a dozen oysters on ice, nothing special, but I thought what the hell. They were okay, kinda scrawny but then I get to oyster number four.

Bad Oyster Cult

Rotten. Almost swallowed it. I can still taste it. Okay….you may now start making your jokes….

Show Log for Friday, June 25, 2010

Friday night we had Steve Bosell, a construction contractor from Corona, Ca., who is suing his church, Corona Christ, for ordering him not to continue showing a YouTube video he made with his kids. In it, he pretends he’s throwing a puppy off a cliff to “satirize” the marines that did the same thing in Iraq. When he showed the clip as part of a comedy act he does for his church festival, no one laughed and his pastor told him not to come back ‘for the dinner show.” Steve is suing for damages because “them not laughing makes it look like Christians can’t have any fun.” Later, Bud and Robert perform in another episode of “Ironswine.” In this one, Bud, as Ironswine, pretends to be a Jew in Holland to try and trap anti-semitic people. He stands around singing “If I Were A Rich Manuntil he gets hassled by Robert, playing an anti-semitic Dutchman, and arrests the culprit….In the final hour, Margaret popped on to say that a woman arrested in Salt Lake for plastering fliers depicting a 13 year old girl in a local school as having had bestial sex did a bad thing but lets put this in context. What if the woman was trying to ward off this kid and her mother from “tag-teaming her son.” Margaret claimed it happened to her when a 13 year old and her mom were hitting on Jason Jay Delmonico
