FIST!
HAHAHAHA! Good find, Romy la Domina!
Dick – What is the latest on the young’un?
No one walks on me!
It’s about time I got a joke email that wasn’t People of Walmart.
I’m ready to piss myself. I did some side work for a friend of mine, and I thought I was getting paid about $2,200 for it – that’s what I quoted him as my minimum acceptable fee for the job. My initial estimate, though, was $3,300 – and that’s really what I wanted. I gave him the finished project earlier this week. He just called and said that, because of the exceptional quality of the finished product, he was cutting me a check for $7,000.
This has never, ever happened to me, and I so need this. God, I love working for appreciative friends.
Cute!
Dick, what, with your book? Hell, no!

Good on ya!
Thanks, Dick! I’m shaking, my palms are sweating, and I’m nearly ready to break down in relief. I have some very pressing issues to resolve, and this takes a LOT of pressure off me. I pretty much offered to meet him at the office at 5:30 AM to pick up the check. I’m in shock.
I need to line up more of these gigs.
Been having some pretty violent dreams. Lots of shootin; & splodey-stuff.
I blame… Dick!
Thanks, Dick, I enjoyed the book!
Actually?
We have a “Go Away” doormat. For realz.
This is a worthwhile expenditure of the public fisc:

Jazz, that’s wonderful news!
When I started reading your comment I totally thought the story was going the other way.
Postal unions election votes lost in the mail:
Jewstin,
“My only aggravation is his ‘choose’ statement. I tried awful damn hard to choose a wife and 2.3 kids but it don’t work like that.”
I agree, and that’s what is causing such a controversy. In fact, a BYU professor of Biology released a report on the subject to counter the apostle who gave the talk. It’s been a very contentious week here in Utah when it comes to this subject.
“This has never, ever happened to me, and I so need this. God, I love working for appreciative friends.”
Awesome news Jazz!
Jazz – So, I can expect the check for $2500???
This is going to sound strange but I had a dream of Helen Mirren giving me a rough handy the other night.
Jazz you can be my new best friend.
Old but funny (insert MCPO or Chrispy joke here)

Innit, though? When he called, he said, “There’s no way I’m paying you $3,300 for that.” I thought we were gonna fight. What a relief!

Romy – Mr. Chapin dated the beautiful girl who lived next door to us in the late 60′s/early 70′s. . . took her for a hot air balloon ride for one date. It was the 1st time I had seen one in real life!
MCPO, cool! I like his brother Tom’s kids’ songs, too.

Crap, crap, crap! Mr. RFH just called – the “check engine” light came on, and the car won’t go any higher than 2nd gear. BBL.
“I can’t wait to try this”
Do you even know her?
I am in pain. I havent been drinking beer really but I think I need one to take the edge off. What say you?
It’s in limp mode RFH. It could be just about anything.
Did you google Uniball?
I’d like to know how that chic figured out that escalator would do that?
Sohos, tell them to stop finding suspicious spots on you!
Roamy, fingers crossed on the car!
Sohos, I just had dessert before dinner. Beer? Why the hell not?
Hell, it could be something as stupid as low transmission fluid. My money is on a bad sensor. Stupid cars.
Thanks Patty Ann. I just poured one.
I wish I had some. Sadly, I have to drive all over Houston tomorrow and houston traffic and to-kill-ya hangovers don’t mix
Roamy, if by some chance he or you recently bought gas, make sure the gas cap is screwed tightly on.
Sohos do you have a pool?
When I drink Tequila I never wake up with hangovers either. I just wake up drunk.
I’m thinking they got a major fuck up going on.
O2 sensor.
Counts’ Mom has a pool. We don’t. Why?
Ask your Doctor about pools Sohos. I have recently come across a couple of articles linking chlorine to cancer. Nothing I saw was definitive regarding pool water but it would be worth asking him the question.
A quick BING brought up http://www.webmd.com/cancer/news/20100913/study-swimming-pool-chemicals-may-pose-risks?ecd=soc_tw
Could be a johnson rod.
Dammit. Gonna be a long one at work tonight.
Y’all keep the Interwebz company for me.

