This is a short but shocking DUFU edition today. William Rivers Pitt apparently opened up his Trust Fund checkbook and purchased his way into giving a speech at an Eleanor Roosevelt Awards Dinner held by Denver area Democrats. I could post his overlong boring speech which was my original intention but I just couldn't get over his voice. You can't hear him by clicking the pic above but if you go to TRUTHOUT, just scroll down to the video and click on it.
If you had ever heard Pitt's voice before his throat started getting eaten away by the cancer sticks, you would be as shocked as I am to hear the Pittster's voice. I remember him on the phone from Bukowksi's in early 2005, assuring me that he remembered every single detail of a long conversation that he wrote, word-for-word. Back then his voice sounded smooth and normal. However, years of sucking down those cigarettes, perhaps as many as 3 packs per day, have resulted in the raspy, unhealthy voice you hear on the video.
My advice to Pitt is to quit blowing his Trust Fund bucks to pay for ego enhancing speaking gigs and use the money to pay for medical attention. You need to quit smoking NOW or end up with a hole in your throat like this SINGING COWBOY.
Don't wait, Pitt. Pick up the phone and make an appointment with a doctor. Best to do it now before the ObamaCare waiting lines go into effect.
Wow — he sounds like a really bad Jessie Venture imitator.
At quick glance, it looks like WRP was going for some sort of clerical look there. But the only collars he’s familiar with are found on Bukowski brews...
Wonder what happened to his hair? Did he shave it all off or did it all fall out? He looked like he had a pretty good head of hair in the picture at Crawford.
He certainly does look older than 38. All that hard, liberal living off the floor of Bukowski's ages a man!
Liberals don’t age well; it’s the life of hatred and envy that causes them to look mean and old before their time.

I"m a year older than you and waaaaay older than the Pittster....we both look younger than he does!
He must buy his Virginia Slims by carton.
If he's buying them in Mass., he's paying thru the nose for them....
Probably buying them from overseas....
Wait! Don't you preside over weddings and then attend the receptions afterwards? That would be a perfect time to imbibe.
What’s the cigarette tax like in MA? How much for a carton of cigarettes there on average?
LOL, that’s perfect!
OK, which one is the future Mrs.?
“does he not know about socks?”
He only uses them for puppets.

Point made, Charles. You look 20 years younger than Pitt.
Oh yuk! And no warning either. Thats just wrong!
I accidentally stumbled upon the photo and it was too good not to photoshop.
