Ask a donkey in a leather jacket

Dear Don,


A few days ago my sister and I got into a fight. We have a good relationship but secretly she's always been jealous of my good looks. I'm a blonde and she's a brunette. Guys fall all over themselves for me, while she's always had trouble getting a date.


So yesterday I'm going through her room looking to borrow one of her cute tops when suddenly I spied her iPod. It only seemed natural that I should borrow that as well since mine has been broken for a couple months. There was a lot of good stuff on there, but there was also, get this, Genesis.


Then when I was nice enough to confront her, she got all defensive and demanded to know why I was in her room in the first place. Should I stage an intervention? Please help me figure out how to get to her before she slides any further down that dark path.


Sincerely,
Clueless, in Grand Rapids


Dear Hater,

Don't be frontin' honey. Genesis had it's good points. Well, point. One good song really. Point is, your sister is experimenting right now. Music is a way of expressing one's individuality, by identifying yourselves with others. Take for instance, myself. Some might think it inappropriate for a donkey to wear a leather jacket, but I block them out. To me, my leather jacket is what sets me apart from your common run of the mill burro.

I think you should look deep into your heart and realize that you're just being a bitch.

Sincerely,
Don the Donkey

  4. You tell her, Don! Genesis had like two good songs. Good thing she stopped on G, H would have yeilded Huey Lewis and the News.

  5. Gotta defend Genesis...they had a lot of great songs that I still rock to...to hell with the non-believers. And the leather jacket does set you apart.

  7. Ahh, memories. Next to my pink ice ring, a Genesis cassette single was my favorite birthday gift for my 13th.

    This was so funny. And now I'm singing "Land of Confusion". - G
    PS Are you talking about Genesis when Peter Gabriel was the lead singer, cuz that's a whole other ball of awesome.

  9. Georgina, No, for the purposes of this, Phil Collins and no Gabriel.

    Pat, I suppose that might be why some frown upon his decision.

  10. One good song really? Seriously? I saw 'em twice in concert. Granted it was 1985. So I do see your point.

  11. I don't think I am comfortable with a donkey wearing a leather jacket...that is too close to cows wearing the same thing...
    What is next, chickens having eggs for breakfast?

  12. I want to know what Mr. Key (which is what I assume Don's last name is) is staring at. It is on the ground just outside of the picture, and it's driving me mad, not knowing what it is! He just keeps staring. I keep coming back and he hasn't moved. It must be incredibly important. Please help.

    Sincerely,
    Curious, in Wonderland