Sounds expensive.
We just had the transmission worked on, so we brought it back to the shop that did the work and left it. I’m thinking they missed something.
Bwahahaha, I love that website, Dick, especially the blinker fluid.
1999 Dodge Intrepid, 160K miles.
It’s been a good car. We just bought the Accord last year because I was nervous having two 10-year-old cars. I was hoping to get another 3-4 years out of it.
Day two in a stretch of mother fucking pain in my ass, son of a fucking bitch days.
Dodge? Blown cigarette lighter fuse.
Kelly.
Care for a drink? Something stiff?
Starting on the last half of the bottle of wine. Didn’t even bother w/ the fucking glass. Nothing stiffer in the house.
I have a 01 with 80k. I drive 2 or 3 miles a day at the most. I am a Hermit.
Who’s ready for an ass kicking?
Well, Cash for Clunkers jacked up the cost of a used car, and I can’t afford a car payment right now. But I’m looking.
It’s probably the flux capacitor.
Girl… You and I need to have a chat.
I have expensive taste when it comes to the hard stuff, and a limited budget. The bottle of Templeton Rye Whiskey is empty.
I have driven 2 million miles, easy. Just not in the last 10 years.
The women always get the new car. It is man law #5.
*puts on a football helmet and grabs a bat because I like to mix sports metaphors when kicking asses
Vmax, between work, school, and kids’ activities, I easily put 300 miles a week on my car. My one-year-old car now has 17K on it, after the TX meatup.

Is it a whole year or just part of one?
Why won’t my legs move?
My vehicle has 95,000 miles on it and I am at car payment #25 of 84.
If it goes for another 225,000 miles I will be fine.
I kept the older car for a while because it didn’t have an airbag and I could keep the baby in the front seat.
My vehicle has 95,000 miles on it and I am at car payment #25 of 84.
The party van?
living in the boondocks I put a lot of miles on. My almost 3 year old truck has about 65k on it
For the first time in about 9 years, I don’t have a car payment.
4 vehicles.
That’s how I kick asses.
Yep. It’s a Mercedes diesel so I have a good shot at it. I have seen some on eBay with 500,000 miles that are still going.

PS. I used to also own a swimming pool. But I moved. I don’t miss it not one fucking bit.

What happened to steak-and-bj night?
Is that real?
That is fantasy Fest stuff!
Speaking of elections, though, I gotta tell Andy that my trip to Boston slipped a week, so I won’t be out there on election night.
Which means I need to find an election night party in Colorado.
You kill the vermin.
Romy, just keep showing us your bewbs online, and this will not be a problem.
PG, Mr. TiFW is just like you and Dave; just turned 50, 4 cars (used to be 5, but DD#1 just separated from the Mothership after college graduation), etc., etc. We just purchased a brand new Honda Odyssey and gave the old one to DD#2 to take to college. The other cars are all over 10 years old.
Which means I need to find an election night party in Colorado.
Try to find one which is mostly your liberal friends in Denver.
Then you can laugh and laugh and laugh . . .
I like having a swimming pool.
The sound of the water relaxes me.

Right now, my Polaris is seeking out and sucking up dead worms on the bottom of my pool.
We’re having this neighborhood association party at our house tomorrow, so I figured I should clean up the dead worms.
Dick has the ‘Bruce Willis’ thing down.
Romy, just keep showing us your bewbs online, and this will not be a problem.
Does not compute.
I’m sorry to have to inform you that I did not die in a fiery crash on the way home from Cyn’s.

“Right now, my Polaris is seeking out and sucking up dead worms on the bottom of my pool.”
Ummm. Nevermind.
Good evening, mysterious strangers.
Thank you Scott. I will look into that. I do take 2000mg of Vitamin D per day. The deficiency is what they say caused my tibia and fibula to snap the way they did.

XBrad, glad you made it home.

