The Time Has Come

For me to put my sewing skills to real use.

Yes, I do believe I have recieved my calling. To make a Russ Feingold sock puppet.

I'm going to have to meditate on this one for the rest of the inspiration. Maybe drop a little peyote, something, anything to try and connect with the insane uncoordinated four year-old energy that is Russ Feingold.

Previously, on The Confidentials, I posted a quote to Russ: Put a Sock In It. Making a Russock isn't the same as putting a sock IN, because the sock itself IS, but my point is made enough.

It won't be anywhere near as cute as the pets.com dog, or Triumph the Insult Comic Dog (see a pattern here?) but if there was ever a Smarmy Eddie Haskell Dog sock puppet...well...

What inspired this?

Stupid quote after stupid quote after stupid quote posted in this JsOnline article. I read this thinking, this can't possibly be real. In any reasonable format, or even 15 years ago, if you'd had any camera time or mic time or whatever public discourse time and said any of this crap, you'd be laughed off stage, told to sit down and shut the f up, or downright told what a dumbsh*t you are. My how times have changed.

Who could do the voice though? I'd get annoyed by merely attempting to sound like him. Why, it would be self-defilation!