I got this image of my bewb pic being used to scare off mice.
Hawaiian shirts are not fucked up, they’re awesome.
I must have a dozen of em.
Silk ones are teh best.
Silk Hawaiian shirts?
Debauched hedonist.
Tommy Bahama shirts are expensive!
But I have 3.
I got this image of my bewb pic being used to scare off mice.
That’s . . . not the image I had. Not even close.
Roamy, I wasn’t in the door 3 seconds before mom started bitching about something. I’m tempted to hop right back in the car and show up on Cyn’s doorstep.
The deficiency is what they say caused my tibia and fibula to snap the way they did.
I say it was the gravitational stress caused by the fact that you are somewhat . . . erm . . . top-heavy in the forward chesticle region.
You can present me with medical evidence to the contrary, if you wish, but it won’t change my opinion.
I only have one Hawaiian shirt, and it’s a bit more subdued than the one Dick was wearing. Just blue and white.
top-heavy in the forward chesticle region.
true dat
>> mom started bitching about something.
awwwww.. she missed you.
Or I could show up on Dave’s doorstep. That’s a pretty valid option.
Though I suspect he won’t make the bacon just the way I like.
Hawaiian shirts should be:
a) silk
b) gaudy
c) floral
d) bright colors
e) one size too large, and
f) never tucked in
I need a Hawaiian shirt before the next meatup.
Hawaiian silk shirts are for losers.
Genuine Malaysian batik is what the cool kids wear.
Why do I have a feeling that Dave and Cyn are both shutting their blinds, turning off their lights and turning the volume down on their teevees?
Here you are Dave

Piffle! African batik is the really quality stuff.
$138 for a Hawaiian shirt? No way!
$138 for a Hawaiian shirt? No way!
I won’t pay that much for a damned good pair of waterproof hiking boots that I wear damned near everyday.
If I ever manage to make a meatup, I’ll buy a HI shirt (mostly for the inside joke)
Actually, I like Hawaiian silk shirts.
But, we bought some batik fabric in Malaysia from the shop in a slum where it was made. It’s an interesting process, involving wood fires and multiple dyes controlled by wax to create elaborate patterns. It’s really a rather unique art form. Cathy made me a couple of shirts from this stuff.
They have some bargains at $110 RFH!
I am kidding!
No Tommy Bahama for me.
I bought my first batik in Senegal in 1973.

I was told there would be no cultural anthropology.
I don’t buy cotton to keep it around for a decade.
I buy silk because of the way it kisses my chest.
Hey Car in. We’re talking about gay people’s shirts this evening.
I used to wear a crappy Costco Hawaiin shirt to meatups, but since Cathy sent me an Official “The Hostages” shirt, I wear that instead.
I bought my first batik in Senegal in 1973.
What the fuck were you doing is Senegal in 1973? Do we really need to project U.S. naval power to Senegal?
The Navy was wasting my tax dollars, that’s what.
Vmax, yeah.
There’s another fabric, I can’t recall what it is cause I never heard of it before, that white shirt I wore on Saturday is made of it… pretty soft too. A little more durable than silk, and if you fall into the ocean with it on, you give the chicks a nipple shot.

You looked good in that shirt the other night.

Linen?
no, but it’s like linen (linen is from flax, right?)
I think it starts with a T. I can’t check cause that shirt is at the dry cleaners right now.
Linen is a plant-based fabric, like cotton, and has the advantage of being very cool, even more so than cotton. It’s made from flax
>> I was neutered in ’92
Now there’s a coincidence.
Except my doc let me keep my balls, it was just a big V
Brad was local?
Dave, the only thing I can think of would be tencel.
Michael – 1) Am I to believe you were actually paying taxes back then?
2) Ever heard of a thing we in the service call, “Authorized Leave”?
or 3) I’m not disposed to discuss those matters.
Scott, I livestreamed last night’s AZ meatup. Michael was trying to look at Mrs. Peel’s and Cyn’s bewbs, but ended up seeing my shirt.
I used to submit ink on linen plats to the county.
Back when I was a Draftsman, drawing with ink and jewel pens. $100 each and I had 14 pens.
seriously why does my avatard say some shit about tittyface jenkins etc
I think the shirt DiT prefers is “Taffeta”! That’s my guess, and I’m sticken’ to it!
Hahahahaha, not taffeta. That’s what I made my wedding dress out of.
Ruby tipped pens wore out. Sapphire or Diamond tips did not wear out. Ruby’s maybe.
Chrispy, that was my first guess, but it’s not so chest-kissy. It’s better for ultimate rustle.
Dick, you really did miss out. The camera really was on the wimmens most of the time.

Bingo.
Tats & Roamy, I was being nasty, not serious…

Oh, I have no doubts that Dave’s got a whole taffeta ballgown w/ attendant handbag and gloves. I just don’t think is HI shirt is taffeta.

Mine is an 8yo maine coon. He loses about 2/3 of his volume.
I used to have a Maine Coon cat! His name was Tommy and he had a long-jutting square cat snout, just like a lion. He was HUGE. Biggest cat I have ever seen. About a foot tall at the shoulder, a giant.
I didn’t want him, but one of my tenants in Hartford was dying of cancer, and had to leave him behind to go to low income housing. She made me promise to take care of him.
He was already a very old cat, but he would play with you if you teased him. And you could physically stand playing with him only if you wore seven layers of thick socks on your hands, because his paws were the size of saucers and all his claws were an inch long…
Ow.

Hey, Dick! Did you see I won’t be at the hospital on Monday?
When I left my former fiance, I ran off to stay with my sister’s family a few days and couldn’t take my cats with me so soon. Didn’t matter, he packed them up and had them put down right away.
Tommy and Kitty, ah the poor things.
LauraW – He sounds like a right bastard!
they put down your former fiance?
wow. You’re strict.
Sorry, Laura, but I’m glad you didn’t marry that asshole. Then I wouldn’t have Scott.
did I get that wrong?
Heh, tell the right people on this blog who he is, and he’ll get put down, just to make Lauraw happy.
“he packed them up and had them put down right away.”
That son of bitching, vindictive, asshole, prick.
Glad you made the wise decision to leave him, Laura. Plus, Scott is obviously 10,000 times better (minimum).
(But I mean that in a nice way.)
No, he was a decent sort, he was just kind of out of his frickin’ mind at that moment.
He changed the locks, then changed them back in a fit of remorse. I used the opportunity to put my engagement diamond back in his safe. A few months later he asked me where it was and what I would do with it. When I told him that it was in our house the whole time he just about shat his pants. But quietly, so that I wouldn’t know he was celebrating inside his head (he thought).
He came from a very poor family in Bumfuck, NH. They didn’t have running hot water in his house until a couple years after he moved out (emancipated) at 16 y/o.
He had already had a pretty rough life and this was just another patch of hurdles and choices for him. He really was a good person, but just a cut-and-dry, tough kind of survival-minded man. Not gonna trifle with cats while the little woman makes up her mind what she’s going to do. I do not blame him, I was pretty effed up then too.
that’s the great thing about being at peace.
being at peace.
Yeah, I’m at pea….
OK: I am still pissed off that he actually fucking tried to keep all my grandmother’s furniture and chandeliers. My mom had to ask him for that back.
I am still pissed off that he kept my grandfather’s grape crusher and press for making wine, and all the winemaking equipment that I bought. He told my mother that the press was no good anymore. It was clean and worked fine while I lived there! He just knew that really nice small presses like that are expensive and didn’t want to give it up.
Also, he fucked me on settling up on the house we bought together.
OK, I’m through.
see?
peace.
Better at peace than in pieces.

Anyone have any profound thoughts tonight?

Hey, Eddie, did you watch the video in the last poat?
Sean:
Yeah, I saw it. Pretty good.
I have just been busier than a 30cent whore on payday, but I liked it
Like I said, you and that guy should hang out.
Anyone have any profound thoughts tonight?
I don’t know if this counts as profound, but I realized today that with my two-fingered typing style, I would be particularly unsuited to working in the field of closed captioning.

Stupid dogs.
They wake you up?

I see that you are in the mood for Lutheran theology.
Lemme get the handbook.
Aww, damnit.
OK, I’m ready. You want me to start with the Doctrine of Election or Eschatology?
Relax, you are safe.
Election and Eschatology (and the Doctrine of Creation, and the Doctrine of the Trinity) are things I do not understand. I don’t think anyone does, really. We just sort of wing it on the basis of what we are told.
Ah, I see. It’s kind of the same with our goat sacrifices.
Surprising that you would mention that, Sean.
Blood sacrifice is central to the Christian faith, and I get that part.
The other part I understand real well is my own sinful nature.
The term “scapegoat,” by the way, refers to the ancient Jewish practice of annually sacrificing a goat to appease God’s wrath and atone for the sins of His chosen people.
Christians believe that the sacrifice of Christ made this obsolete for all people.
Yeah, well, the Old Ones would disagree. And I’m really counting on them eating me last when they return…

Start smoking.
You need to taint your meat.

Didn’t I just hear a bunch of raves about a certain someone’s SMOKED brisket? Hm?
(By the by, I’m about sixteen years ahead of you on that advice.)
*sigh*
There is a big difference between Texas BBQ and smoked meat.
I served Texas BBQ brisket, using mesquite.
I also served wood-fired stone oven chickens, which is entirely different, even though a little smoke is involved.
Sorry for my Yankee ignorance, Bruce.
The best BBQ chef I ever met was this Jamaican guy who worked on a side street in San Antonio. He would only use pecan wood, because it imparts a relatively neutral smoky taste to the meat, which he figured would not detract from his selection of Jamaican sauces invented by him that you could select with your order of brisket, turkey, chicken, etc.
That guy was a genius.
Serious Jamaican hot sauces, by the way, are not for the faint of heart.
You gotta be prepared for your scalp to sweat and snot to run out of your nose.
Serious Thai food is the same way.
Also, Indian curries.
Actually, almost anywhere you go, the best food makes snot run out of your nose.
Sounds like my kinda sauce. I may be the pastiest whitey whose ancestors ever crawled out of a bog, but I likes the heat. There is pleasure in that kind of culinary pain.
On a related note, if you’ve handled a sliced habanero, make sure to wash your hands thoroughly before taking a piss. There is ABSOLUTELY NO PLEASURE in that kind of pain.

It’s chemical. I think the capsaicin in chilies, peppers and curries stimulates endorphin production in the brain or something.
In other words, hot foods are a natural and healthy way of doping.
FYI, in the blogroll at IB, there is a helpful link to Marie Sharp’s Belizean Hot Sauces.
It’s a wonder nobody was selling chili peppers in People’s Park back when I was in school. Coulda made a killing.
I also have a link to Jerry Baird’s Cowboy Seasonings.
That’s more about West Texas chuckwagon cooking.
I didn’t know Belize was known for hot sauces.
By the way, the habanero sauce that Tabasco makes is fucking pathetic. If you haven’t tried it, don’t bother.
Awright, gonna go have a beer and a couple smokes and watch something on the DVR.
I didn’t know Belize was known for hot sauces.
It’s a tiny country. Marie Sharp’s hot sauces are their most famous export, and virtually nobody knows that. Fans of this sauce are kind of a cult. The tourist industry in Belize is not well developed. It is sorta like Costa Rica before it got discovered. There are no big Hyatt or Marriott hotel properties there. It’s more like, Francis Ford Coppola owns a resort there. We like to stay at the Inn at Robert’s Grove, which attracts a lot of New York City Jews (we know Robert, he is a New York Jew with a Russian wife — both nice people who are seriously invested in helping the local economy).
In country, the sauce is ubiquitous. You can ask for it like salt and pepper. Seriously, you can sit down in any restaurant in Belize and ask for Marie Sharp’s, and they will give it to you.
The company’s dedication to fresh ingredients and quality control is impressive, for a third world operation. Marie built a corporate culture that deserves respect.
In order to get to Robert’s Grove, by the way, you should rent a 4WD vehicle at the Belize City airport.
The dirt road out to the Placencia peninsula is not good.
Michael, go to sleep.
Speaking of culinary pleasure, I just had breakfast with a twenty something hot blondie.
Is that wrong?
We’re just friends

I’m not a religious scholar, but I don’t believe that eating breakfast with someone is one of the Seven Deadly Sins. Unless you both really gorged yourselves in the process. That would be Gluttony, I guess. Some of the meals at Denny’s where you get multiple kinds of meat, eggs, hash browns, plus pancakes might count.
The Old Ones will not judge you by this standard, though, and would encourage such a meal, especially at such a reasonable price.

50 year old dudes and hawt 20 something blondes cannot just be friends….at least in the old pervs mind.

O.K. Show of Paws. How is surprised DinT likes Silk Hawaiian Shirts, and his reasons for wearing them? Yup…..ThoughtSo….
Uh-oh. It just occurred to me that Mrs MJ is not going to be a hot 20 something in 3 days. She’ s hitting the big 3-0. Anyone know a good, family lawyer?
I keed, I keed.

MJ, you are about to enter into the twenty year best of her life period. I hope you survive.
Morning.
Wakey wakey.
STupid dog was out chasing a deer last night.

Good morning!
New poat for your enjoyment. Careful of the speed – it’s faster than xbrad moving on Dolly.
Dick, I’m having two surgeries now. The first one I’ll just be in the hospital a couple of days at the most. When they reschedule the big one, I’ll email you and you can pick a day. Thanks!
